It would be difficult to recall a time when I had not heard of the Akashic Records in one or other of the many metaphysical books I was reading in my youth. Whether inspired by teachers or channeled through spirits, the references were unmistakable. In the astral, mental and causal planes at the very least, it was possible to attend a place, a situation, a focus of consciousness, where all the ‘events’ of what we call history could be viewed and re-experienced without the willful deceptions of political and economic power plays that distort the reportage of historical reality here on earth. Beyond the proud trumpeting of the victors’ triumph and innate moral superiority and the insulted, wounded whining of the losers and the endless ruthless cruelties of the struggles to achieve dominance, whether on a personal, tribal or empire level, lies the actual details of the process laid bare for all to see.
Apparently, on the mid-astral planes of the summerlands and heaven worlds, there were many theatrical reenactments where the truthful story was exposed, far beyond any deliberate deceptions the scribes of the day were bribed or forced to deposit in the written record. These theatre shows, although only one category of spirit world entertainment, were very popular, it was written.
On the mental and causal levels, such information could be accessed in small, free standing theatre-like buildings, where energy beams from even higher realms would relay the information requested by the viewer, including that of their own past incarnations and karma. If timid, one would employ a willing guide and if brave, just walk in.
As a young seeker I was very curious about such things, but the overwhelming effects of all the traditional esoteric and modern new age literature, then available in the 70’s/80’s, tended to put all revelations into a very wide screen picture, where many intriguing aspects could easily be overlooked in the gush of excitement that is inevitable when the mysteries are even partially unfolded.
As the decades of my journey rolled out and the parameters of my experience as an incarnate human widened beyond any previous conceivable horizon into what seemed like completely uncharted waters, where anything feasible was actually do-able, the Akashic Records faded into the background. The promise of immediate and magically creative action shone invitingly. How about a three dimensional chess set? A model village with all the cultural accoutrements, where new arrivals could actually live their heaven lives? A museum and gallery complex that constantly but immeasurably morphed its outer forms, never quite looking the same way twice? Hey, I could check out all that historical and cultural confusion later.
And with many of us exploring our nde’s, obe’s, lucid dreams, past, future and those lives-between-lives, our interactions with our extraterrestrial visitors, our attempts at harmonizing with the elementals, devas and nature spirits, not to mention our nuclear or extended families, the Akashic Records remain fairly far down in our to-do list.
From time to time I ponder its usefulness. Will the in built prejudice of perceptions not continue its parade of assumptions? Can we attain, in any meditative or obe state, the escape from cultural biases? Can we ascend beyond the male, female, mammal, insect, elemental, Chinese, French, African, Persian, Indian, Russian, Hybrid or Indigenous viewpoint? How about the Earth centric view? Or even the Milky Way bias? Is there actually anything left after the basket of biases and assumptions has been cleared out? What kind of neutral emptiness might be left to look? And what, if anything, would it see, intuit or find significant?

My spirit contacts began around the year 1970 after my father’s passing in 1968. They took the form of what we now call lucid dreams. In them I was often sitting with him as he told me things like, “Try to imagine I’ve gone on a long holiday”. A few others followed at lengthy intervals, and combined with my wide reading in the esoteric, occult and metaphysical literature, by the 1980’s I felt quite educated in those matters. Some of the dreams suggested I was being guided and taught, and I had read enough to know the signs. I waited patiently for a revelation. Eventually it came, but not in the form I had expected. The crop circle phenomenon of the ’90s grabbed me by the neck and I couldn’t stay away from southern England. By the new millenium I knew I had been changed forever.

I agree with you, Gordon but I do think the Akashics have certain knowledge that at times can really make a difference in how one might choose to proceed with a situation that’s very important to them. That’s been my experience recently anyway.
As a long time amateur student of history, I am all too aware of how cultural perspectives and political necesity can twist the record into prideful victories and shameful losses, rather than the colourful chaos that refuses to be easily categorised.
Does reading the Akashic Records as a non-aligned spirit resolve this? Or does our determination to stamp moral progress on mankind’s evolution outstrip our ability to see the carnival for what it is, a circus that came to town and never left?
It’s a question that preoccupies me from time to time, when the bliss of mere being fades for a bit.
It is an intresting question, I wonder about it too. When watching remote viewers describing past historical events, it seems the opinions/views of the tasker, somewhat color what the remote viewers percive.
And what if there are multiple timelines, and multiple earth histories with different pasts, shifting changing and merging, is there a correct past then? Many ifs. Maybe what can be viewed most accurately is what personally meaningful and relevant to the person.
I couldn’t agree more, Adrian. Everytime I watch Farsight’s RV sessions I am always surprised at how much Courtney Brown adds his strong opinions to the RV viewers outcomes. Courtney puts his own “slant” on every single viewing session and that’s why I stopped watching the RV’s at Farsight. He should never interpret the viewers work but instead let the people watching form their own opinion.
I also completely agree with your second paragraph. I truly believe the choices we make in our present time always shifts the future outcome for us. If we want to see our future, we have to examine our present first because the future is ever changing and formed by the present.
