Prabashvara

For the tantric practice of Prabhashvara, see Luminous mind.

Prabhashvara is the color of the aura of Gautama Buddha. The actual spectrum of his aura consists of five colors:

Pāli:

• nīla (sapphire blue)
• pīta (golden yellow)
• lohitaka (crimson)
• odāta (white)
• mañjeṭṭha (scarlet)

The mixture of those five colors is believed to be Prabhashvara but it is depicted as separate strips of the five colors.
