It doesn't create shadows to hide the truth... It reveals some of the unknowns. It can't shed light on that which is behind another object.
For example... It is a moonless night, (everything is in a shroud of darkness). I take some spotlights to light up a building. It would in a manner create a shadow, but remember it is the object the light is hitting that creates the shadow, not the light... So the truth is the object is what is truly hiding the truth.

Well, Light can reveal the truth and it can cast shadows, but these shadows are simply the area blocked from a PHYSICAL obstruction, say, a parent that hides the truth from a child. Also, this is only from one source point of light. If there are multiple 'sources' then the shadows become much harder to cast. THIS IS A BASIC PRINCIPLE OF TRUTH.

If all of creation comes from God, Allah, The Creator, whatever you choose to name the revealer of Light; do not forget that if ALL comes from the this One, then Shadows also come from the same source. The only way to know Light is if you also know Shadows. Whatever choices you make will determine whether you are in Light or Shadow. Unskillful choices will keep you in the Shadows. The skilfull choices you make will keep you in the Light more and more. I believe that questioning the creation of shadows is a little like blaming the Creator, and that we are here to make our own choices.

Light is a flux of particles which acts as a mechanism to determine the shape of mass structures they collide with.
The particles of light are micromasses. They are not visible masses.There is no other existing visible mechanism which can shadow a light particle;that is the reason we can never see the shape and size of light micromasses.
Light eneables us to perceive our surrounding with our eyes. However we are fallible as humans we have limitations on what we see. We are blinded many times by false philosophies that keeps us away from the truth of reality.
Reality is real and can only be personally experienced.

The light that reveals the truth creates shadows...that is true. Shadow is the other side of truth, it doesn't hide it, it it makes it filmy, and easy to overlook. It is only by noticing the shadow that we can learn to seek the light.

Light does not create shadows, those things that obstruct the light/truth are responsible for the shadows.

light does not create shadows; shadows are created when something comes in the path of light. So, the objects combined with the light create shadows; not the light alone.

Truth is light.
Truth will shine on any other thought or idea. Some ideas are like the truth and are like glass or plastic that you can see through so it will not create shadows.
But any idea or thought that is of it's own accord and is not like the truth is the object that will hide the truth and create the shadows.

The true light who came into the world, Jesus Christ, does not cast any shadow but exposed them. He came to reveal the truth
"..that the light has come into the world and MEN LOVED DARKNESS rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone practicing evil hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should be exposed”- John 3:18-20.

Star question... thank you.
Light is like knowledge that reveals the truth. However, often knowledge can also create pride and arrogance which are the shadows that can prevent further growth and spread of knowledge.
