Description
This book teaches Kilner's techniques on how to learn to view the Human Aura (Atmosphere). Through homemade materials, anyone can learn how to view the Human Aura.

Summary
This was a study conducted by Walter J. Kilner at the turn of the twentieth century regarding the viewing (and necessary training to view unassisted) of the Human Aura. He documents what he has been able to view, as well as how he was able to achieve his goals.

Excerpt
(Preface) The perception of the Human Atmosphere or Aura, by the sole employment of material means, at once makes the phenomenon a physical question. From the first moment of seeing the human atmosphere, I determined to investigate the subject apart from all occultism; and, to remain unbiased, did not read any accounts of the Aura until a large number (over sixty) of patients had been inspected. As all the descriptions and references to the Aura that could be found were, without exception, in occult works, and afforded little assistance to physical investigation, I have decided to insert no quotations. This resolution places me in a peculiar position of having no authorities to fall back upon, which in some ways is an advantage, and a disadvantage in others. The title of Human Atmosphere - a happy inspiration of a friend - is especially appropriate to the subject, because it conveys a clear idea to the general public, while the tern "Aura" notwithstanding its definition - "any subtle, invisible emanation, effluvium, or exhalation from a substance, as aroma of flowers, etc." (Webster's Dictionary) - is confined to people possessing some knowledge of occultism. The word Aura has, however, been retained for shortness and convenience, as "Atmosphere" would be misleading when used alone, and when combined with "Human" is, to say the least, cumbersome. After what has been said about the desire to be perfectly free from Occultism, it may seem strange that the expression Etheric Double has been employed. This name was borrowed from theosophic books, as no appropriate term has yet been devised. W.J.K. 218 Ladbroke Grove, London
