Aura A Bio-electromagnetic Field
All objects, animate or inanimate, possess an electro-magnetic field. Non-living objects are composed of atoms. These are seen to be unchanging on the surface level. However, at the micro level, they constantly under go fusion and fission, true to their intrinsic nature. Pūrayanti Galayanti Iti Pudgalāh (पूरयन्ति गलयन्ति इति पुद्गलाः)' When atoms of matter get ionized they cause non-living objects to possess an electro-magnetic field.
Similarly, living beings possess what is known as a bio-electro-magnetic field. The bio-electro-magnetic field depends on many factors. One's physical fitness, will-power, spiritual state and karmas determine the clarity and intensity of one's bio-electro-magnetic field. The quality and intensity of the bio-electro-magnetic field vary directly on the first three factors and with the auspicious of the spiritually harmless type of karma (Aghātikarma). It varies inversely with the malefic deeds of the spiritually harmless type (Aghātikarma) and with all the four types of spiritually harmful karmas (Ghātikarma).2

The electro-magnetic field of the non-living and the bio-electro-magnetic field possessed by living beings are both, in scientific terms, known as 'aura'

Auras can be captured on a photographic plate, using a technique known as Kirlian photography. This technique, developed by the Russian scientist Samyon Kirlian, also enables us to obtain coloured images of an aura.
