The final part of my 3 part series
My understanding is that persons with a high intuitive capability are better linked with their chitta and therefore better able to receive guidance from GENERGY. All the geniuses of our time were surely guided from within. My expectation is that, when one is in a meditative state, whether in a yogic pose or simply standing amidst natural surroundings and opening the self to inspiration, the guidance flows stronger.
A person enamoured of material possessions or otherwise attached to this material realm is probably less connected to the inner guidance. But one who is suffused with love that is giving and not self-centered is also open to inspiration from within.
As I understand from Vedic scriptures, the knowledge collected by all fields of GENERGY are available in a repository called the Akashic Record. If I am not mistaken, this is what is referred to in Arabic as al Kitab. We all have 2 pathways to accessing al Kitab – directly through our own chitta and indirectly through the readings of other beings which are conveyed to us through the material realm. Whatever I learn from observing the world, from reading written texts, from interacting with other people is indirect access to GENERGY.
As I understand it, there are four kinds of direct access to GENERGY.
All beings have intuitive access but, when the intellect or emotion are overpowering, the link to chitta tends to be weak and the guidance from intuition becomes vague.
The second kind is in individuals born with amazing capability and exhibiting uncanny wisdom from an early age. Examples are Yeshua and Krishna.
The third kind is with those who were quite ordinary in the early stages of life but at some point in their lives obtained (by whatever means) the ability/directive to read GENERGY and share what they had read. Many such individuals are described in Dharmic literature. I do believe the Praiseworthy One who recited the 114 chapter Arabic Qur’an was also one such person.
The fourth category of direct access is in persons who sit in deep meditation, succeed in disconnecting from the intrusions of the five senses and the agitations of the physical mind and obtain undisturbed connection with GENERGY. The classic example is Siddharta Gautama who became known as The Buddha.
As I understand it, many of those who succeed in the fourth level of connectivity do not relate back to the material realm and have left this world without being noticed. Some, perhaps out of compassion, choose to reconnect with the material world and share what they had learned.
The sharing by those who read the Akashic Record through whichever means, were usually recorded by their followers and eventually became the scriptures that have been handed down through the generations. We can only imagine how much was lost in the translation from akashic knowledge to human language. The wealth of akashic knowledge needs to be conveyed in language which can reach all levels of human intellect. My personal experience with reading the scriptures is that the meanings are presented in layers. As one gains understanding, deeper meanings can be found.
Unfortunately, much of the deeper meanings were probably lost in translation to other human languages because the translation was limited by the understanding of the translator. Which is why it is always better to seek the original texts. We also have the case of lost records written in an archaic language or version of one a being discovered and deciphered by people who study ancient language forms and piece together what they think it means. People often depend on interpretations of those scriptures by modern ”scholars”, especially when they are told that ordinary people cannot understand the scriptures on their own. That surely adds even more confusion to the original message.
Believers simply accept what they are told. Seekers try to decipher what becomes available to them and make sense of it all. I pick up every morsel of what seems sensible from every source that I encounter and try to put together my personal Reading of al Kitab. I have no desire to teach what I have learned. I share only to open channels of communication in the hope that that I may learn from the discussions and refine my understanding. I am also hopeful that my meditation will strengthen my internal reading.
This pursuit lends purpose to my life.
