 | 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. |

|
| …in an article appeared on the Masonic magazine Officinae (n. 4/11) titled ‘Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and the Theosophical Society’, the author sings the praises of the well known counter-initiatory association…don’t you agree with me in thinking that it goes a bit too far? M. |

| Distinguishing between virtual representation and reality |
|

Dear Athos, I must confess that I have often wondered where the Initiates were and are inside Freemasonry. I won’t deny that I feel like having a long sleep, but my ‘thirst’ is just as big, therefore, armed with patience, I continue my journey waiting to find the fountain where I could quench my thirst...I often wondered what real initiation was, I thought that before being initiated you must ‘Die’ and that the aspirant doesn’t ‘die’ only once. Perhaps the first ‘Death’ can be as heavy as a burden and as dark as the deepest night, then a tiny light breaks the darkness; the burden becomes as light as a feather and ‘Death’ is sweet and bright...
