"The akashic records (akasha is a Sanskrit word meaning 'sky', 'space' or 'aether') is a term used in theosophy (and Anthroposophy) to describe a compendium of mystical knowledge encoded in a non-physical plane of existence. These records are described to contain all knowledge of human experience and the history of the cosmos. They are metaphorically described as a library and other analogues commonly found in discourse on the subject include a 'universal computer' and the 'Mind of God'. Descriptions of the records assert that they are constantly updated and that they can be accessed through astral projection. The concept originated in the theosophical movements of the 19th century, and remains prevalent in New Age discourse."

Theosophy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Theosophy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Theosophy is a doctrine of religious philosophy and metaphysics originating with Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831-1891). In this context, theosophy holds that all religions are attempts by the 'Spiritual Hierarchy' to help humanity in evolving to greater perfection, and that each religion therefore has a portion of the truth. Together with Henry Steel Olcott, William Quan Judge, and others, Blavatsky founded the Theosophical Society in 1875."

To the philosopher, the body is "a disturbing element, hindering the soul from the acquisition of knowledge..."

...what is purification but...the release of the soul from the chains of the body?

— The Socrates of Plato, Phaedo

The three objects

First — To form a nucleus of the Universal Brotherhood of Humanity, without distinction of race, creed, sex, caste, or color.
Second — To encourage the study of Comparative Religion, Philosophy, and Science.
Third — To investigate the unexplained laws of Nature and the powers latent in man."^[1]

We took off from Edwards at 11:20 a.m. and completed the mission's
first leg without incident. After refueling from a KC-135 tanker, we
turned eastbound, accelerated to a Mach 3.2-cruise speed and climbed
to 78,000 ft., our initial cruise-climb altitude.

Reading

I just keep on reading that article and still it seems like I'm in a different world. That I'm not reading your name there, that this is all bad nightmare.

Even though we hadn't hung out in quite a while, I still wondered how you and p were doing since I knew the old building crumbled. And now you are gone and I can't say anything to you.

I know violence killed you and no amount of pain inflicted on these thugs will ever undo the person you were.

You were too young and too awesome to leave this place so soon.

Damnit, I can't believe you're gone man. I always hoped some day we'd hang out again and go to Rosa Maria for some burritos. Peace Be unto you.

Scientists Believe That Our Brains Could Possess Super-Powers | Wiseperception.com: "The human brain is often referred to as a Celestial Computer in view of the enormous mental functions, immeasurable hidden complexities and un-deciphered impulses of consciousness processed through it. Indefinable source of distinct talents and potentials are embedded within the human brain.

However, some of the most incredible minds on Earth lack this ability to filter irrelevant facts, or perhaps it is more accurate to say that to a savant, the irrelevant IS relevant, and incredibly so. Somehow their brains are able to store and access incredible loads of information, even perceiving and relating to this information in an entirely different way. Stephen Wiltshire is considered an autistic savant. He has an ability which can certainly be described as a 'super power'. Sometimes referred to as the 'human camera', Wilshire has the unnerving ability to draw exact replicas of intricate structures, buildings and landscapes-virtually anything he lays eyes on-after a quick glance. Without taking notes or drawing rough sketches, Wiltshire methodically replicates what his eyes have seen down to the exact number of windows in tall skyscrapers."

DRUDGE FLASH 2009®: OBAMA RE-SWORN IN

"OBAMA RE-SWORN IN

At 735 pm, Roberts administred the oath of office again to obama in the map room. Robert gibbs said the wh counsel, greg craig, believes the oath was fine Tuesday, but one word was out of sequence so they did this out of a 'an abundance of caution.' 'We decided it was so much fun...' Obama joked while sitting on a couch. Obama stood and walked over to make small talk with pool as roberts donned his black robe. 'Are you ready to take the oath?' Roberts asked. 'I am, and we're going to do it very slowly,' obama replied. Oath took 25 seconds. After a flawless recitation, roberts smiled and said, 'congratulations, again.' Obama said, 'thank you, sir.' Smattering of applause. 'All right.' Obama said. 'The bad news for the pool is there's 12 more balls.'"
