The Lost Key to the Scriptures

The Lost Key to the Scriptures is a book written by Alvin Boyd Kuhn that explores the hidden meanings and symbolism behind religious texts such as the Bible, the Quran, and the Bhagavad Gita. Kuhn argues that these texts are not meant to be taken literally, but rather as allegories that contain profound spiritual truths. He contends that the true message of these texts has been lost over time due to mistranslations and misinterpretations. Kuhn's book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the history of religion and the evolution of religious thought. The second part delves into the symbolism and allegory of religious texts, exploring themes such as the nature of God, the meaning of life, and the afterlife. The third part offers practical advice on how to apply these spiritual truths to one's own life.Throughout the book, Kuhn draws on a wide range of sources, including ancient mythology, philosophy, and esoteric traditions. He argues that the true meaning of religion is not found in dogma or doctrine, but rather in the spiritual insights that can be gained through a deeper understanding of the symbolism and allegory of religious texts.The Lost Key to the Scriptures is a thought-provoking and challenging book that will appeal to anyone interested in the deeper meaning of religion and spirituality. Kuhn's insights into the hidden meanings of religious texts offer a fresh perspective on these ancient traditions and provide a valuable guide for those seeking to deepen their own spiritual understanding.An essay by the author of the popular New Lectures on the Ancient Wisdom series that puts forth the theory that the commonly held beliefs about the Bible as a book, its date, authorship and inspiration is all quite erroneous. Kuhn asserts that three words, the dead, death and to die bear a meaning that is different from the one commonly supposed to be their standard and established acceptation and offers support for this belief in the body of the text.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
