Ignite your book into being through the Akasha.

Entering your legal name, entering the future name of your manuscript, entering your intentions through a prayer. Write inside this magical space using Suzanne Kingsbury's Gateless method, through prompts, through the deep inner knowingness of your being, from that well-spring within, with your Masters, Mistresses, Teachers and Loved Ones, as well as I. Murphy Lewis as your guide.

You will be entering the realm of the Akashic Records, your own library. The Akasha is a Sanskrit word which means space, æther or ether, the cosmic framework of the Universe, representing sky, open air, openness, vastness, potential and the limitless possibilities, the unseen container of things. Akasha is the subtlest of the five great elements within the Ayurvedic and yogic philosophy rooted in the ancient Vedic texts. It is considered the celestial expansiveness in the realm of the gods and goddesses, dancing within the mythic realms of stories old and new, all that was and is.

Murphy was initiated as a dream shaman through the Maasai Warriors, 1998 to 2004. Since 2007, she has been delving into the Lower, Middle and Upper shamanic realms for private clients. Through a guide, Murphy began accessing her Akashic Records in 2006. In 2013, she was introduced to an Akashic prayer, which led to opening the Akasha for clients as well. At the same time, she personally imbued her writing through the Akasha to frame the vibrational energy of her personal writings and in the completion of her book, Across the Divide to the Divine: an African Initiation. For the past four years, she has been working in the Akasha with individual writers to ignite their ideas, to bring them into form.

Across the Divide to the Divine

By I. Murphy Lewis

ACROSS THE DIVIDE TO THE DIVINE: AN AFRICAN INITIATION is of an American woman's initiatory journey before, through and after the Maasai Warriors, a story of reclamation. Inspired by the stories of the Kalahari, in search of more, Lewis takes flight from her fashion career to Botswana. Only to discover through an intuitive, she had been a San Bush-woman in 1787, who was kidnapped by the Maasai and dragged across the continent to heal their elderly. This pronouncement will lead her to Kenya in and out of NYC on her holidays where she will be immersed in the culture through a naming ceremony, a water ritual and the final fire walk, which will open her heart, awaken her to her gifts, catapult her out of the corporate world, transform the way she sees the seen and the unseen the worlds.
