Lights and Colors

Light

Light is an electromagnetic energy. From a scientific standpoint, a photon is the basic unit of light. Light can travel through space and any transparent object without the use of a medium. Light, in fact, is a mix of assorted vibrations and wavelengths. Wavelengths are sensed on the eye-screen (iris), sending a signal through to the brain realizing color.

According to Dr. Fritz Albert Popp, biophysicist, “we know today that man is essentially a being of light, and the modern science of photobiology is presently proving this. In terms of healing, the implications are immense. We now know, for example, light can initiate, or arrest, cascade-like reactions in the cells, and that genetic cellular damage can be virtually repaired, within hours, by faint beams of light. We are still on the threshold of fully understanding the complex relationship between light and life, but we can now say, emphatically, that the function of our entire metabolism is dependent on light.”

This research today in biophysics indicates that light is the language of the cells. According to Jacob Liberman, O.D., PhD, in his book, Light: Medicine of the Future,

“In considering the role light plays in influencing health, it is important to initially look at the constituents of sunlight as well as the kinds of artificial light to which we are exposed in our daily lives.”

Light is composed of waves of radiant energy. It is measured in wavelengths, the distances between consecutive wave crests. Visible light ranges from 400 to 700 nanometers (nm) in wavelength. Sunlight, which contains all the different wavelengths, provides the total electromagnetic spectrum under which all life on the planet has evolved.

Until 1879, when Edison perfected the light bulb, people spent most of their time outdoors and received adequate daily doses of natural sunlight. Although Edison’s invention was a quantum leap in technology, it simultaneously created a situation in which people lost respect for nature’s daily light and dark cycle. With the growing availability of the light bulb, life became largely an indoor event, which drastically reduced the amount of time to which people exposed themselves to the full spectrum of light. The Nobel Prize winner and the explorer of Vitamin C, Albert Szent-Gyorgyi, acknowledged that the eating and consumption of various kinds of food by humans and other living beings, pertains to the accumulation, utilization as well as movement of the energy generated by light. Jacob Liberman, O.D., PhD, in his book Light – Medicine of the Future, also quoted Albert saying,

“Szent-Gyorgyi discovered that many enzymes and hormones involved in processing this energy are colored and very sensitive to light. In fact when stimulate by these selected colors’ light, these enzymes and hormones undergo molecular changes frequently, which alter their original colors. These light-induced changes significantly affect the power of these enzymes and hormones to cause dynamic reactions within the body. It also demonstrates that the apparent color of something might be a strong indicator of its molecular structure.”

Dr. Liberman further explains,

The light striking the body can literally alter the basic biological functions involved in processing the body’s fuel, which powers our lives. If color and light have such a powerful effect on us, what would be the effect of living under light, that is significantly different from sunlight?”

The implications are eye opening. Light, natural light, is an essential part of our being. Therefore all of the components of that light must also be integral to our well being.

Why can colors be seen?

Color is an attribute of light that is made up with darkness. If the color of an object is black, we can only see it because it absorbs all the colors within. A white object can be seen because it reflects all the rays/waves of light. We can only see the color red, when an object absorbs all the colors except for red. This is also the case for any other color. What are colors? How do they develop? What is the basic color? None of these questions have righfully been answered yet. Some describe the total number of basic colors as four, some three, some consider black the very basic color.

The Spectrum of Color (Taif):

In 1666, Sir Isaac Newton presented the law of gravity and the theory of colors. According to his theory, when sunlight passes through a prism, it disperses into those colors existing in the sunlight that are consistent with their particular intensities, Therefore the sunlight becomes viewable to us in seven different colored rays. Every existing color in the world is developed from the shades of these seven basic colors. What becomes apparent out of the separation of colors is a rainbow; in spiritual sciences, the spectrum is termed “Taif”. The colors of this spectrum are proportionate to the wavelengths of those colors. The Taif consists of seven colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet. Our eyes are more sensitive to the colors yellow and green. The impact of sunrays over the colors yellow and green is more intense. The colors, present in Taif, are called a “visible spectrum. “The rays (waves) with a wavelength of 380 nm or less (being the wavelength of violet) cannot be seen, such as ultra violet rays, X-rays, and gamma rays. Similarly rays with wavelengths of 780 nm or more cannot be seen, such as microwaves, radio waves and infrared rays. Not everyone is able

to see colors other than seven colors in the visible spectrum.

