The White Light, also known as The Light of Creation, was a force created eons ago, presumably at the birth of life in the universe. The White Light comprised the 7 Lights of emotion; Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo, and Violet. The White Light was presumably created along with sentient life, as The Guardians noted that sentient life inadvertently created "the ultimate power" through their emotions. Around about this time, The Black made its first bid for dominance of the universe by eradicating life, but was stopped by the White Light. Some time after this, the White Light splintered into the seven colour concepts of the Emotional Electromagnetic Spectrum.
Gathering of the Light
The White Light either gave birth to, or originated from, the Life Entity. At some point during the very beginning of their assension to the title of Guardians of the Universe, the Maltusians who became the Oans discovered and sealed away the Entity to protect it from being exploited or harmed, as they understood that the Entity was symbiotically connected to every living being. They buried it in the confines of the Earth, the keystone of the Multiverse, and the original planet of life in the universe. At the same time, they used the opportunity to claim that Maltus in fact spawned the first life, and claimed their authority as the Guardians from that. (It is unknown whether this means that sentient life began on earth first or not, though it is more likely that the Maltusians were, and that the Earth was merely the birth place of organisms).
The Green Light of the White Light was harnessed by the Guardians of the Universe, and was dubbed "The Glow". It formed the emotional entity Ion. The Yellow Light formed the entity Parallax, which was imprisoned by the Guardians in a box, and later the Green Lantern Central Power Battery. It was later harnessed by Sinestro and The Anti-Monitor to form the Sinestro Corps. The Orange Light was presumably contained by the Guardians, but was found and harnessed by Larfleeze during the Guardians' use of the Manhunters. The Violet Light was forged into crystal known as the Star Sapphire and the Predator Entity, then found and used by the Zamarons. The Indigo Light is currently under the control of Indigo-1 and her Indigo Tribe. The Blue Light was found by Ganthet and Sayd. Finally, the Red Light was harnessed by Atrocitus of the 5 Inversions.
