Science and the Akashic Field: An Integral Theory of Everything

Irvin Laszlo's "Science and the Akashic Field" discusses his theory that there is more to reality than the physical realm of modern science. His central point is this: "we need to recognize the presence of a factor that is neither matter nor energy. The importance of this factor is now acknowledged not only in the human and social sciences, but also in the physical and life sciences. It is information - information as a real and effective factor setting the parameters of the universe at its birth, and thereafter governing the evolution of its basic elements into complex systems ... It is the presence of in-formation throughout the cosmos, carried and conveyed by the universal in-formation field we have named the Akashic field."Laszlo credits David Bohm with some of the insights underlying his (Laszlo's) theory: "other physicists, among them David Bohm, refused to accept the quantum physical concept as a full description of reality. His "hidden variables theory" suggests that the selection of the state of the quantum is not random; it is guided by an underlying physical process. In Bohm's theory a pilot wave, indentified as the quantum potential "Q", emerges from a deeper, unobservable domain of the universe and guides the observed behavior of particles. Thus, particle behavior is indeterministic only at the surface; at the deeper level it is determined by the quantum potential. Later Bohm called the deeper level of reality the "implicate order", a holofield where all the states of the quantum are permanently coded. Observed reality is the "explicate order"; it is rooted in, and unfolds from, the implicate order." I find similarities between the ideas of Bohm and Laszlo and those of Michael Talbot "The Holographic Universe"; Gregg Braden "The Divine Matrix"; Dean Radin "Entangled Minds"; Bruce Lipton "The Biology of Belief" and Bernard Haisch "The God Theory". In various ways these writers have postulated connectivity or "entanglement" between all (including concealed) aspects of the universe.Like the authors mentioned above, Laszlo acknowledges the reality of spirituality: "Intercessory prayer and spiritual healing, together with other mind- and conscious intent-based practices yield impressive evidence regarding the effectiveness of telepathic and telesomatic information- and energy-transmission. The practices produce real and measurable effects, but classical medicine and the mainstream of Western science have no explanation for them." The implicate order, akashic or zero-point field, psi, or matrix, may be related to the ancient concept of a ubiquitous ether, and to tao and karma; if so, they might one day help us to integrate not just science and religion but also religion and religion. Regardless of how much of Laszlo's theories one accepts as factual or probable, his writing is absorbing and way of looking at the world is mind-opening and worthy of reflection.

In de;t work on the Akashic Field and quantum wave motion. It is a good read for the understanding of what the quantum field is in terms of quantum physics. Still reading but the reading is thought provoking.

I have had a passion for science (physics, cosmology, astronomy and space travel) since my early youth. Recently while surfing on Amazon I came across this very interesting and informative 194 page soft cover book (Science and the Akashic Field: An integral theory of everything by Ervin Laszlo) which I purchased for a bargain price.This book explores the ideas, scientific theories and hypothesis of many our most brilliant scientists in their search for a theory of everything in the universe. This text is organized into two parts. Part one explains the basic foundations of an integral of theory of everything. Various principles are explored concerning Quantum [physics, cosmology, and biology. The second part of this book covers the in-formed universe and deals with the origins and destiny of life and the universe and consciousness-human and cosmic and the poetry of akashic vision.The author explains even complex ideas in a way that the average educated person can easily grasp and understand. If you are interested in questions and possible answers to the many mysteries of the cosmos, you should checkout this book.Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Chair/Seated tai Chi, Qigong and Yoga stretching for seniors and the physically challenged).

I would recommend some background study before tackling this book. I went into it cold and ended up reading the whole book three times and several chapters several times. Good read but very technical.

Fascinating information

I am reading too many books, all at once, and discovered through the Amazon firestick that there is a huge library of educational materials out there. I bought this book because of some of the videos discussing the new perceptions of science and religion and philosophy. Fascinating. Very disruptive when I have so much else to do, but just a delight. Should mention that the authors provide a good bridge to the various scientific and conceptual modalities. Ha, I always wanted to be able to say something that pretentious. and it fits. It is the door to another new understanding of the cosmos.

Want to know why you have knowledge of some things and have never studied or learned these things? The A field is giving you this IN- Formation.

This is the most important book I have ever read. I have had personal struggles re: my beliefs which are not in line with main stream religion. So I have spent most of my adult life believing what works for me. Ervin Laszlo's book has essentially confirmed my personal beliefs and for me makes great sense about the universe(God) and how we are all connected. Reincarnation and near death experiences are dealt with in the book. Very inspirational. The early part of the book covers topics necessary for the overall point that he makes but is not simple to follow for a layman, but don't let that discourage you from reading the whole book.

prompt delivery. loved this book, layman's introduction to quantum physics

An amazing book, inspiring amazing insights, confirmed by Laszlo’s further books, coherent and concordant with other similar must reads, like Richard Tarnas’s “Cosmos & Psyche” , and all: Archetypal Astrology , and Joseph Campbell ‘s writings narrating the Mythic Initiations and Ascension rituals of the Hero within each of us…Laszlo’s descriptions of the Quantum Field, with its singularities, particles, patterns and behaviors, makes the Akashic Field and Chronicles look strangely like a magnifying mirror images of the Observers’s minds and thoughts processes, expectations and intentions, derived from their theories, equations, geometries and Coherences Syntheses of all the possibilities of Everything Possible.As below, so above. The observable Cosmos is also a collective of sentient quantum fields , full of stars as quantas of Conscious Intelligences , and full of Live Civilizations as patterns of entanglements.Humans are somewhere in between, entangled in this Sun-Earth’s quantum field, in a far suburb of this Milky Way galaxy. Earth’s Humans are not alone, just not Collectively Civilized enough yet to be worthy of offers of sharing “strategic alliances” with other Stellar Communities.ETs have been here, long long ago, per Humanity’s Myths, Legends, Circular Calendars and Sacred Teachings. ETs will be here again, shortly, after Humans self-destruct, after the bees, sea mammals and Trees. ETs are likely already sorry and disappointed by the needed tasks awaiting Them, to clean up and restore Earth’s environments from all the messy damages and wastes Humans are leaving behind.Namaste !

Ottimo per comprendere i principi della meccanica o fisica quantistica! Concetti un po’ difficili da comprendere dato che si tratta di una materia ancora in stato embrionale. Comunque, consiglio la lettura; anche se, nel caso in questione, occorre avere una buona conoscenza della lingua inglese.

Lo más acertado, en mi opinión, es la interpretación del campo Akashico como el vínculo de información subyacente a la realidad empírica.

The topic was explored very well.
