CONTEMPORARY RESEARCH

Chromotherapy, as a consequence of the experimental results obtained by many researchers, has spread today everywhere and especially in England where an International College of Chromatics has been founded.

In France, Dr. Regnault carried out many experiences on Chromotherapy in 1911 and 1920, and in 1924 published in the Côte d'Azur médicale the result of said experiences, advising to choose colors for the walls of rooms and tapestries, according to the use to which those rooms were destined. Previously, those same counsels had been given, in England, by Kemp Prossor, Dubash and Hopkins, who had established with exactness which were the colors that best suited the walls of clinics, private rooms, and even advised printing books with green ink on cream-colored paper.

In 1929, Mangin communicated to the Académie des Sciences a note by Truffaut and Pastax on a new treatment of plant diseases through coloring matters.

In 1930 Larvaron, professor of agriculture, to determine the action of colors used a radiocampimeter and wrote in the Côte d'Azur médicale: "The problem that imposes itself consists in searching for each disease, the action of colors (chords of resonance) that provokes the cure."

THE MECHANISM OF COLOR HEALING

How do colors act on sick beings?

Beings in general and, consequently humans, receive and emit all kinds of vibrations different from each other, as we have said, by their wavelength. From the reciprocal action and reaction of these vibrations results, for each being, a type of characteristic vibration with its corresponding wavelength. Now then, all vibratory action that tends to move away from its normality (or state of harmony or health) the characteristic vibration, produces a vibratory disharmony or state of disease. In the state of health there is, therefore, a harmonic play of vibrations and in the state of disease a disharmonic play of vibrations, that is, the predominance of some and the diminution or lack of others. If the vibratory disharmony is transitory and weak we obtain maladies of all kinds; if it is transitory and intense we obtain acute disease and if it is relatively permanent we obtain chronic disease with a more or less intense symptomatology, according to the more or less profound permanent vibratory perturbation.

We have already said that to each vibration corresponds a determined color and, consequently, the reciprocal play of these vibrations manifests as a reciprocal play of colors that, in the aura, shows itself as an incessant kaleidoscopic surge.

We have also already said that mental, vital and physical vibrations manifest with their corresponding colors that we find in the aura perennially modified by their reciprocal influences. The observation of that marvelous spectacle of the aura for clairvoyant eyes permits, therefore, for those who know how to interpret those constant modifications of colors to establish:

The observation of that marvelous spectacle of the aura for clairvoyant eyes permits, therefore, for those who know how to interpret those constant modifications of colors to establish:

a) — If there is harmony of vibrations or health.

b) — If there is disharmony of vibrations or disease.

c) — If the disharmony is mental, astral or physical.

d) — If the disharmony is transitory (mental, emotional, sensorial state) or permanent (acute or chronic pathological state mental, vital, physical).

THERAPEUTIC APPLICATION

The disharmonizing causes transitory or permanent can be of mental, astral or physical origin (thoughts, feelings, sensations) and can act on parts or on the totality of the being. Be it in one case or the other, the repercussion of the action is made on the integral being, and it is for this reason that thoughts act on emotivity and sensoriality, feelings on mentality, and sensoriality on emotivity and mentality.

From all the exposed it results that one can cure, that is, make the modified characteristic vibration of the being return to its normal state or of health, either by eliminating the excess of pathogenic vibrations or by supplying the vibrations that are lacking or are weak.

COMPLETE TRANSLATION SUMMARY

This completes the full 10-document translation of La Iniciación Volume 5, Number 48 (April 1946)

This comprehensive issue represents one of the most balanced and scholarly editions in the journal's collection, demonstrating the sophisticated synthesis of Eastern and Western esoteric traditions characteristic of mid-20th century spiritual movements. The extensive treatment of Ramakrishna provides readers with authentic Vedantic spirituality, while the technical articles on musical mathematics, astrological influences, and color therapy show how esoteric principles manifest through natural phenomena.

The continuation of philosophical series (Demiurge, Suddha Dharma) maintains the journal's commitment to serious metaphysical study, connecting South American practitioners with the deepest currents of both Gnostic and Vedantic thought.

Each document preserves the academic tone and spiritual depth of the original while making these rare materials accessible to contemporary researchers and practitioners seeking authentic traditional wisdom.
