LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE

Aura or light. What is that? It is my belief that a person's aura is his spirit that shines a little bit outside his physical body. I want to determine how to see a person's light, what the different colors mean and if changes in a person's light signal a change in health. I will also explore the religious aspects of an aura or light.

The first step is to learn the technique of how to see your or another person's light. It is easy to do. In fact, it is easier than training your eyes to see those 3-D posters! It is just that, training your eyes.

The person who you are observing needs to be standing a few feet away from a white wall. You look at the wall above or around the person or just soften your gaze so that nothing is too much in focus. You will notice a brightness around the person that looks like a lightbulb is burning behind them. Its a bit of a surprise at first, but you are seeing their aura. You can see it around big hair, or a hat. When you shift your vision or focus too sharply, the aura goes away. Don't try too hard, and keep practicing . You can do the same by standing in front of a white wall and looking into a large mirror.

The first day I was able to do this looking at myself in a mirror. I saw a white light around my head, and bright yellow around my arms. From listening to Mark Smith(where I learned this) on the radio, he said that once you see your light, it goes away, and that is because you are surprised and you switch the focus of your eyes and try to look right at the subject, and that's why it disappears. You see the aura from your peripheral vision.

My goal is to look at my light every day so that if changes occur, I can also see what changes occur in my light. I also discovered that it was easier to see my light in the mirror when I wasn't wearing my glasses. Since everything was fuzzy, I wasn't able to focus on anything.

Maybe because it was April fool's day (99), but I was able to see some colors on people today for the first time. As I looked in the mirror at myself, I saw white around my head and a big 8+ inch pink fluffy light around my shoulder and upper arm area. I really don't know what that means right now, but that's what I saw. Then I also saw a little tint of blue around my husband's head. I don't know what that means yet, either.

April 5- I wasn't sure today if I was dong this right or not because of the light I was seeing around myself. I saw white around my head, smokey brown around my arms and that same pink around my legs. I remember Mark Smith saying that a grey aura meant you were sick and he rarely saw that. I have had slight flu symptoms for the past 2 days, but I didn't think I was that sick. Maybe the pink a few days ago was and early indication that I was going to get sick. I wish I knew that answer to that one.

Mid-April - in the past four days, I have seen my aura be white all around arms and head, then I saw the pink color again, and then today I saw a brilliant green. Now that is a new one! I am really curious why the different shifts in colors.

April 16 99- Today I see my light is now again white all over. I am considering how I felt all during the time I was viewing colors like green and pink and brown. All during that time I was not feeling 100% wonderful. I was sore, like you feel after you start exercizing a new muscle, and sometimes dizzy with a headache. And now all those problems are gone and I am seeing a white light again. So my theory would be that those colors were because of physically not feeling well. I would like to test out that theory, but I really don't want to feel yucky in order to do so!

Apr 29 - Last night someone on the Art Bell show called and asked Art about seeing an aura and why it was necessary to see the aura on a background of a white wall and why we can't see it in a dark room, since it is a light. Art didn't have an answer but it seems obvious to me. A person would need to be very spiritual (like Moses) or glorified or an angel before your light would be bright enough to visibly ***shine ***

Ap 2001. We started sitting in a new place in church every Sunday, so that when the person is standing at the podium, they are directly in front of a white wall. So I get to practice looking at the light around everyone who stands up to speak. It is fascinating. To my untrained eye, some have very wide bright auras and others have a thinner one. I have seen a lovely spring green around one woman's arms, and brownish-gray around another person. This particular color has me concerned - but I don't really know what it means.

Aug 2001. I have been able to observe many people in church now that we sit on the side, and I have discovered what the brown-gray is that is surrounding a few people. These people either have had severe accidents or currently have a chronic illness. Two were in serious car accidents, and although they look fine from the outside, there is still problems. One has a chronic health problem and the other is dealing with some emotional problems.

One teen I noticed with this brown aura has me baffled, however. I know him and his family, and without going up and asking his mom if there is any serious health problems going on, I am not sure why he has this aura.

Apr 2002 Its been such a long time since I've seen colors. I still see lots of white aura's in church. Returned missionaries, our Bishop have the strongest, biggest, brightest lights. When we took our son to the Missionary Training Center, the President of the place spoke. I could see a nice light blue around his shoulders. I think blue is the color of a natural teacher. Then at church just the next week, a returned missionary couple spoke. The woman who spoke had a beautiful light green aura around her shoulders. I think green is the healing, balancing aura.

June 2003. Still the best place to see aura's is in church. We had Stake conference with a visiting General Authority from SLC. His aura was big and bright and white. I was only seeing white that evening. But so big.

I prefer to call this halo around a person his light rather than his aura. The term aura seems to be very connected to eastern mistic religions and far-out philosophies that I do not agree with.

But it is very much part of my own religious beliefs and easily explained from the sciptures. Here are some that I have looked up so far:

1. Doctrine & Covenants 93:2 - And that I am the true light that lighteth every man that cometh into the world;

2. D&C 93:9 - The light and the Redeemer of the world; the Spirit of truth, who came into the world, because the world was made by him, and in him was the life of men and the light of men.

3. D&C 93:28,29 - He that keepeth his commandments receiveth truth and light, until he is glorified in truth and knoweth all things. Man was also in the beginning with God. Intelligence, or the light of truth, was not created or made, neither indeed can be.

4. D&C 93:36,37 - The glory of God is intelligence, or, in other words, light and truth. Light and truth forsake that evil one.

5. D&C88: 50,67 - Then shall ye know that ye have seen me, that I am, and that I am the true light that is in you, and that you are in me; otherwise ye could not abound. And if your eye be singel to my glory, your whole bodies shall be filled with light, and there shall be no darkness in you; and that body which is filled with light comprehendeth all things.

6. D&C 84: 45,46 - For the word of the Lord is truth, and whatsoever is truth is light, and whatsoever is light is Spirit, even the Spirit of Jesus Christ. And the Spirit giveth light to every man that cometh into the world; and the Spirit enlighteneth every man through the world, that hearkeneth to the voice of the Spirit.

7. Matthew 17: 1,2 - And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.

8. Exodus 34:28,29 - And he (Moses) was there with the Lord forty days and forty nights; he did neither eat bread, nor drink water. And he wrote upon the tables the words of the covenant, the ten commandments. And it came to pass, when Moses came down from mount Sinai with the two tables of testimony in Moses' hand when he came down from the mount, that Moses knew not that the skin of his face shone while he talked with him.

9. I Nephi:9-10 - And it came to pass that he (Lehi) saw One descending out of the midst of heaven, and he beheld that his luster was above that of the sun at noon-day. And he also saw twelve others following him, and their brightness did exceed that of the stars in the firmament.

10. Helaman 5:36 - And it came to pass that he (some Nephite standing by the prison) turned him about, and behold, he saw through the cloud of darkness the faces of Nephi and Lehi; and behold, they did shine exceedingly, even as the faces of angels...
