Have you ever imagined what it might be like to open up a book and find the answers to the world’s greatest mysteries? What if you could have an encyclopedia for the universe, in which the answer to every possible question lay open for you to read, from the tiniest query, like where to find a lost household item, to the greatest mysteries of the cosmos?
Akasha as spiritual concept
Akasha is a word from the ancient Indian language of Sanskrit,
thought by scholars to be the oldest written language on Earth. Akasha is
the term for the “fifth element”. The first four elements are well-known to
most of us: air, fire, earth and water. These are the alchemical building
blocks of all matter. The fifth element is referred to in various traditions as
“space”, ether, spirit and sky. It is the parent element from which the
others spring and into which they all ultimately dissolve. It represents the
cosmic ocean of energy which contains all possibility.
Every molecule in the
universe carries the possibility for self-awareness
That one of its definitions is “spirit”
is not a coincidence. Ancient mystics understood that energy and space have consciousness.
The “Sea of Consciousness”, as it is called in the Hindu Vedic scriptures, is
not random. It has innate intelligence. It is aware of itself. The creations it
gives birth to likewise have the potential for independent intelligence. Every
molecule in the universe carries the possibility for self-awareness.
Every event that has ever
occurred anywhere is recorded in the Akashic Records
Each action, thought and emotional
impulse in us leaves a “trail” of energy, an imprint on the cosmic ocean, just
as a boat leaves a wake in the water as it passes. These energy trails are
recorded in the akasha: they are inscribed onto the ether. Every event that has
ever occurred anywhere to any entity, no matter how tiny, is recorded in the
Akashic Records. Because humans think of information as
contained in books, mystics generally perceive the Akashic Records as a book,
written document, or library of books. More recently with the advent of cyber
technology, the Records have been compared to a giant computer system. Some
traditions such as the Egyptian mysteries describe tablets of precious stone in
which the writing is carved by fire. Reports have been consistent, however,
that the information is written and can be read. It is of course written
beyond any language used on Earth, and so the reading will be seen and narrated
in the language of the reader.
The vedic science of the
akashic records
The spiritual tradition from which
Sanskrit took form is Vedic. Vedic Tradition is the
ancient and venerable foundation of present-day Hinduism, born in the lush
plains of the Saraswati River in what is now northern India. It was Vedic
spirituality which first revealed the existence of the Akashic Records to
humanity. The understanding of five elements from which all matter arises also
originates in the Vedas, the earliest sacred texts which give the culture its
name.
Vedic spirituality was
founded on practical scientific understanding
Vedic spirituality was founded on
practical scientific understanding. We know that its technology was astounding,
for its people have left feats of engineering and architecture that challenge
our skills today. They were able to transport gigantic stones across great
distances and build structures with mathematical precision, some in open
contradiction to what we believe is possible. They have left traces of highly
sophisticated medical and surgical knowledge, astronomy, navigation and
agriculture.
In the Vedic culture,
mysticism and materialism worked side by side
In the Vedic culture, the external
world merely reflected the world within: mysticism and materialism worked side
by side. Not only were they not separate entities, they were not even separate
concepts. We therefore can confidently conclude that the Akashic Records
have a scientific basis. But can it be proven?
Akasha is an
all-encompassing medium that underlies all things
Contemporary quantum physics has been
accomplishing exactly that task during the past twenty years. The
post-Einsteinian physics explosion has opened new vistas in the understanding
of energy, the creation process (how energy becomes matter and the reverse),
and the concept of consciousness as the cornerstone of the universe.
The ancient Rishis reached
it through a disciplined, spiritual way of life
The most exhaustive research to date
has been set forth by Ervin Laszlo, Sorbonne Doctorate, Nobel Prize nominee and
2001 winner of the Japan Peace Prize. In his exciting work on the innate nature
of cosmic consciousness, Dr Lazslo describes an energy field, like the
electromagnetic and gravitational fields, which records and transmits all
information generated by any event, organism or object. If not for this field,
evolution would be random and the highly narrow combination of conditions which
support life on Planet Earth would be beyond the possibility of coincidence.
