English: Cosmic beings are of four types; those belonging to the third type have yellow aura.

There are four types of cosmic beings. They are known as Bhavanapati, Vyantar, Jyotishka and Vaimanik. They have different aura.ranging from black to white. But the Jyotishka beings have only yellowish. All of them, except perhaps those of the second type, lead a happy and luxurious life. Because of the austerities, restraints, etc. observed in the previous lives, they are imbibed with much physical strength and are equipped with various accomplishments inclusive of the capability to move in any part of the universe.
