 | 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.

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.

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. |

 | Freemasonry and Nazism |
|
|
| The difference between initiatory and Nazi-Fascist thought is unmistakable. The former aims at perfecting man, the latter exalts itself and its followers. Freemasonry has always claimed to be the ‘Field of Freedom’ of laic, democratic, tolerant and liberal thought. But its true richness is in the ancient symbols it involves. Biblical mysticism, hermeticism, esotericism and spiritual alchemy are all part of its lexicon. These are the elements that have been manipulated by the promoters of the super-race, as Pierluigi Tombetti’s work explains; we present his preface.

| Homo Religiosus (ESOTERICISM EPISTLES - I) |
|
|
| ...I don't have any more illusions about the relation between Freemasonry and initiation. I am absolutely positive that for contemporary man it is rather impossible to transcend anything (the oriental man as well as the occidental man). Furthermore the possibility of an ‘esotericism' or an ‘initiation', at least in Freemasonry, concerns a trite dualistic ontology of a Platonic kind, viz. the ‘essences' up there and the ‘imperfect copies' down here, which contemporary thought has overcome a long time ago.... |

The Sovereign Great General Inspectors, XXXIII and last degree of the A. A. S. R. – The Bilateral Alphabet from De Augmentis Scientiarum by Lord F. Bacon – The code book of the Kabbalah, plus a relevant aspect – The Saint Names of God and His Holy Graces – The secret Science of the Tannaim.
At the highest degree of White Masonry, the Initiatory Tradition still holds intact its Mysteries, jealously preserved by its Greater Adepts, which pass them on uniquely with the ‘mouth-ear’ method to those who, once reached that level, are able to make themselves known by demonstrating the possession of the Keys of Rule and Art; otherwise they will be invisible to the minds of the Lesser Adepts.

 | Derrida and the essence of the ''female-truth'' |
|
|
| On the contrary of other French philosophers, Jacques Derrida was influenced more by Heidegger than by Nietzsche. Derrida laid the bases for his deconstructionist analysis on the rocky Heideggerian meditations, re-interpreting the ontological referent of the German philosopher’s thought: the being. |
