| Inconsistency of virtual initiations |
|
|
... what I think, but that is my opinion, is that a true initiatory organization should never refuse the initiation to those who prove to be spiritually suitable to receive it only because they cannot afford the enrolment and a monthly fee that is beyond their possibilities. Not all initiatory organizations are the same. Fortunately there are some, in my experience, which are within everyone’s reach, rich and poor.

Ars Muratoria describes in detail the ‘geometry’ of a method and its instruments. These instruments hide the virtues of the Initiate’s Psyche in the allegory.
On the contrary of what we think, it is necessary to refuse and disown the exoteric isolation of the High ritual Chambers and to understand the invisible connections of the initiatory activities through which Esoteric Philosophy joins in the Scottish Pyramid the commitment of initiates of different levels and abilities.

When in the evolution of the Human Kingdom the air element of the thought got in contact with the fire element of the spirit, an aqueous and voluble element appeared in the lower levels of the mind; it still accompanies Personality up to its complete individualization. |

| Comments on the Pyramidal Hierarchy |
|
|
The subject of this work is the analysis of the pyramid symbol, which, in its apparent simplicity, is the synthesis of a wider concept linked to the idea of hierarchic order. An idea, or the symbol that represents it, is generally ‘personalized' through opinions and interpretations given by those who have lost the objective meaning of the idea itself.

| Relationship between Catholicism and Freemasonry |
|
|
I would like to know what the relationship between the Catholic Church and Freemasonry is today. Do you think that it is possible to be practicing Catholics and Masons at the same time? I asked this question to a priest and he answered: ‘It’s best to let it go… '. |

| Esoterical meaning of the Three Classes of Learning |
|
|
It is a very delicate task to add notions to the ideas of a Master; I feel quite clearly the “karmic responsibility” of stating something in the name of the living Teaching. In order to “study” the subjects linked with the (real) Initiation, though, it is necessary “to add” new details all the time, but made up with ideas and not opinions. |

| Initiatory morale or apostasy – Part 1 |
|
|
The exoterical form of Freemasonry is a container of ancient symbols and ritual and allegorical languages. It is an envelope that in its modern disposition has been strongly marked by a biblical Hebraism; this has transmitted in this area as well its whole misogyny. |

| Men and Women in Freemasonry |
|
|
… I think that Freemasonry as we know it and practice it today, organized in lodges and communions, it’s a product of the English eighteenth century, valid for the time and social classes that practiced it. Is the same structure valid for the twenty-first century man? ...I don’t consider a female Freemasonry impossible, although I don’t think that our rituals are suitable for a female group and should probably be ‘revisited’,…I think that certain symbols and instruments are more appropriate for men than women, but perhaps this opinion can be a prejudice resulting from thirty years of activity in a male Freemasonry. Nevertheless I am quite perplexed about a mixed Freemasonry.... |
