Letters on Occult Meditation - Letter VII - The Use of Color and Sound
The most important interaction exists between: The Love-Wisdom Ray and the Harmony Ray, as it does between the monadic plane and the buddhic. The Power Ray and that of Ceremonial Law, just as it does between the first and the seventh planes. The Activity or Adaptability Ray and that of Concrete Knowledge or Science, just as it does between the third plane of atma and the fifth plane of mind. Green and orange were allied in the first solar system, and continue their alliance here. I have opened up for all true students vast realms of thought. In the relationship between indigo, blue and yellow lies hid a secret. In the relationship between green, orange and red another is revealed. In the relationship between blue, red, and violet lies still another mystery. The student, who, by using his intuition, apprehends these three mysteries has found the key to the greater cycle and holds the key to evolutionary development. Remember, therefore, when studying the microcosm that the same relationship will be found, and will open the portal to the "Kingdom of God within." Red is for all apparent purposes one of the most difficult colors to consider. It ranks as undesirable. Why? Because it has been considered as the color of kama, or evil desire, and the picture of the dark and lurid reds in the emotional body of the undeveloped man rises ever to one's vision. Yet - at some distant time - red will be the basis of a solar system, and in the perfect merging of red, green and blue will come eventually the [221] completed work of the Logos and the consummation of the pure white light. The activity system was green. The love system is blue. The power system will be red. The result of merging red, blue, and green is - as you know - white, and the Logos will then have esoterically "washed His robes and made them white in the blood," just as the microcosm, in a lesser sense, does in process of evolution. Violet. In a curious way the violet Ray of Ceremonial Law or Order is a synthetic ray when manifested in the three worlds. Just as the synthetic Ray of Love and Wisdom is the synthesis of all the life forces, so in the three worlds the seventh ray synthesizes all that has to do with form. On the first plane, life in its purest, highest, undifferentiated synthetic aspect; on the seventh, plane, form in its densest, grossest, most differentiated aspect; one is summed up in the synthetic Ray of Love, whilst the other is worked upon by the seventh. A synthesis too is found in the fact that through the medium of violet the deva and human kingdoms can find a place of contact. Esoterically violet is white. In the blending of these two kingdoms the seven Heavenly Men attain perfection and completeness, and are esoterically considered to be white, the synonym of perfection. Another point of synthesis is the fact that through the dominance of this seventh ray comes a point of merging between the dense physical and the etheric bodies. This is of paramount importance in the macrocosm, and to the student of meditation. It is necessary to effect this merging and alignment before the transmission of the teaching to the dense physical brain can in any way be [222] considered accurate. It has a close bearing upon the alignment of the centers.
