Sadhguru Tips: When it comes to the colors we wear, particularly black, there’s much more than just fashion at play. According to Sadhguru, the spiritual leader Jaggi Vasudev, the color black has a significant impact on our energy and psychological well-being. In a thought-provoking discussion, he delves into how our choice of clothing, especially when it comes to black, affects the way our energy functions.
The Energy Dynamics of Black and White
Sadhguru explains that colors are not what they seem. For instance, a red object isn’t inherently red. Instead, it reflects red light while absorbing all other colors. Black, on the other hand, absorbs everything and reflects nothing. White reflects everything, making it a color of protection.
In spaces where you’re unsure about your surroundings or the energies around you, Sadhguru suggests wearing white. White reflects not just light but energy as well, shielding you from absorbing unwanted energies from people or environments. Conversely, black absorbs everything. While black is often worn because of its slimming effect, Sadhguru warns that it could lead to absorbing harmful energies.
The Psychological Impact of Wearing Black
One of the key points Sadhguru makes is the psychological effect of wearing black for long periods. He attributes around 20-25% of people’s psychological struggles to the prolonged use of black clothes in inappropriate situations. Black is known to absorb not just physical but also mental and emotional energies, which can lead to psychological instability.
He humorously points out that black is often associated with negativity, death, and even the devil. Despite this, many people wear black during mourning, which, according to Sadhguru, is a complete misunderstanding. During times of death or grief, white should be worn to reflect and stay protected from absorbing negative energies.
The Symbolism of Black and White in Spiritual Practices
Sadhguru emphasizes the spiritual significance of black and white. Black, often worn by spiritual seekers, helps in absorbing energies when one is open to it. However, for everyday situations where people don’t want to absorb the surrounding energies, wearing black can be harmful. White, in contrast, is a symbol of complete reflection and should be used when one wants to protect themselves from external influences.
Sadhguru’s insights into the colors black and white highlight the deeper, often overlooked impact that clothing choices have on our energy, mindset, and overall well-being. Next time you reach for that black outfit, consider what kind of energy you might be inviting into your life.
