Akasha Healing Meditation and Music Center AKASHA HEALING MEDITATION AND MUSIC CENTER AKASHIC RECORDS LEVEL 2 What Are the Akashic Records? Everything that we have ever done or thought in all of our lifetimes since the beginning of time is written in the fabric of the Cosmos. The place where this information is recorded is known in the present day as the Akashic Records. True Reality is beyond space and time. ​ For this reason, while we can think of the Akashic Records as a library or supercomputer, they are not really either of these things. These are models to help our understanding. Although the name “Akashic Records” is of relatively recent origin, the ​ concept itself is deeply Traditional. What Can the Akashic Records Tell You? In theory, the Akashic Records can tell you anything you wanted to know. It is said that all of the information in and about our entire Universe is contained there. In practice, though, most of the time when people are seeking to access the Akashic Records, they are looking for knowledge about their own individual souls. They want to know who they were in previous incarnations and what they did. Focusing on our own individual souls does narrow our search through these Records. However, even with this limited scope, there is a vast amount of information. Think about all of the information about you or anyone else that exists in one lifetime and multiply that by hundreds and thousands of lifetimes. The sheer volume would be overwhelming. While you could theoretically gain access to all of that through the Akashic Records, that would be far too much information to process or make use of. So, if you are seeking to access the Akashic Records, it is a good idea to limit ​ your scope to the information that you need right now. For that, it is good to have a purpose in mind. Of course, many of us would like to know about our past lives for the sake of curiosity and even perhaps to gratify our ego. On the other hand, if you go in with that motivation, it is unlikely that you will find anything of value from the Akashic Records. A better approach would be to seek access for a specific reason. Legitimate reasons to seek access to the Akashic Records would be for the healing of body, mind, or soul, or for trying to determine your purpose and mission in this life. When you go in with one of these purposes in mind, you will get the information that is the most relevant to your purpose. Can Anyone Access the Akashic Records? In theory, yes, especially the information about our own individual souls. On ​ the other hand, most of us are deeply entangled in our physical and material lives, so it is hard to let go of that in order to access these Records. How do you know if what you have reached are the true Akashic Records or if they are projections from other psychic sources or even if they are just your own imagination? Those questions are difficult ones. There are people that give readings from the Akashic Records and teach you to read the Akashic Records yourself. Some of them are legitimate and some are not. Unfortunately, there are no licensing requirements for Psychics or Readers of Akashic Records, so it is important to be cautious and shop around when looking for such advisors and teachers. While it may seem strange that we would have access to the Akashic Records in this day and age, there is a good reason for this. Most spiritual traditions tell us that we are living near the end of a Cycle. In Platonic philosophy, this age is known as the Iron Age, in Vedic philosophy, it is known as the Kali Yuga. ​ ​ Because we are so close to the end of the cycle, we are working through many things from our previous lifetimes in this one. This is why we would have access to the information we need to do this. How Can You Access the Akashic Records? There are many theories about how one can access the Akashic Records, however, there are some common practices and principles that most will agree upon. 1) Only seek access to information about yourself or about someone who has given you their consent One of the first rules of seeking access to the Akashic Records is that you should not seek access to information about another without their consent. You can think of this as a Cosmic privacy protection law. Of course, when you are seeking information about yourself, you may gain access to information about other people who you interacted with in previous lives. When this happens, remember, the information you gain is meant for your own healing or development. 2) Develop a spiritual foundation When seeking access to the Akashic Records, it is very helpful to have a spiritual foundation. This will give you a base from which to interpret what you receive. It will also give you protection from forces that might lead you astray. It is not all that important what spiritual tradition you are coming from. All of them are reflections of the Truth in a form that we can understand. The most important thing is that it is a Tradition that speaks to your Soul. It doesn't even matter if this is a tradition that is open to your desire to obtain the wisdom in the Akashic Records. For example, Edgar Cayce was a Fundamentalist Christian, and much of what his faith taught was against the information he found there. He still had the comfort of feeling the protection of Jesus Christ on his journey. 3) Adopt an appropriate attitude If you are seeking to gain access to the Akashic Records, it is important to go in with the proper attitude. You are seeking access to all of the information in the Universe. Don’t just barge in and expect to gain access. Ask permission with the appropriate sense of awe and humility. There are those who will say that you must say the right prayer in the right way. This is not actually the case. The right prayer may help focus your energy and help you adopt the right attitude. On the other hand, what is in your heart is far more important than the words you say. As mentioned before, it is also important to have a good idea of why you wish to access these records. If your reason is vague or improper, the information you receive will be of little use to you, and it may even be misleading. If you are going in with a good reason, you will get the information that will be most helpful to you. 4) Be open to whatever you receive When you are seeking information about your past lives, it is unlikely to be completely flattering. Indeed, it may be quite upsetting and even cause you to feel embarrassment or shame. It some ways, it is similar to uncovering information about yourself through psychotherapy, only with a much wider and larger scope. If you are going in for healing or to determine your direction in life, you are very likely to get information that is painful. The reason for this is that it is the painful things that you need healing from. 5) Expand your knowledge When you seek access to the Akashic records, it is rare that you will get information that you can read in the same way that you can a Wikipedia article. It will come in impressions, images, and symbols. Sometimes, you will receive literal images from your past lives. More often, however, you will receive images that are symbolic. Sometimes the symbols will be personal to you and as such, you will understand them instantly. More often, however, they will be symbols of metaphysical significance. The more you know about metaphysics, religious traditions, and philosophy, the better you will be able to interpret the symbolism you receive. 6) Practice meditation There are those who gain access to the Akashic Records in their sleep or in a trance. Most people, however, gain access to them through mediation. There are many different forms of meditation. The simplest, however, is simply to find a quiet and relaxing place and try to empty your mind of your thoughts and worries. It is a good idea to make meditation a regular practice, however you do it. This way when you are doing something intense, like seeking access to the Akashic Records, you already have a firm foundation in the ordinary practice of meditation. 7) Hold what you receive lightly The final thing that you should keep in mind is that you should hold anything you learn lightly, at least at first. While the information in the Akashic Records is perfect and flawless, our own interpretation of this information as unEnlightened human beings is not. It is possible to have gone to the wrong place, to have misinterpreted the symbolism, or even to have misremembered what you saw. A good practice is to write down the experiences and impressions you receive when you are searching. When you do, try to simply describe everything in as much detail. Do not add your own interpretations just yet. This way you can take your time to reflect on what you saw or felt. If you have a trusted spiritual advisor, see if you can consult with them as well. It may take a long time to truly be able to understand and interpret with you learned, even months or years.

