Color is the Essence of Life
what sets
man apart from other species
is the extent of capacity of his
achievements striving to excel
forms the significant part of everyone’s
efforts
to those who like myself found it
difficult
or beyond the boundary of possibility at
one time
let me assure you there is a method
by which one’s abilities could be
enhanced the basic principle
underlying this is to connect with the
primal
creative energies of nature sounds
impossible
not at all it all goes back to creation
the mind is connected with creation
you simply have to become aware of it
the surest way to connect to creative
energies
is through color
concentrate on the beauty of color its
intensity
its brilliance imbibe it look at flowers
trees people and detect the color
within you are then drawing
nature and natural energies into you
you will slowly increase your perception
and thereby increase the capacity of
your cells
after a time you will find that your
ability in your specific field of work
has increased
we are all familiar with the feeling of
joy we experience when we wake up in the
morning
to a bright day and see the sun shining
brightly through the window
this gives us a spurt of energy what is
responsible for this light and what is
light
the components of light are colors
color is the essence of life
to understand that we must first
understand the power of color
and its origin two primal
energies emerged from the sport of
creation
resonance and effulgence
vibration and vibrance
or in simple words sound and light
which are the basis of all manifestation
from these emanated the electromagnetic
force
the weak and strong force the
gravitational force
as we know today from scientific data
music as of sound is also means of
stress relief but i am dealing with the
visual means that is light as of
sight which is even more effective for
seeing is believing light is made of
colors
the gamma rays that were caused to be
formed from the electromagnetic force
contains within it the womb of all color
in the form of the spectrum which
occupies a tiny part of its giant
energy it consists of the seven
colors of the rainbow violet
indigo blue green yellow orange red
all formed from the amalgamation of the
three primal colors blue yellow red
cobalt’s blue cadmium yellow vermilion
in the language of the palette
this is responsible for light from these
colors
came everything in creation starting
from
particles to planets to people there is
visible proof that colors
form the intrinsic components of light
fire is the tangible representation of
light
and you can see the proof that light
means
color if you look closely at a candle
flame
you will see the base is blue the middle
is yellow
the tip is red the three
primal colors of creation from which
everything originated and in the
language of the palette
this is cobalt blue cadmium yellow
vermilion myriads of hues who are born
from these three primal hues
everything in the universe has these
myriads of colors
and the intensity of shades
in each object is what distinguishes
each from the other we are formed of
all the colors of the universe and
therefore
connected to the universal energy
through these same colors
that form everything in it so drawing
energy through these very same colors
that we
are made up of is the surest and the
best way
to change our minds in order to
increase our abilities
now let us see how we can do this there
is a method
the first step is to increase our
perception of colors
how do we do that let me first show you
this enlarged image of
fruits look at the apple
what color do you see very obvious red
but look closer you will see many more
shades
that you will be able to distinguish a
lot many more
colors as well there is purple there
is yellow there are different shades of
red
there is blue towards the edges
you will find a numerous
amount of shades but at first you may
not be able to make it out
the more you look the more you will be
able to perceive
it may not be easy at first to detect
all these shades
you may have to look at it for five
minutes every day for three days
or more but the very effort that you are
making
is getting you closer and closer to
color
even if you cannot see many of them this
is strengthening the neurons of your
brain
and you are feeling less heavy which
means
layers of stress are peeling off
try looking at objects to detect as many
colors as you can
for a few minutes every day before you
start
work and you will find you can perform
with a clearer mind
now i want you to imagine something
you have a date and you have set up
this fabulous restaurant with beautiful
lights
beautiful cutlery fabulous food and you
are waiting for your date
your date comes in and you sit down to
this
absolutely amazing menu that has been
provided
with all the decorations candles
everything
and finally you come to the end of the
meal
and you want to pay your date a very
lovely compliment what do you say you
say
my dear what an amazing combination
of cobalt blue cadmium yellow vermilion
you
are of course there and then the date
will
end perhaps but you may be sure
you have voiced
the ultimate complement the most
superlative complement
in this universe than which there can be
no other we are not the only ones in
this planet
to bond with colors animals too have
that ability
in fact some of them are sharper than us
for example the mantis shrimp the
botanical name of it is tomato poda
it has 12 color receptors while human
beings have only three
it can perceive many more shades to a
rainbow
than we can and look at these color
studies painted
by elephants and dolphins they are from
the saint louis zoo
and here is a sea squid it’s called the
strawberry squid
it is literally a mass of colors
when light shines on its body it
reflects these
innumerous number of shades
amazingly color is connected to all the
senses
in other words we can feel taste smell
here as we see colors if you look at the
these images on the slides you will see
the redness the luscious
transparency of the fruits and
you look at them the more you look at
these fruits
the more you will be able to taste them
in your mind
and now you look at this fabric this
glossy fabric of satin
you can actually feel because of the
colors
that have brought out the shades of this
the texture of the fabric
similarly the image of the woman
laughing
if you concentrate on her face and see
the shades
around her face her smile the sparkle in
her eyes
and the manner in which she’s smiling
through the shades you can hear her
laughter
in your mind and also the images of the
roses
if you look at them the dew drops on the
petals
you can feel their fragrance in your
mind
so this gives you a vivid sense
of all the senses through color
you can see feel smell hear through
color
so when you connect with color all your
senses are charged energized
and rejuvenated metaphorically speaking
you are now ready to conquer the world
in other words you are geared up for
maximum achievement
through color this is your new
age enlightenment
