Simpatico Expanded 2021
Continuing discussions based on previous topics covered in my book, Simpatico: Reconciling the Disparity of Spirituality, Ancient Wisdom, and Modern Science
April 25, 2021 Gathering
The Akashic Records, aka the Mind of God, the Book of Remembrance, the Great Hall of Records, the Book of Life, and more. The Records are said to contain all universal knowledge; and in our most recent gathering as of this post, the Medicine Wheel is also said to contain such knowledge. To understand the concept of the Akashic Records, I feel the reader must also become familiar with various other concepts outside the traditional view of what the Records are believed to be.
These Records are most understood as an interdimensional structure that contains the recorded history of every soul ever created in every detail. They are more than just a storage unit or library; they interact with our current reality, belief systems, and even our future potential experiences.
The Book of Life is mentioned in both Exodus and Psalms of the Bible, both speaking to the power and significance of our names, echoing our traditional White Stone Ceremony to receive our “new” spiritual name at the beginning of each new year. According to The Keys of Enoch, “It is through the Sacred Names of the Throne of Christ, and through Metatron and the Elohim, through the Throne of YHWH, that the Masters connect with Man to purify and resurrect our body so that our Name is written in the Book of Life.”
I believe that this “name” is our signature frequency or spiritual identity that lies at the core of our varying vibrational state in this 3D reality. We get into more details about this in our discussions about the Law of Attraction or governing law of Mirroring.
The Vedas of Hinduism and Sanskrit is said to have been extracted from these Records. Edgar Cayce (1877-1945), the most documented psychic of the 20th century credited two sources for his psychic information and readings: the subconscious mind of the person; and the Akashic Records. Somewhat aligned with Cayce’s insights about the Records, I believe that we hold our personal history in our soul, chakras, and biofield. We also have access to the larger universal database as vibrational divine beings. Our subjective consciousness, history, and experiences lend the larger Collective Consciousness, and this all becomes part of the Mind of God, the Book of Remembrance, and the recorded history of the All. The Shamanic Consciousness Integration (SCI) treatment taps into these energetic fields for information which is then used to seek and retrieve the dissociated or separated segments of consciousness as we talked briefly about in the last post.
According to Cayce, this knowledge and information is imparted only as deeply as one understands this life, and is only made available as “the most helpful and hopeful.” In other words, only that information that is a vibrational match to us is made available, and this speaks to the capacity of our consciousness and level of spiritual IQ. Only matching vibrations can share space, and we can only hold and understand what our consciousness can accommodate. We might even say the available information is based on what we are ready to hear and act upon.
In theory, there are four general reasons for accessing the Akashic Records: 1) to discover our spiritual roots and true essence or nature; this includes our purpose for being here as defined by our incarnation plan while we were still in non-physical form; 2) to understand our karma or consequences of previous acts and experiences now causing issues in our present life, aka past lives; 3) to clear this karma by healing the past, completing unresolved matters; examining soul contracts that are still in effect; and aligning ourselves with our present “destiny” or soul plan for this life; and 4) to get a glimpse of our most likely future given our story of past events through the present moment.
Essentially, we would access the great Records to review our past, look at our present, and see where we are headed regarding our most likely future. Just as the Records contain all our past and what is in passing now, they also embody an ever-changing fluid array of possible futures and potential experiences.
The Universe is math, and in mathematical terms, this system is our personal linear regression model, forecasting future events by extrapolating historical data with a confidence interval that contains a margin of error based on a standard deviation. It boils down to our most likely path and outcome based on our past patterns; however, nothing is concrete as our mutable future is shaped by the decisions we make in the present moment.
The observer can change what is observed. Past, present, and future exists at once, much like all the cards in a deck exist at once. We get into the concept of probability; what are the odds of choosing a specific card? What is the most probable result from a set of choices? What is the most likely result when we “spin the wheel” of the cosmic web Space-Time? Probability is a talking point in our next discussion of Soul Mates and Twin Flames. We will also see that our potential results often fall on a spectrum of outcomes with polar opposites and everything in between. In other words, our likely outcomes might come in a range of possibilities, also part of our next blog post and future gatherings.
Ultimately, when we consider all the aspects of the Akashic Records and the mathematical Universe and then compare these to the Shamanic Cosmic Web Model of Time coupled with the findings of our modern science, I believe we can confidently conclude that the Records are a cosmic metaphor for our Space-Time and to some degree our biofield, energetic field, and chakra system. Deeper discussions on Space-Time are covered in other gatherings and of course in the book Simpatico and its Essential Supplement. This brings up the topic of parallel universes, other worlds, and alternate realities as well; and all the events of these various dimensions are part of the Records of the All as Source and all its divine extensions evolve.
One major misconception about the Akashic Records and readings of our individual records is that we can clear our karma and realign our soul to its original purpose. We do not get off that easy. There is no energetic liposuction to simply remove karmic debt or the consequences of our past actions. One reason we are here now, at least part of our purpose and “contract” for this incarnation, is to work through and overcome our karma. Trying to bypass it is not only impossible, it defeats our purpose for being here. A reading or journey may help us to understand what we did and how we got to where we are. It may even offer suggestions on how to correct, work through, and overcome; but it will not just erase events from our Space-Time and recorded history. Sorry.
The concept of overcoming is discussed in our White Stone Ceremony and is usually a spiritual milestone event and/or conclusion to a spiritual experience. Our “purpose” comes down to that, experiencing, learning, and evolving. Kabbalah teaches that our spiritual process is one of correcting and rectifying our karma, and that “soul mates” are typically the last major event we complete and overcome. Zohar, the source of Kabbalistic teaching, explains that we are partners (implying a contract) with the Creator in this creative experience on a material plane, but that even God-Source cannot intervene with our free will choices along the way.
The topic of the Akashic Records lays the groundwork for many other concepts beyond the scope of this post, including the Law of Attraction. We will also see that the Masters all spoke of this governing law and divine binding tendency, and how we might work with the Universe to manage what is and what will be, which is the key to correcting and rectifying what was or used to be.
The Records and most likely outcomes are associated with the Law of Attraction, and at the core speaks to our “vibration” and what we are a vibrational match to. We must learn to carry the highest possible vibe to bring in our most desired results, and this is done in the present moment, not past lives, or events. Buddha said, “to know the future, know the present.” In the Emerald Tablets, Thoth teaches, “Know ye the future is never in fixation but follows man’s free will as it moves through the movements of time-space toward the goal where a new time begins. Man can only read the future through the causes that bring the effects.”
Kabbalah teaches us that we must be accountable for our past actions and their consequences, and proactive in our spiritual transformation and process. In other words, to not be reactive, but respond with positive preemptive changes toward what we wish to have in contrast to what we might be experiencing now. While our history is “written” in the Records, what will be written is up to us.
Be the change you wish to see, and write your life script. What is written in our records is a frame of reference, and the outcomes are open-ended depending on our decisions made in the present moment. Mahatma Gandhi said, “We but mirror the world. All the tendencies present in the outer world are to found in the world of our body. If we could change ourselves, the tendencies of the world would also change. As a man changes his own nature, so does the attitude of the world change towards him. This is the divine mystery supreme. A wonderful thing it is and the source of our happiness. We need not wait to see what others do.”
Bottom line is that we are our Record Keepers and authors of our script. If you want to access the Great Hall of Records or Book of Life, you only must look within, maybe with a little help from your Shaman.
Carry on my wayward ones!
