Some Important Distinctions

When we think about the quantum vacuum or the Akashic Field (the Akashic Record) it is easy to misconceive the nature of that level of reality.
One error is to simply think of it as just a huge energy field like electricity. Then we start to think that energy just randomly flows from one level into the other level as if it were just a giant electricity generator.
The other misconception is that it is simply like a film record of all the physical events that occurred throughout history.
Both these conceptions are inadequate.
It would be closer to say that it is the repository of the Platonic forms (ideas) or archetypes. That it is the repository of the giant patterns that we call "myths".
In other words it is not simply the record of the actual events but of the patterns and forms that physical events conform to and the personal manifestations of those patterns.

It is also important to realize that it is not impersonal.
It is a living intelligence with consciousness. In this respect, it is closer to being the mind of God. Everything is connected.
And it has its own time which is eternal (continuously present) in relation to our time.
(Actually this higher realm itself consists of further levels).

It is also important to keep in mind that it interpenetrates all of reality (all of matter, all of space).