Colors and Eyesight System:

There are several theories as to how we can see colors, but the most commonly accepted conventional one was presented by the physicist Young and anatomist Helm-Holtz, later called the Young Helm-Holtz Theory. By the individual and combined activities of red, green and blue-violet, the receptors produce the perception of all visible hues. Both of the scientists were convinced that three colors could adequately form a combination of all other shades. According to this theory, there are three types of cones on the eye-screen (retina) that are individually sensitive to the wavelengths of red, green and blue-violet.

The slightest stroke of the wavelength for any of these three colors on our brain’s screen activates that particular cone, enabling us to see that specific color, whereas all the other colors can be seen when any two or all three cones are activated. For instance, the wavelength of violet activates those two cones that are sensitive to red and blue and the activation of these two cones facilitates the viewing of the color violet.

Interestingly, color may not actually have to be “seen” to have an affect! An independent study earlier in 1932 showed that visible wavelengths of light may have a direct effect on the endocrine system as they are able to reach the pineal and pituitary glands in the brain through neurochemical channels that operate independently of the optic nerve.

The Spiritual Theory of Color:

The great Spiritual Scientist Mr. Muhammad Azeem states, “Humans have so far discovered about sixty (60) different colors, but only those with a vivid inight (the power of the third eye) can differentiate one from the other.” “The object that the eyesight can recognize, we humans name it color, light, jewels or water. When we place our gaze towards space, our eyesight is deflected back to the screen f our brain with an influence which displays the color blue. After rainfall, when the environment is transparent and free of dust, the skies rays of color change according to their location. With the word ‘location’ we mean height, depth and distance from our planet. These situations and circumstances transform the density of the color blue into very light or very thick and sometimes convert into several other colors, depending on the ‘location’.”

From the Earth to the skies, where our eyesight meets its boundaries, all we can find are the countless rays of the color sky-blue descending upon us. This color could also be named an array instead of color, for the reason that the word color cannot be described in any other way, but an array. In reality, what our eyesight senses as an array, we name it as a “color”. Not only color, but there are many kinds of tiny fragments and dynamic molecular activities present in the atmosphere that keep manipulating as well as transforming various kinds of colors. The aspect of color viewable to our sight also contains light, oxygen, nitrogen and other gases. Apart from these gases, there are several different shades that also exist,some being thick and some very light. Other elements and various kinds of colors also absorb into the array sky-blue. Light (thin) and heavy (thick) shades play a vital role in this situation. In the atmosphere, from our eye to as far as we can see, despite the clear skies, a lot of undetected material exists. What is the source of light? We aren’t able to answer that, yet. The distance between a rainbow and us is said to be ninety million miles. It is difficult to understand what other substances/components apart from sunrays that are found, which keep absorbing and blending constantly in the atmosphere. The most miniscule unit of sunrays transferring to us continually is called a ‘photon’, which, in Islamic Spiritualism (Sufism), is named as ‘Aariz’. The word photon is not that wide-ranging and doesn’t meet all the characteristics of the word Aariz, which in this case is a more in-depth and all-encompassing word. We have used the word photon in order to give some clarification to the reader for the word Aariz. Fred Alan Wolf, author of Taking the Quantum Leap and The Parallel Universe, described this phenomenal and imaginary particle as ‘Tachyons’. In The Parallel Universe, when referring to Einstein’s theory of relativity, Wolf wrote (129:3), “Faster-than-light particles could not be created because it wasn’t possible to accelerate a particle from rest to the speed of light”. This seems true as it would take an infinite amount of energy to do so. However, a particle that already exists with a speed greater than of light is not disallowed by relativity. Physicists call these particles tachyons. The word tachy means fast, as in tachycardia, meaning fast heartbeat. In this case,a tachyon means a particle faster than a photon, a speed greater than the speed of light. Although in our discussion here to cover the fundaments of the fundamental colors used to create this beautiful Universe, tachyons cannot encompass the true speed and characteristics of an Aariz either. One of the attributes of an Aariz is that it has no dimension and is so fast that it comes back to its starting point after circling the entire Universe within a billionth of a billionth microsecond (a microsecond is a millionth of a second). I don’t know what modern scientists have decided about photons in regards to its speed, but the speed of Aariz is unimaginable to the brain. The whole Universe is filled with Aarizs and as they don’t have any dimensions, they don’t run into each other or replace one another. In fact the collision of Aarizs with the already existing substances in the atmosphere makes up ‘space’.

