Eugene starts with a simple drawing of an earthenware oil lamp containing olive oil and a wick. The olive oil symbolises ‘life-force’ (love). All life is love. He gives the example of petrol, a fuel created by the ‘love-life’ of millions of minute, marine animals over millennia. ‘Life’ in English = ‘Lieben’ in German, ‘to love.’ They share the same root. The more we love the more we live. ‘God is Love’ is a metaphysically accurate statement. Olive oil was used for thousands of years as a means of light.
Life and love are both necessarily generous, so olive oil is the precipitation of infinite love, which has no edges. For this love to be expressed it must be restrained. “Expression is ‘out-pressing.” The lamp is such a restraint.

The lamp symbolises the human being. Our physical body is a container, just like the lamp. We are precipitated by the field of intelligent power “in order to enclose this mysterious fluid, absolutely plastic power of life, which is love.” In the lamp is a ‘wick’ (a word still used in the north of England to mean ‘quick’.) The wick represents the ego-consciousness, our sense of ‘I’dentity. By means of this wick, we raise the oil and burn it at a certain rate. Without the wick, the oil would ignite and be gone very quickly. In the same way, our ego allows us to control the flow of our love/life. It allows us to take from and express the love/life within us. The flame represents our consciousness, our intelligence, in the light it gives, and also our desire-life in its heat. The wick burns by combustion, the same process that goes on inside our bodies in the act of breathing and in digestion of food. So in our bodies we have the love (oil), we have consciousness (light), and we have desire (heat). The ‘wick’ of our ego is the means of controlling the process. Without this control, our light and heat would be returned to the field prematurely.
