-------------- FIRST MASON --------------
When you Desire to uncover
who the first Mason actually was,
you must clearly Define the following:
Craft, Masonry, Freemasonry.
Until you do,
you'll not Seek your answer
with Clear Eyes
or Solid Understanding!

-------------- HUMOR --------------
A Brother Asks: What
do you think is the biggest discrepancy Brothers notice between what
they expect from Freemasonry and what they actually experience?
Coach: The Biggest Discrepancy?
Brother: Yes!
Coach: Let me frame it as a metaphor...
Brother: Okay, and?
Coach: Members come to find out all too late that they are Expected to Learn How to Run the Gym, rather than Work Out in the Gym!
Brother: Yikes! That hits home, hard.
Coach: Thanks. I wish it didn't.

For Further Metaphor...
from the Sanscrit verbal root 'yuj,' '
to link, join, or unite,'
which is related etymologically to 'yoke,'
a yoke of oxen,
and is in sense analogous to the word 'religion'
(Latin 're-ligio'), 'to link back, or bind.'
Man, the creature, is by religion bound back to God.
However,
religion, 'religio,' refers to a linking historically conditioned
by way of a covenant, sacrament, or Quran,
whereas yoga is the psychological linking of the mind
to that superordinated principle
'by which the mind knows.'
Furthermore,
in yoga what is linked is finally the self to itself,
consciousness to consciousness;
for what had seemed, through māyā,
to be two are in reality not so;
whereas in religion what are linked are God and man,
which are not the same.”

and Treasure,
is the Dimly Lit Mirror
that you will Eventually Find within it
that Reflects Who You Truly Are.
Seek it!
-------------- SAD DAYS... --------------
It's a Sad Day when Brothers
Shoot down the Works of their Brothers
because of Ivory Tower Attitudes and Politics,
all in the Name of Academics focused upon
Conjectures of men long dead.
It is always a sad day
when Brothers must part company due to
intolerant, disrespectful and malicious exchanges.
To Dwell in Unity
requires an Honorable Intention
that some Brothers may never Manifest.
Seek those who Honor.
