MYSTAGOGY | The Mother of God as "Eye" and "Earth" by His Eminence Metropolitan Hierotheos of Nafpaktos and Agiou Vlasiou Every feast of the Mother of God is a matter of joy for the entire Church ... The Panagia [Blessed Virgin] is the spiritual eye of the universe. Just as only to the eye light is given and thereby other members of the body receive its value, so only to the Panagia was the true light given, and through her, who is the eye of the universe, all members, that is all of mankind, was offered light.
