Akashic is Sanskrit for ‘’primary substance’’.

They have been referred to by different names such as: The Book of Life, the Cosmic Mind, the Universal Mind, the collective unconscious, the collective subconscious, and the Soul Records.

It is the past, present, and future knowledge of all things.

It is the universal filing system which records all thoughts, words, and action.

It is the repository of all human experience, a record of all events.

Some say the Akashic records are similar to a Cosmic or collective consciousness.

They are records of talents and knowledge.

They are not actual books or scrolls, though many people see them as such when they access them, but they are actually an energetic vibration. It is this energy vibration that translates into images, forms, symbols, imagery, and language that the mind can understand.

Every person can access their own records.

Access to others records is gained through access to the Higher Self of that person or by one’s Higher Self going to Higher levels of spirit for access )with permission.

Whatever your expectations are….

The Akashic Records Will closely resemble What it is you first Envision it to be.

How can you Access the Records?

There are many ways to access the Akashic Records.

Certain people go into subconscious states to read the records, such as the late American Mystic Edgar Cayce. Edgar Cayce did his readings while in a sleep state, or trance.

He also enlisted the help of spirit, a notable English Physician, who helped provide Edgar Cayce with many of the ‘Cayce Cures’.

Other ways that an individual can gain access to their records is by any of the following:

Meditation

Creative Visualization

Many people are searching at this time, for what they call the truth. They are seeking guidance in this arena from "higher" beings on other dimensions. Well, surprise, you are one of these beings. Everyone has a Higher Self that exists simultaneously on this dimension, as well as all others. The possibilities for life are limitless, and the great Spirit that you are wants to experience all the possibilities. You always have contact with your Higher Self, but it comes through more clearly when you focus your intent upon bringing Spirit into your life. So the phenomenon of channeling is really a simple concept: it is bringing in Spirit (not necessarily your own) and letting it communicate either to you or through you. Since your Higher Self is not limited by time or space, you can access the whole of your entire being, that is, your past, present, and future selves, as well as all aspects of it. Your Spirit is really greater and much more vast than you can imagine, because you are here on the physical plane, learning all about limitation, and don't have the "bird's eye view" that your multidimensional Self does.

Here is a simple technique you can use to channel your Higher Self, or Spirit. It is a very flexible method and you can always modify any of it to suit your own needs. Really anyone can do this.

Go somewhere that is quiet where you won't be disturbed, and where you can sit comfortably with your feet flat on the floor or ground, and your eyes closed. It may be helpful to keep a pen and paper handy to write your experiences as they go along. If you like, you can have a helper with you who can guide you through the initial meditation and ask questions of your Higher Self, and write your answers for you.
