Thread Name: BS: Auras and Chanting
Subject: RE: BS: Auras and Chanting
Yeah. Auras are real. They appear to be an energetic field of some sort that interacts with the nervous system and the body. Some people can see them and work with them. Most do not see them under normal conditions. I have a very limited ability to see auras under the right lighting conditions (dimly lit) and if I'm quite relaxed and not thinking about anything much at the time. (in other words, the nervous mind gets in the way, at least for me)

When I do see them, it's not by any plan or purpose on my part...it just happens, that's all.

Chanting is a good way of relaxing the mind, which can be useful in meditation and probably in a number of other activities. It's a focusing and relaxing tool. Some know how to use it to considerable effect. Most do not. I have a very limited awareness of how to use it, but I've seen good effects from using it.

I figure your chiropractor is probably doing some reasonably good stuff there.

I will add that women, on the average, are far more likely to be interested in such matters in the first place and to develop some facility with them than most men are. Why that is, I do not know, but I've heard that women, on average, are more spiritually developed than men... (and I don't doubt it, frankly)

There are some men who are exceptions to that, however. And some women too, of course. I have personally known some women who were probably not much more spiritually adept than your average toadstool. ;-)

I will also say this: most people fear what they do not understand. Whenever an esoteric or unusual subject like this one comes up in a thread, you can be guaranteed to hear their predictable responses...which will be to deny, scoff, ridicule, warn of dire dangers, etc...

The only thing that matters about this chiropractor is this: do the treatments she gives you work? Is she an effective chiropractor? If so, you have no problem. Her willingness to talk to you and explain something a little unusual she is doing is a sign of her openness and honesty. She evidently trusts you enough to feel safe being honest and open. It's up to you if you want to betray that trust by reacting fearfully to something you are unfamiliar with, which is what several people here are advising you to do. If so, you would be taking on their fears...
