VIOLET

Violet is sympathy, unity or universal compassion.

The violet is the light of Divine Grace and Compassion. "Violet" is the colour of benevolence or compassion, but also more vividly of the Divine Grace represented in the vision as flowing from the heights of the spiritual consciousness down on the earth. It is also Krishna's Grace and the radiance of Krishna's protection.

The Divine Grace is a power that is superior to any rule, even to the Cosmic Law — for all spiritual seers have distinguished between the Law and Grace. Yet it is not indiscriminate -- only it has a discrimination of its own which sees things and persons and the right times and seasons with another vision than that of the Mind or any other normal Power. A state of Grace is prepared in the individual often behind thick veils by means not calculable by the mind and when the state of Grace comes, then the Grace itself acts.

These are the three powers:

1. The Cosmic Law, of Karma or what else;

2. The Divine Compassion acting on as many as it can reach through the nets of the Law and giving them their chance;

3. The Divine Grace which acts more incalculably but also more irresistibly than the others.
