To help humanity towards the realisation of its higher possibilities, it is very important to understand how water, air, earth, fire and the fifth dimension, the largest one, the space or akash, behave. Today modern science has recognised that there is something called as akashik intelligence; that is, empty space has a certain kind of intelligence.
Whether this intelligence works for you or against you will determine the nature of your life. Whether you are a blessed being or one who is going to be knocked around for the rest of your life depends on your use of this intelligence.
For no reason, some people are buffeted around by life while some people are blessed with life’s beauty and bounties. However, the truth is no action takes place without any reason. It is your ability — either consciously or unconsciously — to be able to get the cooperation of this larger intelligence, which is at work all the while. It is improper to call akash the fifth element, because it is the cardinal element. All the other four just play upon it. Now we live on a planet that is round in shape. The earth, the solar system, this galaxy, the whole cosmos, everything is held in place only by akash. You yourself are held in place by akash. At any time, when you hit a peak experience, physically without even your awareness, your body in gratitude looks upward because somewhere there is a recognition – there is an intelligence in every human being which recognises that.
If you know how to get the cooperation of akash in your life, yours will be a blessed life. An intelligence that you have never thought of will become yours, as an intelligence which is beyond your conscious understanding and grasp is right now functioning right here within you. It is that intelligence which is holding the whole cosmos together; it is that intelligence which is the womb for creation. It is in the womb of that intelligence that all creation is happening.
So to get the cooperation of akash, there is one simple process you can follow. After sunrise, before the sun crosses the 30-degree angle from the horizon, look up at the sky once and bow down to it for holding you in place today. After the sun crosses 30 degrees, sometime during the day, any time, look up and bow down again. After the sun sets, once again look up and bow down; not to some god up there, just to the empty space for holding you where you are today. If you just do this, life will change dramatically. If you consciously do this three times a day, if you get cooperation from akash, life will move on in a magical way.
