In the past couple months since I have started this blog and started to try to learn about different topics either to discuss on here or just for the sake of learning I have gone through many different books, podcasts, documentaries, etc. I have yet to come across something so confusing and subjective as the idea of the Akashic Records. If you know what these are already, you know what I mean. I am not going to sit here and write about how they are true or not true. I think, in this case, the best I can do is put out the information I have gathered and reflect on it. If you are reading this and find this topic interesting, by all means, go do some fun research. There are a million podcasts and websites on the topic. Following, I will do my best to put together what I have gathered.
From what I can tell, the Akashic Records could be a non-local dimension of knowledge. It’s a plane of existence or consciousness where all the thoughts that have even been and ever will be made by humans exist. Our actions, thoughts, and feelings are all recorded in this place. It may also be referred to as the Hall of Records or The Book of Life. It was made famous by a few people in the 1800's who could "access" it during "readings". Edgar Cayce is the one I find most interesting of this small crew. I am starting to research him. There's a LOT out there.
In my quest for knowledge about this topic, mistakenly thinking it would clear up my confusion about it, I just became more lost and confused. It seems that these records have been used by religious individuals, shamans, mystics, spiritual guides, life coaches, psychics, and others. They have possible been referred to in the Bible, by the Druids, the Vedas, the Egyptians, and others.
Due to the massive amount of information about Akashic
Records and the many uses, I want to just briefly discuss the possible uses I
found most interesting.
Firstly, one of the things Edgar Cayce used to be
able to do, supposedly recorded from testimony and written accounts of what he
said after accessing the records, was find helpful medical and health
information. He supposedly told some doctors to use a nail in someone's broken
leg to help heal it. This had not been done before (again, supposedly..... you
can probably just think that I will not keep writing it). The nail worked! He
also foretold of a time here a drop of blood could be used to find out
everyone's medical issues and how to solve them. That, ladies and gentleman, is
just about true. We can find out what's wrong, but now we are getting close to
finding cures for things based on our own genetic makeup. Personalized cures
for diseases aren't that far fetched. Could the Akashic files be used to
advance health care and our strive for immortality? (don't pretend like we
aren't trying for that). It seems that those who can access the records can
find out useful medical knowledge. This could be because they now have access
to everyone's ideas and knowledge or because they can access future knowledge.
If the latter is possible, really and truly possible, then we should all be
trying to access the records. If we can access the future where we have found a
cure for cancer, we need to look for it like crazy. Cancer is one of my major
fears. My mom had it when I was in first grade. She survived, but I know it
runs in our family and I am very worried I am going to get it.
But back on topic... What if we figure out we can
get health information from the future using the Akashic files? That brings up
a few questions. If it is true, then why haven't we done so already to cure
things like cancer and other diseases? Why don't those individuals who claim
they can access the records use them to do this instead of doing readings on
people's past lives? Maybe some people only have access to certain types of
information, but that seems silly. I am not going to say that people can't see
past lives and stuff, because I have no idea. It could be totally true and
real. What I am saying is that if you have an ability that is so special and
you can access something so amazing, why use it to solve small, individual
problems? We should be using this ability to access it to help humanity? I feel
myself getting worked up because questions like this make the whole thing seem
like a big scam a lot of people a running to make money. In almost every
interview I found a listened to on subject, not all, the person being
interviewed mostly talked about themselves and how they got into psychic
readings or how they figured out how to access the The Records, etc. Never did
anyone discuss HOW they did it or WHY they think it exists or even the
commonalties that exist about the records between individuals. It just felt
like people making things up. Again, I could be way off base, but that's how it
seemed to me.
Back to believing that the Akashic Records are real
and important.... Did individuals like Steve Jobs and Nikola Tesla have access
to the records? Is that why they were so innovative. Tesla once said, "My
brain is only a receiver. In the universe, there is a core from which we obtain
knowledge, strength, inspiration. I have not penetrated into the secrets of
this core, but I know it exists". Many artists, singers, writers, and
others claim that at their most creative, they are no longer in charge
of their body but are like passengers. Some call this the muse.
Could this actually be the Akashic Records? The idea of the
"muse" has been around for a very long time. I have been working on a
piece of art before and had to stand back and see what I've done after awhile
because time flew by and I wasn't even aware of working. I just call it getting
in "the zone". In this head space, I stop judging what I am making
and stop thinking an just make it. It usually goes better.
There was a little sic-fi time travel movie I
watched once not long ago where an artist used a "magic" camera to
take pictures of his canvas 24 hours into the future. He would then paint
whatever was in the picture. In the movie they were terrible and looked like
pictures someone found on shutter stock or something, but that's not the point.
The idea of doing this could be similar to accessing the Akashic records. If
what we are going to do already exists in the records, than there are no
original ideas and works of art. They already exist and we just need to pull
them down from the hallowed Hall of Records. This actually feels like it might
take some pressure off. If I don't have to stress about coming up with all new
original ideas every time I do an artwork, I might make more easier and faster.
If the ideas already exist somewhere, I don't need to worry about where I got
my ideas, how I got them, or how original they are. Obviously, I shouldn't be
straight up copying others work, but I also don't need to stress about
reinventing the wheel. I just need to make art and access "the muse"
or the Records.
I cannot put a pretty bow on this subject to wrap
it up. There is too much out there and too many varying ideas and
interpretations for me to just give one and say, "this is what it is".
I am not sure I believe a lot of what was said in the interviews and article I
looked into. It seems that people's ideas about what he records are and could
be used for vary so much that there is no real consensus. I don think, as with
anything like this, there are tons of people out there just trying to make a
buck and making all sorts of stuff up. Oh, you can access a dimension made of
knowledge but can only do readings of past lives? Riiiiigghhht. I do think its
more likely that this plane of knowledge serves more like a muse. We access it
while in the right frame of mind to come up with inventions and art and
solutions to problems. I am not sure I buy that 100%, though.
The best thing you can do is to search it yourself and see what you
think.
