The Akasha chronicle is the spiritual world memory, the Akasha material, in which the spiritual researcher can read the events of the most distant past - not, however, as they occurred directly on the outside, but from the side of the inner soul experience.

World memory in the Western tradition

Accounts of world memory can already be found in Plotinus, Marsilio Ficino, Paracelsus, to some extent also in Agrippa von Nettesheim, and later in the 19th century in Eduard von Hartmann, the philosopher of the unconscious, to whom Rudolf Steiner dedicated his fundamental philosophical work «Truth and Knowledge» (GA 3). The idea of a world memory is also an integral part of the Christian tradition, for example in the celebration of the Mass for the deceased (Missa pro defunctis) from the Missale curiale (1472) or also the Missale Romanum (1570) of the Roman Catholic Church. The Dies irae of the Missa pro defunctis reads:

Liber scriptus proferetur
in quo totum continetur,
unde mundus iudicetur.

A written book will be brought forward,
in which all things are contained,
according to which the world shall be judged.

In the tradition of the Old and New Testament, the Book of Life (Hebrew: סֵפֶר חִיִּים Sefer Chajim) is mentioned several times, in which the names of all the righteous who will not be thrown into the lake of fire on the Day of Judgement and will not suffer the second death are inscribed.

Helena Petrovna Blavatsky referred to this world memory in her 1877 work «Isis Unveiled», speaking of "metaphysical tablets", "daguerreotypes printed on the astral light", records "of all that was, is or ever will be" and which would be "presented to the eye of the seer and prophet as a living image" (Lit.: Blavatsky, p. 178ff).
