 | 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.

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. |

|
|
... 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.

 | The Bible on the Masonic Altar and the Menorah on the Altar |
|
|
The Masonic oath is a psycho-dramatic representation aimed at ‘impressing’ the neophyte’s mind. But there is nothing religious about this oath. The presence of the Bible is purely symbolical. Furthermore, it is wrong to consider it as a Catholic book. |

 | Discovering oneself through symbols |
|
|
The difference between the esotericist and the collector of enigmatic quotations is that the latter can actually understand the use of this matter. No matter if it’s a methaphor, a symbol, an alchemical formula, a geometrical form, a number, a sound or a colour, the esotericist learns its meaning but also its use.....

 | Esoterical meaning of the Three Classes of Learning |
|
|
It is a very delicate task to add notions to the ideas of a Master; I feel quite clearly the “karmic responsibility” of stating something in the name of the living Teaching. In order to “study” the subjects linked with the (real) Initiation, though, it is necessary “to add” new details all the time, but made up with ideas and not opinions. |

 | The Grail of the Alchemist and the speculative Worker |
|
|
The spiritual Alchemist and the speculative Worker have a postulate in common. The former calls it: ‘the transmutation of metals’ (to purify one’s character); the latter calls it: ‘the smoothing of the stone’ (to sublimate one’s character). This means to use different ‘instruments’ in order to reach the same goal. |
