Radiant energy and Aura

All human beings radiate a powerful light that shines far beyond their physical bodies.

One can see this energy in a faint form especially if a person is sitting against a white wall in indoor light-in the form of flames of light around the head. If one looks at someone, the energy body will become more visible. But this will be in parts as letting the eyes to out of focus shifts the focus of sight to the rods on those cells within the optic nerve that see low intensity light.

Recognizing the Aura

There is another way to see the aura. Note the fragments of light and color that move around a hand or arm as the person \ makes a gesture. Sometimes when the light is right, you can see the field chase after the hand like gossamer light, as the person raises the hands to his head or lower to the table or the arm of chair. The aura seems to be left behind as the hand moves.

Defining the Aura

The auric field is like a big cotton candy hall. When the person is healthy, field is soft, and resilient. Each filament of energy is like glowing spun r. But they ate uniform and in perfect relationship with each other. The shaped energetic 'you' is fuII of energy and surrounds and fills the ceIIs of the body. The energetic body extends about there to five feet beyond the physical body. It has the colors of a rainbow. The field maintains the physical health of a person and the life itself. Mystics say the energy body not die when the physical body goes. But that does not seem to be true. It is the other way round, perhaps. When the energy body decides that it has its work on the earth it leaves the physical body to go to the energetic or spiritual world. The 'I' within one merges with the universal energy body is eternal.
