Akasha (Sanskrit kk a ???? ) is a good name for space or ÃÆ'Â|ther in traditional Indian cosmology, depending on religion. This term has also been adopted in Western occultism and spiritualism at the end of the 19th century. In Urdu-Hindi, Nepali and Bengali, it means "sky". In many modern Indo-Aryan languages, the appropriate word (often translated Akash ) preserves the generic meaning of "heaven".

The word in Sanskrit comes from the root k ?? which means "visible". It appears as a masculine noun in Sanskrit Vedic with the generic meaning of "open space, emptiness". In Classical Sanskrit, nouns acquire a neutral gender and can express the concept of "the atmosphere sky" (Manusmrti, Shatapathabrahmana). In Vedanta's philosophy, the word derives the technical meaning of "subtle fluid imaginable as covering the cosmos".
Hinduism
In Vedanta Hinduism, Akasha means the basis and essence of all things in the material world; the first material element created from the astral world. Vedic mantra "p? Thivy? Pastejov? Yur? K ??? t" shows the sequence of the initial appearance of the five basic elements of the dirty. So, first comes the space, from which air appears, from fire or energy, from which water, and from there earth. This is one of the Panchamahabhuta, or "the five crude elements"; its main characteristic is Shabda (voice). The direct translation of Akasha is a word that means "heaven above" or "space" in Hinduism.
The Nyaya and Vaisheshika schools of Hindu philosophy state that Akasha or ether is the fifth physical substance, which is the substrate of sound quality. It is an One , Eternal , and All Pervading physical substance, which is not visible.
According to Samkhya school, Akasha is one of the five Mah? Bh? Bags (great physical elements) that have certain sound properties.
Adherents of heterodox philosophy C? Rv? Ka or Lok? Yata states that the world is made of four elements only. They exclude the fifth, Akasha, because their existence can not be felt.
Jainism
Akasha is a space in Jain's conception of the cosmos. Akasha is one of the six dravyas (substances) and it accommodates the other five, ie living or soul ( j 'Va ), non-matter substance or matter > pudgala ), the principle of motion ( dharma ), the principle of rest ( adharma ) and time ( k? la )
It's all-encompassing, infinite and made of infinite spaces.
This falls into the category Ajiva , divided into two parts: Loakasa (part occupied by the material world) and Aloacasa empty and empty) In Loops the universe only forms partly. Akasha is the one who spaces and gives space for the existence of all the substances that are expanded.
On top of lok? K ?? a is Siddhashila (the abode of liberated souls).
Buddhism
In Buddhist phenomenology, Akasha is divided into the confined spaces (? K? Sa-dh? Tu) and endless space (ajat? Kas?).
The Vaibhashika, the early school of Buddhist philosophy, maintains Akasha's existence to be real.
? k? sa identified as ar ar pa jhÄ na first, but usually translated as "infinite space."

Modern reception
Western philosophy of religion called Theosophy has popularized the word Akasha as an adjective, through the use of the term "Akashic records" or "Akashic library", referring to the etheric summaries of all knowledge and history.
Scott Cunningham (1995) uses the term Akasha to refer to "the spiritual power that Earth, the Air, the Fire, and the Water descended from".
Ervin LÃÆ'¡szlÃÆ'³ in the Science and the Akashic Fields: The Integral Theory of Everything (2004), based on the idea by Rudolf Steiner, argues "the field of information" as the substance of the cosmos, which he calls "Akashic field" or "A- field ".
