Quest for Truth

Dressed in jewels and best of silken attires, awaiting their willful seekers is the truth. Closed rooms - no light since centuries. Many have entered and yet very rarely did anyone found. Do not seek without a lamp, it is futile. Countless have been blinded in this, darkness. What you consider a lamp is really a brilliant sun converting dark night into a blazing day- the day of truth. Dive deep, find your lamp. For it is in you. It is the vanguard of this eternal saga.

It's like a cross between Plato's "Allegory of the Cave" and the metaphor of pthe philosophical digging of the truth with just a shovel exploring the mysticism of the universe. You're playing with fine chemicals to create something authentic without the lab work. Nice!
