The Soul, The
Akashic Record, and The Book of Life
Eternal Cosmos
Question: The Soul is
the Spark of Divinity, the Spark of Life. Is that Spark of Divinity where we are
one with God?
Eternal Cosmos: Yes,
although there are many different ways of understanding the Soul. The Soul is
your Life and Light. The Soul heightens itself within the act of life, living,
and experiencing the human life-plan. The Soul never enters the lower realms. It
never takes on any evil. It heightens and rises within the human as the Spark of
Divinity, and that Spark is the Christed Energy of the Soul.
Q: Does the Soul carry
the Akashic Records?
E.C.: It does carry
the Akashic Records, those which apply to you, but only through that which is in
the memory bank of the Subconscious. If the Subconscious has not read, or does
not wish to read, the Akashic Records which apply to you, it does not get
the knowledge of them. For example: if you don’t read a book, you don’t know
what’s in it.
Q: Does an
individual’s personality die when the individual dies, or does it continue on to
the next life?
E.C.: The personality
does not continue on to the next life. It becomes a memory. When a person is
gone, you remember only the human being, what they were like, what they did, and
what they accomplished as a human being. Therefore, any remembrance of the
personality is like looking at a painting or a picture on the wall; it is a
picture of the person, but not the actual Soul or Spirit. It is simply the
picture.
Q: Is the whole reason
for human life to enlighten the Soul?
E.C.: Absolutely. The
Soul keeps you, not in darkness, but alive and in Light, which is a heightened
awareness. However, many people are not involved with anything except basic
living and existing, and they are not interested in being heightened or
enlightened.
Q: Is one purpose of
life and the Subconscious and all the different bodies to have communication
with God?
E.C.: Correct! That is
exactly right, but not everyone communicates with God. Humans have little idea
what God is, and explaining it to them is very difficult. God is
all-encompassing, not a single format at all, but contains a multiple
manifestation of everything in the Universe, which is beyond most of mankind’s
acceptance. Humans, their Souls, and the entire format of knowledge and wisdom
in their minds have been created by a Source beyond that which we, even in
Spirit, understand.
Q: In addition to
communicating with God, are there not also other purposes to life?
E.C. Definitely. There
are various purposes, including, as explained in your Three Selves work, that
you come into life to work off unfinished past-life karmic patterns. And when
you have completed them, you are in Dharma [Service] to help others finish
their Karma, others who have been part of past lifetimes with you. The
entire script of your karmic contract is shown to your Subconscious at
conception. That script then must be activated and worked out.
Q: Is it correct that
the Basic Selves and the High Self have a purpose?
E.C.: Everything on
this planet has a purpose—everything. Even the most minute microorganism. Very
sadly, most people don’t recognize their own deeper purpose. They feel that only
their Conscious Minds are in charge of their lives, and they do not recognize
the importance of their Subconscious as well as their High Self, Spirit, and
Soul to their spiritual direction and growth to live a life in which they
heighten the Soul by increasing its Light.
Comment: It is
mentioned in the Fellowship’s book Pathways to Your Three Selves that the
Basic Selves eventually become High Selves.
E.C.: Yes, however,
that is not accomplished within a single lifetime, but occurs only after
completing many, many lifetimes.
Q: Does the High Self
become a Super-Consciousness?
E.C.: After
progressing through various levels of heightened awareness, the High Self will
eventually attain Super-Consciousness.
Q: What is the
difference between The Book of Life and The Akashic Record?
E.C.: Each Book of
Life is a chapter in The Akashic Record and contains an account of
one particular lifetime. The Akashic Record contains a collective account
of the lifetimes of each individual. The Akashic Record
is like the Super-Consciousness—multiple—but more than multiple. It is
overwhelmingly multiple. And its contents are not just from your planet.
The Akashic Record includes every area of the Universe of Time and Space. It
contains records of many individual lifetimes and multiple actions—which, under
rightful circumstances and conditions, can be accessed and read.
