-------------- REALITY --------------
1. Truth:
There exist infinite interpretations.
2. Valid Assumption:
All interpretations are valid
when no premises are expressed as their foundations.
3. Caveat to Truth:
There exist finite optimal interpretations
that actually do apply that are inline
with what was originally intended.
that actually do apply that are inline
with what was originally intended.
4. Challenge:
Filtering out the Bogus Specifics
ie. like stopping at "1." believing it is THE truth
and a truth that trumps all others.
5. Problem:
Assuming one of the interpretations
is either right
or the only right interpretation 6. Trouble:
When 4 is settled upon & supported.
-------------- RECOGNITION --------------
"Watching Bro. John S Nagy's videos,
The Coaches Coach: Building Builders,
learning, taking notes, being inspired,
and most of all learning
I still have so much more to learn."

-------------- APPRECIATION --------------
FILED UNDER:
PROBLEM FOUND!
PROBLEM FOUND!
Without a foundation in
classical
literature, scripture and related materials,
there is little likelihood
of any man
truly appreciating anything
other than the superficial
aspects
of what the Society offers him.
What’s more,
when they don’t
appreciate what is offered,
they do not stick around much longer
than is
absolutely necessary.
[TCU, Page 97]
For Further Light:
-------------- NO SUBSTITUTES! --------------
FILED UNDER: THE MAP IS NOT THE TERRITORY!
"Idolatry
consists in confusing the symbol with the thing signified, the
substitution of a material for a mental object of worship, after a
higher spiritualism has become possible; an ill-judged preference of the
inferior to the superior symbol, an inadequate & sensual conception
of the Deity: & every religion & every conception of God is
idolatrous, in so far as it is imperfect, & as it substitutes a
feeble & temporary idea in the shrine of that Undiscoverable Being
who can be known only in part, & who can therefore be honored, even
by the most enlightened among His worshippers, only in proportion to
their limited powers of understanding & imagining to themselves His
perfections."
-- Brother A. Pike; M&D pg 516
For More Light!
Betterment!
Betterment!
Foundational Resources have never been a Problem.
And "Yes", I'm Building As Fast As I Can!
It's a Sad Reality
that the Hearts and Minds of Some Brothers
Become More Closed by Their Freemasonic Training
Than Opened.
The Book upon the Altar
Represents no less than
the Sacred Text Etched
within your Heart.
Exercise any Behavior
that Conflicts with what you
Profess
is within these Writings
and your Library is surely Empty.
-------------- TRAVEL! --------------
It's Insane to Believe
Properly Trained Fliers
will Remain Grounded.
The Same Applies
to Properly Trained Travelers.
-------------- WINNING REFLECTIONS --------------
As
much as I enjoyed playing chess as a child,
I lost all interest in it
once I realized the goal was
to win at the expense of another.
That
insight allowed me to take focus off
playing for that purpose in that
game and others as well.
Winning was redefined as gaining "improvement"
and, since that moment, I sought games
where all could win
and do so in
increasing amounts,
should all cooperate.
-------------- TRUE MASTERY --------------
-------------- END --------------
Be Well and Travel Light!
