-------------- HUMOR --------------
About sums if all up...
-------------- CHARACTER --------------
"I count him braver
who overcomes his desires
than him who conquers his enemies;
for the hardest victory is over self."
-- Aristotle
-- Aristotle
-------------- WAIT! --------------
Wait! Where in the code does it say that Mastery takes Work?
-------------- LAURELS... --------------
There
is Nothing that will
Cripple the Craft Quicker
than Brothers Who
Rest
Upon the Laurels of Bestowed Titles
Never Mastering anything
other than
having Others do the Same.
-------------- MYTH --------------
"When I bought my computer––anyone who has tried to work a computer knows what my experience was––I thought, well, I wonder what god it is that is there? Being somewhat an expert on gods, I lived with this computer a couple of months, and then I recognized the god. It was Yahweh of the Old Testament: a lot of rules and no mercy! But then, when you get to know the rules and your fingers obey them, it is fabulous what the thing can do!
"That is the way it is with the rules in art. You have to learn to know them, and if it is a proper, up-to-date local art, the rules will have something to do with the life of people here and now, not a big smoochy general thing about life, but how it is here and now, what our problems and our mysteries are, here and now. You have to know your own day. You have to know your own relation to your own day, and then forget it! Let the thing build into you, the way my knowledge of my computer is built into me now. And then each of you can sing."
--Joseph Campbell, The Mythic Dimension: "Creativity"
-------------- SHOW ME! --------------
Freemasonry Showed me
The Shadows that Were Cast...
...and Masonry Showed me
...and Masonry Showed me
that Light Casts no Shadows...
-------------- ALLEGORY --------------
Allegory: Not Fact; Not Fiction.
Only Truth Served at the Raw Listener's Level.
You may be a Ruffian if...
...you ̶e̶x̶p̶e̶c̶t demand
...you ̶e̶x̶p̶e̶c̶t demand
more than you are willing to give.
-------------- MASONIC EDUCATION --------------
The Road to Mastery...
