The Principle of identification and mental repolarization – The Mirror, one of Bacchus’ Toys – [The Bridge] – On the meaning of the Masonic Secret – The Secret in the sphere of the Initiate – The symbol of the Speculum in the Masonic Ceremonial – [Saturn ‘the Planet of Trials’]
The Mysteries are in actual fact the source of true ‘revelation’ and only when the mind and the will for good are intimately joined and affect the conscience, the extension of the future revelation is understood. Only then these secrets will be entrusted to the Humankind.

 | By recognizing you will be recognized |
|
|
| Q: It has been said that the rule ‘By recognizing you will be recognized’... ‘must be understood for what it is, not for what we would like to see in it’...and also that ‘in the initiatory field we never choose, but we are always chosen’. These two statements appear to be in contrast...is it possible to tear the veil and let a better understanding come through? |

 | Importance of the inductive method |
|
