AN INTRODUCTION

The Colour of Truth Volume I: Patterns in Light

Based upon years of painstaking research; the following slides outline the opening themes and concepts behind

The Colour of Truth series of books.

Described as “..fascinating, intriguing, and provocative..” this first volume in The Colour of Truth trilogy documents a truly remarkable phenomenon; a

series of striking patterns in nature, science, and human history that according to the author, may even hint at the very meaning of life itself.

Page 4: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

We Are All Children of Light..

The Sun is the centre of our solar system and the source of all our light, energy, and life.

Our solar system is only one.. amongst billions of solar systems in the Milky Way galaxy.

Page 5: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

The Milky Way Galaxy in turn is only one of around fifty billion galaxies in the known Universe

.

The stars at the centres of these Galaxies radiate life-giving energies that we know as

Electromagnetic Radiation

Page 6: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Electromagnetic Radiation is measured along a scale known as the Electromagnetic Spectrum

This scale of wavelengths is comprised of lasers, radio waves, infrared, ultraviolet, x-rays and gamma rays

Light is the visible aspect of this spectrum which we see in the form of 'white' daylight and colours

Page 7: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Radiation Affects us in Numerous Ways

We can see and feel lasers..

Microwaves cook our TV dinners..

X-rays photograph our bones..

We hear radio-waves..

Ultraviolet is used in dentistry and medicine..

...and Light and Colour envelops and surrounds us all

Page 8: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

So, if the other aspects of the

electromagnetic spectrum can have

substantial physical effects upon us...

why then shouldn't colour, as the visible

aspect of light, be doing likewise?

Page 9: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Light travels through space as ‘pure’ energy. Plants convert this energy into matter through

photosynthesis, which can then be consumed as food by us.

Light and colour is visible energy that has substantial effects on us through photosynthesis, sunburn, etc..

The question is.. what other effects does it have on us?

Page 10: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Light-waves operate

between 300-700

billion Hz

Sound operates

between 16 Hz to

20,000 Hz

Just as beautiful music can affect our emotions through physical sound-waves, so does light and

colour have subliminal effects upon us

Page 11: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Many eminent scholars and authors have concluded that light and colour directly affects human behaviour in a variety of ways..

Paracelcus, Novalis, Leonardo da Vinci,Isaac Newton, James Clerk Maxwell,

Immanuel Kant, Johann von Goethe, Ludwig Wittgenstein,Charles Darwin,Neils Finsen, Carl Gustav Jung,

Albert Einstein, Faber Birren, Edgar Cayce, Max Luscher, John Gage, ..and

many, many more..

Page 12: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

“Light is the one universal constant that underwrites all forms of matter and energy on the

planet...”

..so it should be no great surprise to discover that

the fundamental properties of light remain our best

guide to a balanced environment.. ..both natural

and social

This presentation will show how the whole of

human history has been underwritten by a

subliminal 'colour-code'

Page 13: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Because of its many facets and applications in

relation to human society; political; religious;

psychological; social; ecological; this previously

undocumented 'colour-code' is known as the

Triadic Archetype

* * *

Simply put, the Triadic Archetype is a three-

point, self-evident system of Universal Truths,

based upon the properties of light itself

Page 14: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

This three-point system holds the unique

promise of clarifying many outstanding

points of conflict between social, political,

and religious ideologies worldwide..

Evident all around us in so many ways, its

practical, historical, thematic, and personal

applications undoubtedly have a great deal to

tell us about the proverbial 'meaning of life'.

But First... Some Incredible Colour Coincidences

in Recent Political History

Page 16: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Europe in 1914Just before the Great War (WW I)

The Triple Entente

The Triple Alliance

Germany Austria-Hungary Italy

Great Britain France Russia

Page 17: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

“The Allies”Serbia, France, Russia, GB, Montenegro

“The Associated Powers”Germany, A-Hungary, Bulgaria, Ottoman E.

The Great War (WW I) 1914

Page 18: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

But is this really just 'mere coincidence' I wonder?

Well, let's see shall we.. by first calculating the mathematical odds of

this particular occurrence in history?

Five red-white-blue flags on one side; and no blues on the other..

An interesting run of coincidences

I hope you'll agree?

Page 19: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

World War One was undoubtedly one of the most history-

shaping events of modern times... but we need to emphasize

that this particular R-W-B flag example is only one isolated

incident amongst a host of similarly-synchronistic

phenomena (to be reviewed shortly) that underwrites all life

and history on the planet

So.. is this R-W-B phenomena just 'mere

coincidence'? ..or is there really more to this than meets

the eye?

Well, let's take a closer look at the numbers here..

Page 20: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Mathematical Odds of Choosing Three Particular Colours

Since the Middle Ages, various paints, inks and dyes have

been available to artisans in many shades and hues

However, in order to remain as objective and scientific as possible, we will only use seven for our calculations

Black, Purple, Red, Green, Yellow, Blue, White

Page 21: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Without considering any other mitigating factors;

the mathematical odds of any five nations choosing a

red-white-blue tricolour flag from only seven, popular

colours is...

