-------------- WHY LODGES FAIL --------------
There should be no small wonder why
Foreign Travel, Masterful Work,
& Masterful Earnings
never occurs for their members!
And before you object, the Temple
IS NOT that Spiritual Building
and there can be no latter
without the former!

For Further Light:
-------------- THE DOOR --------------
The Door Shall Never Appear
Should You Never Do The Work!
Do the Work, See the Door!
Should You Never Do The Work!
Do the Work, See the Door!
-------------- MESSENGERS --------------
Ruffians
assassinate messengers
of unwanted messages.
-------------- DECIDE WISELY! --------------
"First thing to decide is,
are the Dues simply for
maintaining a building
maintaining a building
that you call a Lodge,
or are they for
maintaining a group of Brethren,
maintaining a group of Brethren,
called a Lodge."
-- Bro. Peter Taylor

-------------- CHARACTER --------------
The
Organization is Designed to Introduce men to what they can do to
Improve themselves. Once Initiated into that System, it is up to each
man to Step Up to Do the Work. If he so Desires the Improvement he
Professes, he Shall and Will do the Work.
If he is only giving lip
service to a Professed Ideal, you shall see no Work commenced. The Work
has been, is, and shall always be Self-directed and Self-initiated.
The Organization is there to assist in that effort, but not all men
within It can provide the assistance needed, especially to individuals
who make every Effort to go far beyond accepted and well-entrenched
norms.
Fortunately, when a man wants more, he shall find a way of
Obtaining it. When he doesn't want more, he shall get that too. The
Work shall always be there for those who want its Benefits.
-------------- MYTH --------------
or Easter, is crucifixion.
If
you want to resurrect,
you must have crucifixion.
Too many
interpretations of the Crucifixion
have failed to emphasize that.
They
emphasize the calamity of the event.
And if you emphasize calamity, then
you look for someone to blame. That is why people have blamed the Jews
for it.
"But it is not calamity if it leads to new life."
-- Joseph Campbell,
Thou Art That:
Transforming Religious Metaphor
-------------- PURPOSE --------------
When you find yourself up to your elbows in work and you want much much more, you've found your path and purpose.
"Ikigai
(生き甲斐, pronounced [ikiɡai]) is a Japanese concept meaning "a reason for
being". Everyone, according to the Japanese, has an ikigai. Finding it
requires a deep and often lengthy search of self."
-------------- THE RULES --------------
Going through a ceremonial play does not make you experienced in
anything
other than going through a ceremonial play.
Until you
experience what the play points you toward,
ignorance still rules.
-------------- WHAT HAVE YOU EMBRACED? --------------
Masonry Brings Understanding
More Than Ever as to
How Organizational
Dogma Enslaves
Souls Claiming Wanted Freedom.
How does Your Embraced
Dogma
Free or Enslave you?
-------------- HUMOR --------------
(Hat tip to Bro. Martin Bogardus!)