What is an environment? An environment is a diffusion of colors, which isn’t possible with just one surge of the Aarizs, but when many rings generated by the Aarizs collide into each other, they create space, colors and other elements. The question now being, how do the circles form in the sun rays? We know there are many stars (Suns) in our galaxy and the minimum distance between them is about five light years. When their light, made up of different substances and mechanisms, collide, they form rings and those rings make planets such as ours planet Earth, and/or other planets. In other words when all these stars (suns), said to be 200 billion in our galaxy and their trillions of sorts of light collide with each other at a certain area in the space which was created by the formation of rings. This area gradually emerges as a planet. We humans first receive the blue ray on our head. This ray stimulates our brain to such an extent that it starts getting influenced by feelings, sentiments and thoughts. The inspiration and impact on the brain then increases accordingly.

Our thoughts, feelings and senses change continuously due to the constant invasion and absorption of the blue ray in our brain. This process takes place in such a way that strong shades appear moderately on the brain and are absorbed simultaneously, leaving room for the next combination of shades, which also leaves behind its impact on the brain. When a lot of shades leave there, turning into thoughts according to their intensity or thickness, all other features of the thoughts fade away or scatter. We then learn to connect all the scattered thoughts. The thoughts we abandon become extinct as well as the ones we absorb and recognize become our deeds or actions. We acquire ecstasy and anguish from these shades, sometimes becoming very sad or delightful. A lot of shades leave the body, but the shades left behind are absorbed and become our nervous system.

Humans walk on two legs, but as the head is on top; our brain is the first to accept the impact of these shades. Jacob Lieberman, in his book, Light: Medicine of the Future, mentioned the function of the pineal gland. According to him, it acts as the body’s light meter, receiving light activated information from the eyes (by way of the hypothalamus). It then sends out hormonal messages that have a profound effect on the mind and body. It is located deep in the center of the brain between the two hemispheres, behind and above the pituitary gland. In humans it can be located by pointing both index fingers directly behind the ears toward the skull. The point where the fingers meet, if touched, is the approximate location of the pineal. In creatures such as birds, lizards and fish, light stimulates the pineal by penetrating directly through the skull.

In humans as well as in all mammals, light stimulates the pineal glands exclusively by the way of our eyes, therefore making it an integral part of the visual system. The technical name for the pineal gland is epiphysis cerebra, which literally means top brain. Humans had also originally received light stimulation through the top of the head, as is vividly described in many metaphysical and ancient spiritual writings.

Our nervous system is inspired by both happiness and grief. In fact, both are the waves of electricity entering our head to be absorbed into the nervous system. The weight and conduct of these waves are not the same in every part of the atmosphere as these waves are constantly divided. Due to this division our brain absorbs the waves, some shades being less and some more. There are billions of cells working in our brain, but it is not necessary that the waves of these shades made in the atmosphere maintain their impact in these cells. Sometimes their impact is strong and every so often it’s faint or it doesn’t persist but it’s clear that these brain cells are never unoccupied; they are inclined towards air, water, food and/or sometimes towards light alone. This light makes and uses a combination of statures in its various forms. Various colors can be seen on our face, the most vivid being the color of our eyes. Our eyes see as well as accept the influence of any outer object more than any other sense. Many outer images through our eyes greatly inspire our brain, consequently making our senses gloomy, weaker or revive them with strength. Our intellect is also based on this situation, which gradually disappears into our nerves, causing a positive or negative impact. Our brainwaves display many impressions on our faces. We cannot read them all, but the impressions still run like a movie on our faces, showing us how waves inside get transferred to our nerves.

What are a Rainbow colors?

