I am a 32nd degree MASON & a Knight Templar - Ask me a question

OP is whitewashing Freemasonry. It takes YEARS to achieve 32-degree, so he didn't join recently "to see what it was about," and it costs WAY more than $200 year at that level...

See the thing is that we are on a journey of evolution, your spirit that is, and the body to I guess but the body is just the vehicle.

There MUST be two opposing forces which creates the friction necessary to foster evolution. The key is balance between the two. You will find that balance is a VERY important theme in masonic literature and it relates to this very concept.

Jungian psychology which is pretty much alchemy with new labels does a good job of describing how this process works within the human soul I think.

I'm a 32nd degree mason and I can guarantee you it does not take years anymore, nor does it cost hundreds of dollars a year.

It has always been possible to raise "Mason at Sight"...
Anyway... Read my posts and reply about the things which cannot be completely told.

I read back through most of this post and I'm still unsure as to what it is you want to know.

There is no "secret." The only secrets we have are handshakes, recognition signs, etc. You want enlightenment? My suggestion would be to read the bible. The three degrees are representative of maturation through life stages.

I want to be more enlighted than I already am.

It's not about what you think it's about. It's not even about what many other Freemasons think it's about.

closed club = something to hide?
closed club = easy to oppress non members
closed club = same as any other secret organization

No game playing here. I am building the mass intention website as promised and for the reasons I stated.

The fact that I am a Freemason should have no bearing on that whatsoever. It is only the misconception in your mind about what you think it means for someone to be a Freemason.

The 33rd degree is an honorary rite usually given to those who spend a lot of time at the lodge and participate. I most likely will never make 33rd degree as I am a lone wolf by nature and do not attend lodge very often, maybe once or twice a year, just so I don't feel too much like a "paper mason".

The truth of the matter is that I joined Freemasonry to find out once and for all what is was about after having read so many different theories about it. What I found was nothing nefarious in the least bit. Contrast this to the time I was asked to join a local Chapter of the Golden Dawn and I bugged out in mid ritual while I was in the antechamber waiting to get initiated - I suddenly felt a very real sense that linking into this group was a VERY bad idea, so I walked out without saying a word to anyone.

At any rate. The modern Masonic lodge is unfortunately nothing more than a social guild. It is based however on the traditional western lodge magickal society. They do practice magick in the lodge. The funny thing is that 98% of the guys doing it do not know that is what they are doing. They are simply going through the motions without understanding the significance of the symbols and energies behind those symbols being worked. I was very disappointed to find this out hence my reluctance to spend much time up at the lodge.

I have learned more about magickal practice on my own than I ever have from Freemasonry.

The knights want a Papal apology nearly 700 years after they were disbanded and hounded into exile

“The Knights Templar officially ceased to exist in the early 1300s, but the order continued underground. It was a huge organisation and the vast majority of Templars survived the persecution, including most of their leaders, along with much of their treasure and, most importantly, their original values and traditions.”

Any Mason that would openly say anything about anything they know about Freemasonry is a sorry excuse for a man or either lying... something's shouldn't be mentioned...if you want to know join if not stay in the dark on the subject...

Paying money is a part of most any large enterprise. Bills have to be paid by some means. The amounts are not that outrageous. Something like $200 a year?

There is no hoarding of knowledge. Most of the knowledge is public information these days anyway. It is the use of that knowledge that is where the meat is.

Most anyone can join a lodge. The requirements are not that stringent. I was surprised when I got in as a 20 something year old fuck-up.

The secrecy component is not so much about keeping things hidden it is more about charging the knowledge contained within the structure of the secrecy.

Finally something being said I can comment on, if your a Mason then keep your mouth shut, what you learn in the lodge should stay in the lodge.

Is it true that Freemasons are actually serving God or The Light, and working for the greater good of mankind?

Also, have Freemasons been helping me in my life?

As I stated before, the experience itself is a "secret", it cannot be described, it has to be experienced. This is done in the lodge - please tell how I can experience it now.
