Thought Therapy Through Colour Part 3
With those thoughts from the distant past that still hurt you, still cause bile when you think of them, still make you upset, still move you to tears - bring them out of the shadows, put them into a spotlight in front of you mentally (all this is an exercise of the imagination of course) and bathe them with silver. If there is a person from your past that in your mental field (not in actuality) still causes you pain, place an image of that person living and breathing within the spotlight that you place in front of you and see them turning to silver. But see them turning to silver as they were at that time and not as they are now (as you do not wish to harm them), see them turn to silver and see the silver fade away. Do that with places, with things that have been said, words that still wound that you will replay in your mind - turn them to silver. See the words as words in front of you (one word at a time if like) or relive the experience of that row, of that upset, and see the whole scene turn to silver and then see the silver fade away.
Many people today wish to be free of thought-patterns that they no longer need or want but only get so far. You need potent God-Energy in order to change things permanently. So I hope that people who read this will try to use colour in a different way.
If it takes a few days for you to feel comfortable with having banished or changed a thought-pattern, it is a great idea to surround yourself with the colour consciously that you are applying to the thoughts mentally for the time that you are applying that colour - in other words wear a yellow jumper or a green jumper or sit in a room that has a colour relevant to the one that you are treating your thoughts with. Also if you feel you cannot meditate successfully with your eyes closed then put a bowl of fruit of the relevant colour or an object of the relevant colour in front of you and concentrate on that as you also concentrate on the situation that you wish to change.
There are so many things in the locker, in the trunk, of a person's mind and so many things that are stored - much as in your houses you might go to a cupboard and open it and discover things that you had put away years ago and had forgotten about and no longer knew that you owned. And it is these things in the mental capacity that cause distress that slow down the ability of the individual to grow and 'colour' the way that you view the world. Your colours, as you view the world, should be fresh and clean and of today and full of potential and possibilities but they can't be and are muddied if your thoughts are coloured from the past, from things that you have tried to let go of but haven't been able to.
So please try this colour exercise, applying it to your thoughts in meditation, in quiet times. Learn to live more with colour as colour is important; it changes your mood, it changes your outlook.