  • Akasha (Space) and Shabda (Sound): Vedic and Acoustical Perspectives
    1 Akasha (Space) and Shabda (Sound): Vedic and Acoustical perspectives M.G. Prasad Department of Mechanical Engineering Stevens Institute of Technology Hoboken, New Jersey [email protected] Abstract A sequential ordering of five elements on their decreasing subtlety, namely space, air fire, water and earth is stated by Narayanopanishat in Atharva Veda. This statement is examined from an acoustical point of view. The space as an element (bhuta) is qualified by sound as its descriptor (tanmatra). The relation between space and sound and their subtle nature in reference to senses of perception will be presented. The placement of space as the first element and sound as its only property will be discussed in a scientific perspective. Introduction The five elements and their properties are referred to in various places in the Vedic literature. An element is the substance (dravya) which has an associated property (of qualities) termed as guna. The substance-property (or dravya- guna) relationship is very important in dealing with human perception and its nature through the five senses. Several Upanishads and the darshana shastras have dealt with the topic of substance-property (see list of references at the end). The sequential ordering of the five elements is a fundamental issue when dealing with the role of five elements and their properties in the cosmological evolution of the universe. At the same time the order of the properties of elements is also fundamental issue when dealing with the perception of elements is also a through five senses. This paper focuses attention on the element-property (or dravya-guna) relation in reference to space as the element and sound as its property.

