The Purple Book - On Languages is the 7th book in the 'Colour Spectrum of 11 Spaces' series, which serves as an inspiration for a new foundation for being human, byreminding us of the universal language of being, which connects us, rather than fragmenting us. The book unfolds the language part of the colour spectrum and reminds us that the language of words is a mere tool available for us to understand ourselves and each other, and that there exists more than one language. This book describes the five languages that we can all access:
The Language of Linguistics: The Language that uses words, and can be divided intoEnglish, Spanish, Chinese etc.
The Language of Space: The Language that belongs to the registration of the senses and to borders, delineations within any space, and their qualities such as light, colour and form, which frame how we navigate and register the world.
The Language of Actions: The Language that belongs to how we express ourselves through the actions that we take, which can speak louder than the language of words.
The Language of Emotions: The Language that belongs to the intuitive connection to yourself and to others which, if accessed truly - through the body instead of the mind - offers a bridge to the Genuine Language.
The Genuine Language: The last and fifth Language, which is the honest clarity and wisdom we receive when we pause to look within and come to see and understand our genuine truth. This Genuine Language is a tool to first understand ourselves, and to then allow ourselves to show up in full responsibility for our lives - in all our actions, words, emotions and boundaries.
The overall theme of the book is to describe the evolutionary take on the history of our languages, and express the frustration that comes when one is not able to express one self. This may be the case for the development of linguistic languages in our the history, but it is also the case for each and every one of us. We have all been small children that had to learn the capacities of our bodies, our will and senses - and we have all known the exasperation when we needed to communicate with the adults around us, with no words to express our desires and wishes. Or similarly we may have had this experience, when traveling to a foreign country, where we lacked the language to ask for even the simplest of things.
The book demonstrates the need to utilise all five of these Languages. I believe this longing for understanding is still embedded deeply within us. Even though we have evolved our communication skills beyond any generation prior to us, we have also, I believe, lost the connection to the Genuine Language. Without an understanding and ability to access the Genuine Language, we cannot make prope use of the preceding four Languages. The purpose of this book is to give us access to our genuine language, so that we understand what we are truly saying. By doing that, this book wishes to provide us with a collective language, so that we can speak much more openly, honestly and responsibly with one another.
