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. |

The Number Nine, perfection
The primitive Yod is supported by nine pillars. These nine pillars are placed in the nine directions of the world. They are placed in right lines, Three in each direction and one in the center. These three points placed as a square make nine, which are in actual fact eight. They are the thrones of the sacred Yod.

 | The “Bread of Knowledge” |
|
|
| In an initiatory Center, which is considered the purest expression of an archaic eastern tradition, it is taught that in order to “explore” the highest levels of knowledge, it is necessary to learn how to feed on the “Bread of Knowledge”. The Disciples that have focused their goals (inner motives) realize a first re-joining between mind and «will for action». They recognize in this “boost” the chance to access the Center of the initiation. The first offer they receive is to guide and support the disciple in a process of energetic and emotional cleanliness. |

| Uniformity as an initiatory instrument |
|
|
| Man’s behaviour is the exterior expression of his inner status. In the initiate, this status is the antithesis of the conformism lacking in critical sense, which is typical of the profane culture.... |
