 | 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. |

| : «B. Spinoza considered the idea in itself, without any relation to the person perceiving it, who should renounce any criterion of idealistic embellishment.»
Knowledge doesn’t know compromises; therefore the principles of emotion and devotion don’t belong to it. On the other hand, to know doesn’t mean exasperated rationality either, which makes man unable to perceive what animates (moving it) every living phenomenon.

| Echoes of illusion |
|
|
| I have always liked realistic, practical and operative esotericism, rather than the pompous and melodramatic lyricism of generic esotericism, which has the only purpose of emphasizing banal fragments of egocentrism.
Those who prefer ‘to dream’ rather than ‘to do’, are worried about erecting more and more oligarchic utopias. Also because talking is easy and doesn’t ‘cost’ much, on the contrary of ‘doing’ that costs everything, even life.

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. |

The (lesser) Mysteries of modern Freemasonry are the exoteric manifestation of ancient mysteriosophical Schools that, in the East and then in the West, have descended amongst men to bring the sense of their initiatory ideas.
These ideas are in today’s Freemasonry less imperfect than those of their Adepts, which indeed pursue with tenacious imperfection their own inner perfection through Freemasonry.
Before seeking Ritual and initiatory perfection, it is necessary to face honestly and courageously a theme that appears laic and profane, where it is expressed perhaps one of the main imperfections of the present initiatory system. We must raise the ambiguity of the alleged universality that is in fact only partially true. |

| Eminent scholars...between deduced experience and real knowledge |

| I wonder how come the eminent scholars of the matter don’t intervene. Perhaps because they need an audience and if that’s not there they prefer to keep quiet? Once I was told that you need to give before receiving... What would prevent the creation of a list where we are called by invitation? What do you think? |