The universe is far too efficient to be operating without creative
intelligence. He calls this force the Akashic Field, pointing out that the
ancient Vedas exactly describe the qualities and abilities he has observed
firsthand.
In his book Science and the Akashic Field, he states:
In his book Science and the Akashic Field, he states:
“In the Sanskrit and Indian cultures,
Akasha is an all-encompassing medium that underlies all things and becomes
all things. It is real, but so subtle that it cannot be perceived until it
becomes the many things that populate the manifest world. Our bodily senses do
not register Akasha, but we can reach it through spiritual practice. The
ancient Rishis reached it through a disciplined, spiritual way of life, and
through yoga. They described their experiences and made Akasha an essential
element of the philosophy and mythology of India.”
Dr. Laszlo goes on to quote the famous
sage of India, Swami Vivekananda:
Everything that has form,
everything that is the result of combination, has evolved out of this Akasha.
“ According to the philosophies of
India, the whole universe is composed of two materials, one of which they call
Akasha. It is the omnipresent, all-penetrating existence. Everything that has
form, everything that is the result of combination, has evolved out of this
Akasha. It is the Akasha hat becomes the air, the liquids, the solids; it is the
Akasha that becomes the Sun, the Earth, the Moon, the stars, the comets; it is
the Akasha that becomes the human body, the animal body, the plants, every form
that we see, everything that can be sensed, everything that exists. At the
beginning of creation there is only this Akasha. At the end of the cycle all
melts into the Akasha again, and the next creation similarly proceeds out of
this Akasha.”
Dr. Laszlo, along with a number of
fellow researchers, postulates that the Big Bang creation model is insufficient
to explain many conundrums of quantum physics. He offers an alternate theory:
that Big Bang is only one of many phenomena, springing from a meta-universe, or
Metaverse which has always existed and will continue to exist.
He writes: “The most fundamental element of reality is the quantum vacuum, the energy- and information-filled plenum that underlies, generates and interacts with our universe and with whatever universes may exist in the Metaverse”.
The cycles of samsara — of
being-to-becoming and becoming-to-being are the leela of Brahman.
He continues: “In Akasha, all attributes of the manifest world merge into a state that is beyond attributes: the state of Brahman. “Although it is undifferentiated, Brahman is dynamic and creative. The cycles of samsara — of being-to-becoming and becoming-to-being are the leela of Brahman: its play of ceaseless creation and dissolution. “
What the new physics
describes as the unified vacuum is the most fundamentally real element of the
universe
Dr. Laszlo observes that this perspective is new to Western thinking, which holds that the ultimate nature of reality is material. However, the leading edge of science even in the West has now confirmed the opposite. “ What the new physics describes as the unified vacuum — the seat of all the fields and forces of the physical world — is in fact the most fundamentally real element of the universe.”

and the Akashic Field, second edition, Inner Traditions 2007.
In this quantum vacuum which
Vedic tradition calls Brahman, we can see the analogy of the cosmic
ocean. Every quantum, every scrap of energy leaves an imprint of its
being-and-becoming and its reverse journey. That information remains to be read
by anyone with the intention and ability to do so. It is also transmitted
wordlessly between energy particles through the entanglement process.
Akasha in sacred scripture
Many scriptures describe the space of
Akasha, although some may give it a different name.
The Isha Upanishad, one of the
most ancient and most venerated writings to have descended to the present day,
opens with an invocation which has become a pillar of Vedic tradition:
“Om, poornamadah poornamidam poornat
poornamudacyate I poornasya poornamadaya poornameva avashishyate” II “All is Fullness. From fullness,
fullness results. When fullness is removed from fullness, what remains is still
fullness.”
From the Infinite sprang this universe and many other universes. No proof exists as to how the universe was created
A commentary by Paramahamsa
Nithyananda, a young enlightened master in India today, expounds further: “From the Infinite sprang this universe
and many other universes. No proof exists as to how the universe was created.
