Discovery of Auras

In 1908 Dr. Walter J. Kilner made an important discovery by which people could see the auras. He divided auras into three parts:

a)  A narrow and transparent dark space called etheric double.

b)  The nearly constant and densest portion called inner aura.

c)  The inconstant portion that blended into the inner aura, called outlet aura.

Kilner said that aura reflected the state of health and he formulated a method of auric diagnosis of illness by 1911. Oscar Begnall, who developed a screen which could also be worn as eyeglasses called aura-goggles, continued Kilner's work. Around the same time, C.W. Leadbeater published h is remarkable work about seeing men clairvoyantly.

In the early 1940s, Russian electrician and inventor, Semyon Kirlian developed a technique for photographing the bio-fields or auras. His work was brought to the West in the 1960s. Health and emotions are revealed in Kirlian photos by changes in the brightness, colors and patterns of light in auras. Thelma Moss and Kendall Johnson of University of California at Los Angeles observed changes in a plant's glow as the human hand approached it and pricked it. A team of scientists including Moss and Kendall further observed similar changes in humans' glow with changes in their emotional states. Photographs of psychic Uri Geller from Tel Aviv and of other psyches revealed flares of light emanating from their fingertips when engaged in their work. Some experiments reporting diagnosis of cancer through Kirlian photography have been successful. Energy or color fields were always seen around plants, animals and persons by famous mediums such as Edgar Cayce and Eileen J. Garrett. In the 1950s, Dr Mikhail Kuzmich Gaikin and Vladislav Mikalevsky of Russia developed an electronic device, which could pinpoint nearly 700 Chinese acupuncture points through aura photographs.

As observed by Elizabeth Fuller (1989), medical science now recognizes aura as a thin pulsating field around the human body. According to clairvoyants, health and emotions are shown through different colors, energy patterns and breaks, and through clear and muddy spots in the aura. Healers have observed that illness manifests first in the etheric body, which is closest to the physical body, several days, months or even years before the appearance of physical symptoms in the body.
