Pranam Pl vide you tube analysis for the darkness and the perception in our vedic scriptures long ago.
1 https://youtu.be/2MCt3AxCL6I why the darkness as usual flix. What does the scriptures say? 1. 2 tad evārkasya arkatvam; kaṁ ha vā asmai bhavati, ya evam etad arkasya arkatvaṁ veda. ( Brahadaranyaka Upanishad) Originally, there was nothing. Death was enveloping everything. That is all the meaning, literally, of this sentence. In the beginning of things, what was there? *Nothing was there. *There was a devouring, all-consuming death principle, as it were; nothing else can we conceive*. In the Veda, also, there is this very same point reflected in the Nāsadīya Sūkta, which proclaims that, in the beginning, there was neither existence, nor non-existence.* What was there, originally? Darkness enveloped, as it were, because there was not the light of sensory perception. *What we call light is nothing but the capacity of the senses to perceive.* *When the senses cannot perceive, we say there is no light.* In pitch darkness, a kind of light exists; but the eyes are incapable of catching the ray of that light. That frequency is quite different from the one that is necessary for the eyes to perceive. So, when there was no possibility of external consciousness, when there was no sensory activity, when there was no distinction between the subject and the object, when the seer was not distinguishable from the seen, what was there? We can imagine for ourselves, what can be there. If we are not to perceive anything outside, what would be our condition? We cannot imagine it, because such a condition has never been seen; but it would be a veritable abolition and obliteration of all consciousness, obliteration of all consciousness, because every kind of consciousness is equivalent, in our case, with externality. Therefore, in the condition of non-objectivity which is the origin of things, the cosmic beginning of things, where the distinction between the seer and the seen was not marked, where the one commingled with the other, where one entered the other, where the two could not be distinguished, for reasons obvious, what was there? Nothing was there! *Naiveha* *kiṁcanāgra āsīt:* 3 In Yoga Vasishtam Saraswathi says in chap 3 that vastness of the space ,in spite of the brightest stars cause the darkness.
