The Color of Friendship ~

[Old Herb Lady]

THE COLOR OF FRIENDSHIP

Once upon a time the colors of the world started to quarrel.
All claimed that they were the best. The most important. The most useful. The favorite.

Green said:
"Clearly I am the most important. I am the sign of life and of hope. I
was chosen for grass, trees and leaves. Without me, all animals would
die. Look over the countryside and you will see that I am in the
majority."

Blue interrupted:
"You only think about the earth, but consider the sky and the sea. It
is the water that is the basis of life and drawn up by the clouds from
the deep sea. The sky gives space and peace and serenity. Without my
peace, you would all be nothing."

Yellow chuckled:
"You are all so serious. I bring laughter, gaiety, and warmth into the
world. The sun is yellow, the moon is yellow, the stars are yellow.
Every time you look at a sunflower, the whole world starts to smile.
Without me there would be no fun."

Orange started next to blow her trumpet:
"I am the color of health and strength. I may be scarce, but I am
precious for I serve the needs of human life. I carry the most
important vitamins. Think of carrots, pumpkins, oranges, mangoes, and
papayas. I don't hang around all the time, but when I fill the sky at
sunrise or sunset, my beauty is so striking that no one gives another
thought to any of you."

Red could stand it no longer he shouted out:
"I am the ruler of all of you. I am blood - life's blood! I am the
color of danger and of bravery. I am willing to fight for a cause. I
bring fire into the blood. Without me, the earth would be as empty as
the moon. I am the color of passion and of love, the red rose, the
poinsettia and the poppy."

Purple rose up to his full height:
He was very tall and spoke with great pomp: "I am the color of royalty
and power. Kings, chiefs, and bishops have always chosen me for I am
the sign of authority and wisdom. People do not question me! They
listen and obey."

Finally Indigo spoke, much more quietly than all the others, but with
just as much determination:
"Think of me. I am the color of silence. You hardly notice me, but
without me you all become superficial. I represent thought and
reflection, twilight and deep water. You need me for balance and
contrast, for prayer and inner peace."

And so the colors went on boasting, each convinced of his or her own
superiority. Their quarreling became louder and louder. Suddenly there
was a startling flash of bright lightening thunder rolled and boomed.
Rain started to pour down relentlessly. The colors crouched down in
fear, drawing close to one another for comfort.

In the midst of the clamor, God began to speak:
"You foolish colors, fighting amongst yourselves, each trying to
dominate the rest. Don't you know that you were each made for a
special purpose, unique and different? Join hands with one another and
come to me."

Doing as they were told, the colors united and joined hands.

God continued:
"From now on, when it rains, each of you will stretch across the sky
in a great bow of color as a reminder that you can all live in peace.
The Rainbow is a sign of hope for tomorrow." And so, whenever a good
rain washes the world, and a Rainbow appears in the sky, let us
remember to appreciate one another.

So, what does this mean to you?

Is it just more race mixing propaganda or is there some less obvious meaning?

It depends on how cynical you are, I suppose.

I can see how someone could view it as race-mixing propaganda, but I don't see anywhere in that story about the colors gettin' it on. Do you? ;)

Maybe it's just about appreciating differences instead of competing with them. The colors don't have to be skin colors, they could represent any kind of difference.

There is truth to it, you know. You can't appreciate light without the dark. Perhaps the dark exists on purpose to enable us to appreciate the beauty of light. (Or vice-versa for you night owls).

I wasn't even thinking about race, I just thought it was beautiful. I guess the reader can see into it whatever they want.
Each color could represent members of a family, or members of any group . No ?

[StreetsOfGold]

What I get out of this is that God is light
1 John 1:5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

From one stream of light (through a prism) ALL the colours appear as in, he created all things and all things come from him.

Lots of people have blackness in their body of light, too, Eyebone.



Your aura can contain any one of the million color variations in the universe. So it is a mistake to squeeze aura colors meaning down into a ‘cut and dried’ color code. There are, however, some general themes which can help guide the interpretation process.
Keep in mind, aura colors meaning depends on the shades and also who the energy comes from.
These are some rough guidelines for interpreting aura colors...







