 Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi / Book V by (560 reads) | The Inviolability of the Ceremonial Mystery – The Esoteric Symbology of the Candle – Ritual Fires – The Menorah – The Planets of the Menorah
Following our observations in the previous chapter, we should get used to consider, in all the aspects that make all Ceremonials in every Rite or belief, the presence of the apparent ambivalence of white and black, sacred and profane, as an effect of man’s manipulation on the elements that determine, through the desired goals, the pole of quality in its exterior manifestation.

The animal-man in his religions has in actual fact only loved or feared himself and his attributes.He tried to escape his own fears by serving a god, but, not being able to perceive the Archetype One, he made it to the likeness of his own desires and fears, creating a monster, viz. Satan.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi / Book III - 2nd part by (611 reads) | The Chain of Unification – Method for the construction of a Chain of Unification – The Chain of Unification, universal symbol and sign of science
The Chain of Unification cannot be but Universal; it is made of elements that are certainly not just the mere physical or ‘political’ presence of the Mason.
Accepting the assumption of the Universal reality of the Chain, we might consider the Communions that make it as its links, although they are often broken by profane and anti-initiatory interests of managers inadequate to their own duties and to recognize and gather the needs of the Order and of the Brothers that ‘constitute it’.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi / Book III - 1st part by (612 reads) | The Universality of the Masonic Temple – The Love Knot of the Masonic temple – The Love Knot, symbolic expression of the Energetic Knot.
Let’s take a first step in understanding the Universality of the Masonic Temple, in the past as well as in the present, as a Container of the Initiatory Tradition and then understanding the Universality of the ‘Universal Freemasonry’ towards a future of Illuminated Minds. In this chapter we will take the chance to highlight an ‘intermediate historical point’, that is not distant from the western present of the researcher but also not far away from its origins, which rise farther East and back in Time.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi: Book II - 2nd part by (805 reads) | The space that marks the Masonic Temple off is divided by three rectangular perimeters. The first of the three rectangles is symbolical and it is the Lodge Picture; the second, energetic, is emanated from the Squaring of the Temple created by the Brothers and re-absorbed at their Ritual exit. Finally, the third is represented by the physical form of the Temple.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi / Book II - 1st part by (693 reads) | The Labyrinth in the esoteric tradition – The squaring of the Temple
On the horizontal plane of ‘Chaos’ the Reason, deceived by its own senses, has to cross a Mental Plane that appears to it Real and Infinite, but that is in actual fact the result of its own deceit and delusion. This moment is known by Tradition as the Labyrinth; in the inner life of the Apprentice it marks the passage from his own Floor, of personal and separating understanding, to the Floor of the Temple, where, thanks to Systems and Guides, the paths become regular and understandable, true Paths of Initiatory Science.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi - Book I by (930 reads) | The Chamber of Reflection – The Fittings – The Room of lost steps – Astrological references in the Chamber of Reflection
This is the second of the six works that I consider necessary to propose in order for the Mason Brother to access the higher or Mystery Initiations, not only symbolically but also for the Light acquired through his knowledge and the ability to use the instruments hidden in the Tradition of the Order of the Temple.