  • 9. Brahman, Separate from the Jagat
    Chapter 9: Brahman, Separate from the Jagat ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Question 1: Why does a human being see only towards the external vishayas? ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Answer: Katha Upanishad states in 2.1.1 that Paramatma has carved out the indriyas only outwards and ​ ​ therefore human beings see only towards external vishayas. ​परािच खान यतणृ वयभूतमापरा पयत नातरामन .् Question 2: What is the meaning of Visheshana? What are the two types of Visheshanas of Brahman? ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Answer: That guna of an object which separates it from other objects of same jati (=category) is known as ​ ​ Visheshana. For example, the ‘blue color’ is guna of blue lotus. This blue color separates this blue lotus from all other lotuses (lotus is a jati). Therefore, blue color is a Visheshana. The hanging hide of a cow separates it from all four-legged animals. Thus, this hanging hide is a Visheshana of cow among the jati of four-legged animals. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ The two types of Visheshanas of Brahman which are mentioned in Shruti are as follows:- ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ● Bhava-roopa Visheshana (Those Visheshanas which have existence) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ● Abhava-roopa Visheshana (Those Visheshanas which do not exist) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Question 3: Describe the bhava-roopa Visheshanas of Brahman? ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Answer: Visheshana refers to that guna of object which separates it from all other objects of same jati. Now jati ​ ​ of human beings is same as that of Brahman. Here, by Brahman, Ishvara is meant who is the nimitta karan of jagat. Both human being as well as Brahman (=Ishvara) has jnana and hence both are of same jati. However, there is great difference between both of them and thus Brahman (=Ishvara) is separated due to the following bhava-roopa Visheshanas:- ​ ​ ● Human beings have limited power, but Brahman is omnipotent.

It is one of the Panchamahabhuta , or "five elements"; its main characteristic is Shabda (sound). In Sanskrit the word means "space", the first element in creation. In Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati, and many other Indian languages, the meaning of Akasha has been accepted as sky.[1] 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.

  • Theosophy and the Arts
    Theosophy and the Arts Ralph Herman Abraham January 17, 2017 Abstract The cosmology of Ancient India, as transcribed by the Theosophists, con- tains innovations that greatly influenced modern Western culture. Here we bring these novel embellishments to the foreground, and explain their influ- ence on the arts. 1. Introduction Following the death of Madame Blavatsky in 1891, Annie Besant ascended to the leadership of the Theosophical Society. The literature of the post-Blavatsky period began with the very influential Thought-Forms by Besant and C. W. Leadbeater, of 1901. The cosmological model of Theosophy is similar to the classical Sanskrit of 6th century BCE. The pancha kosa, in particular, is the model for these authors. The classical pancha kosa (five sheaths or levels) are, from bottom up: physical, vital, mental, intellectual, and bliss. The related idea of the akashic record was promoted by Alfred Sinnett in his book Esoteric Buddhism of 1884. 2. The Esoteric Planes and Bodies The Sanskrit model was adapted and embellished by the early theosophists. 2-1. Sinnett Alfred Percy Sinnett (1840 { 1921) moved to India in 1879, where he was the editor of an English daily. Sinnett returned to England in 1884, where his book, Esoteric 1 Buddhism, was published that year. This was the first text on Theosophy, and was based on his correspondence with masters in India. 2-2. Blavatsky Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831 { 1891) { also known as HPB { was a Russian occultist and world traveller, While reputedly in India in the 1850s, she came under the influence of the ancient teachings of Hindu and Buddhist masters.

Leadbeater Chapter -1- WHAT CLAIRVOYANCE IS [Page 5] Clairvoyance means literally nothing more than "clear seeing", and it is a word which has been sorely misused, and even degraded so far as to be employed to describe the trickery of a mountebank in a variety show. Even in its more restricted sense it covers a wide range of phenomena, differing so greatly in character that it is not easy to give a definition of the word which shall be at once succinct and accurate. It has been called "spiritual vision", but no rendering could well be more misleading than that, for in the vast majority of cases there is no faculty connected with it which has the slightest claim to be honoured by so lofty a name. For the purpose of this treatise we may, perhaps, define it as the power to see what is hidden from ordinary physical sight. It will be as well to premise that it is very frequently ( though by no means always ) accompanied by what is called clairaudience, or the power to hear what would be inaudible to the ordinary physical [Page 6] ear; and we will for the nonce take our title as covering this faculty also, in order to avoid the clumsiness of perpetually using two long words where one will suffice.

