	The Path of Light is at once intensely personal and ~~self lessly~~ altruistic. This seeming contradiction vanishes through understanding its purpose. Survival demands that the lightspeakers keep their devotion hidden, for enemies are everywhere—and those enemies can sometimes sense the light within. Yet spreading the Light demands that the priests do good works, understand their neighbors, and encourage more such behavior. The lightspeakers are very humble in this duty, and this is not only because being noticed can mean death.		The Path of Light is at once intensely personal and selflessly altruistic.

	The '''Path of Light''' is a mystery religion from the [[Eberron]] setting of [[Dungeons & Dragons]], and is the native religion of the [[Kalashtar]], inextricably linked with their history and culture. It serves as a goodly counterpart to the [[Path of Inspiration]], with a focus on spiritual growth, enlightenment and positivity that will ultimately cause a rebirth of the [[Quori]] as positive dream spirits, and not the living nightmares that they are now. As such, they worship ''il-Yannah'', the benevolent future incarnation of ''il-Lashtavar'', the dark-natured current incarnation of the heart of [Dal Quor]]. A fairly minor faith, the Path of Light was first fleshed out in the Eberron splatbook "Faiths of Eberron".

	Whilst predominantly a [[kalashtar]] faith, it is generally respected by all races in Adar, the center of rebellion against the stifling [[quori]]-created culture that rules most of Sarlona. The faithful of this religion are known as ''lightbringers'' (or ''yannahsur'' in the quori tongue) and spend much of their time meditating and taking small but positive actions to reinforce the Light. Adventuring or militant members of the faith, those who dedicate themselves to actively battling the [[Path of Inspiration]], are called ''shadow watchers'' (''sheshantol''). Full-fledged priests are known as ''lightspeakers'' (''yannahilath''), and most of these are not true [[cleric]]s, but instead [[psionics]]-based classes with a religious bent. Many devotees to the Path of Light carry a small quartz crystal, usually on a fine chain about the neck. Among psions, this often doubles as a psicrystal. The priests bear distinctive, swooping headbands studded with crystals, which are often power crystals made from Siberys shards, and might have other crystalline adornments on their clothing. These visible tokens of the Light are openly displayed only among kalashtar or within a protected area such as Adar. Followers who mingle with nonbelievers take great care to blend in, even as they promote the Light, lest they be noticed and taken by the agents of the Dreaming Dark.
