Our great tasks: the revelation of self and the evolution of consciousness.

The word aura means "light" and refers to the facets of coloured light within each of us. Soma refers to the being who resides inside the body. In Greek, soma means "body"; in Aramaic "being"; in Sanskrit "living energies"

as in the perspective of quantum physics-that all matter is light vibrating at different frequencies-human beings are, at a cellular level, bio-photons, taking in and giving out light.
