What Is Akashic History?  


Welcome to this presentation on the Akashic Record and History.

In this website we will be discussing past lives of famous people in history and how many of these souls have reincarnated on the public stage to participate in the progress of human civilization. We talk about such essential spiritual principles as karma and reincarnation and we discuss the Akashic Record, which contains a permanent soul memory of past lives.

Many people are aware of the basic principles of reincarnation and karma. They realize that karma is the result of previous choices—and that these choices affect individuals. However, fewer people may have considered how this might apply to groups, and whole collectives. As people approach a threshold of genuine spiritual consciousness, they become increasingly sensitive and aware of the spiritual nature of life. This includes an awareness and a sensitivity to past life memory.

Yes, a permanent record of life exists, one which can be known and accessed in soul awareness. This ”memory of life“, the Akashic Record, holds the soul memory, the soul history, the complete soul record, of every lifetime of every soul, and of all life on earth.

In this site we discuss what the Akashic Record is and how it may be approached. We also discuss how reincarnation and karma may contribute to the great cycles of history and to the reoccurring themes of civilization. The purpose of this discussion is to gain a greater understanding of the spiritual nature of the human drama.

•First: it is important to realize that describing and explaining the Akashic Record, the memory of life, is not an easy task.
      With the help of intuition, however, this subject is not so difficult to understand.
•Second: it is important to realize that new avenues of thought or understanding require receptivity.

It may take time. Those who take the time and make the effort will be rewarded. The more thought and study that is applied to the combined subjects of immortality, the divine memory of life, reincarnation, and the great repetition cycles of history, the more meaningful will this presentation become.

Each section of this site is designed to provide an important part of the whole. Please take time to visit our Gallery of Past Lives. In the Gallery, former lives of famous and well known people are presented in terms of reincarnation. The Gallery is intended to be used as an exercise for stimulating spiritual intuition. Careful consideration (in connection with additional biographical research, if needed) of these example past lives can help awaken insights into social, political and spiritual history, the very issues that affect our lives on a daily basis.

In the Halls of Learning at the higher level of the Mental World, discussions of many important principles connected with the study of past life/akashic history, including reincarnation, karma, and the Akashic Record can be found.

In Your Personal Journey, you will find guidelines for meditation and suggestions for awakening and developing greater soul awareness. This subject, including questions and answers, will be discussed in greater depth in the forum which is posted in the Akashic History Journal section of the site.

  Why Study Past Lives of Famous People?

Knowledge of past lives is one of the many gifts of spirit. Except for rare exceptions, we have all lived before. Every soul has a history, as does the collective. History is not only something that happened a long time ago.

History is now.

We exist in a living, moving, transforming theater of historical events that surround us, that influence us on many levels, material and spiritual. Becoming more aware of the dynamic nature of life can add to our sense of connection to others across time and space, cultures and continents. We are all participants in a universal drama of planetary incarnation.

As we meditate on past lives of well known people, what can we learn about ourselves? About history? About the principles of reincarnation and human development? And about the principle of historical repetition cycles? An adventure of self discovery may begin with curiosity about reincarnation and personal past lives, and then progress to questions about the historical theater of life, and how reincarnation affects the greater cycles of civilization.

Why is a soul born into a particular culture at a particular time? Why are some people born with what seems to be preexisting charisma and talent (or potential) of a certain type or genius? What makes a prodigy? Why do some people seem to ascend so effortlessly to the top of their chosen field? How does a soul choose his or her life? Or, do we choose? Does karma choose for us? Do we as souls participate in planning our coming lives? How is a person drawn to their destiny? What is karma? Why do we attract the life we do?

These are questions asked and answered by a qualified akashic history researcher.

Let us consider the faces of the four American Presidents which are carved in stone at Mount Rushmore in South Dakota. Why are these particular four Presidents so important? How did these four individual souls come to be who they were in that life? What soul energy, what divine destiny, did each possess? Did they live powerful and charismatic lives before in another civilization in another time? Have they lived again? And are any of them living now? Is there a repeating cycle of civilization that can be seen in the lives of these four famous American leaders?


  In visiting the Gallery of Past Lives, what does your intuition tell you?

Each of us has the potential to touch inner dimensions of soul consciousness or soul awareness, and in so doing, to gain knowledge and perspective concerning other lives. We can learn a great deal about past life history by studying other lives of famous people, (when they can be known). Reading biographies of famous, or well known individuals in world history, can bring us closer to the open doorway of inner memory, where, with quiet reflection, we may also receive glimpses of our own past lives emerging from within a collective drama of present day, as well as historical, times and places.

As a principle, the life of the soul is not one life, but a pattern of many lives, usually a repetitive pattern. The history of a soul’s journey in earth is not a single cultural experience, but rather a string of lives which are planetary in scope and experience. It is safe to say that, with rare exceptions each of us has lived many times in many ages.

This site, as well as my book, is being made available in order to help provide a means for comparative historical pastlife study. The insights, provided here as starting points, are for those who are approaching a realization of their own past lives and who are curious about the past lives of others. This work is for those who are ready to glimpse past the veils of ordinary perception, to set out on a path of heightened awareness in search of added insight and wisdom.

You are welcome to join us on this journey of discovery and exploration. Our journey begins.
