The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.When we gaze out upon the world through the lens of desire, the world is distorted. When we see with our heart-mind, we understand our connection to all things.
~ King James version ~
Look at this window: it is nothing but a hole in the wall, but because of it the whole room is full of light. So when the faculties are empty, the heart is full of light.
~ from Chapter 4 of the Zhuangzi ~
