We are tiny individualised information collectors
We collect data for storage, and that system works BOTH ways.
This is essentially the universe (library) - compiled via quantum entanglement connections between yourself and everything, which everyone has connection to.
All living experience is reflected here, also anyone and everyone can and does tune into this in either a fully conscious way or often on a subconscious channelling kind of way. It is a complete data repository of ALL universes and ALL times.
It is what I like to call my outside brain, my inside one has many deficiencies, limited not only by 5 senses - stupidly limited data receptors, but also limited by my own very unable to comprehend 3d brain I am forced to use.
My outside brain is exactly the same (as each quantum bit is entangled with it) but is unlimited, has the Akashic records to pull in instead of 5 senses.
So not only is the akashic records a database of everything but that you are also that same database with a stupidly limited capacity of understanding it. We are looking into that vastness by pulling a tiny drop out that we can understand and thinking we know everything. Like a man on a beach getting a droplet of water and thinking that's all there is to know about all of the oceans because he has seen that drop of water.
