Episode 64 - The Final Moments, of the Comedy. Canto 30-33.

After a long journey through the worlds of the afterlife, symbolic of human nature and experience, Dante now reaches the Empyrean - the spiritual experience beyond time and space, filled with pure light, and being in the Mind of God. He sees the White Rose (the Divine Love) and is accompanied by the mystic St. Bernard - as Beatrice takes her place in her home on the third row of the White Rose, and Dante needs mystic contemplation for his final vision. After receiving the Grace from Mary after a deep prayer, his powers expands to the point where he finally sees right into the center of the Light and describes: I saw the Great Light shine into three circles in three clear colors bound in one same space; the first seemed to reflect the next like rainbow on rainbow, and the third was like a flame equally breathed forth by the other two. C33, v. 116-120. And as his highest wish of insight is then granted, he feels himself impelled and moved forward, by the Love that moves the sun and the other stars. C33, v. 145.
