Random Building Thoughts - 2022-10-11

 
-------------- BEWARE-------------- 
 
 
A Brother Asks: What is the Number One Thing Most Freemasons do that causes newer Masons to lose enthusiasm for and commitment to their Lodge?
 
Coach: They make every last educational moment an indoctrination that supports the Fraternity Machine rather than the Human Members.
 
Brother: Have you an example?
 
Coach: Yes, in allegorical form, too! Petitioners did not join the gym to run it. They joined to get good workouts that build them into better human beings.
 
 -------------- PASSIONS, DESIRES & MUSIC -------------- 
 
  

-------------- STAGES --------------  
 
 
The Stages are Simple...
 
EA: Preparing to Learn
FC: Learning How to Learn
MM: Learning & Teaching
 
At what Stage are you? 
Have you missed anything?

 -------------- INSPIRED -------------- 
 

Don't get Inspired by Great Men 
who become Freemasons. 
Get Inspired by Freemasons
who become Great Men.
 
-------------- REWARDS -------------- 
 
 
You don't Practice Masonry 
Thinking that it shall Reward you 
when you Leave this World. 
You do so because of how it Rewards everyone
 in this one when you do.

-------------- CHALLENGE --------------  
 

Perfection Options:
 
1) Flawless but Immature
2) Mature but Flawed
 
Which do you Believe 
is Humanly Possible?

For Further Light:
 
-------------- ENJOYED! --------------  
 
 
 
It's a More Enjoyed Life, 
when Brothers are your Friends 
and Friends are your Brothers. 
It's even more Enjoyed 
when you are the same to them.
 
 -------------- MATH! --------------  
 
 
GEEKS RULE!

i 8 sum pi 2!

 
-------------- HAPPY! -------------- 
 
  
No one Ever Claimed that Being Moral 
was Going to make you Happy. 
 It's a CHOICE to do the RIGHT thing, 
No Matter how you might feel about
 it in the moment.
 
-------------- HANGING? -------------- 
 
 
So, tell us... 
Are you Hanging 
with the Right Crowd?
 
-------------- THINK! --------------
 
 
 It is most Unfortunate 
that so many Teach What to Think
 rather than How to Think.
 
-------------- MYTH --------------   
 
 "Star Wars deals with the essential problem: 
Is the machine going to control humanity, 
or is the machine going to serve humanity?
 Darth Vader is a man taken over by a machine, 
he becomes a machine, 
and the state itself is a machine. 
There is no humanity in the state. 
What runs the world is economics and politics, 
and they have nothing to do with the spiritual life.
"So we are left with this void. 
It's the job of the artists to create the new myths. 
Myths come from the artists."
-- Joseph Campbell, 
interviewed by Chris Goodrich, 
Publisher's Weekly (1985)
 
-------------- WATCH --------------  
 

 
To Learn more about Others' true nature, 
Sometimes you need to sit back, 
shove popcorn in your mouth 
and watch the show.
 
-------------- SECRET -------------- 
    
 
The Biggest Secret Behind this Book 
is How it's Usually Read. 
Many read it with Eyes on the Craft Only. 
Some though read it with Eyes on Societies in General 
and have thus Realized a Whole New World View as a Result!
