The problem is that _anybody_ who tries Enochian magick is going to
end up "injecting a lot of his own stuff" into it. The original
material is extremely skeletal, and needs to be fleshed out by the
user in order to be made into a useable magickal system. Anyone who
claims to be doing the "original" Enochian magick is either
bullshitting you, or bullshitting himself.

Zalewski's book consists of the injections and elaborations created by
various Golden Dawn members over the years. It isn't the only system
that can be devised on their assumptions, nor even the best.