The biblical story of creation and the (Hindu) story of Brahma and pralaya,
the great deluge, are metaphorical stories that essentially point towards a
supreme energy responsible for the universe. However, the universe was always
there.
For every birth there is a death. Yet how did the original birth happen? It never did. It was always there.
The Big Bang theory does not explain
how big bangs still continue if that was what caused the universe. For every
big bang that creates new stars and galaxies in some part of the universe,
there is a black hole somewhere else resulting in disappearance of stars and
galaxies. For every birth there is a death. Yet how did the original birth
happen? It never did. It was always there.”
Reference: Paramahamsa Nithyananda, Bhagavad
Gita Demystified, Progressive Partners 2011, pp 1006-7.
Bhagavad Gita, the best-known sacred book in Vedic literature, tells us
that Akasha is embodied in Sri Krishna, the divine being who authored the text.
In Chapter 15, verses 17 through 20, Krishna says:
“Besides the purusha (male principle of
energy) and the prakriti (female principle of matter) there is the supreme
Purusha, the Lord Himself, who provides and sustains the three worlds.” (v 17) “As
I am transcendental, beyond the perishable and the imperishable, I am declared
both in the world and in the Vedas as that supreme person, Purushottama.”
(v 18)

Reading the akashic records
There are many forms of consultation
available to those who seek mystical advice. A commonly asked question is how
akashic readings may differ from channeling sessions and seances. The answer lies in the difference
between the unconscious and superconscious states. During channeling and
mediumistic sessions such as seances, the medium’s consciousness is shifted
aside to allow the presence of a guest entity or entities, which speak through
the medium’s body. The medium usually does not recall what was said or
what occurred during the session. The medium’s trance state is at a low
level of awareness, similar to hypnotism, so it is possible for the medium’s
own suppressed emotions to surface during a session and contaminate the
reading. Likewise, visiting entities do not always have a clear agenda and may
or may not make accurate statements. It is questionable as to how reliable
mediumistic information can be.
In akashic reading, the
reader’s frequency is stepped up to the superconscious state
In an akashic reading, the reader’s
frequency is stepped up to the superconscious state, where full awareness is
retained as well as the simultaneous ability to view information from other
realms. Even in the superconscious state there can be reservations, as is
stated below. A number of psychics and clairvoyants
have reported viewing the akashic records, and some offer professional readings
for clients. However, there can be a danger, described by Alice Bailey in her
book Light of the Soul, Its Science and Effects: The Yoga Sutras of
Patanjali.
Only a trained occultist can distinguish between actual experience and those astral pictures.
She writes: “”The akashic record is
like an immense photographic film, registering all the desires and earth
experiences of our planet. Those who perceive it will see pictured thereupon:
The life experiences of every human being since time began, the reactions to
experiences of the entire animal kingdom, the aggregation of the thought-forms
of a karmic nature (based on desire) of every human unit throughout time.
Herein lies the great deception of the records. Only a trained occultist can
distinguish between actual experience and those astral pictures created
by imagination and keen desire.” Reference; Bailey, Alice, Light of the
Soul, Its Science and Effects: The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, Lucis
Publishing Company (April 1, 1983)
..the issue of karma can
cloud the reading and even provide false information.
So the issue of karma — the
pressure created by unfulfilled action — can cloud the reading and even provide
false information. The skill of the reader is crucial in successfully and
accurately sifting the truth from the great bulk of the records. Only an adept
who understands the dynamics of karma and can recognize both its impact and its
maya (capacity to deceive) is a trustworthy and dependable conduit for
akashic readings. Paramahamsa Nithyananda is such a
being. An enlightened master whose mystical training began in early childhood,
he has the ability to open the dimensional doors to extraordinary experience,
the clarity to discern karma and the power to release it, and an outstanding
gift for communication.
The individual akashic records of each being are recorded in our DNA
Paramahamsa Nithyananda explains that
the individual akashic records of each being are recorded in our DNA.
