 | 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. |

 | From knowledge to mental liberation, stage 8 |
|
|
| To accelerate events is a sign of inexperience; the inexperienced man plans to build the roof of his philosophic home before providing for steady foundations and solid walls. To know means to understand; it is therefore silly to think that we can penetrate the subtle dimension only with the help of reason. Since the mind lies to itself first of all, the first thing to do is to understand the dangers of illusion. |

The Essential Numbers of the Masonic Work and the minimal rules of their Archaic Symbolism – The evolution of the art of Numbers in the Western school – Two procedures to reveal the ‘secret of a Number’.
When changing the language used so far and creating a more essential ‘form’, we should find an agreement on the minimal value to give the concepts we will find in those new aspects of number, symbol and sound.

The Mysteries of the Masons /1
The author illustrates the link (bridge) between the invisible geometries of Cathedrals and the “Royal Secret” of the Master Masons. This is an “initiatory Secret” that once again backs up the spiritual identity of mankind. This essay focuses on the ideas of the Master Masons, architects and initiated who conceived the meaning of the shapes of the Temples, distinguishing them from the mythologies of their labourers. In this way they separated the initiatory essence of the Builders of the great stone products from the imaginary of the people who manually constructed them. |

 | Karma: cyclic expression of justice, balance |
|
|
| Some currents of thought sustain that man has only one life available to reach his final goal. Not all philosophies, though, agree. The oldest traditions consider the appearance of life as a cyclic experience of existence, whose material form is only the formal expression of a bigger and more articulated project; they regard it as involving not only itself but also the complex system called ‘universal creation’.
Every time it appears new chances for growth and improvements develop; they are gradually distributed in several cycles and existences to the fragment of individual conscience called "man".
