Seeing the Aura

This exercise is designed to see Auras for the first time and/or practise seeing Auras. This was taught to me during Pranic Healing Studies, where we practice all day.

  • Choosing good conditions is important: not only you see the Aura better, but also to gain a confidence about what you see. Situate the person in front of a very softly illuminated PLAIN WHITE background. A colour background will change Aura colors, so you need additional knowledge about combining colors. Some combinations of background and Aura colors may cause misinterpretation problems.
  • Choose ONE SPOT to look at. The middle of the forehead is VERY GOOD. This is a location of so called Brow Chakra or the Third Eye. In some cultures (India) they put a mark on a forehead. Such a mark in ancient times could mean the invitation to look and see the Aura.
  • Look at this spot for 30 to 60 seconds or longer
  • After 30 seconds analyze your surroundings with your peripheral vision, while still looking at the same spot. Continuing the concentration is most important. Resist the temptation to look around. You should see that the background nearby the person is brighter and has a DIFFERENT colour than the background further away. This is your own perception of the Aura. The longer you concentrate, the better you will see it. Remember, concentration on one spot increases your sensitivity by accumulating the effect of the Aura vibration reaching your eyes.

See the Aura through your minds eye

  • After concentrating long enough to see the aura, close your eyes. For a second or two you will see the Aura ONLY. Be prepared. You have only one second or two until your photosensitive cells will stop vibrating and sending visual sensations to the brain. And if you miss it, you have to start concentrating again. Try to experiment with how fast or slow you should close your eyes.

Observing Auras of other people

The best is to look directly at someone’s brow chakra (third eye or wisdom eye, which is located @1.5 cm above the nose, between eyes) and aim to achieve a state of mind similar to the concentration technique described above for at least 30-60 seconds. I have tried also looking at throat and heart chakras with similar results. However, if you concentrate on someone’s chest it looks so unusual that the person concerned is usually very uneasy about it. When you look into someone’s brow chakra you can actually continue the conversation.

Again, VERY softly illuminated background, with no shadows is best. With practice, any uniformly illuminated background (such as a blue sky for example) will suffice.

How to see your own Aura

Stand about 1.5 m in front of a good size mirror. In the beginning, it is best if the background behind you is plain white and there are no shadows. Illumination should be VERY soft and uniform not bright. Follow the instructions above for seeing Auras.

PRACTICE for at least 10-15 minutes each day to increase your sensitivity and develop Auric sight. Still it can take a little while.

Are my eyes playing tricks on me?

The answer is no, you have just learnt to pay attention to what your eyes are capable of. Light sensors in our eyes (Red Green and Blue) are vibration sensors that are highly non-linear and they have memory. The consequence of memory is that they can oscillate for up to several seconds after the visual stimulation has been discontinued.

This memory of visual stimulation is frequently perceived as an afterimage. After images have precisely the same shape as the original images. Afterimage of an object surrounded by its Aura is larger than the original image. The increase in such afterimage is due to the vibration of an Aura and actually represents a “snapshot” of an Aura. It is therefore essential to focus at one spot when watching the Aura and resists the temptation to change the point of focus, otherwise, an image of the Aura may become confused with the afterimage of an object.
