Meditation 24 
 
         Picture mentally a great beech-tree changing slowly to autumnal colouring.  The leaves are burnished and shining with every shade of copper, Red-Brown and Gold.  The straight, strong stem still retains its smooth gleam of mother-of-pearl and silver.  The whole tree glistens like a gorgeous piece of jewelled nature-workmanship and the deep Blue sky, visible in spaces of divine colour betweeen the leaves, is clear and bright and majestic. 
         Realisation.  What is termed “realisation” is an expansion of consciousness in which we pass from effect (as experienced by meditation and reflection) to Cause, finding ourselves one with the Cosmic Essence or Divine Principle.  This is what is meant by knowing the Truth.  One of the main objects of the Cosmic Colour Fellowship is that men should know the Truth behind the familiar phenomena of Light and Colour.  By practising Colour Meditation and developing Colour-awareness we contact the Light within us, and then greater Light and Understanding come to us.  This is why sometimes beginners and preliminary students get wonderful results -- they use the interior Light of Truth they possess.
