Random Building Thoughts - 2024-04-22

 

  

-------------- HUMOR --------------  
 

-------------- MASONIC EDUCATION --------------  
 
 
-------------- SELF-HELP --------------  
 
FILED UNDER: What come we here to do
 
Freemasonry offers to candidates three maps 
that can help every one of them become a Better Man. 
 
It is ENTIRELY up to them though to learn 
how to read and follow these maps. 
 
Freemasonry rightfully assumes that each 
is mature enough to do just this. 
 
When they are not mature enough, 
they shall find the organization fundamentally unfulfilling. 
 
Freemasonry is the ultimate "Self-Help" organization, 
as in, each Candidate must HELP THEMSELVES because, 
when things are working correctly, 
no one within the organization is gonna do it for them! 
 
 
-------------- SHADOWS... --------------  
 

Some of those shadows are man-made...
 
-------------- CHARACTER --------------  
 
Don't fool yourself into thinking that Masonic Travel is physical! Masonic Travel is the Journey men must make toward Mastery. Memorization is but the first step toward becoming Better Men. Memorization is only the internalization of Ritual Maps. This effort only allows for immediate access to important information during Travels. Those Brothers who earnestly and sincerely make every effort to Recognize, Understand and Follow the Three Ritual Maps provided to them by Blue Lodge Ritual are already Better men for making such effort. 
 
When they Travel well, they eventually become Masterfully Better! 
 
It is unbelievably sad that so many men stop at the first step.
  
-------------- MYTH --------------   

  This is an absolute necessity for anybody today: 
you must have a room, or a certain hour or so a day, 
where you don’t know 
what was in the newspapers this morning, 
you don’t know who your friends are, 
you don’t know what you owe anybody, 
you don’t know what anybody owes you.
This is a place where you can simply experience 
and bring forth what you are and what you might be. 
This is the place of creative incubation.
 At first you might find that nothing happens there. 
But if you have a sacred place and use it, 
something eventually will happen.
 
-------------- EXPECTANCIES --------------  
 

Don't expect any organization to improve you. 
Be seriously suspicious of any man 
who would hold such expectations. 
Improvement is for you to do on your own, 
with God's help. 
That help has an uncanny way of coming 
by way of your Brothers 
who are earnestly working to improve 
their Ashlars as well.
 
-------------- MASTERY --------------  
 

 
-------------- BETTERMENT --------------  
 
 
Betterment Requires Consistent Results That Are Better Than Before
 
-------------- DO THE MATH... -------------- 
 
 
If Cowans are Masons without the Master's Word, 
And Blue Lodge Master Masons are Provided only a Substitute, 
Then what does that Make These Master Masons?
 
For Further Light:
 
-------------- EVIDENCE... --------------   
 

 I: Have you ever encountered a real goat at the lodge?
R: No. But I have seen overwhelming evidence of bull.
 
 -------------- EE HA!! --------------  
 

Don't let others get your goat!

-------------- GUTS! --------------
 

Healthy livestock naturally migrate
 away from barren lands 
and toward pastures that nourish them. 
They need no leader to do this. 
The direction provided by their guts 
tells them all they need to know.
 
-------------- SUPPORT -------------- 


Please Support Your Masonic Authors. 
Without your Support, 
the Work they do cannot continue. 
Yes, I am a Masonic Author!
 
-------------- END -------------- 

 Be Well and Travel Light!
