Subj : Protective Clothing Certain types of cloth are effective to wear as protective mechanism. Cotton allows the vibrations to go outward. On the other hand, silk, nylon, and synthetics all weaken your vibrations, holding them in. If you are a woman and you want to be alluring to your husband or boyfriend, wear cotton. Don't wear plastics, synthetics, nylon, or silk. They hold your vibration in as well as keep other people's vibrations out by preventing vibrations from entering into your aura. If, however, you are trying to absorb somebody's vibration--for instance, if you are visiting a sage, or the Dalai Lama, and you want to capture this vibration--wear wool. Wool absorbs and holds vibrations. The sufi mystics of the past made extensive use of wool and often wore it as their regular ritual clothing. Infact the word Sufi may derive from the arabic word "suf'" which means wool. The reason they wore wool was to absorb spiritual vibrations while meditating.
