Interesting note from an Ayurveda class I did recently,
All the 3 doshas in our body – Vaat, Pitta, Kapha – have 5 sub-types each. One of the sub-doshas of Pitta is Ranjaka.
Ranjaka Pitta is what gives the human blood – it’s color, which is red. “Ranj” comes from the word Rang or color. This color is only one of the outcomes of Ranjaka pitta’s function – which is to take the output of digested food and convert it into vibrance and energy in our system.
Thus, very clearly at the micro-functioning level of the body, the Red color and Vibrance in our body is connected. I haven’t delved too deep into Ranjaka’s working. But I found it interesting because,
I have earlier come across this relation between red and vibrancy from Sadhguru when he spoke of the Devi,
“In the tradition, Devi has always been red, since red is the most vibrant color – and feminine represents that. Devi spaces always have very active involvement of red in many ways.” (Source)
Knowing about a fundamental connection of our red blood color and vitality/vibrance in our body was very interesting. I am yet to understand this better but wanted to share with you all.
