Akasha
I put what is already written in a discussion’s thread, if it doesn’t bother.
“Hello all, as we can read in IIH that the Akasha is
linked to the fifth center in the neck, does anyone know the
relation, or analogies, between Akasha and the physiological
functions of this region of the human body, or organs, like vocal
cords? It is also the way through which food, water and air pass.
Thank you very much.”
Jake
“Thats the general consensus. In the IIH book, the middle
finger is connected to the Akasha; however, according to Vedic
thought and also in marks experience the thumb is connected to
Akasha. I agree with that more from split testing both approaches as
well. Placing your hand on your stomach, those fingers align with the
chakras in accordance to the density of the energy. Vocal cords and
Akasha are definitely connected. try out the “aum” mantra when
you are connecting with the sun sphere. Akasha is the empty form of
everything and so much more. It can never be truly defined, as it is
the most undeniable mechanic and principle underneath and beyond all
form. Only we can experience aspects of how our sensory perception
interacts with it and manipulates matter. The best we can do is to
practice with it and revel in the mystery. Have fun! “______________________________________
Thanks for your answer Jake. I would add, as the thumb can touch all over fingers, it gives it even more credit.</font>
Imagine a place, where, what is normally full, is now empty of its matter, and only lines that defines the structure remain (like a 3D CAD), and where you can move, between 2 points, instantly. Can we define this place as Akashic? A “place” which structure the world before manifesting it?
If the vocal cords are connected to the Akasha, the source of the necessary vibration, to make the “structure”, created in the Akasha (essentially?), coming into life, via the voice, is it located in the DanTian or Svadhisthana chakra? If so, we should learn to use the whole air column of our body, like singers or wind instruments musicians. If so, can we use wind instruments instead of the voice to apply the kabbalistic art? Thank you.

That’s “a way” to define it, but we miss out on it by defining it in absolute terms. We can define it in relation to our experience or reaction to it, as long as we are careful to not characterize it as that definitively. It is conceptually the most undefinable, mysterious thing that we could possibly relate to. Think of it like, “The tao that is spoken about is not the true tao” By defining it, we are losing out perceptually on everything else that isn’t labeled by our very limited experience. It’s like trying to understand everything that exists on the planet earth while blindfolded by feeling with our hands. It’s just not possible, otherwise we are deceiving ourselves. The fewer labels, the more we can experience it in its trueness. Try Doing all of the akasha letters, followed by focusing primarily on the kabbalah letter “u” during and let me know if you feel different haha!
Love your point about thumbs touching over all fingers, I feel there’s definitely something between that and the power of many mudras.
You can definitely produce Chi energy through instruments. There are YouTube videos of folks demonstrating that. That would be useful for group practices. when I listen to music, sometimes I’ll run kabbalah letters or planetary energies through that. This isn’t serious practice, but it is enriching to use kabbalah for mundane purposes, sometimes for my preferences. Most practitioners don’t do this, as the more reverent you are about kabbalah, the more you can do some of the wilder stuff and get into deep transcendental states like mentioned in the book. For me, engaging in some mundane kabbalah “play” makes me practice more and gives me more intuition about the letters manifesting in real-time throughout the day
Doing “aum” while connecting with the sunsphere, especially focusing on the akashic center of the sun will definitely bring you clarity on in relation to singing and your body mechanics.
