Dear James,
 
Somebody (Mango?) asked: 
>> are you also saying that most or all of the aura-photo's are just faked ?
 
James answered: 
>IMHO, yes.
 
Wim answered: 
IMHO, yes as well.
 
I am often invited to demo my stuff (Aura and Chakra biofeedback imaging) at 
Health and Wellness conventions. Invariably there will be ppl. at those 
shows who demonstrate "aura photographs" produced with a Polaroid setup and 
a bit of hohum. (Sorry, I didn't mean to make fun of it, but then...) Shades 
of auric colours are super-imposed on a picture of a client as though 
emanating from it. The aura colours are computer generated, the 
practitioners know this but they are not freely saying so to the public, and 
if they do they are often miffed by the owner of the apparatus. The 
biofeedback machine that I use also displays an image of an aura. Note, NOT 
something that looks like a photo, but a computer generated image, also NOT 
layered over the body image of a client. Even though my equipment is able to 
"fake it" so to say, I don't know of any of our practitioners that do that. 
They all take a courses in Vancouver where we stress integrity, truthfulness 
and compassion. What is the difference in technology? None too much, I use a 
highly sophisticated computer setup that reads energy from a clients full 
palm of the left hand. It in fact registers galvanic skin response and 
muscle tension from specific areas on the palm, areas that are representing 
acupuncture or reflex points. The energy of 40 organs and body parts gets 
graphed on the screen and the data that is coming from the readings are 
simultaneously used to form a simulated computer generated picture of the 
human aura, the way a very highly gifted claivoyant would see it. 
Mathemeatical formulas are used to process the numerical data and the 
outcome is uncannily accurate. It took three years to develop the equipment. 
The aura that it produces is a cross section of the whole body aura, a aura 
slice so to speak, about  3 to 6 inches in front of the human body. It is 
uncannily accurate. If not, let's say if the hand is not positioned properly 
on the hand pad, the practitioner can tell the difference because most of 
them are intuitives. Besides there are other logistical ways to check the 
integrity of the data. In my case, I see the aura physically floating on my 
client's skin or emanating from it. I tell my clients that the image is 
computer generated so as to leave no doubt. The aura imaging systems that I 
know work from the same principle, and I have seen a few, it is just that 
the number of electrodes is normally very limited. Also not all computer 
programs are as sophisticated. The aura image of the simple systems is still 
very close to what a beginner clairvoyant is able to see. The interpretation 
of these simpler images requires a very good intuitive person to analyse and 
interpret the colours accurately.
 
Kirlian photography is indeed photography, and nowadays not only the the 
corona discharge can be recorded on film also surrounding auric sheens and 
discharges are being picked up. I have worked intensively with some of the 
latest equipment but found it not advanced enough to show as enough clarity 
and conviction as the data that reflex points can generate. Also the 
practitioner/analyst needs to be highly intuitive to be able to do effective 
counselling. 
I expect though that Kirlian type of photography has much to offer and... 
discover in the future, wish there were more research dollars available for 
it and that it could be taken out of the scientific fringe area. At one 
point I was energetically manipulating and extracting a tumor from a 
client's meninges and lo and behold something was recorded on the Kirlian 
picture that was made of my hand a little later, showing my finger tips and 
some blob as though moving fiercely away from my fingers. 
That was fascinating... but I could not easily use the picture for analysis 
and guidance for the client and that is what counts. A real time biofeedback 
healing tool that shows differing aura colours as energy balancing occurs is 
more important and effective than a tool to may show something after the 
fact as some kind of proof. And proof does not prove too much to an non 
trusting society anyway.
 
I hope that my comments are  somewhat relevant to the aura discussions. I 
seems that I did not see all of the messages of this thread, I must have 
missed a few posts.
 
With love and regards, 
Wim
