Freemasonry > : Critical essay on the exoteric praxes of virtual Freemasonry
by (471 reads) |  I think it is time to admit that even the so-called ‘High initiations’ (31st, 32nd and 33rd, the three administrative Degrees of Freemasonry) as well as the previous ones are the approximate and quite folkloristic memory of ancient splendors. Their meanings remain obscure even to the ‘pontiffs’ of Freemasonry.

Question&Answer > : Bad Fellows and Bad Masons
by (353 reads) |  You write: ‘...the brother masons of a specific lodge that I prefer in the respect of your Masonic communions, perhaps different....’ and then: ‘...Freemasonry and its centenary sacred history...’
You have hit the nail on the head, as the saying goes, by raising the matter of the division of Masons; as I have written elsewhere, it has become ‘siblings rivalry’.
On this topic I am positive that the ‘high Masonic reasons’ that broke the unity of Italian Freemasonry (adding a new negative record to the history of our country) and the ‘high Masonic reasons’ that still today keep Its edges ‘well separated’, are the least sacred and most unworthy of a noble destiny.

Question&Answer > : The bluff of the inexistent initiation
by (432 reads) | …I am deeply convinced about my choice of joining Freemasonry; I respect the principles and values of Universal Freemasonry and therefore I also appreciate situations and behaviors that I find difficult to understand. I get stronger and I sight what I will be with time…Difficulties sublimate and fortify the spirit, giving me a vision that becomes clearer and clearer…Does my condition call for silence at the moment? …But sooner or later the day will come when I will be able to offer a humble contribution to what some Brothers are doing.

Question&Answer > : Utopias and Initiation
by (365 reads) | ...from the little I know, I understand that the ultimate purpose of Freemasonry is not so much the realization of Man (like in Christianity) followed by the realization of the Church as a spiritual community, but rather the contrary. It starts trying to build a real society (where a man can learn to realize himself together with other men). That is, Freemasonry is the real place where the mystic improvement of man is fulfilled. Therefore Freemasonry would be an immanent society that achieves a transcendent work (the Temple), which has its basis in a man that tries to improve himself by collaborating.

Esotericism_Reading > : Echoes of illusion
by (353 reads) |  I have always liked realistic, practical and operative esotericism, rather than the pompous and melodramatic lyricism of generic esotericism, which has the only purpose of emphasizing banal fragments of egocentrism.
Those who prefer ‘to dream’ rather than ‘to do’, are worried about erecting more and more oligarchic utopias. Also because talking is easy and doesn’t ‘cost’ much, on the contrary of ‘doing’ that costs everything, even life.

Esotericism_Reading > : Doubt, uncertainty and self-esteem. Different stages of the inner aspect
by (328 reads) | Uncertainty is the companion of insecurity; the doubt of the coward cannot be compared to the caution of the researcher. This difference offers us some basic principles. First, that doubt can be synonym of caution; second that doubt can also be a symptom of uncertainty and lack of self-esteem.

Esotericism_Reading > : Principles of popularization
by (263 reads) | We change gradually. This is very clear to those that work with dedication and perseverance in order to launch into space the silent sound, to which all the consciences close to reawakening respond.

Question&Answer > : Priest exorcist and magician
by (274 reads) | What is the difference between a priest exorcist and a magician? Some people say that they are the same thing for the purpose of the elimination of negativity...other people say that we need to go to the magician in cases of bad luck, whilst we need the priest in cases of paranormal phenomena (smell of rotten meat, unexplainable noises, presences, etc.)... Some magicians sustain the existence of spirits and demons; others also mention the negative energies of nature and macrocosm (which are not entities, but pure energies)...not to mention the Church, which says that magic is always an instrument of the devil...could you please answer these questions... I am keen on paranormal phenomena, but I am realizing that the more I try and enquiry on this subject the less I understand, because of the opposite opinions on the matter.
