In the area of psychic and spiritual study, the aura is the energy field that surrounds the body and reflects our mental and physical condition. The halos you see in traditional religious art represent the aura of the holy person. But most people can’t see the aura and refuse to believe it exists. It may be helpful to know what an aura is and how it works. After all, understanding leads to acceptance.
Little scientific research has been done on the subject of the human aura. However, in 1911, Dr. Walter Kilner published a book in which he claimed that he could see the aura and use it to diagnose disease. Unfortunately, his accuracy was not good. In the mid-20th century, the Russian Semyon D. Kirlian developed a process for photographing the aura, and Kirlian photography became all the rage in the West. Skeptics argue that photography is a trick and have strong arguments to support their doubts. Additionally, digital quacks have been known to alter photographs to create the appearance of an aura, making aura photography a profitable scam game.
Despite misuse of the concept and frauds that may have occurred, the concept of the aura is an ancient one shared by sages and saintly people throughout human history. Modern psychics believe they can see the aura, and scientists have a hard time proving it doesn’t exist.
However, if you are on a spirit journey, the aura can be a very real part of life. A weak aura can indicate illness or psychological stress and trauma. A strong aura reveals good physical and emotional balance and health.
How can I strengthen my aura?
All stars have auras, and as Carl Sagan pointed out, we are made of star stuff. The aura is the area of light or magnetism, sometimes called plasma, that surrounds us. Strengthening the aura implies improving health and, most importantly, improving the spirit. We don’t improve our aura, we improve the inner strength that produces it.
So if you want a stronger aura, you have to work within. Each of us is a spiritual being in human form. But as we are socialized and taught to live in the world of men, we lose touch with our spiritual nature. To strengthen the aura, a person must somehow find a way to rediscover and nurture his spiritual nature.
You need to educate yourself in spiritual matters, either through organized traditional religion or personal research. You must read and study one or all of the major sacred texts: the Christian Bible, the Islamic Qur’an, and the Hindu Bhagavad Gita. So you should put the spiritual principles contained in these texts into your daily life. There is great truth in the old saying: “The truth shall set you free.”
Don’t be fooled by New Age fads and fanciful imaginations. While there may be some truth to approaches like astrology, palm reading, Tarot cards, fortune telling, and other quasi-spiritual pursuits, they miss the heart of the matter: the soul. In fact, they can be a dangerous distraction from true spiritual growth.
Focusing on the light within you is the only way to strengthen the aura. And there are many tools available to help you undertake this endeavor. Meditation is probably the best known and most powerful method, and it takes a lot of learning, practice, and patience to become an effective meditator for this purpose. A little research will reveal that there are many well-accepted meditation techniques. It may help to start with some simple yoga, exercises that help you stretch, learn to discipline your breathing, and find your inner spiritual center.
A stronger aura is the happy byproduct of hard spiritual work. Other by-products are better physical and emotional health, inner peace and tranquility, and the joy of a clear awareness of the strong relationship between stars and humans. We are all made of star stuff. That’s what the aura is all about. stellar matter.
