Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi /5.6 by (4381 reads) | The Sacred Geometry of the Ritual Fires, from the Great Master to the three Pillars of the Temple – the Ritual Stars of Great Mastery – The Geometry of Ritual Fires in the Masonic Lodge.
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’.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi /5.5 by (2929 reads) | This reading method is useful for the Eastern thought as well as for the Western one. Beyond their forms of expression and languages, certainly very different, what the Initiates intended to pass on to those peoples using those languages was identical in their purposes and substance.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi/ Book 5 - IV part by (3479 reads) | The qualities of the Logoi in the Menorah (Part 2) – The Four Keys for the interpretation of the Humankind / Method – The Four Castes in the Esoteric System and the Initiatory Rule
Continuing in our journey we find the qualities of the Planets and how they manifest themselves.
The first manifestation, from the point of view of the individual – which is an inverted version of the real aspect – is made of the Aspects that manifest themselves more visibly in man and that he can recognize around himself. Indeed, man is the unconscious cause of many effects in the five Kingdoms of Nature that surround him.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi/ Book 5 - III part by (3830 reads) | The qualities of the Logoi in the Menorah (Part 1) – ‘In the Form of the Symbol the Truth is revealed’ – The Monochord and the Harmony of the Spheres of the Pythagorean School.
The mind of man is not allowed to understand much of the (spiritual) qualities of the Seven Lives that rule the Solar System, represented in this great Luminary of the Temple. The reason is also that, as we have said before, every symbolism in the Temple is revealed by its exterior form, in the sense that it hides it twice.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi/ Book 5 - II part by (3944 reads) | In the Archaic and sacerdotal Traditions, the Children of Light are identified with Saturn, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, Venus, the Sun and the Moon.
Pythagoras taught his Disciples that: ‘The Forces are spiritual Entities, Gods that rule the sidereal sky, independently from how the Planets and the Matter are known and intended on Earth...’

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi / Book V by (4446 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.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi / Book IV - 2nd part by (3754 reads) | Fragrance and man, from Natural to Sexual Magic – Ritual Fragrances – Fumigations in the Temple – Fumigations in the Masonic Temple
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.

During his journey the researcher encounters topics that suit particularly well the re-discovery of the esoteric history of the humankind. They allow him to follow the thought process of the man who built them by going back on the path of his history.

Freemasonry > Imago_Templi: Imago Templi / Book III - 2nd part by (3766 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 (4317 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.
