Edgar Cayce on the Akashic Records. Kevin J. TodeschiЧитать онлайн книгу.

       The records that have been written have been written . . .

      Then the natural question of the entity, from that which has been given, is: From what source, or how, is such a record read of the activities in the past? How may self know that there is being given a TRUE record of the activities in a period of which there is no written WORD [of] history? Yet the entity itself sees, and is being taught, and is studying, the records that are written in nature, in the rocks, in the hills, in the trees, in that termed the genealogical log of nature itself. Just as true, then, is the record that the mind makes upon the film of time and space in the activities of a body with its soul that is made in the image of the Maker; being then spirit, in its form, upon the records IN time and space.

      Imagine having a computer system that keeps track of every event, thought, image, or desire that had ever transpired in the earth. Imagine, as well, that rather than simply a compilation of written data and words, this system contains countless videotape film and pictures, providing the viewer with an eyewitness account of all that had ever happened within any historical time frame. Finally, imagine that this enormous database not only keeps track of the information from an objective perspective but also maintains the perspectives and emotions of every individual involved. As incredible as it may sound, this description gives a fairly accurate representation of the Akashic Records.

      Edgar Cayce, who has been called the most documented psychic of all time as well as a twentieth-century mystic, helped thousands of people through the use of his remarkable intuitive ability. For over forty years, Cayce gave readings, or psychic dissertations, using the Akashic Records as his primary resource material. Cayce’s essential talent was his ability to access and describe information from these records, information which would enable people to discover everything from their essential purpose in life to the underlying cause of a long-standing problem. It was a resource of information, Cayce claimed, which was and is available to everyone.

      In an effort to describe how this is feasible, Edgar Cayce stated that it is possible for individuals to attune to the Akashic Records in the same manner that a radio could be built to tune in to radio waves. Although the records are not physical in nature, an individual in attunement can “hear,” “read,” and “experience” the information nonetheless. In order to illustrate what an individual might perceive while viewing this information, Cayce told an eighteen-year-old girl that the Akashic Records of the mental world might be compared to a movie theater of the physical world (275-19). This movie could be replayed in an effort to understand what had occurred in an individual’s experience in any period, at any time, or while in any place in history. Also within this data was a record of lessons learned, opportunities lost, faults acquired, and experiences gained. In addition, although an individual’s actions could be misinterpreted or misconstrued in the physical world, the Akashic Records maintained an objective record of a person’s “real life” because it reported his or her true intent.

      In 1934, while giving a reading to a twenty-eight-year-old freight agent (416-2), Edgar Cayce tried to define these records further. Not only did he discuss what the Akashic Records are, but he explained how they are written, and clarified how an individual could gain access to the information. Apparently, any type of endeavor—whether action, thought, desire, or deed—creates some kind of vibration. This vibration produces a mark upon (what Cayce called) the skein of space and time and is somehow permanently identified with the individual responsible. Although unseen, it is an etheric energy that is as evident to a sensitive as the printed word is to a sighted person:

      When there is the thought or the activity of the body in any particular environ, this very activity makes for the impressions upon the soul . . .

      As to the records made by such an activity, these are written upon what is known as time or space; much in the form or manner as are the messages that are of a familiar nature to the body in its present activity. As the instruments of recording are used, so does the activity of ENERGY expended leave its imprint upon the etheric wave that records between time and space that DESIRED to be put, as to that impelling or producing. Just as the figures or characters make for communications between individuals, so does the soul upon the pages or records of time and space.

      Complicating our ability to understand and work with these records, however, Cayce explained to his wife, Gertrude, in reading 538-32 that it is very possible for anyone attempting to read the records (a psychic, a sensitive individual, the entity itself, etc.) to misinterpret the information. Perceiving the Akashic database is apparently shaded by the mental experience and background of the person reading the information UNLESS the intent is totally selfless and desirous of being of help. In other words, two individuals could acquire very different interpretations from the very same records because of their own belief systems, backgrounds, experiences, and personal motives.

      During the course of a reading given to a thirty-eight-year-old physician, the subjective nature of the Akashic Records was explained as follows:

      Hence the interpretations of these may vary somewhat, dependent upon what phases the approach is made. In
