Found couple of verses may be will post an answer. How is it related to the earth or a material body Though we know it's different from air and recedes into outer space, how is it possible to add akasha as an element which forms our body How do i explain this to a scholar and explain its significance?

It is one of the 5 material elements It is the first element to evolve from saguna brahman It comes from om, the initial manifestation of brahman From akasha come the other 4 elements The 5 elements are unmixed and subtle. 2 Madhwas hold that Akasha was not created and it was eternally present. But Taittiriya Upanishad, Brahmananda Valli, First Shloka (2.1.1) says तस्मा॒द्वा ए॒तस्मा॑ दा॒त्मन॑ आका॒शः सम्भू॑तः । Tasmadva etasmad atmana akasas sambhutah From Atma Akasha was created.
