   Nothing to get; it's just like a gigantic library of all the everything   
   that has ever been, and sometimes some people get to do a little   
   studying there.  Mostly I think we (very sensibly) ignore the place   
   and/or are not let in because remembering too much would interfere with   
   clear perception of the present life and unencumbered decision-making   
   here -- too much echo in the chamber to hear the music that's actually   
   being played.   
      
   On the other hand, people doing current lives which they have chosen to   
   have active, unscripted spiritual facets apparently make use of visits   
   to or from the Akashic plane in the ongoing shaping of the current life.   
   We just don't all do that all the time, and in most lifetimes most of us   
   probably don't do it at all.  I think the Akashic records are there for   
   consultation *between* lives, when you're thinking about what to take on   
   next -- then, an overview of your own lives and those of others you   
   often interact with would probably be pretty useful.
