Black and white also are very important colors. Black in Hinduism represents negative energy, a little black dot is put on the face for infants to avert the evil eye, and white represents detachment, purity and knowledge. However, the Goddess Kali’s is black or blue which signifies nature, the sky and the ocean. Black clouds are a sign of rain.
When we look at the colors, each one has its own energy and then when we wander into a garden, we can see the mingling of the colors and the fragrances.
Meditation on colors
Close your eyes and meditate on the colors of the flowers. No effort has to be made by you. You will be surprised how refreshed you will feel when you open your eyes. It is possible to also meditate on a bouquet of flowers at home. You can also visualize a single color and see the flowers and smell the fragrances associated with it. Children can also be taught this meditation.
