According to the philosphers of India, the whole universe is composed of two materials, one of which they call Akasha. It is the omnipresent, all-penetrating existence. Everything that has form, everything that is a result of a combination, is evolved out of Akasha. It is Akasha that becomes the air, that becomes the liquids, that becomes the solids; it is Akasha that becomes the Sun and the Earth, the Moon, the stars, the comets; it is Akasha that becomes the human body, the animal body, the plants, every form we see, everything that can be sensed, everything that exists. It cannot be perceived; it is so subtle that it is beyond all ordinary perception; it can only be seen when it has become gross, has taken form. At the beginning of creation there is only this Akasha. At the end of the cycle the solid, the liquids, and the gases, all melt back into the Akasha again, and the next creation similarily proceeds out of this Akasha....
Vivekananda in Science and the Akashic Field pg 76
I knew I was led to this book when I seen this quote from Vivekananda. This is where the great mind of science and the great mind of metaphysics meet. Blown away.
All is well.
