study on the point of view of the aura

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to present one view regarding Kansei Experience in the zone with the happiness one feels when playing sports. Firstly, the characteristics of the zone experiences collected by Murphy and White, the characteristic properties of flow experiences organized by Csikszentmihalyi, and Kansei experiences gathered by Shiki and Fukubayashi were compared. Next, 19 athletes and coaches who represent top-level sports in Japan and internationally were interviewed about the zone and Kansei. Then, the results of the survey were analyzed from the point of view of the human energy field called aura. As a result, it is suggested that Kansei experience in the zone is involved in flow experience and is related to aura that can be felt not by eye sight but by extrasensory perception. It is revealed that the Kansei experience in the zone can be classified into 30 characteristics.
