8 Ways to prepare to explore your Akashic Record

Many people become curious about the Akashic Record, that Book of Life which contains secrets about your soul-level existence. If you had deeper insight into yourself, what would you do with it? How would this affect your perception of past, present and future?

A shamanic journey with a knowledgable guide empowers you to learn and heal what you do not readily see.  Awareness grows as your mind opens to conceive and accept new possibilities.  To be reading this is a way to recognize your curiosity. If you have already accessed your Akashic Record, you will be able to take these steps to new levels;

1) Read about Akasha and decide whether to go further. Whenever a topic sparks your interest, do some research. You will know if your motivation wanes or grows.

2) Raise awareness of your feelings about other people. Your interactions with others offer insight into yourself. Your reactions mirror how you feel about parts of yourself you accept or reject. Learning to step back from how you feel is illuminating.

3) Choose to become more attentive to your night dreams.The mind explores consciousness every moment. During night dreams, human brains freely explore thoughts and feelings in ways that transcend conscious limitations conditioned to obscure truth.

4) Notice repeating patterns and lessons in your life.  Every person you meet, every choice you make, is the result of your previous thoughts and behaviour.  You may call this karma.  You may view this in terms of energy vibrations and universal laws of polarity, cause and effect and also attraction. To recognize this prepares you for the next step.

5) Practice meditation techniques.  Eastern philosophies offer many choices.  Listen to CDs.  Watch DVDs.  Do it on your own, join a regular group or take some courses.

6) Learn to visualise and observe your thoughts.  This is an example of detachment.  It is a process of discerning how the mind tunes in and out of a situation.  This is teaching you how you respond.  "The what" always comes before you truly grasp "the how."

7) Isolate patterns that no longer serve you.  Different kinds of energy imprints evoke feelings inside you that prompt you to take different kinds of action. As your awareness shifts, you will sense differently and listen to signals you did not notice before.

8) Explore yoga and lucid dreaming.  Physical and mental exercises get you in shape. As you determine you wish to be the best you can be, then you may realize changes in your thoughts and behaviour would be desirable.  This prepares you to regain control over who you are. As you ready to recall certain things you have always known, certain action will make the revelations less of a shock to your system. It is all for your own good.

Hi Liara,
I agree with all of these techniques and I would also like to add a paradoxical view - sometimes we are better off not knowing. I realize the importance to one's spiritual expansion and the akahsic records do provide great clues, but then I think people get lost in trying to change their record and thus not living in the now.

Alexys, you bring up a valid point. Exploring the Akashic Record is not appropriate or appealing to everyone. It is not possible to change what has been stored in your Akashic record but the choices you make from this moment determine what is stored next. Forced remembering of archived records can be psychologically-damaging. People have free will and choose to develop or not at their natural pace. To truly know your past and better know yourself will happen if and when you are ready for Divine guidance in that directon. Certain matters have been kept from your conscious awareness for a reason. You only accept what you choose to acknowledge. To seek to move faster than you should can open you to negative influences of your own making. Cause and effect operates at all levels. This includes the wish to know more than you should. It is unwise.

Generally achieving lucid dreaming and deeper meditation requires a disciplined mind. Someone who is after a quick fix or wants to feed the desires of the ego usually won't be able to achieve the consciousness state required to enter the Akashic Record in the first place. From my experience, it's very difficult to force any true guidance and wisdom from that realm. Although many psychics have tried in the past, and many still do, self-awareness cannot be fabricated.
