... 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.

| The Lost Sacralization – Part 6 |
|
|
| The keystone of every structure, even profane ones, is the ideal at the center of it; this ideal is usually resumed in a motto or in the synthesis of a word. Many imaginary thoughts took a utopian form. Some of them remained on a level of abstraction and became ideals; others materialized in a project.
Every human project is utopia to start with; the person who perceives it has to turn it into reality. Only inability, inconsistency or carelessness allow utopia to remain an ideal or unrealized form.

When a speculative graft, even pertinent to the Temple, was decided in an operative tradition, it was considered that because of its gravity and inertia the thought of certain men would attract the sense of the knowledge passed on to them towards the bottom. But at the same time it was certain that for the attraction towards the top of others, just for that knowledge, the Path that leads to the White Degrees of the Work would be ‘restored’. |

| Loneliness is the condition of the man who advances leaving himself (the leaden self) behind. He also separates from all those that can only recognize that minor metal. Therefore from a different point of view, loneliness can be seen as a privileged position, maybe heavy, but still an elitist one. When I say elected I don’t mean only the major Initiates, but also those who allow to be directed on Their own Path. Those who build subtle Cathedrals in order to represent in the world of Ideas the principles stated by the great Elected, they are Workers for the Great Work. A Work whose physical Temples are only the shadow in the matter.
