I'm not quiet sure what you're after. The rgb in the
lightsource-brackets describes the Red, Green
and Blue componentes of the lightsource's color.
rgb <1,1,1> is white, rgb<0,0,0> is black.
The rgb in in the pigment-brackets belongs to
all torii, so changing that will change the color
of the torii.

Aside of that, it might be better to take the lightsource
out of the union and place it into the scene by itself,
unless you're after something specific.
