The Book Of Knowledge The Keys Of Enoch Pdf Zip

As a lawyer who has worked with Dr. J.J. Hurtak, the subject of a lengthy article on your website, I have just read the above captioned piece by Carol S. Matthews and feel compelled to respond on behalf of Dr. J.J. Hurtak. The paper presented at the CESNUR 2004 International Conference at Baylor University in Waco Texas on June 18-20 2004, by Carol S. Matthews misconstrues the spirit and meaning of Dr. Hurtak s book (The Book of Knowledge: The Keys of Enoch).
Ms. Matthews focuses on Key 109 within the larger text of Dr. J.J. Hurtak's writing on science, psychology and religious philosophy. What must be realized is that this key or chapter is clearly addressing the field of astrophysics and is not related to any one cultural syntax or reference point. Verse 15 of Key 109 expressly states that "this key is directed to human astrophysics." Throughout the Key, one examines the various stages of stellar evolution through various historic and contemporary symbols of astrophysics, from the Sanskrit and Arabic to modern Western models. Within the context of astrophysical models, Mecca is actually described by Dr. Hurtak as a sacred area showing the function--namely, beginning of end, of cosmogenesis of 'universes' (plural).
Dr. Hurtak, speaking from an astrophysics standpoint speaks specifically of the Black Cube as exemplifying the nature of condensed matter which in Islamic tradition is the 'meteorite material' placed in the Black Cube of Mecca. Key 109 is showing all stages of star birth, death and recreation. The Black Cube is not referenced as a negative nexus point but rather as a connector with dark matter and dark energy critical for the original and ongoing expansion of creation. The word 'dark,' relative to dark energy and dark matter, is not to be associated with dark or darkness in the biblical sense. The interplay of matter is not to be confused with the higher message of Islam; in fact, the 64 Keys of Enoch speak of a divine synthesis where Mecca is mentioned as being the place of the Black Cube showing an appreciation of this sacred site for the early stages of cosmic evolution and part of the evolutionary building blocks. Any meteorite material would be indicative of the transitory nature of our life in space just as the Alan Hills meteorite sample from Antartica (AHL 84001) shows the dust and debris from our sister planet Mars that holds secrets for the understanding of evolution in our solar system.
In fact, Dr. Hurtak's work has been one of promoting a synthesis and a cumulative understanding of all the great religions including Judaism, Christianity and Islam. This is evidenced throughout his work for interfaith dialog. If one reviewed the work on Dr. Hurtak's website there is an area that deals with the most frequently asked questions. It has been crystal clear that his approach is one of harmonization of the religions of the Near East and the rest of the world.
On the website in the section entitled Questions and Answers in issues of religion he is asked: How is the message of the keys reflected regarding various religions such as Islam. His response is: Enoch known as Idris, is an important prophet in the Islamic culture and the higher message of Islam is reflected in several passages of The Keys. The Keys additionally speak of the Sufi teaching as part of the teachings of light especially in the context of The Keys as musical keys of knowledge for the soul.
Not only does Ms. Matthews misinterpret Dr. Hurtak's comments on Key 109 but she also asserts that Dr. Hurtak has alleged CIA connections. even going so far as stating that he may be a CIA consultant. These type of allegations are spreading untruth and is clearly beneath the level of any genuine scholarship which we hope that Baylor University and CESNUR would represent. In fact, this smacks of character assassination as in the McCarthy era when progressive thinkers were attacked as spies or agents. No one who knows Dr. Hurtak would ever consider him connected with the CIA and the focus of the discussion if anything should remain in the area of astrophysics. Key 109 simply does not represent a political agenda in contrast to what the author Matthews brings into the picture of a world of 'haves' verses 'have nots' masquerading as an elite group of people.
Another picture in the Book of Knowledge entitled Plate 7 for Key 114 shows a Mosque side by side an Ashram within a futuristic religious community showing a deep pluralism and unity of the Abrahamic religions with those also of the Eastern tradition. Further on page 180 there is a picture of the Shepherd of Arcturus connected with the key of astrophysics and cosmology. Some parts of the text are written in Arabic because the key acknowledges the great tradition of Islamic philosophers and astronomers who actually reshaped the renaissance of the West. Thus, if one carefully reads the Book of Knowledge in a spirit of love (non-dualistic) one sees the collective nature of the ecumenical fellowship.
