The Vital Envelope, the Aura, and Its Protection of the Physical Body · Sri Aurobindo Studies

• 0:01
  People speak about an aura surrounding the physical body,
• 0:05
  because many people cannot physically see the aura.
• 0:08
  They remain skeptical about its existence.
• 0:11
  This however is not a proof of its non-existence occultus.
• 0:16
  And those who have developed subtle sense, perception, have
• 0:19
  described the aura around the body over the course of
• 0:22
  thousands of years. Western science has confirmed
• 0:26
  the existence of many unseen things, including electricity,
• 0:30
  Atomic radiation, and gravity. And in recent decades through
• 0:35
  the use of kirlian Photography and meters which can measure
• 0:39
  subtle electrical impulses. They have shown that the aura
• 0:43
  indeed exists. An example of such an experiment
• 0:48
  took place in India to America hospital where a researcher
• 0:52
  invited a layperson to visit his laboratory there, he showed
• 0:56
  kirlian photographs illustrating the aura of various beings, and
• 1:00
  objects since kirlian photography, was treated by many
• 1:04
  as somehow a pseudoscience. He proposed an experiment to
• 1:08
  prove its validity. A subject had his hand
• 1:11
  photographed, and there was a visible but weekly outline Dora.
• 1:16
  He was then asked to chant or pray for a few minutes which he
• 1:20
  did. The next photograph showed a
• 1:23
  very strong and vibrant Aura. Radiating off the fingers, this
• 1:28
  showed, not only the impact of chanting on the aura but also
• 1:32
  showed the kirlian photography was able to show differences.
• 1:37
  Thereby validating its process. Extensive research on the aura
• 1:43
  has shown that various forms of illness are related to a week.
• 1:46
  Or a, or as the mother calls it, the vital envelope various
• 1:51
  emotional states have been shown to strengthen or weaken this
• 1:54
  vital envelope. Fear doubt and anger rage and
• 2:00
  various other emotional states. May either create holes in the
• 2:04
  aura or may create an artificial Spike, which later when it
• 2:09
  receives Is shown to sap the energy, thus compromising the
• 2:14
  Integrity of the aura. The mother indicates that this
• 2:18
  envelope is a strong protection for the physical body, so that
• 2:22
  when it is weekend, it allows various forces or vibrations to
• 2:27
  enter and attack the Integrity of the physical being actions,
• 2:33
  done to strengthen the coherence, and integrity of the
• 2:35
  aura are there for protective of the physical body.
• 2:41
  The mother writes quote, the vital body surrounds, the
• 2:45
  physical body with a kind of envelope, which is almost the
• 2:48
  same density as the vibrations of heat observable when the day
• 2:53
  is very hot. And it is this, which is the
• 2:56
  intermediary between the subtle body and the most material vital
• 3:01
  body. It is this which protects the
• 3:04
  body from all contagion, fatigue exhaustion, and even from
• 3:09
  accidents, Therefore, if this envelope is wholly intact, it
• 3:15
  protects you from everything but a little too strong, and
• 3:18
  emotion, a little fatigued, some dissatisfaction or any shock
• 3:24
  whatsoever is sufficient to scratch it as it were.
• 3:29
  And the slightest scratch allows any kind of intrusion Medical
• 3:34
  Science. Also, now, recognizes that if
• 3:36
  you are in perfect vital equilibrium, you do not catch
• 3:40
  illness or in Case you have a kind of immunity from contagion.
• 3:45
  If you have this equilibrium, this Inner Harmony which keeps
• 3:49
  the envelope intact, it protects you from everything.
• 3:54
  There are people who lead quite an ordinary life, who know how
• 3:57
  to sleep, as one should eat as one should and they're nervous.
• 4:01
  Envelope is so intact that they pass through all dangers as
• 4:06
  though unconcerned. It is a capacity.
• 4:09
  One can cultivate in oneself. If one becomes aware of the weak
• 4:14
  spot in one's envelope, a few minutes concentration, a call to
• 4:19
  the force, and inner peace, is sufficient for it to be.
• 4:23
  All right? Get cured.
