-------------- HONOR IT! --------------
That Holy Book,
there upon the Altar,
was put there to Support the Candidate in His Quest;
You had your Turn,
Honor His!
-------------- BOOK OF LAW --------------
The
“Book of Law” is not just any book of Faith
that Brothers choose to
place their hand upon and abide by.
It alludes to One that is much
deeper and bigger than this
and One that is contractual amongst Brothers
and,
when honored or violated,
provides grounds for admission into
or dismissal
from
Craft ranks, respectively.
This Book fundamentally provides that moral code
to which all Brothers will and shall agree without waiver.
You shall not
find this Book written in any place
other than the hearts of Brothers
who are aware of and who Properly Practice this Code.
-------------- PRINCIPLES --------------
Attraction Principle: Like Attracts Like!
To Attract Good Men to Freemasonry
Masonic Practice Must Be Attractive.
Question: Is Your Practice Attractive?
What are YOU Attracting?
-------------- CHARACTER --------------
"Your virtue, honour and reputation
are concerned in supporting with dignity
the Character you now bear."
-- The Freemason's Monitor (page 72)
by Thomas Smith Webb
Are you quite a Character yet
or are you still trying to Play your part?
are concerned in supporting with dignity
the Character you now bear."
-- The Freemason's Monitor (page 72)
by Thomas Smith Webb
Are you quite a Character yet
or are you still trying to Play your part?
-------------- MYTH --------------
"The
images of myth
are reflections of the spiritual potentialities
of every
one of us.
Through contemplating these
we evoke their powers
in our own
lives.”
-- Joseph Campbell
(with Bill Moyers),
The Power of Myth, p.207
What Mythic Images
do you Reflect?
-------------- SUPPORT --------------
Look
around and within the Organization
and you shall see predominantly
experts in Freemasonic preservation
and those who support this end.
How
many Brothers and Fellows do you see
who are experts in deliberately
and consistently supporting
- the Bettering of men,
- who are actively engaged therein
- and who are overwhelming supported
by others in this
end?
-------------- SECRET SOCIETY --------------
A Brother Asks: Are we members of a secret society?
Coach: You bet we are!
Coach: You bet we are!
Brother:
But how could this be? We are not unknown. Anyone can look our
organization up in multiple ways and find us. Our buildings are clearly
marked and identifiable. How could we be considered part of a secret
society if our society, our meeting places and our meeting times are
known and able to be pointed out or found out readily?
Coach: That's because most people have no clue what "secret society" actually means. This includes many members of our organization!
... (Continued) ...
For Further Light:
Secret Society ...
