22 - The Colour Red
Oh Great Spirit of Life! Throw out the magnetic rays through which
all the manifesting love of Thy Being doth function. Bless Thy
children that all may feel that magnetic attraction turning their
lives toward Thee, and come to form more perfectly the pattern Thy
power is creating through the truth they receive from Thy Great
Spirit. Fill them with Thy protection, bathe them with Thy Spirit
in this quiet place that they may feel the attraction of Thy Being.
Thus bathed in Thy protection and power may they draw healing and
understanding from Thee and go forth into the outer world with Thy
peace, power and harmony.
We place within this room the sign and symbol of spirit in
the form of a cross enfolded in the circle of eternal love, and we
pray that this sign may be a symbol to all who come and all who go.

Beloved brothers and sisters, I have been asked to speak with you
concerning this matter of the colour of red or rose-pink which we
know as the colour of the stimulating and life-giving ray of power.
We have been asked what effect this colour has upon the being of the
individual and we would say that without this manifestation of
colour which is part of the whole radiance of light, you yourselves
would not exist in the physical body as you do at this time. The
harmony and health of your physical body depends upon the action of
this red ray which is largely emanated from the forces of earth.
Rays of light regulate the living substance of earth,
penetrating the ethers which surround your earth and the substance
of the earth itself, to be stored and imparted in the grass. This
ray is then emanated outward from the body of earth in a life-giving
force or stream of magnetism which men and women and living
creatures absorb day by day as their feet walk upon the earth and
their bodies are bathed in this stimulating and life-giving
magnetism. But when man lives in his mighty cities, creating
streets on the living body of the earth and stratas of substances
which do not allow the full force of this magnetic force to flow,
then the dwellers in the city are depleted of some of that magnetic
force which imparts a stimulating power to the living cells of the
body.
You will discover that many who live in your mighty cities
grow pale in the skin, weak in the muscles of the body and become
subject to varying forms of disease which do not affect man when he
lives in a more natural and congenial environment. Diseases become
active in man when the life-giving magnetic red force is not
absorbed through the soles of the feet. As it pours power
throughout the whole living structure of the body it is an expanding
and life-giving force which has its effect in the cells of the blood
stream of the body.
If this stimulating force is absent, the cells which should
be expanding and living become weakened and depleted and you will
say that the tissue of the body has become diseased. It would be
well if all who dwelt in city places would take time to place their
feet upon the living substance of the earth and stand with the
realisation that by thought they may absorb that full power. It is
to our knowledge that those who become sick and lose strength as
they lie on their couch of sickness unable to walk or move, when
their feet are once more placed upon the earth the magnetic force
rushing through their depleted structure will bring a state of
unsteadiness. They will say that they cannot stand, their head is
dizzy – they are unable to adjust themselves to the magnetic life
force which rushes through the body.
Think upon these things, beloved ones: those of you who
dwell in city places need to realise the importance which this
colour plays in your life. When a weakness of life force begins to
occur and by the weariness of your body you feel unwell, take the
bright red flowers which have their roots in the earth and gaze upon
them, or create some substance which emanates the rays of this
colour in sufficient force to awaken a greater intensity in the
vision of the eye and give the whole person a mental picture of the
stimulating power of red magnetic force. Men and women sometimes
wish to have brilliant colours near their body and in their
environment, but this colour of red should be used with
understanding and care.
Those who bring healing to others whose physical and etheric
bodies have become sick and depleted will often use this colour with
the understanding that its use will impart stimulation to the blood
circulation and restoration to the weakened tissues through the
etheric body. To our knowledge all the healers we use as mediums
have an abundance of this red magnetic life force within their
aura; for each healer must be a stimulator as well as one who can
impart rays of soothing and renewing life.
Do not say that this is an evil colour: it is the colour of
strength. It is true that it is the colour of war-like temperament
and a ray that will enflame the passions of men, but those of you
growing in wisdom and searching for an understanding of truth will
realise the importance of this colour. Of what use will it be if
you possess much knowledge but do not have the urge to share your
wisdom or develop the strong and militant spirit which will cause
you to impart your wisdom unto others? It is the red stimulating
magnetic ray which causes the prophet to set forth and share his
knowledge with others, to fight for that which he believes to be
true. Of what use is the healer’s force unless he feels the
stimulating urge to share this with those who are weaker and more
sick than himself? It is the red force surging through his being
which gives him the urge and desire to heal those who are sick.
Deep within the basis of man’s nature lies this
strengthening power; deep within the aura of man lies a coil of red
which is the substance of the life of man himself. It is only when
passion is not reigned by wisdom – when the red force is rampant –
that it becomes an evil power. Men and women who are filled with
vitality will receive undue stimulation if they use this red power
in their homes and surroundings.
