Exploring Time: A Journey from Quantum Fields to Spiritual Wisdom, Part 2 of 2

Theosophy spiritualist Dr. Rudolf Steiner (vegetarian), whose ideas – including vegetarianism - have inspired an educational system that thrives today, once lectured the following on time and the Akashic Records: “In the spiritual sense, what is ‘past’ has not really passed away but is still there.” In his book Science and the Akashic Field: An Integral Theory of Everything, Dr. Ervin László describes the Akashic Records as a record of everything that has ever happened. “The Akashic Field is our experience of the universe. Everything that ever happened is still there. And everything evolves, either goes down and starts again from a lower level, which can also happen with extinctions of species, which supernovae of stars happens, or it continues to evolve.”

Aulacese (Vietnamese) Zen Master Thích Nhất Hạnh (vegan), renowned for his gentle yet profound insights, taught us that by embracing mindfulness, we can transcend the limitations of our physical existence and connect with the infinite cosmos within us. “All the generations of the past and the future are there in your tiny body and if you have that insight, it is easy to touch eternity in the present moment. When you breathe in mindfully with concentration, you can touch eternity. When you make a step mindfully with concentration, you can touch eternity and infinity.”

As kindly explained by our Most Insightful Supreme Master Ching Hai (vegan), the future can be seen and predicted. Yet even an accurate prediction may not come to pass. “They all did say the right thing. The disaster could befall humankind.” “I just remembered that I told you about how maybe there’s a pandemic coming, very likely. I don’t always know the exact date, because humans’ hearts keep changing, and humans’ karma is changing also.”
