So I asked questions and pointed out the conflicts. Weather you know the answers or not they would have to be solved in order for the idea to be accepted. EM fields are generated by charges, and can only be altered by other charges and magnetic fields. If a healer was healing someone, he/she would have to influence the aura (EM field) in a similar way. A contradiction to this would mean a complete overall of the physics behind the electromagnetic force physics models today. These theories drive everything our society runs on today, literally. We generate power in power plants, build computers and electronics, and study stars, and all of it depends on what we know about these physical laws. You we're mostly right when you said "As everything that is in our reality is created from electromagnetic energy...." I'm just wondering why this implies the existence of an aura.

As for dreaming, I keep a note book full of ideas that come to my head, but many of them turn out to be improvable or unreasonable. I take what I know about the Universe, know what is impossible (but not improbable) and go from there. It's the same reason why no physics student would pursue a perpetual motion machine as a graduate project. Plus I find understanding the physical world (especially astronomy) to be much more interesting then any philosophical one.
