      Questions about the Akashic Records

      The Akashic Records are one of the main reasons I've wanted to get into LDing and APing. I've sort of poked around the forum about it, but I got threads with little to no replies and people talking about how it's a bad idea. Which it probably is. But regardless, here are my questions:

      Does anyone know what is involved in accessing them or how to go about it?

      Does anyone know anything about any risks involved (aside from the probable feeling of your mind getting sodomized by a tidal wave of knowledge)?

      Has anyone ever accessed them, and if so, what was it like?

      Thanks.

      Since there are no Akashic records, you'll likely not find anything valid here (or anywhere else) regarding access to them. Just because someone thought something was a cool idea a century ago, and that people write about it (usually as a vehicle for fiction) to this day because they also think it's a cool idea does not make it true. That said...

      The idea behind the Akashic records -- that there is a vast store of knowledge set in the ether -- has some validity in that our unconscious could be seen as a very large repository of knowledge. It may only be your knowledge and memories, but who knows? Perhaps being able to tap your own unconscious through LD'ing might yield Akashic Record-like results!

      You might try reading the Subconscious Talking to You thread, as it goes pretty deeply into this subject.

      Oh, and if I'm wrong and you do manage to stumble on the Akashic records, be sure to let us know how you did it...

      Here's what little I know....I did some bookstore and website research, and found that the people writing books and offering classes about the Akashic records are con artists, and not particularly talented ones, in my estimation. That doesn't necessarily prove anything about the records themselves of course.

      As I have posted previously, I tried to get knowledge of my own past lives once, and didn't get anywhere. I doubt that people have past lives in the conventional sense though. I think that the histories of our souls are more analogous to the genetic histories of our bodies - we have relationships with people who have lived before, and particularly strong affinities with certain individuals, but its more complicated than a simple chain of existences. Also, I think that these 'past lives' are in some ways more closely related to other worlds than they are to the historical past of this world. I've had fairly vivid dreams of being other people in somewhere like Germany in the 1930's, but I don't know to what extent those are related to the thoughts of other, currently living people who think about those things. I know for sure that my dreams have connections with other people's thoughts.

      Recently I thought about cooperating with another person to get some more definite information about these other worlds, and my sense was that such an effort would be actively obstructed. The paranoid interpretation of that would be that humanity or its satanic god wants us to remain ignorant. A more optimistic interpretation would be that we're under a kind of quarantine. People's motives being what they are, we would create monster collective minds if we were able to make those kinds of connections. I think that both interpretations are different ways of looking at the same thing - humanity's satanic mind is sort of a demon guard at the gate which will change into something else when we change.

      Although this doesn't relate directly to Akashic records, the same sort of limitation would presumably apply there. I don't think a 'tidal wave of knowledge' is a very realistic risk. However, its true that once you learn something its pretty hard to unlearn it. And its definitely possible to learn things that cause difficulties. Its not so much that heaven deluges you with information, its more that the information you get puts you in a place that doesn't work for you psychologically. Since you can't go back, you try to remedy that by gaining more information, and it kind of snowballs. So it is a lot like the lady who gets reamed by too much information at the end of the Indian Jones movie with aliens (the one where they nuked the fridge), but its you who's driving it, and you can't stop because there's nowhere to stop.

      I've read about it and understand the concept presented about this hall of records. It does Sound very interesting and every time it's referred to the term astral projection pops up. Gd luck in your journey. Namaste

      When you are aware, what your mind expresses is creativity. It creates your life.
      When you are in a higher state of consciousness, it not only creates the life of whatever you want, but also on whom ever you want". -LifeBlissFoundation
