Hey Peregrine,
This makes a lot of sense. Coincidentally (a synchronicity perhaps) I had a chance to think about this concept this morning on my way to work, as I got mixed up in an almost-car accident. In examining my reaction to the situation retrospectively, my first thoughts as this happened were all centered red ray, that is my first impulse was to slam on the brakes and successfully avoid the collision. Then almost immediately after this I shifted in to orange ray territory with the resulting flow of relief / emotion from the event, and my questioning of my degree of contribution to it happening. After about ten minutes thinking on this, my mind wandered in to orange ray as I began to think about how this may have effected the other driver, what he must have been thinking / feeling, how much or little he was at fault, and how I can avoid this from happening in the future. Lastly I spent some time (parked of course) dwelling in green ray as I sent out forgiveness and love to myself and this other fellow.
