Default On light

Just a thought about light Ive had for awhile. I don't know if this would make sense unless you've had an experience where the light seems extra beautiful, I think they are called "white light experiences".

My thought is can the light be trusted? Maybe it is some kind of existential trap to get sucked into. Blinded by the light if you know what I mean? Lucifer being the 'light bearer' would be an example from spiritual literature pointing towards caution in this area. Who is to say that if there is a consciousness behind light, it automatically has your best intentions at heart?

I'm reminded of quote by one of the famous russian authors, either Tolstoy or Dostoevsky that went something like "Who is to say that what is beautiful is good?" I wonder how many religious fanatics had white light experiences on their way to murdering people?

Have any of you have had white light experiences and what are your thoughts on them?
