A HANDBOOK OF PREKSHA
MEDITATION FOR THE TRAINERS
Muni Mahendra Kumar
PERCEPTION OF PSYCHIC COLOURS
Introduction to be given prior to the exercise:
Our body is surrounded by a coloured envelope known as aura. The colours of
the aura undergo continuous changes in accordance with the changes in our
attitude and emotional pattern. In fact, there is close relation between the
aura and our attitudes and emotions.
We can purify the aura by the purity in our attitudes and emotions, and the
latter can be gauged through the former. In the present exercise, we have to
use our power of visualisation of a particular colour at a particular psychic
centre. Then again, with the mental projection, we have to visualise the same
colour as spreading all around us and permeating the whole aura around us.
Lastly, we have to make use of the technique of auto-suggestion to bring about
the change in our attitude or emotional pattern. Deep concentration and
alertness are of course to be maintained throughout the exercise.
The third step of preksha meditation is Perception of Psychic Colours.

middle of the chest near the heart; try to visualise bright green colour in
that region.

spreading in the psychic centre covering the whole portion upto the back.
If the light does not appear or vanishes after appearance, do not be
disappointed. Intensify your effort for sustained visualisation.
