Uploaded by UCtelevision on Jan 31, 2008

Love this topic. My mom saw auras all of her life. I don't know if she knew, but the specific colors she saw meant the same as what others see.

@yourtube20061 Not if it is empirical, then it is “24 Karat knowledge”. Dogma = established belief, not knowledge. The only way to find out if things are empirical is to hypothesize and experiment. Besides, in the scientific community, especially neuroscience, everything is disputable, even if you are pissing on someone else’s tenure.
