The
Akashic Records have been in existence since the beginning of this
time-space experience and have been referred to in every ancient
spiritual teaching throughout history. The Records have been referred to
as the Cosmic Mind, the Universal Mind, the Collective Consciousness,
the Universal Records, and are known in the Bible as The Book of Life.
The Akashic Records are the individual records of a soul from the time
it leaves it’s point of origin until it’s return. At the time that a
soul makes the decision to experience life as an independent entity,
there is a field of energy generated by that experience. That field of
energy is impressed on a subtle substance called Akasha.
Every thought,
word, emotion, and action generated by each soul’s experience is
recorded on the Akasha. In Hindu mysticism Akasha is thought to be the
primary principle of nature from which the other four natural
principles, fire, air, earth, and water, are created. There is a
recording in the Records for virtually all creation, including every
person, place and event.
Everyone has the ability to gain access into the Akashic Records.
Intuition, knowing hunches or flashes, and the quiet inner guidance of
the Higher Self are often due to knowledge gained from the Records. However, doubt, fear and ego can interfere with the information
received. When we receive information that elicits fear or doubt, we
often add, delete, change, or filter the information, which dilutes or
neutralizes the usefulness of the knowledge.
Manifestation of reality begins with intention. Once we form an
intention, we have set a new possibility for reality into motion. We are
constantly manifesting our reality whether we choose to be consciously
aware of it or not. Every thought that we have creates a domino effect
that resonates far beyond what we see manifest in front of us. Questions
asked while in the Records can reveal past and future consequences of
choices that we have made or will make.
Sometimes we become lost within
our own illusion of reality and lose sight of what we had originally
intended. We can become distracted by a new idea, person or possibility
that comes into our awareness; and when we turn our attention in that
direction, we often forget which path we were moving towards before the
new opportunity presented itself.
This does not suggest that we must
always stay on our current course, it simply means that it is empowering
to consciously choose in which direction we wish to move as opposed to
feeling buffeted about by powers beyond our control.
The past and future of each person is recorded on the divine blueprint
that exists for each soul within the Akashic Records. Each of us may
hold in our mind a vision of the kind of reality we want to manifest in
our reality, but, as it is with any great structural engineer, in order
for the actual creation to be truly brilliant, it is useful to consult
the plans occasionally.
Just as with a building, where each wall must
meld into a corner, and everything must be level in order for the
building to be structurally sound; all aspects of our reality must be
congruent with every other aspect, for there to be overall balance and
in order to be spiritually sound. Accessing information from the Akashic
Records gives us, as the architects of our lives, useful guidance to
construct a creation that supports our soul purpose.
Information is gleaned from the Akashic Records through the asking of
questions. While in the Records, all knowledge stored there is not
immediately available; rather, access to specific information is only
granted in response to a question asked. The asking of a question
indicates a readiness to integrate the information that comes forth.
There is a divine guidance that assists in the asking of questions.
People often find themselves asking different questions than they had
intended while consciously in the Records, but the questions that get
asked inevitably turn out to reveal the most valuable information for
their life in that moment.
The questions asked can be about anything. In daily life, we all
constantly ask questions of friends and family, in the form of prayer,
or through journaling. Often, we don’t expect an actual answer to the
questions that we are asking. Instead, we only hope that some aspect of
our lives will change and bring resolution to the issues that plague us.
However, when the questioning comes from feeling a lack of personal
power to actually change anything, the hoped for changes do not usually
occur.
While in the Records, answers to questions are received
immediately and are often accompanied by explicit instructions on what
can be done to bring resolution to the issue at hand. Inherent in
entering the Records is a willingness to accept personal responsibility
for the creation of our lives. Entrance into Records is an indication
that we are ready to evolve into a higher expression of ourselves.
Questions about spiritual growth, relationships with family and friends,
repeating patterns and behaviors, recurring dreams, work, and finances
can all be addressed while in the Akashic Records. The Records are a
recording of a soul’s journey since inception as well as the
possibilities of its unfoldment in the future.
If relevant, past lives may be
revealed while in the Records. Remembering a past life can serve as a
historical instrument in changing the present and future. Once the
reincarnation is recalled and the origin of a problem is known, it is
possible to view a situation with new understanding and clarity, which
can be used to facilitate change.
Questions about the future are
not usually answered in the form of a prediction, instead information is
given about which path is most likely to lead in the direction of the
future that we want to create.
The reason that the asking of questions is important while in the
Records is that we already possess the answers to all of the questions
that we have, but much of the information is multidimensional and as
such is not easily understood by our third dimensional mind.
With the asking of questions,
we are able to cognitively articulate what it is we seek in such a way
that we can receive the answer through our mind and as a result are able
to more easily integrate it into our daily life in a useful and relevant
manner.
The Akashic Records in and of themselves are simply an energy in which
all that defines us in our current form is held. When we ask questions
of the Records, it is as if another part of us, other than the part that
is asking the question, knows where to find the answers and instantly
retrieves the needed information for us.
So with this in mind, do not be
intimidated by the asking of questions. It is not as if you would
withhold pertinent information from yourself simply because you do not
ask the right questions. You are essentially having a conversation with
yourself, and as such are in the best of hands, yours.
It is of great importance that
we learn to trust ourselves and a significant piece of developing that
trust is to explore and understand the decisions that we have made and
actions that we have taken through out our earthly experiences.
From our current limited
perspective it may initially appear that our choices were destructive or
painful either for ourselves or others, but upon closer examination, we
can find the perfection in all that we are and all that we have ever
been.
