There are four stages of light. In stages one, two and three the sun is not seen due to the sanskaras of darkness. But in the human state it is morning and the light of the sun is meant to be seen. However, due to the clouds of human sanskaras it is hidden.

So what should be done? The clouds should be driven away. But how? For the clouds to be driven away, burn up your sanskaras — think of me always, love me! And to think of me you must not think of yourself ever!