As mentioned earlier, there are quite a number of colors with various benefits. Here we will try to understand the nature and characteristics of the seven colors of the Rainbow.

Sky Blue Color

The visible color of sky that our eyes can see is blue, but in fact our sky has no color. The visible blue color is just a combination of those rays arriving from the distant stars, being the nearest one about five light years away. Each star emits rays that travel but they don’t run into each other. We humans are not able to name these rays nor can we grasp them through our eyes. They are simply out of our authority. The color these rays placed together appears as black, though our eyes sense it as sky-blue. The atmosphere is absorbed into billions of our brain cells and replete them to such an extent that none of the conditions can enter, other than some exclusive ones. Some cells are different and yet some are alike. As a results these cells get influenced by the conditions of others cells, although they don’t get immerged mutually. They simply carry the inspiration of other cells and consequently billions of brain cells are pulled together to a level where we cannot separate the action or reactions from one another, therefore they gather together and turn into superstition. And it is not out of place to mention that we human are superstitious animals. In reality the above cellular atmosphere is either named as reflections, contemplation, or superstition. This atmosphere penetrates deeply in the thin fibers of our brain. The blood flows at a very high speed in the fibers-like veins, in a continuous circulation. This continuous circulation, in fact, is human. In the modern science all we know about blood circulation is entirely different than what we think it is. The inspirational impact on our brain by the feelings manifested from the atmosphere turns into a surge, which can only be named as our thoughts or feelings. This blue atmosphere becomes the wave of blood in our veins, which also brings rings of light from other stars. These rings function in our blood. Those rings are so tiny that one cannot see them with the conventional available means, but their presence can be expressed as our actions or deeds. These rings cause activities in nervous system and their deficiency or excess causes flaws. Diversities in the colors also take effect at this point. Light blue produces weak and vulnerable reflections that soon disperse in the central nervous system in a way that each cell carries dozens of light blue

shadows containing their own individual influences. The first wave of reflections is very weak and when these waves are added up to a minimum of 2 or 6 as a maximum, we start to sense our illusions as reflections. This reflection is so intense that if it dwells motionless at its position, we remain healthy without any flaws in our nervous system. In fact our system performs in the proper and right direction. If this recognized wave of reflections is focused upon a particular direction even for a while, its influence and impact is more far reaching and wide-ranging.

Sky blue behaves in the cells according to the strength and spirit of the muscles. The array sky blue is an electronic flow and evolves into space in the brain cells. The marvel of this remarkable process onto the retina makes the different shapes able to be seen. This happens due to the work of the electrical flow in the cells. The senses of our eyes are exceptionally sharp; they can differentiate among these electric waves. This process changes the colors to green, yellow, orange and more. In conclusion, we are constantly surrounded by an electric flow and this flow, having travelled through the brain cells, reveals varied colors in front of our eyes. It also reveals all other senses such as smell, speech and sight, as well as sickness and energy. All become an act, merely because of the effects of this flow.

The Blue Color

There are two kinds of the blue color; light blue and dark blue. The light blue color affects our brain cells first. Even though there is a variation in the light blue color, but the walls of their cells are either thick or thin. These cells also carry an inspiration to filter. When a cell filters its light blue color, there occurs a change in the color. Similarly, hundreds of thousands of cells perform collectively which turns our illusions into demonstrated visualization. Sometimes, the color of these cells is changed so much that our eyes see them in red, green, and yellow, because the light rays, coming in from distant sources, carry no space, but instead ‘create’ space. And when it happens … when the space is created, it shuffles the rays departing through our eyes, resulted a significant change occurs in sensing the colors, up to sixty. In reality, our sense are made up of these colors. Sky blue color acts within the capacity of the cells. This color, which in fact is a ray of light, turns into space when enters in the brain cells. Our retinal activities display various figures, shapes, and characters. It only happens due to the rays flowing in the cells, and more our eyes are sensitive, more they can differentiate in the ray. Through this process, colors are changed to green, yellow, orange, and many others… etc. The bottom line is that we are constantly surrounded by the electrical rays and when these rays travel through our brain cells and become our vision through our eyes; they turn into various colors; and all the other senses such as taste, smell, hearing, and touching, they are all created due to this electrical phenomena.
