There are far too many people who think the opposite.

Many people believe that being able to read other people's minds is a spiritually amazing thing, and that it becomes a criterion for evaluation. However, even if the astral aura of emotions merges, the true nature is not understood. Even if the "karana" (causal body, cause body) that becomes the cause of things merges, only the merging of karma and a series of rebirths occurs, and it does not necessarily lead to a new understanding (as a whole of both auras), but simply shares an understanding.

Moreover, since that understanding has no foundation, the process of understanding is often missing, and in that case, a fundamental understanding cannot be achieved.

Even if you can read other people's minds at that level, it is not very meaningful, and at best, it can only surprise spiritual beginners, and it is far from a fundamental understanding.

What can be known through these methods is only superficial feelings and fragmentary thoughts. It may help to elicit empathy or assist in analysis, but it can only be a supplementary tool. Despite being only that, as a side effect, it merges with the other person's emotions and karma, which can lead to a dragging of reincarnation, which is a very poor cost-performance ratio.

Basically, except for family and people you are close to and trust, there is no need to merge auras. Moreover, with strangers, you don't even know who they are, so it is better not to easily exchange or merge auras.

The basic principle is to stabilize the aura, which is the first step in spirituality. However, when the aura becomes scattered and unstable, leading to a state of spiritual possession, you may find out the feelings of others through aura merging, and you may think that you are spiritually superior, but that is simply a misunderstanding.