That is: One billion, five hundred and forty-four

million, eight hundred and four thousand, four

hundred and sixteen... to one!

“Just Pure Coincidence?”

1,544,804,416 : 1

Page 22: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

“Meaningful coincidences are

unthinkable as pure chance – the more

they multiply and the greater and more

exact the correspondence is...they can

no longer be regarded as pure chance,

but, for the lack of a causal explanation,

have to be thought of as meaningful

arrangements.”

Dr. Carl Gustav Jung (1875-1961)

Page 23: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Europe in 1917More Coincidences?.. or Meaningful Arrangements?

..and becomes the USSR

Russia leaves the War..

In comes the USA, closely followed by Costa Rica, Greece, Panama, China, Liberia, Siam, Cuba & Brazil – all with blue & white, and six with R-W-B flags..

Page 24: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Meanwhile in the Far East..

Imperial Japan wages war on her R-W-B neighbours

Page 25: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Various Core 'Opposition' Forces of the 20th Century

WW I Associated Powers. (+) WW II Axis Forces. USSR & Red China

Page 26: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

The Political Colours of the Middle East..

..reflect the very same patterns..

Page 27: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

The Nations of the Arab League c. 1960

Once again.. no blues..and lots of reds and blacks

Page 28: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Just in-case there remain any doubts..

Treaty of Versailles in 1919

League of Nations in 1920

Attacked by Japan 1900-45

Resisted Hitler & Stalin in 1939

Resisted Japan in WW II

Bombed by Japan on Dec 7th 1941 (Pearl Harbour)

12 Active Military Countries vs. Soviet Union & Red China in Korean War 1950-53

Page 29: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

The Question is...

What exactly is going on here?

Why have we traditionally chosen colours that apparently correspond to historical positions and

political themes?

Red-white-blues for democracies... Red-and-blacks for authoritarian regimes... the notable absence of blues in

certain situations..

Why have so many countries aligned along these subliminal colour-lines at key points in history?

Is this just mere coincidence.. at odds of trillions to one? Or are we witnessing some sort of 'meaningful

arrangement'.. as Carl Jung would say?

Page 30: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

What if I were to inform you that these very same political colour-patterns can also be identified in:

Quantum Physics and Human DNA The Structures of Atoms and Molecules

*Mythology – Sociology – Psychology

Art – Politics – History*

World ReligionsJudaism – Christianity – The Bible

Buddhism – Hinduism – Taoism – Islam

...and that this colour-based aspect is only one dimension of the amazing Triadic Archetype documented in The Colour of Truth series?

...would you want to know more?

Page 31: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design?

Almighty God..? Or Cosmic Mechanics?

Chaos..? Or Creation?

These are just some of the key questions tackled by

The Colour of Truth series of books:

Vol I: Patterns in Light

Vol II: Parallels in Life

Vol III: Principles to Live By

Page 32: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

VOLUME I: PATTERNS IN LIGHT

..focuses on the dynamics of light and colour, and

documents a host of parallel themes, concepts, and

assorted phenomena linked to the Triadic Archetype

We will explore the physical, literal, symbolic, thematic, and numeric

aspects of the colour spectrum as documented in various disciplines..

Page 33: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

We will look at atoms and molecules and Human DNA..

..and show some intriguing connections

with our political colour-themes

Page 34: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

We will review ancient philosophies and modern science..

..and we will look at the Triadic Archetype in Holy

Scriptures as well as in modern society..

Page 35: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

We will investigate universal symbols, numbers, and colours that relate to the Triadic Archetype – either in their cosmic alignment or lack thereof..

We will make determined inroads into the true meanings of many such phenomena.. and the agencies and

institutions they represent..

Page 36: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

..we will also review the flags and symbols of the major faith traditions.. their alignment with universal norms..

..and discuss where they may be in – or out – of cosmic balance..

Page 37: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

..we will see how the Triadic Archetype features prominently in modern psychology, 'alternative' healing

practices, and certain New Age traditions..

Page 38: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

..we will compare those provocative findings with traditional religious and political symbolism..

..and discover even more intriguing connections..

Page 39: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

..we will show why we have consistently chosen certain colours for traditional heroes, heroines, and villains

We will eliminate much myth and superstition, and (hopefully) replace it with self-evident truths.. all the while edging closer and closer to those

crucial questions concerning the very 'meaning of life' itself.

Page 40: The Colour of Truth Amazing Coincidence..? Or Intelligent Design? Perspectives on the Meaning of Life © S.T. Manning PhD 2002-2006 Vol I: Patterns in Light

The Colour of Truth series of books:

Vol I: Patterns in Light

Vol II: Parallels in Life

Vol III: Principles to Live By

..documents the existence of the amazing Triadic Archetype in all

areas of human life and endeavour.

Where it is fully present we witness harmony and

equilibrium...but where it is absent....?

See for yourself..
