Synopsis "Song of Enoch: Enoch and the Watchers (in English)"
There are few figures that stand for mystery in the Abrahamic religions like unto Enoch. Enoch had a fate that no other human had -- God took him to heaven alive -- in his physical body. He had enjoyed an earthly life of 365 years (symbolic of wholeness), and ascended with his humanity (and Desires) intact. He is the only human to withstand the presence of God. That his name means "Initiated One" is a clue. He is not like Adam or Cain or even his son Methuselah. He is "Initiated." He is the archetype of seeking change, and his name is prized in various circles from the Church of Latter Day Saints to the esoteric writing of John Dee. Three apocryphal books are attributed to him, which are the inspiration for this poem. He does four things that make him a model for Initiation: 1. He is a just man -- good to family and community. 2. However he fearlessly pursues knowledge for both power and pleasure 3. He finds that knowledge that he needs to change the outer and inner worlds is the knowledge of how things came into being. In short he learns that the world is not what we see, but a series of relationships begun in primeval times. If you know the root, you can know the fruits. 4. By the act of seeking knowledge he immortalizes and perfects his own being. The legend of Enoch, like that of Prometheus or Odhinn (Odin), will appeal only to certain souls. It will appeal to well-grounded humans that love their fellows, but burn with deep desire to know the real secrets. It will appeal to the brave who will listen to Fallen Angels as well as God -- and we are willing to teach what they have gained. It will appeal to those who wish to make the whole of themselves divine -- not just the shiny bits. His age is a clue to his wholeness. Enoch is the representative of the creative minority that makes civilization for all. He is the patron of Initiation and Initiators. Only a human like unto Enoch -- a seeker, a good human, a brave human and a teacher could write these verses. As such the verses themselves have the effect of Enoch's book. If you belong to this class of beings, read Judith's words. Let them wash over you. Let them inspire you to search, to teach, to seek the secret of the stars. Don Webb Uncle SetNakt's Nightbook