More importantly, in Key 307 we see children of the world of all different backgrounds. One of the children has the Islamic symbol on his shoulder, another child the indigenous religious symbol, etc., showing all branches of the planetary spiritual family sharing the wisdom of Mary; the divine mother with the interrelation of the angelic hierarchy. In another context, in Key 207, there is another illustration which shows the philosophical black cube representing the Philosopher's Stone that one has to be part as a key basic mathematical symbol of life before we can graduate from our physics into the reality of being aware that we are a multi-dimensional being. The Keys, thus, carry and display a message of openness to all major religious traditions, including all people of the world who join hands on planet Earth.
In fact, when the KEYS address the people of the world it refers to all people. Dr. Hurtak speak of the limitation of singular sun systems, whereby the term 'sons of darkness' refers to a restrictive culture, which is restricted due to our singular stellar system. The goal of graduation is for all of humankind, and for all religions to move from the restrictive light of a singular sun system (such as ours) to a multi-sun system or a higher Light system so that we, as sons of darkness by virtue of being under a single stellar system can evolve beyond the restricted system (see Glossary under title 'Sons of Light.'). The message of the Keys is that we will need to evolve beyond this solar system. There is no implication that the people of any one race, color or religion are condemned by virtue of their incarnation; as a matter of fact several plates in Hurtak's book illustrate this.
One of the plates in The Book of Knowledge shows in Key 303 an illustration of a divine family of God with the image of Christ with numerous other angelic faces of many cultures and backgrounds on page 375. However, within the wheel of faces in the center is placed a woman showing the female nature that is hidden within each of us, the inner scribe or 'Yophiel' appears as the Islamic Woman who represents all the women of the world who emerge as the inner voice of theological teaching in the circle of the Divine Family.
Such statements made by Matthews as "As Muslims circumambulate around their most sacred shrine in Mecca, they are exhibiting the 'black hole function' of refusing to evolve up to the next level of organic organization" are her own words and do not even come close to any commentary that could be found in The Keys of Enoch. Further terminology of Ms. Matthews that Muslims guided by extraterrestrial forces from alpha Draconis are "vampirically infected by the resulting energies of degeneration, vengeance and anti-evolution" are also NOT to be found in Hurtak's writing. Instead of listening to someone who seems to not understand what they are reading, nor has ever asked the author for his understanding, we recommend that each reader is invited to carefully read and re-read the Keys of Enoch.
I believe the reader will find that the Keys instead throw light on how science and religion share common objectives for humanity. This understanding according to Hurtak is that we are all apart of one person (Adam) who emerges out of material reductionism. Far from being a book of racial intolerance, this book is in keeping with the spirit of Divine Love in showing the symbols of all major religions are from the higher Divine Source that is beyond cultural and linguistic separations of history.
In short, The Book of Knowledge clearly acknowledges that the Black Cube of Mecca represents an astrophysical power point connected with the heavens in determining the axis mundi of the world. The very way that Mecca is mentioned clearly reflects that it is an astrophysical mirror for heavenly events. One sees that the emphasis is bringing together the many disciplines of archaeology, astronomy, cosmology and the direct experience of the higher nature of 'unity' with all branches of the human race.
Finally, Dr. Hurtak has argued and presented to the Parliament of the World's Religions at its meeting in Barcelona, Spain (July 2004) and its previous meeting in Capetown, South Africa (1999), that we must all have respect for all religions and faiths. At the Barcelona conference, his students presented an architectural model with the symbols of the three religions of Abraham with the hope of building a shrine of peace on the Golan Heights as a central focus of brotherhood. Traditionally, Mt. Hermon in the Golan is the place where the angels of the Most High God were said to come down to earth. Dr. Hurtak has argued before world wide audiences for compassion, brotherhood and unity and the need to build a shrine to all three religions, the religions of Abraham, in this sacred location.
