Title

The album's title is taken from a line in The Mummery Book by Lynch's spiritual teacher, Adi Da Samraj: "Evelyn slapped Raymond on the back with a laugh. 'You must be starved, old friend. Come into my apartments, and we'll suffer through a deep breakfast of pure sunlight.'" The sentence is quoted in the album's liner notes.