  • Physiology of Muscle Contarctio Understanding International Ayurvedic Medical Journal Muscle Contarction – a Panchabhouthik
    INTERNATIONAL AYURVEDIC MEDICAL JOURNAL Review Article ISSN: 2320 5091 Impact Factor: 4.018 PHYSIOLOGY OF MUSCLE CONTARCTION – A PANCHABHOUTHIK UNDERSTANDING Kamath Nagaraj1, Patel Yashesh2 1Asst.Professor, Department of Shareera Kriya, Sri Dharmasthala Manjunatheshwara College of Ayurveda & Hospital, Hassan-573201, Karnataka, India 2Asst.Professor, Department of Shareera Kriya, Shree RMD Ayurvedic College & Hospital, Valsad, Gujarat, India Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT The individual is an epitome of the universe. All the material & spiritual phenomenon of the universe are present in the individual. Similarly all those resent in the individual are also contained in the universe. The body is de- scribed as the modified form of Mahabhutas hence the description of the identity of the individual & the universe relates to Mahabhutic composition only. The multitudes of the human features are ascribed to the proportion of different Bhutas each of different nature. The major function of Prithvi Mahabhuta is it improves the size by so- lidifying the body parts, Jala Mahabhuta confluences the body tissues, Agni Mahabhuta is responsible for meta- bolic activities, Vayu Mahabhuta divides and differentiates the cell and tissues, Akasha Mahabhuta increases the quantity by forming cavities. The solid and tough structures like muscle, muscle fibres, nerve and at microscopic level including other cellular components, structural proteins are the attributes of Prithvi Mahabhuta. The liquid portion present inside the muscle, nerves i.e. intracellular fluid, secretions from structures which helps in lubrica- tion & moistening can be considered as the attributes of Jala Mahabhuta. The Agni Mahabhhuta can be consid- ered as neurotransmitters that are secreted for the initiation & continuation of muscle contraction, Ionic variations, ATP utilisation that occur for muscle contraction.

  • Nyaya-Vaisheshika: the Indian Tradition of Physics
    Nyaya-Vaisheshika: The Indian Tradition of Physics Roopa Hulikal Narayan 1 Introduction This paper is the first in a series on the Indian tradition of physics that while summarizing the earlier review by Kak [1], [2] will set the stage for a more comprehensive analysis to follow in later papers. In ancient India, the schools of Nyaya and Vaisheshika focused on logic and atomic approach to matter. In this paper, the idea of atomicity and other physical ideas given in Vaisheshika are reviewed in light of the central role the observer plays in Indian thought. We provide introduction to ideas that are described in greater detail in Potter’s text [10], where the focus is not on physical ideas but rather on philosophy. The Rigveda, the oldest of the Vedic texts of India, generally assigned to the early second millennium BC or earlier, is seen within the Indian tradition as the source of its approach to reality. The Vedic sages recognized a binding unity among all that constitutes this universe. They made an attempt to reflect this pattern of interdependence among the entities of the universe including the very structure of universe itself. This may be seen in the structure and symbolic purpose of Vedic altars, approach to language, and so on [3],[4],[5]. The observer or the experiencing subject was given a privileged state in physical thought [6-10]. By the end of nineteenth century, the place of the observer also became a part of the mainstream discourse of academic physics and psychology in the consideration of the dichotomous issues of order and disorder.

