The Archives: This feature contains thousands of articles
written and posted to "The Keys Of Knowledge" spiritual discussion forum at Yahoo Groups by JJ Dewey. The order of the articles as they appear
in "The Archives" is determined by the chronological order of the articles as they were posted, and are not grouped by subject. The archived articles
are divided into sequentially numbered indexes of 100 articles. Individual articles in each index are
numbered according to the numbered index in which they appear. The title of each article is an active link that will take you
directly to the archived article.
Search Archives: If you have already identified a topic of interest, the
feature allows you to search thousands of archived articles using key words and phrases. The search results provides excerpts from archived
articles containing the key word and phrase along with a URL to articles in the search results.
From The Archives: This feature is a three part subjective or topical collection of links to articles found
in "The Archives" that cover a wide variety of topics that JJ Dewey has written about.
- Part One -- Cornerstone Teachings. These
topics and collections of links to archived articles were selected as being representative of the more primary teachings of JJ Dewey.
- Part Two -- Selected Readings While no
less important than the teachings found in "Part One," these link collections of articles were selected based upon a broader
scope of interest.
- Part Three -- Short Subjects. The only
thing "short" about these subjects is the number of links associated with each collection. Outside of the limited number of
links in each collection, the subjects themselves may be some of the most "deep" and possibly some of the most interesting
and intriguing of the teachings presented.
Book Of Quotes: This feature consists of subjective
or topical collections of thousands of quotes from the works, writings and teachings of J. J. Dewey. The quotes found in this feature
are not necessarily the same that are to be found in the searchable quotes
database described elsewhere; however, these quotes have already been selected as being representative of the teachings
presented here, and they have been topically
pre-arranged for ease of identification and access. Note: The sequential number assigned to
each quote also acts as a link that will take you directly to
the article from which the quote was taken. Additionally, words and phrases identified as being potentially new, foreign or
unknown to the reader have been "hypertext linked" to articles
where there are definitions or explanations of these potentially unfamiliar words and phrases.
Search Quotes Database: There is an
online quotes database containing thousands of quotes hand-picked from the articles found in "The Archives," as
well as from other publications and teachings by JJ Dewey. This feature allows you to topically search the quotes database
using key words and phrases. The search results present you with both a unique, stand-alone statement that has been selected
as being representative of a specific topic and teaching -- along with a link to, and a title of, the source of the
quote so you can read and study the potential meanings of the quote both in and out of the context in which it was given.
The Random Quote Feature: As you visit, peruse and read the articles found in "The Archives,"
you will notice a quote and an associated link appears at the bottom of the page--outside of the table on which the article is displayed.
These quotes appear on each archived
article page, as well as at the top of the Home Page. These quotes are automatically and randomly
selected from the quotes database mentioned above and placed on these pages in hopes that you
may be impressed to not only read them, but also impressed to click on the link and read the article from which
that particular quote was taken. Note: Whether you are at and/or on the Home Page, or on
a archived article page; if
you desire to read another random quote, all you need to do is to click on your browsers "Refresh" button,
and as the page "refreshes," you will be presented with a new quote.
Podcasts: For about eight years people from all over the world
who have read and enjoyed "The Immortal," and J J Dewey's other teachings
have gathered together on a yearly bases in various parts of the United States to listen to JJ Dewey teach and to experience a gathering
of "like minds."
In addition to these "gatherings" JJ has also conducted several classes in the local area, and fortunately, he took the time
to record the proceedings of
these "get togethers." The podcast feature is a collection of these audio recordings broken down into 10 minute segments.
Each segment is accompanied by a synopsis
of what the listener can expect to hear. The podcast version of "The Immortal" can also be found in this index as well.
What's New?: Be sure to visit this page now--and when
you visit again--as this is where all the changes ("new stuff") to the website are announced.
Extras:
And, while not part of the above described podcast feature, you can--through your MP3 Player--experience the creative side of JJ through
his music and lyrics.
If this is your first visit and you know nothing about JJ Dewey (nor have ever seen a picture of him before); nor
know nothing about "The Keys,"; nor what "The Archives" are--then you might enjoy visiting "About" page.
