The Body of Light
 Everything that exists is energy in motion. The only difference between soul and body, consciousness and matter is the rate of vibration. Only the Absolute--God in Primal State--does not vibrate and is at perfect peace. When God stirred, the universe was born.
The motion of energy at the time of what is known as Creation first manifested as cosmic light and cosmic sound. The vibration of this conscious energy became progressively more gross until it metamorphosed into the material world. The afterlife, which is a level of reality that vibrates at a higher rate to the material plane, therefore existed before the material universe. Similarly, consciousness and the life force itself are the vibration of energy at different frequencies.

SPIRIT WORLD QUOTES
“People shouldn’t worship my bones…we reside in our bodies and then we move on.”
Albert Einstein.

Indian mysticism calls the life force that animates matter “prana.” (The Chinese call this same energy Chi.) It is the missing link between consciousness and matter. Prana is finer than atomic energy and permeates everything. It is the substance of the heavenly worlds and the life principle of the earthly world. Prana takes two forms: the cosmic vibratory energy that is omnipresent in the universe, structuring and sustaining all things; and the specific aura that sustains each human body or life form.
In short you, and I, are made of both matter and prana--body and spirit. I am further blessed to be able to see prana.
SEEING THE SPIRIT BODY
Ever since I was about 6 years old, I noticed shimmering lights around people's heads. As a child, I had no idea what caused this effect. In fact, I just assumed that everyone saw it too. In some questioning of adults, however, I was met with reactions of surprise and disbelief. Over the years since, however, I have learned to trust that special vision that I have.
I now know that the lights I saw then, and still see, are what mystics call the aura. You may also be able to see or sense it; for example, notice a “shining” around a person's head, or get a “feeling” of someone’s mood. It might help to think of it as a tenuous “atmosphere” surrounding the human body--just as the planet Earth has an atmosphere.
The aura is an energy field--it's our individual life force.
RELIGION AND THE SPIRIT BODY
 Recognition of the fact that humans are surrounded by an aura dates back millennia. Christian saints are, of course, traditionally shown with a halo around the head. The ancient Egyptians did the same when portraying their gods or important human beings, as did the Hindus, Buddhists, Greeks, and Romans. These expressions of belief continue to the present. The aura is generally recognized as having seven layers. Most psychics see only the first three--those closest to the physical body. The outer auric layers are concerned with the soul and spirit, whereas the inner auric layers relate to mind, emotions, and health.
The aura is shaped like an egg made of fibrous light surrounding the whole of the body. To some, it is like a heat haze, radiating from the person, shimmering with light and energy. It contains every color imaginable, including those beyond the visible spectrum. Or, as Sir Winston Churchill put it, "I expect orange and vermilion will be the darkest and dullest colors and beyond them will be a whole range of wonderful new colors which will delight the celestial eye."
THE SPIRIT BODY & EDGAR CAYCE
 During the 1930’s, the famous American psychic visionary Edgar Cayce was able to give startlingly accurate medical diagnoses based upon the colors and information he perceived while in the astral state within his patients' aurae. A perceptive psychic will notice various colors in the aura that indicate a person's state of mind and physical health. Students in my workshops, which have included nurses and doctors, report being able to sense hot or cold spots, and some have even learned to see and feel the “black spots,” or gaps, within another person's auric structure.
The aura is in a constant state of flux, reaching out and pulling in depending on how we relate and react to the world. The color of the aura also changes constantly with every emotional experience and thought. There may be a dominant color that stays with the person throughout life, but many of the colors change from day to day
