'realm oftruth') is a part of theWorld of Light considered to be the dwelling place of heavenly or ideal counterparts (dmuta).[1] It is similar toPlato's concept of thehyperuranion (realm of Forms),[2][3] which can be roughly described as a place inheaven where all ideas of real things are collected together.[4]