Aura Colors Meaning


RED: lifeforce, survival, raw passion, anger, frustration,, determination, sense of importance, feeling overwhelmed by change


ORANGE: sensuality, physical pleasure, emotional self-expression, creativity, lacking reason, lacking self-discipline, health, vitality

YELLOW: mental alertness, analytical thought, happiness, optimism, child-like, ego driven, thinking at expense of feeling


GREEN: healing, peace, nurturing, new growth, fear, need for security, jealousy and envy, balance

BLUE: verbal communication, freethinking, relating to structure and organization, emphasis on business, male energies, sadness, possibilities

PURPLE: wisdom, authoritative, female energies, matriarchal, sense of superiority, controlling, imagination, intuition


BROWN: grounding, down to earth, practical, male energies, invalidating, emphasizing body and denying spirit, feeling worth-less


BLACK: issues relating to death, hatred, lack of forgiveness, dark intentions, needing compassion for self


PINK: self-love, tenderness, female energies, , emphasis on physical appearances, being 'nice' at expense of being 'real'

WHITE (CLOUDY): New Age or religious energy, lacking consciousness, a cover-up, denial, being 'good' at expense of being 'whole'


WHITE (CLEAR LIGHT): very high spiritual vibration, godly, divine, inspiration, seeing spiritual big picture, compassionate


GOLD: high spiritual vibration, integrity, respect, freedom, clearseeing, integrating spirit and body, creating as spirit

[Old Herb Lady]

Don't be afraid of the colors of light. Let them warm you, fill you with His Love.
Let the love & Light radiate through you everywhere you go. Bask in it.
Get grounded in it. Let the beautiful rainbow in the sky remind you of what beauty there is in life,
invite His Love & Light. Don't be afraid.

The Bible refers to the aura many times. For example the bright light about Moses when he received the Ten Commandments or the transfiguration of Jesus when his clothing was said to have shined so brightly.

The aura is also shown in different religious art of ancient and modern times. How many pictures have you seen of Jesus, Mary, or the early apostles with a halo or a light about them?

After some study by Baron Charles Von Reichenbach in 1848 the British Society of Psychical Research investigated the phenomena. It was concluded that that an 'unexplained luminosity resembling phosphorescence, (was observed) in the region immediately around the magnetic poles and visible only to certain individuals'.

A somewhat negative conclusion was drawn by F.W. Myers in that he recorded 'The writers in these proceedings have never consented to set them aside as illusory, though we have thus far found them almost impossible to repeat'. Our old nemesis 'the repeatability factor' once again shows itself.


For many years after this nothing was said about the aura and much doubt to its actual existence was prevalent. Then in 1911 a book was published by Dr. Walter J. Kilner entitled 'The Human Aura' and in it was inclosed a 'dicyanin screen' which made the aura visible to human eye sight.
With this screen Kilner felt that ninety-five percent of people could view the human aura. Although this screen was of insurmountable value in proving the existence of the aura (seeing is believing) Kilner leaned more heavily toward the use of the aura in diagnosing diseases of the human body. It was Kilner who termed the aura 'nerve-ether'.

In 1935 Semyon, quite by accident, found that the aura could be photographed. While repairing some medical equipment used in high voltage high frequency electrical equipment he noticed that the colour between a glass electrode and the human skin changed abruptly.

He then attempted to photograph the discharge without the use of a camera by placing his fingers on the film. This resulted in a serious burn but a remarkable picture of his hand was obtained. This was the beginning of Kirlian photography.

If we would like to learn more about Kirilian photography we may like to visit the Kirlian Research Network website.



Now the human aura could be seen by clairvoyants, seen by 95% of people using the dicanin screen, and could be photographed. This latest turn of events of course led to many different kinds of other experiments. Among them the treatment of disease in plants and even finding diseased crops before the disease manifested itself.

Kirlian's studies were so remarkable that Dr. Fedorov gave a favourable report to the government of the U.S.S.R. leading to the Government providing the Kirlian's with a home and a laboratory for continued research.

Many other remarkable discoveries came about as a result of this research. Among them it was found that their were waves of energy whirling about us appearing like fireballs. These fireballs could be increased or decreased by various causes.

It was also found that a healer could be photographed transferring energy to the patient. Kirlian has already added greatly to our study of the aura but time will only tell how much importance are his studies to medical research.



