IS THIS YOUR BODY AURA !

One part of energy has manifested itself into a certain level of reverberation which makes it a physical form. The other part of energy also has a form. That form which is not physical but still maintains a form, is being called aura. It is a field of light and energy around the body. Essentially, the physical, mental, emotional and energy status of who you are right now is represented by your aura in a certain way; it is visible through the aura.

Auras are of many kinds. One can carry anything from a pitch black aura to a pure white aura. Between these two, there are millions of shades. In all this, only two types of auras are of significance. When you are in a state of realisation, your aura will be pure white. When a yogi who has experienced realisation chooses to make himself dynamic, the aura will become electric blue. It is in this context we refer to certain great beings of the past as "the blue ones".

For different requirements, one may change the nature of the aura. The energy is different. The aura is different. The person is different. Everything is different. Because, to do a particular kind of work, you need a certain kind of aura. The aura is just an indicator. The aura is not the real thing.

Don't try to see people's auras. The aura is the periphery of the person. Look a little more at the core of the being rather than looking at the surface. The surface is for doctors because they want to fix a physical part that may be going wrong. The surface should not be the interest of a spiritual seeker. What you call aura is even more superficial than the skin because it's even further out.

It is said that "beauty is skin-deep". A certain type of beauty is skin-deep. If you see someone with skin peeled off, you wouldn't think she is beautiful. But the aura is not even skin-deep, so it is not worth spending time on it. If you become conscious of the core, the surface may be visible to you, but trying to see and read people's aura will be a waste of your time. If your perception is enhanced, you may see things. It is good to see things which are there. If you start seeing things which are not there, that's the first step towards insanity. So you must be focused on the core, not on the surface.

All those who believe they are spiritual but who are really not, they are the biggest deterrent for others to seek any spirituality. Because of too many people like this, right-thinking people who are a little more sensible don't want to have anything to do with spirituality.

If you have the necessary insight, the aura may give you access to the nature of the person, but you are only looking at the psychological, emotional and physical structure of the human being. On the spiritual path, it is best to ignore the aura ^ yours and everybody else's ^ and focus on the core. If you are focused on the core, you will have a wonderful aura. If your focus is on the surface, you will have a miserable aura. So don't keep looking at your and other people's auras. It's time you looked at the core of yourself and the other. If you look at the core of yourself, then naturally you will see the core of everything because in the core, "this and that" does not exist. In the core, only "this" exists. Only on the surface, "this and that" exists.

LIFE IS A PROCESS OF TRANSFORMATION !

You have to learn to frame an experience in such a way that there is growth. Your focus is to convert ` samsara' into `nirvana' or bondage into salvation. For that to happen, what is important is atma smaranam or self-remembrance.

If we can remember to be constantly awake to our inner world of thoughts, interpretations, emotions, likes and dislikes, a new level of reality will open up and thus we will be free from our inner prisons.

There are both legitimate fears and illegitimate fears. When a tiger comes near you, there is fear, and it is a legitimate fear. The fear of the future is not legitimate. In fact it is interesting, even exciting, not to know about the future.

A lady came to me and said, "I am afraid of what my future is going to be since my husband's company has been taken over by another company." I told her that it is not something she has to be afraid of. Look into your life... lots of wonderful things have happened. You were born in a poor family, and see how well placed you are now. So, draw your energy from the best things which have happened to you.

As children we don't have fear. Elders sow the concept of fear. Then fear becomes a part of us. A child easily falls. Then a fear is installed. Slowly as the child grows up he is afraid to fall. The body becomes rigid and resists a graceful fall.

In martial art we are taught to fall gracefully, but the mind creates the fear of injury and makes the body rigid. There is a process one has to unlearn in martial art... not to bring in the mind so that you can be free to learn to fall gracefully. Then a fall has an element of pleasure.

A person who lives only in the level of senses and sense pleasure is at one level. Another person who has developed the joy of opening up the body lock and the energies hidden in the body by right dieting, right exercise... is at another level.

The next level is that of a person who has opened the emotional lock. He brings in the energies of love, compassion and gratitude instead of anger and jealousy... he has opened up his emotions.

One is at yet another level when one has opened the intellectual lock... the energies of right thinking, having the right clarity and intelligence.

Finally, what about one who has opened up the spiritual lock, the hidden energies in oneself? This happens when there is inner purity and inner calmness. Such a person is at the highest level.

Life is a combination of ignorance and knowledge. It needs fine-tuning. Suppose your house has Italian marble but if it is not polished, then it will look like ordinary flooring. Similarly, you have knowledge but if it is not polished with humility and understanding, then such knowledge will not shine forth.

Look at life with awareness. Everyone at some level is stupid, is helpless and this recognition helps us to act wisely. If people think, "I know, i need not change," such knowledge will bind a person; it will not free him.

COURAGE TO FACE LIFE !


Courage, it would seem, is nothing less than the power to overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there is always tomorrow.

MEASURE OF A HAPPY LIFE !


There are as many nights as days, and the one is just as long as the other in the year's course. Even a happy life cannot be without a measure of darkness, and the word 'happy' would lose its meaning if it were not balanced by sadness.

LIFE DOES MATTER EACH DAY !


How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.

And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years.

Do you make conscious efforts to improve yourself ?
