The Akashic Experience

Knowing or feeling that we are all connected to each other and to the cosmos by more than our eyes and ears is not a new notion but one as old as humanity. Traditional indigenous societies were fully aware of nonmaterial connections and incorporated them into their daily life. The modern world, however, continues to dismiss and even deny these intangible links-taking as real only that which is physically manifest or proved "scientifically." Consequently our mainstream culture is spiritually impoverished, and the world we live in has become disenchanted.
