 | Inconsistency of virtual initiations |
|
|
... what I think, but that is my opinion, is that a true initiatory organization should never refuse the initiation to those who prove to be spiritually suitable to receive it only because they cannot afford the enrolment and a monthly fee that is beyond their possibilities. Not all initiatory organizations are the same. Fortunately there are some, in my experience, which are within everyone’s reach, rich and poor.

| The Journey through the Great Work /3.2 |
|
|
Ars Muratoria describes in detail the ‘geometry’ of a method and its instruments. These instruments hide the virtues of the Initiate’s Psyche in the allegory.
On the contrary of what we think, it is necessary to refuse and disown the exoteric isolation of the High ritual Chambers and to understand the invisible connections of the initiatory activities through which Esoteric Philosophy joins in the Scottish Pyramid the commitment of initiates of different levels and abilities.

| The Journey through the Great Work /3.1 |

|
Ars Muratoria describes in detail the ‘geometry’ of a method and its instruments. These instruments hide the virtues of the Initiate’s Psyche in the allegory.
When in the evolution of the Human Kingdom the air element of the thought got in contact with the fire element of the spirit, an aqueous and voluble element appeared in the lower levels of the mind; it still accompanies Personality up to its complete individualization. |

| Anamnesis of the inner reawakening |
|
|
... I wonder if being an initiate represents the "sine qua non" condition... or isn't it enough to have a pure and simple love for knowledge, beyond any material interest.

 | Orgonomy and protective techniques |
|
|
| I would say that this topic is the keystone of the whole initiatory system.
If we strip it of the dialectic frills that characterize mysticism, we might compare it to hygiene, which is the essential support for medicine. And this is a true statement, like it is true that orgonomy supports the mental hygiene of the initiate.

 | Face and Mask: tale of a double beheading |
|
|
| Mask and Face meet like hostile enemies in a pressing dialogue. The result is a contrast between the search for unity and Truth and the manifold conflicting needs in our hearts. We talk about the function of Tragedy and Mysteries in the ancient world, the Dionysian enthousiasmos opposed to the ‘enthusiasm’ of the masses manipulated by the media. A double beheading is necessary in order to gain the ‘intelligence of the heart’… |

| Pompeii |
|
|
| In Pompeii, in the Architects' House, there is a particular mosaic, the photography of which is often shown in Masonic texts. It was the emblem in the floor of the Triclinium and man thinks that the naturalistic representation of the skull and of the mason's tools is an allegoric reference to the lapsing of the human life and the looming death. In my opinion, however, the tile conceals a deeper mean-ing. I strove to find it and I want, therefore, to share with you my thoughts. |

| New Esonet Project |
|
|
| The Esonet Project originated from the idea of a Tree of small knowledge able to lead esotericism back to the condition of intellectualism necessary to bring back the principles of initiatory science.We knew the symbolic meaning of the Tree of Knowledge and the Tree of Life. The former was the metaphor of intellectual development, whilst the latter represented inner research. |

| Imago Templi /6.2 |
|
|
| We talked about Threshold of Initiation rather than Door; let’s try and understand why. In the Initiatory Schools it is taught that there isn’t a Door (obstacle) to Initiation; the only Door (obstacle) for the man who starts this journey is himself. |
