In the thick darkness of the senses, the light of the soul emerges

When God comes, the soul awakes, but the senses sleep.

Midnight is the birth of great masters - Christ or Krishna, as the case may be. Midnight is the utter negation of sense activity and physical consciousness - everything pertaining to that state of affairs. It is in the thick darkness of the senses that the light of the soul emerges and birth takes place of eternity in time.

-Swami Krishnananda
