At Christmas, cultures across the world speak of light returning. This is not theology or astronomy. It is about survival, hope, and responsibility in hard times.
In this video, I explore how wisdom traditions — Christian, Jewish, Buddhist, Islamic, and Indigenous — understand light as care, presence, and justice. And why modern capitalism inverts that meaning, treating wealth as light and poverty as darkness.
This is the Christmas story without preaching — and with a question we cannot avoid as 2026 approaches: who do we illuminate, and who do we leave unseen?
