Question
Hi,my name is Kalino I got into zen meditation three months ago my question to you is there anything like a prayer that I could say that will change my karma, and that will make my aura alot stronger when Im practing zen.

Answer
Hi Kalino,
 The object of Zen meditation is to stop your mind and you can do this from chanting to. There are not prayers in Zen like in other religions. You can read about some Buddhist chants here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buddhist_chant
By changing your life, doing good, having good intention and actions you are changing your karma.  Karma is cause and effect and as you clear the obstacles out of your life you will be on the path to better living.
 I hope this helps you. take care,
         Joe
