  Akashic Brotherhood - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Akashic Brothers (and Sisters) believe in, and strive to attain, the perfect harmony of one's individual mind with the One Mind.
Mystics of the Brotherhood share belief common to most mystic traditions of the world: that internal microcosm of mind is interconnected with macrocosm of nature.
As previously said, the aim of Akashic Brothers is to attain oneness with both internal and external universe, the peaceful transcendence in creative emptiness of One Mind.

 How to be an Akashic Brother or Die Trying
Akashics tend to follow either a Hard or Soft style, which manifests itself not just in how they fight, but also in their personalities, actions, and the spheres they master.
Akashic Strengths: Akashics are best at effecting their own body, but they can use their knowledge of the body's chi flows to affect other living beings quite easily as well.
Every Akashic has some ability to do this, they believe, but this is the sphere of the true Chi master, who can achieve the greatest feats by tapping the Chi of the earth and drawing it into himself to store it, as well as simply redirecting or destroying flows.

Akashic Brothers is the one that stands out in my mind as the most unimpressive of the four earliest (only before...ech...Verbena).
The history is vivid, and well done, giving the Brotherhood much-deserved depth, in compairson to the 2nd edition book, where they were largely portrayed as Mono-Asians with no national ties, and little history beyond being from Meru (the original, mountain village where all humanity originated, according to the Akashics), and founding the Shaolin temple.
There are several intresting sidebars here, one on Religion and the Akashic Brotherhood (Which I honestly do hope we see in other upcoming traditionbooks, Religion and the Dreamspeakers, Religion and the Euthanatos...etc...etc...) that covers the mileu from Jains, to Confucians, to even Christians.

There is little Akashic presence within the city and what is there tends to be diplomatic envoys sent to speak with members of the other traditions.
However, there are one or two Akashic Brothers who have taken up a permanent residence in the city, in the name of keeping constant communications with their brethren or just to indulge their own curiosity about the Western world.
These members are members of the Theosophical covenant, where they attempt to clarify some of the more difficult philosophical points of their native beliefs for the members, as well as taking advantage of the diverse membership to learn more about the other traditions.

This is a history of the Akashic Brotherhood, not the history of Asia, though there is some solid information about the old intra-tradition rivalries, which, in typical White Wolf fashion, blend into historical conflicts between nations.
These are more-or-less reverse-engineered from the religion section in Dragons of the East, but the specific nature of the interplay between the religions and the Akashic outlook is much appreciated.
Also, since the Akashic party line states that all creatures may work towards Samadhi (remember the Lexicon?), their outlook on some of the -ahem- less humane groups may be a bit more accepting than the average magus.

Further, the views and goals of the Akashics are explored: Those who see only self-torturing ascetics are failing to understand the point.
The goal of the truly enlightened is not to punish the body, but rather to cease to be distracted by it.
The prose is breathtaking, and seeing Akashic students and masters as they confront a crisis definitely gives greater insight into the Brotherhood.