Scientists have called this inactive genetic material “junk DNA” because it has
no obvious function, but open-minded investigation has proven that biology does
not furnish any “junk” tissue in nature. All organs and substances have a
purpose. Leading-edge experiments with inactive DNA are revealing that
it is simply dormant, acting rather like a storage area. Paramahamsa
Nithyananda cites ancient Vedic science which confirms that the “storage DNA”
of an organism contains that organism’s entire history, including all of its
previous lives on Earth. It holds all the memories from each lifetime.
..reading the Akashic
Records will be useful for you to become enlightened
“All the information you collected from
all of your births is in your DNA. You can access some of them just to
understand, and not to waste the time doing the same actions again and again,
thinking you will have the joy at end of this action. If you have done certain
action and you did not receive the joy which you wanted, and if you forget you
did not have the joy, you will be trying it again and again in various ways.
But if you remember you did not have the joy, you will not try it again. You’ll
not waste your time on it again. So accessing the DNA code, reading the Akashic
Records, will be useful for you in that way to become enlightened, and not to
waste your time on these foolish things.”
This is release of karma through
retrieval of our stored memories, by reading our akashic records internally.
However, the process takes years or decades of dedicated sadhana —
meditation practice.
The Akashic Record in different philosophies
The Akashic Record in different philosophies
Hinduism - In Hinduism, Akasha means the basis and essence of all things in the material world; the first material element created from the astral world, (Earth,Water,Fire,Air,Ether,) are the other four in sequence). It is one of the Panchamahabhuta, or "five elements"; its main characteristic is Shabda (sound). In Sanskrit the word Akasha means "space", the very first element in creation.
In Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati,
and many other Indian languages, the meaning of Akasha has been accepted as
sky. The Nyaya and Vaisheshika schools of Hindu philosophy state
that Akasha or aether is the fifth physical substance, which is the substratum
of the quality of sound. It is the One, Eternal, and All Pervading
physical substance, which is imperceptible.
According to the Samkhya school of
Hindu philosophy, Akasha is one of the five Mahābhūtas (grand physical
elements) having the specific property of sound.
Judaism – In Judaism, the Book of Life (Hebrew: ספר החיים, transliterated Sefer HaChaim) is the book in which God records the names of every person who is destined for Heaven or the World to Come. According to the Talmud it is open on Rosh Hashanah.
Jewish tradition tells how God opens the Book of Life and studies the words, actions, and thoughts of every person whose name he has written there.
Jewish Encyclopedia BOOK OF LIFE – ...Traditional View: The book,
or muster-roll, of God in which all the worthy are recorded for life. God has
such a book, and to be blotted out of it signifies ...death (Ex. xxxii. 32, 33-
And the LORD said unto Moses, Whosoever hath sinned against me, him will I blot
out of my book. ). It is with reference to the Book of Life that the holy
remnant is spoken of as being written unto life (A. V., "among the
living") in Jerusalem (Isa. iv. 3; compare also Ezek. ix. 4 ...speaks of
the Book of Life in which only the names of the righteous are written "and
from which the unrighteous are blotted out" (Ps. lxix. 28; compare Ps.
cxxxix. 16). Even the tears of men are recorded in this book. Allusion
to the Book of Records( Akashic Records) is also made in Enoch lxxxi. 4,
lxxxix. 61-77, xc. 17-20, xcviii. 76, civ. 7; Apoc. Baruch, xxiv. 1; Ascensio
Isa. ix. 20.
Jainism - Akasha is space in the Jain conception of the cosmos. It
falls into the Ajiva category, divided into two parts: Loakasa (the part
occupied by the material world) and Aloakasa (the space beyond it which
is absolutely void and empty). In Loakasa the universe forms only a part.
Akasha is that which gives space and makes room for the existence of all
extended substances.
Buddhism - Siddhartha attains Enlightenment in Buddha Gaya (modern-day
Bodhgaya), then travels to a deer park in Sarnath (near Varanasi), India, and
begins expounding the Dharma, this signals the beginning of Buddhism. In
Buddhist phenomenology Akasha is divided into limited space (ākāsa-dhātu) and endless
space (ajatākasā). The Vaibhashika, an early school of Buddhist
philosophy, hold Akasha's existence to be real. Ākāsa is identified as
the first arūpa jhāna (arūpajhāna), but usually translates as "infinite
space".
