What is amazing…wax is made by bees that have never seen the light, but they have been nourished by light: Pollen is, so to speak, materialized light. And they have the ability to free the light they have ingested, making snow-white wax. It is really a big wonder. And then Man can collect this wax, make candles and—in the dark period of the year, towards Christmas—he can free the light again from the wax in the bee.