I would say to you, Take it, blend it with other colours,
use it with wisdom and it will bring much good to you: when it is
blended with the gold of aspiration it brings much good. But you
can never escape from the power of this magnetic ray because it is
the very essence of the life force which affects the physical body
as you are active in this world today. There are other rays which
affect the etheric body and other colours which affect the spiritual
body, but the red magnetic force is the one which affects the
physical body itself and whilst you are incarnate within that body
then you are dependant upon the red force which governs the activity
of the physical body itself.
Question:
Would it not be good for doctors and healers to work together in
their efforts to alleviate the sufferings of humanity?
Ramadahn:
It would indeed, and I think you will find this comes to pass as the
work of spirit to earth is fulfilled. Attached to each hospital
will be a group of chosen healers whose task will be to supply
magnetism to the body of others so that broken bones can be rapidly
knitted together and torn flesh may swiftly heal. But this will
come in the future when more doctors of earth come to see that
disease lies deeper than the physical body. Then your hospitals
will only be for those suffering from accident, or that which has
occurred when the physical body is temporarily broken.
As this knowledge of spirit increases and grows amongst men
and women and they come to know themselves as spirits possessed of
various bodies, then man will learn to live in harmony with himself
and there will be no disease such as there is now. Know yourselves
for what you are – spirits possessed of bodies: bodies of mind,
emotion, ether and finally of flesh.
Live in such a fashion that when the body of flesh is
diseased you understand that its source must lie in the body of
ethers, so say to yourself: “I must go and breathe greater power
from the ethers of life; go and dance in the open upon the grass or
stay in quietness in the woodland where the ethers of life may
reinforce my body.” Then you will be filled with harmony; and the
hurt or thought of fear will become changed to thoughts of
tranquillity and understanding.
The emotional body should not be tossed from side to side by
desires and appetites which carry the physical body with it; the
controlling spirit should stand firm and say: “I will not allow
this desire to toss my body because I know it will bring depletion
to my vital forces, and I need these vital forces for the work I
do.” Or the spirit may say: “I will not indulge this appetite for
tasty food and overload my body with food it cannot completely
assimilate, because I have work to do.” In these things you see the
sign of a spirit controlling its bodies.
Realise yourselves as spirits incarnating as bodies and live
as you really are - spirits using bodies - and what a glorious life
you will lead during this incarnation on earth! Teach other beloved
ones to live in a like fashion that the body may be in harmony with
the mind and the mind in harmony with the emotions. Thus you will
find that the body grows strong and learns to live as a tool of the
spirit. Through these bodies your spirit will be able to manifest
its own characteristics of gentleness, strength, love, beauty,
self-expression, power and joy abundant. Men and women will see you
living in this fashion and envy your heritage of joy, they will seek
to follow your way of living that they too may have the same harmony
and happiness as you are expressing.
From soul to soul and from life to life the lesson shall be
passed: and as the good tidings are carried from one to another, as
souls learn to use their bodies with harmony and joy, then shall man
turn and look in the face of fellow man and see there the face of
his brother; and woman shall turn and look into the face of woman
and see the light of a sister soul. As they look and recognise each
other there will be no black and no white, no red or yellow races,
there shall be no rich and no poor, none who are high or low - but
only souls incarnating and expressing themselves in this journey of
earthly life. And there will be great peace as they recognise and
speak to each other.
As you send forth your rays in thought and interblend your
auras with each other, a sharing of your magnetic forces takes
place. This is something you should remember. The healer not only
applies the hands in healing but heals with the whole personality of
his or her being, emanating a magnetic stimulating love force
through every cell of the physical body and every part of the
spiritual personality too.
Remember there is always a great fan of palpitant colour
around yourself – a great radiating light streams from the centre of
your being. Do not close it to yourself with fear, do not shut it
down through despondency nor hold it to yourself to use in selfish
endeavour: remember you are a centre, and power must for ever
stream forth from that centre. If you desire to give words of
counsel or thoughts of wisdom, if you desire to give gifts to those
near you – then do so, beloved ones, that you may fulfil your
spiritual destiny and bring forth the true healing of spirit. Your
light shines forth when your aura is open and the quickening,
gleaming magnetism streams from you to the auras of people whom you
contact.
The one who learns to live in the knowledge that he or she
is a centre of power brings great blessing and peace to all around.
The whole of earth should be clothed with the beauty of such
personalities so that life-giving force may stream through the
ethers from the awakened hearts of those who know themselves to be
mediums; healing, quickening force will stream from their feet to
the earth and from their hands to stimulate the animal creation, and
greater power shall stream from their thoughts in wisdom and peace.
Beloved ones, set before yourselves the desire to become
lights to the world; desire to become centres of power and healers
of the beloveds and you shall indeed fulfil your spiritual destiny
in the sense that you are living in the realisation that you are
centres of power, centres of light, living souls who are part of the
Great Master Creator whose power is sent forth through you.
We lift you unto the Master Creator of All: may the Radiant
Centre be opened and light stream forth that the Glory of the Lord
of Light may be manifest upon the earth itself. May there be light
from every opened heart and radiance from every opened mind, may
there be life force from every living spirit each serving in their
own place.
May peace and power be here.