Christianity - ( The beginning of Christianity is marked when Paul started
preaching and writing) In the Christian Bible, the Akashic Record is
referred to as: God's Book of Life, the Book of Remembrances, and the
Lamb's Book of Life. According to Bible Passages such as: "Psalm
69:28 which states: "May they be blotted out of the book of life and
not be listed with the righteous." and Revelation 20:12 And I
saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were
opened. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were
judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. In
both passages the Akashic Record is the mechanism used by God to record every
deed man commits, and will be used on the "Day of Judgement" to
determine man's fate in the afterlife.
Islam - ( When Al- Quran began to be revealed to Prophet Muhammad )
In Islam's holiest book, the Quran, the Akashic Records are referred to as:
Evident Book, Clear Record, Scroll, The Book, and Clear Guide. Two Quranic
example are: "Al- Quran 54: 52. And everything they did, is
in the books" and "Al-
Quran 54: 53. And everything small or great is written down
(recorded)." Just as in Christianity the
"books" record every deed that man has committed both good and
otherwise in anticipitation of the day of judgement, and man's fate once his
physical life has ended.
Sikhism - ( When Its founding teacher, Guru Nanak Dev began
teaching.) Sikh Recording Angels: Chitar and GupatChitar and Gupat Keep Records
of People’s Deeds in the Akashic Records.
Theosophy - ( the year the Theosophical Society was founded
) The Western religious philosophy called Theosophy has popularized the
word Akasha as an adjective, through the use of the term "Akashic
records" or "Akashic library", referring to an ethereal
compendium of all knowledge and history.
Modern Paganism - It is believed by many modern Pagans that the
Akasha, Spirit, is the Fifth Element. Scott Cunningham describes the Akasha as
the spiritual force that Earth, Air, Fire, and Water descend from. Some also
believe that the combination of the four elements make up that which is Akasha,
and that Akasha exists in every living creature in existence; without Akasha,
there is no spirit, no soul, no magic. The Five Elements are worked with
to create positive changes on earth. This is done through meditation to
bring about beneficial changes in one’s life. Akashan spirituality is
holistic. Practitioners learn to maintain mental and physical health
through meditation, exercise, ritual and diet. They are expected to have
a profound commitment to their life path. The upward point of the
pentacle, the pentagram or five pointed star within a circle, represents
Akasha. The others represent Fire, Earth, Air and Water. While Earth is
considered "north"; Fire is "south"; air is
"east"; Water is "west", while Akasha is
"center".
Quotes about Akashic Records
Helena P. Blavatsky ( Aug. 12, 1831 – May 8, 1891) Akasha is
a Sanskrit word meaning "sky", "space" or
"aether", and it entered the language of theosophy through H.P.
Blavatsky's organization, who characterized it as a sort of life force; she
also referred to "indestructible tablets of the astral light"
recording both the past and future of human thought and action, but she
did not explicitly identify these as "akashic" in nature. The notion
of an Akashic Record is attributed to Alfred Percy Sinnett
Alfred Percy Sinnett (18 January 1840, London – 26 June 1921)
Esoteric Buddhism Page 127... “ Early
Buddhism, then, clearly held to a permanency of records in the Akasa,
and the potential capacity of man to read the same when he has evoluted to the
stage of true individual enlightenment”. The notion of an akashic record is
attributed to Alfred Percy Sinnett
Carl Gustav Jung ( July 26,1875 – June 6,1961) “Who has
fully realized that history is not contained in thick books but lives in our
very blood?”
The collective unconscious is an
universal datum, that is, every human being is endowed with this psychic archetype-layer
since his/her birth. One can not acquire this strata by education or other
conscious effort because it is innate. We may also describe it as a
universal library of human knowledge, or the “sage” in man, the very
transcendental wisdom that guides mankind.
Jung stated that the religious
experience must be linked with the experience of the archetypes of the
collective unconscious. Thus, God himself is lived like a psychic experience of
the path that leads one to the realization of his/her psychic wholeness.
