ON THE THIRD PIECE OF PERSONALITY PUZZLE, BEYONDISM poses these questions: Why is colour such a powerful force in our lives? What effects can it have on our bodies and minds? While perceptions of colour are somewhat subjective, there are some colour effects that have universal meaning. Colours in the red area of the colour spectrum are known as warm colours and include red, orange and yellow. These warm colours evoke emotions ranging from feelings of warmth and comfort to feelings of anger and hostility. Colours on the blue side of the spectrum are known as cool colours and include blue, purple and green. These colours are often described as calm, but can also call to mind feelings of sadness or indifference.

SEVEN therapeautic tonics to loftily LOCATE your LIFE’s BASIC BEARING:

1. BEAUTY, colour and a sense of honour are inseparable. Placing your desires and tastes in a particular colour, shows your aesthetic sense and amounts to honouring the best in you.
2. EXPERIENCED by all civilised human beings as a scintillating sensation, the concept of colour psychology has become a hot topic in marketing, art, design, and other areas.
3. AT best, much of the evidence in this emerging area is anecdotal, but researchers and experts have made a few important discoveries and observations about the psychology of colour.
4. REAL effect on moods, feelings, and behaviours has been documented. Of course, your feelings about colour are often deeply personal and rooted in your own experience or culture.
5. IN this regard, from the perspective of BEYONDISM, the instinctual choice of a colour may to a reasonable extent, tell you a lot about yourself, how you function and how others see you.
6. NOTABLY, your cherished colour may be the subtle means to understanding your behaviour and your character traits, as well as your physical, mental, emotional and spiritual states.
7. GENERALLY, your esteemed colour may also reflect the way you live in the world, your strengths and weaknesses, your vulnerabilities, your deepest need and your challenges in LIFE.

#35. In as much as I am aware of the colour that makes me feel ALIVE,
Which path must I tread in order to raise my CONSCIOUSNESS?

What does it mean to become more conscious? Or more self aware?
It is the progressive realisation of conscious mastery over your mind.
The challenge is that it takes consciousness to grow consciousness.
But you need not worry about this because you already have the seed.
You have a flame, and you want to turn that flame into a huge blaze.
How do you do it? You add fuel; the more the fuel, the bigger the fire.
Add fuel to your flame of consciousness to become a raging inferno.

#35. I, ___________________________, aspiring to raise my CONSCIOUSNESS, do DECISIVELY DECLARE that, knowledge will raise my consciousness, while ignorance will lower it. As a critical move, I MUST KNOW MYSELF. I will think deeply about my LIFE, and keep a journal to record my thoughts. I will ask questions to which I do not know the answer, and then search for those answers. I will look around me as well, and soak up knowledge like a sponge. I will interact with my environment with a sense of curiosity and wonder. Study it. Learn from it. Experiment with it. Strive to understand reality, including my role in it, as accurately as possible. The more accurate my beliefs about reality are, the more conscious I will become. I have realised that reason will raise my consciousness, while irrationality will lower it. Logic is a powerful tool of consciousness when used correctly. It lends structure and substance to thought. However, the great challenge of logic is the avoidance of false assumptions. A single false assumption can throw off a lifetime of otherwise logical conclusions. So I will challenge all of my beliefs, and never have too much certainty about those that rest on clouds.

In this reference, as a BLESSED BEYONDIST, I hereby, make an ABSOLUTE AFFIRMATION that, conscious people will raise my consciousness, while unconscious people will lower it. I will seek out others I perceive to be at a higher level of consciousness than I am. Talk to them, ask questions, and enjoy their presence. I will allow their ideas and awareness to infect me, and I will find myself expanding in all directions. I will become more honest, more courageous, more compassionate, and so on. It is apparent that spending time with people at a lower level of consciousness, will gradually sink me to their level. Their thoughts will infect me as well, causing me to become more dishonest, more fearful, more apathetic, etc. I will strive to find a balance between spending time with those who raise my consciousness versus spending time with those I can help. I will learn from those who are a little more conscious, and help those who are a little less conscious than me. In this manner I will serve the highest good of all, expanding consciousness everywhere. I have realised that the intention to raise my consciousness will raise it, while the intention to lower my consciousness will lower it. Consciousness has the capacity to self-expand or self-contract, just as I have the capacity to grow or to commit suicide. In any given moment, I have the freedom of choice. By genuinely voicing the intention (or by offering the prayer), “I intend to become more conscious and aware,” I will initiate the expansion of my consciousness. By choosing to lie, to succumb to fear, to commit acts of cruelty, to remain ignorant, and so on, I put out the intention to lower my consciousness. And in so doing, I initiate a process that will attract more falsehood, fear, cruelty, ignorance, etc. into my LIFE. Every thought I hold serves to either expand or contract my consciousness. There is no neutral. So I will choose wisely.
