Akashic Records

Alice A. Bailey defines what the Akashic Records are in her book Light of the Soul:

“ The akashic record is like an immense photographic film, registering all the desires and earth experiences of our planet. Those who perceive it will see pictured thereon: The life experiences of every human being since time began, the reactions to experience of the entire animal kingdom, the aggregation of the thought-forms of a karmic nature (based on desire) of every human unit throughout time. Herein lies the great deception of the records. Only a trained occultist can distinguish between actual experience and those astral pictures created by imagination and keen desire.”

One of my teachers is Chögyam Trungpa who states in his book True Perception: The Path of Dharma Art :

“You know, every time I speak to students, they always ask,
‘Do you do any work for yourself?’ The presumption beneath that question is
that since one works to assignment, the work is not for oneself. My view is
that all the work I’ve done is for myself, and it also involves accommodating
either a personality (the client) or problem that has to be solved. Such is the nature of the design profession.”

“When you begin to abandon all possibilities of any kind of reference point that
would comfort you, tell you to do something, help you to see through everything,
make you a better and greater person—when you lose all those reference points,
including your ambition, the strangest thing takes place.… It’s as if you were
suspended in outer space without a space suit or rocket ship. You are just floating
and circulating around the planets forever and ever.… That experience of suspension
is the canvas or the blackboard where you paint your pictures, your symbolism. It is
the basic ground. You can only begin from there.”
