The Aura of Sri Sathya Sai Baba

 

by Dr. Gamini Karunanayake

M.B.B.S. (Cey.) D.I.H. R.C.P. (Lond). R.C.S. (Eng).

 

Many people believe that all great saints and religious leaders have

a large aura or halo around their bodies.

 

Pictures and drawings of Lord Buddha, Jesus Christ, Prophet Mohamed

and Sai Baba clearly highlight this halo or aura.

 

Most people believed that this so called aura as depicted in the

drawings was a myth and that the haloes were highlighted in order to

enlighten the people about the greatness of these saints.

 

Is this halo or aura a reality or Myth ?

 

It is known that certain people especially those who are developed

spiritually are able to see these auras.

 

In recent times it has been scientifically established that the halo

around people is a reality.

 

An ultra sensitive camera called the `Kirilian camera' originally

produced in 1939 in Russia and subsequently re - invented in 1969 by

an American called " Kendell Johnson" is able to photograph the

haloes around people.

 

Professor Frank Baranowski; an American scientist attached to the

University of Arizona has specialized in Bio - magnetic field

radiation photography. He has photographed and interpreted the auras

of many people with the ultra sensitive Kirilian camera. He

possesses Kirilian photographs showing the energy rays and colours

emanating from different people. It has been found that every one of

us has an aura surrounding our bodies which extends to about 6

inches from our bodies. In people who are highly developed

spiritually like saints and yogis. This aura extends to about 2 feet

from their bodies. The colour of the aura varies from white to pink

and blue.

 

The white in the aura indicates energy and the pink and blue

indicate that the person is extending love and compassion towards

others.

 

Professor Baranowski explains there are five different shades of

auras denoting aesthetic, spiritual, intellectual, physical and

moral aspects. These can all be scientifically explained. Professor

Baranowski who had studied the auras of the great saints and yogis

of India had heard about Sri Sathya Sai Baba. He went to White field

in India and studied the aura around Sai Baba with the help of the

Kirilian camera.

 

He was left breathless by the aura and colours emanating from the

body of Sai Baba. Large thick bands of white, pink and blue flowed

out from Baba's body. The most amazing thing was that there were

thick bands of gold and silver in the aura which he had never seen

in any other human being.

 

These rays of love and energy emanating from Baba were enveloping

the massive crowd at Darshan who had come to see him.

 

These people were absorbing the rays of energy and love given out by

Baba. His aura extended to envelope the area in one mass or cloud of

pink. It was all energy in the form of love that flowed from him.

 

It is said that people who go to see "Sai Baba" come back with

renewed energy. It is like charging ones battery.

 

What about the size of the aura?

 

It was earlier stated that saints and spiritually developed people

have an aura extending up to two feet from their bodies. It is also

said that Lord Buddha had an aura which enveloped an entire city.

 

The aura extending from Baghavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba was so huge

that its margin could not be defined. The aura extended beyond the

horizon.

 

Professor Baranowski has concluded that Baba is not a human being

and that he is a divine personality.

 

"Sai Baba" in his own words say that we are all God. He knows that

he is God, whereas we do not know that we are God, although we have

the potential to be God.