Charles Webster Leadbeater
(16 February 1854 – 1 March 1934) identified
the Akashic Records by name as something a clairvoyant could read.
Leadbeater, who claimed to be clairvoyant, conducted research into the Akashic
Records which he said he inspected at the Theosophical Society headquarters in
Adyar (Tamil Nadu), India during the summer of 1910 and recorded the results in
his book “Man: How, Whence, and Whither?”
Max Heindel - born Carl Louis von Grasshoff in Aarhus, Denmark
(July 23, 1865-Jan. 6, 1919) According to Max Heindel's Rosicrucian
writings, the Memory of Nature (Akashic Records) may be read in three
different inner worlds. In the reflecting ether of the etheric region there are
pictures of all that has happened in the world - at least several hundred years
back, or much more in some cases - and they appear almost as the pictures on a
screen, with the difference that the scene shifts backward. The Memory of
Nature may be read, in an entirely different manner covering the essence of a
whole life or event, in a higher world, in the highest subdivision of the
Region of Concrete Thought of the World of Thought, and, last, it may be read in
the World of Life Spirit, covering events from the earliest dawn of our present
manifestation, but only to spiritual adepts or spiritual entities and through
grace is access to the records granted.
Alice A. Bailey (June 16, 1880 – December 15, 1949) wrote
in her book Light of the Soul on The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali - Book 3 - Union
achieved and its Results: "The Akashic Record is like an
immense photographic film, registering all the desires and earth experiences of
our planet. Those who perceive it will see pictured thereon: The life
experiences of every human being since time began, the reactions to experience
of the entire animal kingdom, the aggregation of the thought-forms of a karmic
nature (based on desire) of every human unit throughout time.
Albert Einstein ( March 14, 1879 – April 18, 1955) Einstein tried to find a scientific explanation for the Akashic Records. He made the discovery that a space exists between the smallest existing particles. He never finished his research but said: "I just want to know God’s thoughts. The rest are details." Today, scientists know that this space is not empty. It is an interconnecting field of information that interweaves every atom, particle, cell, organism, and thought. It exists everywhere. It is one field of information that connects everything, called the Akashic Field. This field is the memory of the universe and continuously interacts with matter at all levels.
Edgar Cayce (March 18, 1877 – January 3, 1945) was an American psychic who lived before the emergence of the New Age Movement, yet many consider him to be the true founder and a principle source of its most characteristic beliefs. The Akashic Records are referred to by Edgar Cayce, when he stated that each person is held to account after life and 'confronted' with their “personal akashic record” of what they have or have not done in life in a karmic sense. The idea is comparable to the biblical Book of Life which is consulted to see whether or not the dead are admitted to heaven.
Ervin Laszlo (born 1932) Drawing on anomalies and advances in cosmology, quantum physics, biology, and consciousness studies, systems theorist, philosopher and author, Ervin Laszlo shows how the discovery in physics of the zero point energy field (ZPE), is also the discovery of a universal information field. In Laszlo's recent books' he conveys the theories of the latest new science of the Akashic-Field and its function as the source of all manifestation and interconnectedness.
Ervin
Laszlo equates the Vacuum field or zero-point energy with the
akasha—cosmic mind, universal consciousness, and the field that unifies all
things. Mr. Laszlo also says, “Although it appears solid, in the last
count, matter is energy bound in quantized wave-packets and these packets are
further bound together to create the vast and harmonious architecture that
makes up the world. However, these wave packets, also called the A-Field, don’t
only store information occurring in the present moment, they contain all
information, every thought every deed, every development that has ever happened
since this universe’s existence.”

Life, and Consciousness.
