New words are coined along with their specific meanings, but have we noticed ourselves using some words in our daily vocabulary which simply imply our own versions?

Let's take the word 'Strategy', I was shell shocked when my IIM Calcutta Strategy management professor explained the actual meaning. At once come's our response that it means PLANNING but NO - Strategy comes from the Greek word strategia, meaning "generalship." In the military, strategy often refers to the deployment of troops. Anyhow, I am no strategy professor to carry on, instead the content ahead will clear a fallacy we carry about another word "AURA" - Familiar isn't it? A latest addition in our vocabulary! We use it so often as if we were taught in kinder garden but just had a memory lapse for few years.

See - We have been painting pictures of Great saints/ Gods and buying their printed pictures which have a bright halo around their head or encompassing their body. This halo is nothing else but Aura, these magnificent souls were so vibrant that we could see the Aura from our naked eyes, and hence their pictures. Aura can be described as a glowing body that surrounds and inter - penetrates the physical body.

Feel - Do you notice that you are immediately comfortable with some people that you meet and like them instantly, and there are others you are not comfortable with? Did you notice that you get tired when spending time with some people, and with others you get energized? Do you get the strong urge to touch someone in pain, or even put your hands on someone's injury, and have trouble holding yourself back? What makes us feel all this ? All of these sensations are reactions to information coming to us from another person's aura.

Aura is a magnetic field of energy that surrounds each of us, is a refined reflection of everything we think, feel and our health. Now don't just trust my words because I managed to get them printed, as it's the scholars - Boirac & Liebeault, in the early 12th century who saw that the humans have an energy that can cause an interaction between individuals at a distance. In 1959, Dr. Leonard Ravitz at William & Mary University showed that the Aura i.e. Human Energy Field fluctuates with a person's mental, physical and psychological stability.

The Human Energy Field (AURA) is widely known and recognised by the scientific world, Kirlian camera being a milestone. Russian Scientists, Semyon and Valentina Kirlian accidentally discovered this camera in 1939, wherein pictures of living things radiated a bioluminescence - said to be the radiation of the living energy. They came to realize that these emanations were from a unified biological energy field i.e. Aura. Clairvoyance meaning 'clear-seeing' is another method of sensing the aura of a person. Persons who can perceive a picture in the mind, without the use of normal vision like Maharashi Ramanna, Ramkrishna Paramahansa, Lahiri Mahasaya, Edgar Cayce, John Keely, Harry Edward, etc are known as Clairvoyants. They can see colours in the Aura around the person; these colours have an independent interpretation of the health quotient of an organ/ body. Aura can also be sensed between our palms, and so can a dowsing pendulum reveal the health, nature, cause of the problem/s & much more like our state of wish horses - ego, anger, lust, greed etc. But these last two techniques require a neutral mind, years of practice and a focused approach to develop this faculty.

Think! Is our current state of awareness, end of the bible? Is wikipedia a benchmark? Or is there a world beyond it too? When we enter the realms of the occult, we might realise the value of the most valuable gifts of nature.
