As
a means of perhaps alluding to the fact that the Akashic
Records were not simply a transcription of the past but
included the present, the future, and certain probabilities
as well, in reading 304-5, Cayce began the reading with
a curious statement.
When discussing the
Book of Life, he stated it that it was "The record of
God, of thee, thy soul within and the knowledge of same." (281-33)
On another occasion (2533-8) Cayce was asked to explain
the difference between the Book of Life and the Akashic
Records:
Q.
[What is meant by] The Book of Life?
A. The record that the individual entity itself writes
upon the skein of time and space, through patience – and
is opened when self has attuned to the infinite, and may
be read by those attuning to that consciousness...
Q. The Book of God's Remembrances?
A. This is the Book of Life.
Q. The Akashic Records?
A. Those made by the individual, as just indicated.
2533-8
The Edgar Cayce readings
suggest that each of us writes the story of our lives
through our thoughts, our deeds, and our interactions
with the rest of creation. This information has an effect
upon us in the here and now. In fact, the Akashic Records
have such an impact upon our lives and the potentials
and probabilities we draw toward us that any exploration
of them cannot help but provide us with insights into
the nature of ourselves and our relationship to the universe.
There is much more
to our lives, our histories, and our individual influence
upon our tomorrows than we have perhaps dared to imagine.
By accessing information from the Akashic Records, the
universe's computer database, much might be revealed
to us. The world as we have collectively perceived it
is but a faint shadow of Reality.

The Book of Life—or the Akashic
Records—are the storehouse of all information
for every individual who has ever lived upon the earth,
containing every word, deed, feeling, thought, and
intent that has ever occurred. Learn how you are in
charge of shaping your own destiny and how you can
tap into your records—your past lives, your present
experiences, and your unfolding future—to create
the life you desire.
