As part of Sherry Burton Ways virtual book tour, I have a special treat for you! 
Candle Color: A Healing Tool For Your Interior
 

 

Combining the power of fire with the energy of color can be especially powerful, as there is no doubt that color affects us all. Candles, a type of lighting that enhances Chi, bring light and warmth into a room, and provide an easy way to experiment with new colors and shapes. Candles are also wonderful mood makers, whether it’s an introspective mood in the sanctuary, an intimate mood in the bedroom, or an atmosphere of warmth and good cheer in living and dining rooms. The best candles are drip-less, and either unscented or naturally scented.

Candle pic for Sherry's vbtIf you are working on achieving a feeling of peacefulness and balance in your home, you might choose something from the blue family. If, on the other hand, you are visualizing lively energy permeating your space, you might want to use yellow or reds. If you are seeking love or wish to conceive a child, you might want to burn a pink candle in your bedroom. If you are trying to increase abundance, a green candle is helpful. A yellow candle might enhance feelings of joy and friendliness.

Red candles can be used in a room if you want to stimulate physical activity. For example, if you have a room or place in your home where you have exercise equipment and you want to increase your physical strength, you may want to burn a red candle in your bedroom and dedicate it to passion.

Orange candles can be used in a room where family and friends will be gathering. For example, you might want to burn an orange candle just before a party to stimulate friendliness and enthusiasm in the room. You could dedicate this candle to joy and happiness for the evening ahead. Candle pic 2 for Sherry's vbt

Yellow candles can be used in a room where you or your children study, or where you want to stimulate philosophical conversation or increased concentration.

Green candles are beneficial in any area where the family spends time as they create relaxation. They are also helpful when used in the room of someone who may be sick. Green candles stimulate feelings of balance, harmony, peace, hope, growth and healing.

Blue candles are excellent for bedrooms or for rooms where meditation is done. Purple candles, like blue ones, are equally soothing. In addition, this candle color is associated with psychic awareness and intuition.

Candlelight creates a warm and intimate ambiance, which is conducive to conversation. Enjoy the romance of candlelight, not just in the dining room, but also in the bathroom. Candlelight is very therapeutic, it creates a gentle and peaceful atmosphere that is in harmony with nature.

Journey into Consciousness with Vipin Mehta

Join host Shelly Wilson and her special guest, Vipin Mehta for this segment of Journey into Consciousness airing live on Wednesday, June 13, 2012 at 1-1:30 pm CST/ 2-2:30 pm EST.

Vipin is the author of the Global Healing trilogy put out by Fulbright Publishing, which produces books that support and further the goals of the late Senator James William Fulbright.

Vipin teaches how we can appropriately release our negative constrictive emotions such as pain, anger and anxiety and turn it into positive creative energy, by using the principles of metaphysics, such as meditation techniques, to transform and transcend hurtful emotions and situations.

According to Metaphysics, any emotion that is released appropriately (including anger and anxiety) is positive, whereas any emotion that is NOT released appropriately (including love and compassion) is negative.

Vipin’s books will assist you in releasing negative emotions appropriately and genuinely generating change in the State of Mind by discussing:

· How forgiving yourself is part of the healing process

· Steps for forgiving yourself

· Modalities of Healing

· Secrets of Well-Being and Being-Well

· Discovering and Exploring the Secrets of Power of Healing, and Empowering Yourself

· Who is the Greatest Healer?

· Steps to Healing Yourself

By profession, Vipin is a licensed engineer; by passion he is a Metaphysical Educator and noted Spiritual counselor. He applies his knowledge of engineering and physics to describe the inner workings of the human mind and how Metaphysical knowledge can be used for individual Healing. As a Metaphysical Educator, Vipin gives individual Lessons and Seminars titled “Healing Yourself by Ways of Metaphysics, (Mind over Matter)”.

The following is the summary of the interview:

1) Host Shelly introduced Vipin and asked about his journey and how the Global Healing books came to be

Vipin discussed and narrated his Spiritual Journey in this lifetime. Born in Mumbai, India during the Independence Movement led by Mahatma Gandhi. He learned the Lesson of truth from Gandhi that We, the members of the global family, humanity at large are the children of Divinity, and Goodness is that we are to respect each other with love and care breaking all the barriers of color, caste . creed, ethnicity, and religious beliefs. He experienced the Beauty through Nobel-prize winner Mystic Poet Ravindranath Tagore. Basically there are three windows of the human mind, Truth, Goodness, and Beauty through which you one can get the glimpses of Divinity. Vipin had his first experience with Metaphysics transforming negative emotion to positive emotion through self-realized J. Krishnamurthy. Currently there is a center on his name in Ojai, CA. Vipin was tremendously exposed to the true understanding of Spiritual Scriptures of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Socrates, Tao, Sufi, and many others through Mystic Rajneesh (Osho) and then he became a Seeker-Seeking the Purpose and Mysteries of Life and the Universe. He migrated in 1969 into the USA and pursued his Seeking through Edgar Cayce, Ruth Montgomery and Modern Mystics.

