 | Inconsistency of virtual initiations |

... 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.
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.

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. |

... I wonder if being an initiate represents the "sine qua non" condition... or isn't it enough to have a pure and simple love for knowledge, beyond any material interest.

|
|
| The ‘symbolic animals’ by definition are those that populate the zodiac, a word that comes from the Greek ‘zodiakos’, i.e. ‘zoon diakos’, ‘wheel or circle of animals’.
Since the dawn of time men who looked at the sky saw (or rather projected) mythological animals and events on the celestial constellations.

 | Esotericism and alimentary praxis |
|
|
| Esoterically the human being is made by mineral substance, animal substance, psychic substance and spiritual substance.
The nourishment that feeds the physical body contains characteristics and radiations of the birthplace that, once absorbed, stabilize in the cells and determine their organic-emotional characteristics.

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. |

| 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.

Introduction – Pax et Cultura
«Civilization is the first manifestation of the real human quality in the animal-man, the first influence of the part, or spark, of the Soul imprisoned into the bonds of personality. Culture is the second stage that shows a higher degree of development of personality, the cultural, esthetical values and the gradual development of mind. Illumination is the third stage. The mind starts being gradually illuminated by the influence of the Soul.» |
