________________ root of the problem so that he would be able to overcome difficulties without much effort. Mental Happiness Psychologically, perception of yellow colour results in mental happiness. Much advance has been made in colour science and research still continues. Psychology of colour tells us that yellow colour is a symbol of mental happiness. It reduces mental deficiency and enhances joyfulness. Scriptures also propound that the advent of padma lesyā produces mental peace and happiness. Perceptive acumen is enhanced by it. Perceptive ability leads to realization and an actual experience, not dialectical or rhetorical sharpness, but sagacity and wisdom. Thus, the benefits derived from the perception of bright yellow colour, may be enumerated as : * Enhancement of mental happiness, * Development of intelligence, * Development of perceptive ability, and * Invigorating of nervous system (brain, spinal cord, nerves, etc.) Perception of psychic yellow colour on chākṣus kendra also reinforces the efficiency of the sensory nerves. Mastery over Sensuality When the golden yellow colour appears in a meditational exercise, the practitioner enhances his selfcontrol and masters his sensuality. Absence of self-control results from the influence of malevolent lesyā. This must be Jain Education International 60 For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