Vipin was a Spiritual Guide to many local and state politicians, and his son Rave’ inspired him to write the book so he could share the knowledge of Metaphysics and Spirituality applied on Political Science with the humanity at large. After 9/11 Rave’ introduced Vipin to Mrs. Harriet (Senator) Fulbright, and wrote the Global Healing Trilogy. Book number one Global Healing: Thinking Outside the Box introduces the knowledge of Metaphysics (beyond information, intellect/intelligence, and ESP) book number two Global Healing: Awakening Spirituality is the application of Metaphysics of Consciously Creating Reality for Healing individually as well Collectively, and book number three Global Healing: New Vistas of Hope introduces how to Consciously Create the Map for Family, Community and Global family.

2) The root cause for all crisis and chaos which we are passing through lies in the state of mind. It is the human mind that makes the choices and decisions. For example, it is the human mind that makes the choice and decision to use the nuclear energy to bloom the deserts, or to abuse the nuclear energy with weapons of mass destruction and create the devastation of humanity. Therefor it is important to change the mindset from Domination to Dominion. “Change the Mindset, Change the World.”

3) Dominion vs. Domination

Humanity has been living for more than the last 5,000 years in a mindset of Dominion. Domination is born out of insecurity and it generates control, controlling others. When control is threatened it turns into power to rule others and manipulation. It lives in the past, which creates the present moving toward the future. It is also based on Un-Trust (not trusting others) and always looks to Take and then Blame others. This has brought the humanity to crossroads one road if they continue on Domination which is heading towards the global suicide with the weapons of mass destruction and the other is to Global Healing through the mindset of Dominion. Dominion is based on the principle of sovereignty that we are the part of Divinity and we can co-creatively prosper together and the psychology of abundance. It starts with the co-creation, then power and willingness to act, and engaging Spirituality, futuristic living (future creates the present in the backdrop of the past) Trust- Creating Trustworthiness, and Trusting each other, Give, and Take Responsibility and Share Love.

4) By the Divine vs. of the Divine

In consensus reality it is believed that God created us or We are by the Divine, but as per the Metaphysics and Spirituality We are of the Divine. Each person has a piece of Divinity or Unit of Consciousness within us, and it can be expanded from Mineral , Plant, Animal and Human Kingdom. Our common link is the Consciousness-We are all Connected, and we are on the same Pilgrimage of going (returning) to sweet home of Cosmic Consciousness.

5) Sacred Journey of Consciousness

According to Sacred Journey each Unit of Consciousness was dwelling in Cosmic Consciousness, Like a drop of water in the Ocean, and then there was a spark of Desire to find its own Identity and Image, and then the Journey started with the Big Bang, and myriad of Units of Consciousness passed through the Etherium and some of them to the Physical Universe-to Planet Earth. In Planet Earth they evolved through Mineral-Plant-Animal-Human Animal-Human Being (See the Slideshow of Sacred Journey of Consciousness)

6) What is Metaphysics?

Meta means Beyond, and Metaphysics is beyond Physics- beyond Space-Time-Dimension. Anything within Space-Time-Dimension is part Physics, the brain is a part of Physics because you can see it, touch, feel it by the human senses. While the mind is beyond Space-Time-Dimension, you cannot show it to me like the brain. By definition the mind is a flow of thoughts and feelings, it is a process, so grammatically it is a verb and not a noun. Like a river is a flow of water, and traffic is a flow of vehicles. The mind also has the ability to Imagine, therefor Imagination is the 5th Dimension, and when you put Ideas and Images together, and Engineer them it become Creativity. It can be Innovative or Inventive.

7) Anatomy of Human Being

The Human Being has basically 5 bodies, the first is physical body which we all are aware and Modern Medical Science has developed. The second body is the Life Energy body, when the infant is born, the first thing he/she does is Breathe, and at the end of the Life when one becomes old, the physician declares death when the person stops Breathing. So breath is the Food of the Life Energy body. The third body is called the Mental body in which is a continuous flow of thoughts, feelings and images. And those thoughts and feeling are expressed and reflected in the day to day life. The Mental body can also be further sub-divided into Conscious mind, Sub-Conscious Mind (this Lifetime) and Unconscious Mind of the previous lifetime. Every human being has an Auric Field around the physical body, that Auric Field comes from the Etheric Body (Etherium) and that Etheric Energy flows through the physical body through the Chakras (vortexes of Etheric Energy)-Crown, Brow, Throat, Heart, Solar Plexus, Sacral, and Root. Beyond Etheric Body there is a Blissful Body which consists of the Truer Self (neither body nor mind) then Soul & Spirit, and Higher (Consciousness) Self.

8) Host Shelly concluded with this final message from the back of The Global Healing books

Individually:
“I create my own reality, and I am responsible for what I am. I am the master of my destiny, and not the victim of fate.”

Collectively:
“We, the members of the Global Family, create our own reality and we are responsible for that. We are the masters of our own destiny, and not the victims of fate.”

Vipin added this note:

“The key lies in taking responsibility. The more you take responsibility the more secrets (of life) will be revealed to you, the more you blame, the secrets which you know will be taken away from you.”
