Allah (SWT) illuminates our souls through means that reach our inner most self. His light is Universal, so pure and so intense that grosser beings need a veil to take His rays: "His elect are absorbed in prayer and praise and deeds of love, unlike the children of darkness, struggling in depths profound of vanities false. All nature sings to the glory of Allah (SWT), and men are fraud and hypocrisy are but rebels in the Kingdom of Allah (SWT)." (A. Yusuf Ali Surah Nur 24: 35 57 Q). As Allah (SWT) Himself is the light of the heaven and the earth, it means that if one fails to recognise the light and hence his reality, he is blind.
