I was curious as to some thoughts on this subject. I have noticed that Seagal wears some very fascinating colors at times and I wonder if he maybe wears them for spiritual reasons.

I think that Steven does use colour for it's uplifting healing benefits, however that is only my opinion (ie not based on factual knowledge) - I believe that he has made reference to the healing benefits of visual art and music and bright colours - will track that info down.....

In my work as a Feng Shui practitioner, visual artist and Reiki Master I find that colour has a profound effect on our state of well being

As for art and music it can be used to produce profound healing benefits.

The Tibetan Buddhist tradition is very bright and colourful in it's uses of colour which all mean something important for balancing body, mind and spirit

For example green is the colour of envy in it's lower vibration, however rather than seeing this as a negative condition from the Tib. Buddhist point of view, it is celebrated as an opportunity to transform that emotion into discriminating wisdom, which is effected through the spiritual practice of Amoghasiddhi who is one of the 5 Dhyani Buddhas - his colour is green - however these practices are usually prescribed by a Guru proficient in the system and requires initiation into the practice

Also green is the colour used to remove evil forces from the environment so there are examples of this in action embodied in Green Tara who is invoked specifically for this purpose.......there is heaps more to it however hope this helps!!!

Perharps, like in bouddhist mandala !!!

It's very interesting that in fact there are Buddhist Mandalas in some of Steven's movies and that he has indicated that he likes them - some are for protection and others are showing the mandala of the Wheel of Life which I am hoping to learn one day from my teacher!!!

Thank you lotuseyes, I was reading that color can effect us very deeply and I am planning on learning more as well. I love the color purple but strangely I do not own much of anything with that color. I think that is odd.

You are welcome!

Purple is a very spiritual colour and relates to the crown chakra in the Hindu system - in Tibetan iconography purple is about magic - purple is a great colour I used to wear heaps of it (at one stage even dyed the hair purple - that was a mercifully short phase I might add!!!) but now mainly stick to reds, golds, dark blue and white

Try going to a good esoteric bookshop - there you are likely to find heaps of information about colour and spirituality!!

Cheers!

Well...color me purple. :D


It's all a matter of balance.......too much of it (purple that is) can make people a bit airheaded thus it is wise to wear colours that keeps one's feet on the ground.....unless ofcourse one wants the equivalent of a free ride in an air balloon without having to fork out the cash nor to discover at the last minute a severe case of aggrophobia!!!

:apeace: sister!!!

I think I may be the matter of a spatter
oh my what keeps me to adhering to the floor
or better yet what does allow me to fly

is it my purpleness that makes me so fluid
or is it my blueness that keeps me steadfast to the ground
it is hard to decide on where I would like to be
considering there is so much to offer from both existences
so in the matter of commenting and not I choose to do so
to keep things cohesive to understanding

Say What? Say it is fluid and ask yourself how it solidifies? Oh, my! Then say what can I do to main the solid form to remain? Oh and then you can be purple. So in the end you can choose what form you would like to hold.

Oh...I like it solid...:p
... with the ability to flow simultaneously.
To merge...to fuse...and dissolve.
But... lets keep it a secret.;)

oh my undaunted soul

Oh yes!
Secret.
Aye, the mightiest of manipulators.
A secret it shall remain.
Hail to simultaneous fusibility.
Solidarity is champion.
Now to dissolve.
 

Jalu

Steve's Destiny
So then...

Lets converge at the Ocean Of Milk.

You be the Red Lotus...I'll be the Blue...
If fusibility proves possible... we can become One single purple one.

Spirit Cave

In the cave around the fire
Where the spirits convene
You are there with passionate intent.
The power of your presence quickens me.
The fire dances as you come to me
Your radiance fueling my desires.
My essence welcomes yours.
As our spirits meld
Our auras can be seen tingling with unknown colors and hue.
Our spirits evolve as they move through and around and over one another
Shining as a molten rock or mercuric fluid.
The fire refracting off us as it rises.
Refracting and rising
Rising higher, higher, higher!
Your essence now receding
Slowly our auras become our own to shine alone
Until once more we convene around the fire in the Spirit Cave.

Walk where you walk.

cry when you cry,
die when you die,
let go when you let go..."
