This Tathagata is light. Light is none other than wisdom; wisdom is the form of light. Wisdom is, in addition, formless; hence, this Tathagata is the Buddha of inconceivable light.

This Tathagata fills the countless worlds in the ten quarters, and so is called the “Buddha of boundless light.” Further, Bodhisattva Vasubandhu has given the name, “Tathagata of unhindered light filling the ten quarters.”
