The missing link uncovered..
There is a lot of matter already available on the internet, regarding the link between Aurora Borealis and Aura... :D

The missing link...
Auroral mechanism (Aurora Borealis)
Aurorae are produced by the collision of charged particles from Earth's magnetosphere, mostly electrons but also protons and heavier particles, with atoms and molecules of Earth's upper atmosphere (at altitudes above 80 km (50 miles). The particles have energies of 1 to 100 keV. They originate from the Sun and arrive at the vicinity of Earth in the relatively low-energy solar wind. When the trapped magnetic field of the solar wind is favourably oriented (principally southwards) it reconnects with Earth's magnetic field, and solar particles enter the magnetosphere and are swept to the magnetotail. Further magnetic reconnection accelerates the particles towards Earth.
The collisions in the atmosphere electronically excite atoms and molecules in the upper atmosphere. The excitation energy can be lost by light emission or collisions. Most aurorae are green and red emission from atomic oxygen. Molecular nitrogen and nitrogen ions produce some low level red and very high blue/violet aurorae. The light blue colors are produced by ionic nitrogen and the neutral nitrogen gives off the red and purple color with the rippled edges. Different gases interacting with the upper atmosphere will produce different colors, caused by the different compounds of oxygen and nitrogen. The level of solar wind activity from the Sun can also influence the color of the aurorae.(wikipedia)
Aura
The essential nature of the aura usually seen is astral and electrovital. The magnificent phenomena of radiation that astronomers can discern at times of eclipse, long streamers with rosy and other colored light flashing forth from the body of the sun, are not flames nor anything of the sort, but are simply the electrovital aura of the solar body - a manifestation of solar vitality, for the sun in occultism is a living being, as indeed everything else is.
An extremely subtle and therefore invisible essence or fluid that emanates from and surrounds not only human beings and beasts, but as a matter of fact plants and minerals also. The aura is one of the aspects of the auric egg and therefore the human aura partakes of all the qualities that the human constitution contains. (www.experiencefestival.com)
Aura photography and Kirlian photography are two different schools of thought regarding the same topic -- how to photograph the electromagnetic field which surrounds the human body. And not just the human body, all living things are surrounded by an electromagnetic field which many refer to as an aura.
It looks like there could be link between formation of Aurora Borealis and Auras of other living beings …!!

Everyone is surrounded by an electromagnetic field, and this field is called an aura. The aura has been depicted throughout history in literature and paintings.

Education
Following are Six schools of Indian philosophy..
Yoga
Practical methods for direct experience: Yoga systematically deals with all of the levels of one's being, striving to experience the eternal center of consciousness. Yoga is best described in the Yoga Sutras and involves systematic witnessing of your inner states, so as to experientially go beyond all of them to the center of consciousness. Yoga is often called Sankhya-Yoga, as Yoga contains the practical methods to realize in direct experience the truths of Sankhya philosophy.
Sankhya
Framework of manifestation: Sankhya philosophy offers a framework for all the levels of manifestation, from the subtlest to the grossest. Sankhya comes from samyag akhyate, which literally means that which explains the whole. Sankhya deals with prakriti (matter), purusha (consciousness), buddhi or mahat (intelligence), ahamkara (I-am-ness), three gunas (elements of stability, activity, and lightness), mind (manas), cognitive and active senses (indriyas), and the five subtle and gross elements (earth, water, fire, air, and space). In light of its breadth, it contains all of the domains of Vaisheshika, Nyaya, and Mimasa, which are described below.
Vedanta
Contemplative self-inquiry: Vedanta philosophy and practice provides contemplative methods of self-inquiry leading to the realization of one's true nature, that which is not subject to death, decay, or decomposition. A major key of these practices is contemplation on the Mahavakyas. The teachings of Vedanta are best captured in the books of the Upanishads. The text, Vivekachudamini (Crest Jewel of Discrimination) by Adi Shankaracharya is an excellent source, and is available in English translation.
Vaisheshika
Physical sciences: The Vaisheshika system was developed by Prashastapada and emphasizes the physical sciences such as chemistry. It includes exploring the elements of earth, water, fire, air and space, as well as time, mind and soul.
Nyaya
Reasoning: The Nyaya system was founded by the ancient sage Gautama, and deals with logic, the process of reasoning. Doubt is considered a prerequisite for philosophical inquiry. Other systems of Indian philosophy draw on this process.
Mimasa
Freedom through action: The Mimasa system was founded by Jaimini and pursues freedom through action. It has a detailed philosophy related to ritual, worship and ethical conduct, which developed into the philosophy of karma.

These can sound boring to some of us, but the relevance of these schools to our lives could never be overlooked. Which is why, they have been a part of us and our system for ages but in many manipulated way.
If these schools of immense importance get reintroduced in our elementary school education system in a simple yet effective way, they can promise inner growth (education) than just literacy. Literacy is not as much an issue in cities nowadays, quality education is.
Let’s get our foundations right; get answers to our ‘whys’ (which apparently get curbed in the disciplined/strict education system) and then move on to not just solving tough bookish mathematical problems or understanding economic curves but also know our reasons of understanding them and also to be able to use them more effectively.

a very interesting read..
a very interesting read..
Beyond..
The above visual is to support the text underneath (but while I was watching the dot on the white ground above... i could see a halo like glow around it within a few seconds.. visual illusion..!!)I tried to move beyond myself and look at the world from a completely different perspective. Moving beyond the comfortable zone of what I think the world is and how it works, and understanding it from another human’s point of view that is completely unlike me, has grown up in a totally different environment with completely different experiences a completely different mindset, and follows a different set of aesthetics and culture…it’s like living another life…
No rules that I set for myself, or the understanding that I develop in my life, from my life or otherwise could apply there. It’s like starting afresh with a completely new hardware, software, system software, the operator... just about everything. I think I will live exactly like this human being does…
Sometimes it really looks like we are all designed to be a certain way…and that there is a designer…!