In 1920 and 1930, Gurvitch, a Russian histologist, stated that all living cells produced an invisible radiation. It was not until 1967 that investigations of any substance were resumed duplicating the results of Gurvitch. It was concluded that cells did produce an invisible radiation and were termed as electro magnetic signals of the ultra-violet wavelength.
Later in 1972 Dr. B. Tarusov of Moscow University found that these light patterns related to the onset of various pathological conditions. Their study evolved from humans later to plant life. About this time Dr. Thelma Moss of U.C.L.A. was studying the energy field surrounding the body and plants. Using Kirlian photography she observed the transfer of energy from healer to patient and observed the healers diminished aura especially around the fingertips.

Many are the names of investigators that have examined and proven the existence and nature of the aura. The aura has been prevalent in our Spiritualist teachings since its inception. Termed as the etheric body by most Spiritualists it is one and the same.




Professor Denton, through his studies, has found that all living things swim in a sea of aura. Through its universal presence it hints at a world of spirit not in the range of our perception.

Spiritualists recognize that light is dual in its nature and that thought is the light of spirit and is the basis of all realization and consciousness. That which is within is expressed without. The magnetic field surrounding all living objects is manifested as the aura.

The universe is vibrating between all colours of the spectrum of light. Then it is only natural that the human body is vibrating within that same spectrum.

THE LIGHT IN THE DARKNESS




In every one of us a Light burns

A Light that pushes us to be better than what we are

A Light that pushes us towards perfection

The Light is the cause of happiness, love, and bliss

The Light is only contrasted by the Darkness

A Darkness which resides within each of us

The Darkness brings us down

And it seeks to extinguish the Light

The Darkness causes hatred, envy, and chaos

Where the Light is success, the Darkness is failure

Where the Light is freedom, the Darkness is imprisonment

Where the Light is satisfaction, the Darkness is remorse

Where the Light is forgiveness, the Darkness is blame

Where the Light is good, the Darkness is evil

Where the Light is God, the Darkness is Satan

And where the Light is serenity, the Darkness is frustration

And inside each of us the battle between Light and Darkness rages

Everything in life breathes both the Light and the Dark

Every action and every reaction in life is ruled by this clash

Every injustice and every act of morality

Every feeling of guilt and every sense of forgiveness

Both the Light and Darkness resides in each of us

The question is: Which are you allowing to control your life?

Who knew 'Adult Indigo" could be much like 'Libertarian Doomer'?

Are You an Adult Indigo? (http://www.sunfell.com/adult.htm)

They did not JUST start coming in now, the numbers have just been increasing more and more until there are so many we finally can not ignore them. Yeay!!!

[Awoke]

So, what does this mean to you?

Is it just more race mixing propaganda or is there some less obvious meaning?

Just because the colors are organized in a rainbow doesn't mean the colors are mixing together. In fact they are quite distinct from each other.

Now, as to the meaning of the Rainbow that the fags have highjacked:





[11] (http://drbo.org/x/d?b=drb&bk=1&ch=9&l=11#x) I will establish my covenant with you, and all flesh shall be no more destroyed with the waters of a flood, neither shall there be from henceforth a flood to waste the earth.
[12] (http://drbo.org/x/d?b=drb&bk=1&ch=9&l=12#x) And God said: This is the sign of the covenant which I give between me and you, and to every living soul that is with you, for perpetual generations.
[13] (http://drbo.org/x/d?b=drb&bk=1&ch=9&l=13#x) I will set my bow in the clouds, and it shall be the sign of a covenant between me, and between the earth.
[14] (http://drbo.org/x/d?b=drb&bk=1&ch=9&l=14#x) And when I shall cover the sky with clouds, my bow shall appear in the clouds:
[15] (http://drbo.org/x/d?b=drb&bk=1&ch=9&l=15#x) And I will remember my covenant with you, and with every living soul that beareth flesh: and there shall no more be waters of a flood to destroy all flesh.
[16] (http://drbo.org/x/d?b=drb&bk=1&ch=9&l=16#x) And the bow shall be in the clouds, and I shall see it, and shall remember the everlasting covenant, that was made between God and every living soul of all flesh which is upon the earth.

[SLV^GLD]

Just because the colors are organized in a rainbow doesn't mean the colors are mixing together. In fact they are quite distinct from each other.


Yes, rainbows are the visible result of refraction. That is each wavelength becoming separated from the unified whole. It is the exact opposite of mixing.

this has been one of the dumber conversations I've read here in a while.