  • The Secret Doctrine Symposium
    The Secret Doctrine Symposium Compiled and Edited by David P. Bruce THE THEOSOPHICAL SOCIETY IN AMERICA P.O. Box 270, Wheaton, IL 60187-0270 www.theosophical.org © 2011 This page was intentionally left blank. Introduction In creating this course, it was the compiler’s intention to feature some of the most com- pelling and insightful articles on The Secret Doctrine published in Theosophical journals over the past several decades. Admittedly, the process of selecting a limited few from the large number available is to some extent a subjective decision. One of the criteria used for making this selection was the desire to provide the reader with a colorful pastiche of commentary by respected students of Theosophy, in order to show the various avenues of approach to Mme. Blavatsky’s most famous work. The sequence of the articles in the Symposium was arranged, not chronologically, nor alphabetically by author, but thematically and with an eye to a sense of balance. While some of the articles are informational, there are also those that are inspirational, historical, and instructional. It is hoped that the Symposium will encourage, inspire, and motivate the student to begin a serious and sustained exploration of this most unusual and important Theosophical work. Questions have been added to each of the articles. When referring to a specific quote or passage within the article, the page number and paragraph are referenced. For instance, (1.5) indicates the fifth paragraph on page one; (4.2) indicates the second paragraph on page four. A page number followed by a zero, i.e ., (25.0) would indicate that something is being discussed in the paragraph carried over from the previous page, in this case, page 24.

  • The Secret Doctrine on the Problem and Evolution of Sex No
    Blavatsky Pamphlets The Secret Doctrine on the Problem and Evolution of Sex No. 2 The Secret Doctrine on the Problem and Evolution of Sex compiled by Basil Crump of the Middle Temple Barrister-at-Law Published by The H.P.B. Library, Toronto,On. Canada THE following are the principal points in the teaching of the Secret Doctrine (Vol. II Anthropogenesis, 1888 edition) on the origin and evolution of Sex, and the causes which led to the present evils and difficulties connected with the sex appetite in man. An enquirer, in view of the various perverted ideas and teachings now prevailing among Theosophists says: "I am in a fog as to why the division in the sex principle if the end is to he a unification, and creation by Kriyashakti. I should like to hear what the Secret Doctrine says on the matter of sex. Why the division? What of the future?" There must lie many students who, through lack of study of the S. D. (thanks mainly to the deliberate policy of discouraging it in favour of the Besant-Leadbeater perversions) are in the same position. The following is a very brief sketch of the teaching, with the principal passages either quoted or referred to, taken from the notebooks of a Secret Doctrine Study Class conducted by Mrs. Cleather. It must be borne in mind that, like all Occult works, the information is purposely somewhat confused, scattered, and even in places apparently contradictory, so that the student has to use diligence and intuition in order to piece it together and draw correct inferences.

    Krishnamurti and the World Teacher Project: Some Theosophical Perceptions Govert Schüller Theosophical History Occasional Papers, Volume V Editor: James A. Santucci Theosophical History, Fullerton, Ca., 1997 Foreword (pages i - xiii) James Santucci Clueless we go; but I have beard thy voice Divine Unreason! harping in the leaves, And grieve no more; for wisdom never grieves, And thou hast taught me wisdom; I rejoice. (Aldous Huxley, The Cicadas) On February 17, 1986, the life of one of the great teachers of the twentieth century, Jiddu Krishnamurti, came to an end. No teacher who claimed to give the Truth has done so in so unconventional a manner: so totally contrary to the expectations of his followers, so utterly confusing to his detractors. His was a life that approximated the mystique befitting the archetypal religious teacher. The story of his early life is now familiar to his followers: a portentous birth impressed by his psychic mother's premonition that he, her eighth child, was someone who was not to be like other children (1); the discovery of the adolescent by the clairvoyantly gifted Charles W. Leadbeater (1854-1934) who asserted that K.(2) was to be overshadowed by a great Spiritual force in the person of Lord Maitreya, the World Teacher(3); and the first hint of this Force manifesting itself, in Benares on the 28th of December (1911). Leadbeater described this occurrence in The Herald of the Star(4) as a tremendous power, which was so evidently flowing through Alcyone [K.] that the next member [in line] fell at his feet, overwhelmed by this marvellous rush of force.
