Now the influence begins to flow – because first the lights must be repaired in order to be able to carry out their functions, and only afterwards do they actually execute them. The function of the lights is to send an ever-renewed flow of influence. For they are always the same lights: it is the influence they channel that is renewed.

This is called making a vessel.
