High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Inner Light is a concept which many Quakers, members of the Religious Society of Friends, use to express their conscience, faith and beliefs. Each Quaker has a different idea of what they mean by "inner light", and this also varies internationally between Yearly Meetings, but the idea is often taken to refer to God`s presence within a person, and to a direct and personal experience of God. Quakers believe that God speaks to everyone, and that in order to hear God`s voice, it helps to be still and actively listen for it.
