Question
Hello,I would like to ask,what about the punishment after breaking rules or something,,and if your aura can become clearest after meditation...?thank you,,, your sincerely...Martin

Answer
Hi Martin,

Thank you for asking me.

There is nothing in Buddhism about punishing anyone.  The Buddha's teachings are about peace and contentment.  If anyone breaks any universal rule of nature, let him face the consequence generated by the natural law of retribution.

About one's aura, I would assume that the person must be very advanced in mental cultivation to be able to see the aura.  When one is pure, one's aura will definitely be bright. If one is evil, no amount of meditation will brighten up one's aura.