Gregg Braden (born June 28, 1954) The scientist, Gregg Braden, says in his new book, Awakening the power of a modern God, following about this field that permeates all of creation;;“Between 1993 and 2000 scientists documented evidence of a field of energy, which is described in 3 ways: 1) The field is everywhere all of the time. 2) The field exists from the very beginning, what we call the big bang in the theories of physics. 3) The field has an intelligence, it responds to very specific qualities of human emotions.This field is now recognized as a conduit. It is this field that carries everything we hold within into the world beyond our bodies.”New York Times best-selling author Gregg Braden is internationally renowned as a pioneer in bridging science, spirituality, and the real world. Following a successful career as a computer geologist for Phillips Petroleum during the 1970s energy crisis, he worked as a senior computer systems designer with Martin Marietta Defense Systems during the final years of the Cold War. In 1991, he became the first technical operations manager for Cisco Systems.
Stanislav Grof M.D. (born July 1, 1931 - present) is a psychiatrist, one of the founders of the field of transpersonal psychology and a pioneering researcher into the use of non-ordinary states of consciousness for purposes of exploring, healing, and obtaining growth and insights into the human psyche. Grof received the VISION 97 award granted by the Foundation of Dagmar and Václav Havel in Prague on October 5, 2007. In his paper “Evidence for the Akashic Field from Modern Consciousness Research”. Dr.Grof details cases in his field of study of what he terms “an important subcategory of non-ordinary states of consciousness”. The observations from his research of holotropic states suggest that “the individual human psyche has – at least potentially – the capacity of accessing all the information stored in the akashic field. It can do it not only in the role of an uninvolved observer, but also as a protagonist, identifying experientially with all the people, animals, plants, and even inorganic objects and processes that are part of this field.” His studies have lead him to suggest that – in some yet unexplained way – the archetypal world is either an integral part of the akashic field or the akashic field mediates experiential access to it.
Stanley Krippner (born October 4, 1932) is an American psychologist, and an executive faculty member and Professor of Psychology at Saybrook University in San Francisco.[2] Formerly, Krippner was director of the Kent State University Child Study Center (of Kent, Ohio), and director of the Maimonides Medical Center Dream Research Laboratory (of Brooklyn, New York). In Stanley Krippner’s “Geomagnetic Field Effects in Anomalous Dreams and the Akashic Field” He states that “The Akashic Records have been written about over the millennia and were the topic of oral mythology even earlier. In ancient India, the Sanskrit word "akashic" or "cosmic sky" resembled the contemporary concept of "space." But the term refered not only to intergalactic space but also to space (and time) in the loftier dimensions of life, the source from which creation flowed, the divine domain. Therefore, this ancient term signified a space-time continuum that is all pervasive. Krippner is an internationally known humanistic psychologist, having written extensively on dreams, altered states of consciousness, hypnosis, shamanism, dissociation, and para-psychological subjects.
Plato (428 / 427 or 424 / 423 BCE – 348 / 347 BCE)
Within Plato's Timaeus(one
of his dialogues written circa 360 BCE.), he states that the beautiful
orderliness of the universe is not only the manifestation of Intellect; it is
also the model for rational souls to understand and to emulate. Such
understanding and emulation restores those souls to their original state of
excellence, a state that was lost in their embodiment. There is, then, an
explicit ethical and religious dimension to the discourse.
at the time the Greek
periodic table consisted only of earth, water, air and fire (i.e. four atomic
types). In speaking about air, Plato mentions that "there is the most
translucent kind which is called by the name of aether". Therefore, Plato
postulated that a fifth atomic type must exist which Aristotle later called
`ether'.
Aristotle (384 – 322 BCE)
Aristotle (384 – 322 BCE)
Aristotle, who had been
Plato's student at the Akademia, added aether to the system of the
classical elements of Ionian philosophy as the "fifth element", He
noted that the four terrestrial classical elements were subject to change and
naturally moved linearly. Aether however, located in the celestial regions and
heavenly bodies, moved circularly. In Aristotle's system of classical elements,
aether had none of the qualities the terrestrial classical elements had. Aether
was neither hot nor cold, neither wet nor dry. Aether did not follow
Aristotelian physics either. Aether was also incapable of motion of quality or
motion of quantity. Aether was only capable of local motion. Aether naturally
moved in circles, and had no contrary, or unnatural, motion. Aristotle
