encompasses communities (many are called but few are chosen) and symbols living of this Center are more than limited. The polarities are back, and this time no longer queues as before, but the two-headed snakes (the head's intelligence).

Page 99 CONCLUSION
We arrived here at the end of this work. We do not believe there many Masons who know the varied and inordenados topics
Here we have addressed, and which are but the ABC of Freemasonry. Some will say, and rightly, that apart from the explanations of Use subsequent to its advance in degrees, or other allusions
metaphorical and empty that they have made in their workshops, have never been treated the same subject in the lodge.
Here is precisely the expected answer type in 99% of
cases. And it is precisely against this state of things that rebels our consciousness.
It seems that fate has bitter against our unfortunate
Order, and not content with seeing his spirit warped by pride and ambition has led her to submerge in irony and ignorance
nonsense, in the sterility of "White Nights"!
It is necessary to restore the universal Freemasonry their
dimensional primitive virtues and powers. It is imperative to re-establish Magic Word and the deeply spiritual nature of the
Esoteric initiation as the primary basis and as the splendor of the s emancipated soul.
It is unacceptable that a Freemason, worthy of this title, is deliver their services, and let chain alcohol and the
snuff. It is unfortunate that a Mason eat meat, so their atrophying intellectual faculties, and spiritual, and thereby animalice. This is intolerable that a Mason Initiatory flying their prerogatives to serve their economic or political interests. It is scandalous that the Most of our initiatory banquet ending in orgies
abject, thus calling into question the condition required the recipient: "Healthy body, healthy mind"
53
. But it is, above all, 53
it is known that physical defects, the defects, mental imbalance, the powers Incomplete preclude the possibility of an Initiation that requires perfect balance, in order that the recipient is opened to all the fumes, and Similarly, we know that the neophyte must be a chalice to receive this transmission of power, which he applied to the Master for the disclosure of initiatory knowledge.
It has often been discussed on the subject of banquets. Indeed it is a rite practiced by the ancients, but which has lost its true
value.
For example, among the Essenes, the novice-candidate remains in the fasting state for several days prior to initiation, and once recently promoted, had the
- 110
Page 100 unacceptable to have lost a precious time in explaining
circumlocutions to exhaustion of a ritual that is not understood, and a children's symbolism.
The occult sciences in all they cover, they should present no real mystery to Mason. It is also
unacceptable that in our lodges ignore astrology, yoga, magnetism, magic, alchemy, archaeometry, and all other branches of sacred science, exclusive to Saints
Saramas of sacred science, exclusive to Saints Shrines since antiquity.
It is urgent that a regenerating and quickening wind will blow between our columns, and come to sweep the dust of our head and
back precursor powder is a sign of our mummification. It would be interesting to dwell a bit on the ideas
fundamental kabbalistic, which define how well the approach problems, but this is beyond the scope of this small
exposure, especially since we are nearing the end.
However, we should mention a small example of philosophy synthetic. In the Holy Kabbalah, the Truth is called the
EMETH Hebrew word composed of the first and the last letter alphabet (Aleph and Tau), gathered together by the "average" letter (Mem).
Truth can not be but only ONE, the intricacies
are numerous. We would like to make these appointments because we want to show it belongs to the category of
francmasónica instruction.
Compass, whose two legs are joined at the top, is a
magnificent symbol of creation, and expresses the first attributes G:. A:. D:. U:., At the time when speaking of the beginning of the creation (Genesis. chapter I, verse 3) it says: "Let there be light please ... "and we could realize that the biblical quote mentions
of: "HE SAID ..." Then, we have the right to ask: A God who speaks? The Who said this, because after all, the Divinity could not express, as yet nothing had
created. This is where it becomes necessary to perceive the movement of the Cabbalistas, because they have said it is Elohim who "does"
all this and speak to their direct attributes (the supreme splendor): right to come and sit at the table, which was served in a banquet his honor. (Grape juice fermented completely vegetarian foods, is was abundant food, but healthy and natural).
The ancients make the offering and apply the great parable: "Lunch in the same table "...

Page 101 Sefiros intellectuals are the Jehovah of the right and the Lord of
left. To LIGHT (as for everything else)
is necessary to bring the two polarities. Indeed, to transform ONE two must bridge the gap between the two, with a third touch one to the other ... Likewise and further clarifies the mystery with compass, here symbolizes the mem. Then circle plotted the instrument, is a perfect symbol of
created universe: the manifest world. (We know that the Absolute symbolized by just a point).
Thus, two lines start from the same point as for a
triangle, diverge until a third will join them (Elohim is with the two aspects of Jehovah)
Would be too long to analyze in this way the line, circle, triangle, ellipse, parabola, like all other curves

Perfect G emblem. A:. D:. U:. * * * - 112 Page 102 Another issue that must be addressed is certainly that of
Great examples inherited from our grandparents, but by do it in this case to go back to antiquity. Those
examples serve not only for but for all Masonic Initiation branches of activities in decline today. Thus
we know that EL ARTIFEX of the ancients was not only the man who exercised an art or a craft, but also that art or
that profession which itself represented something else, because everything it rested on real principles. Its activities, which depended
Always deep principles, only transformed
following a certain direction, rather than being reduced to a occupation so material, as in our days.
The most ordinary acts of life always are of a character religious, taking this statement in a correct meaning is say, in the true and natural sense, ie with the idea of
mission accomplished, and we must understand, as domain consciousness that operates acts as a mechanical rather than unconscious ...
Hence in the Hindu doctrine, we find a word we better understand this notion does work correctly deployed, as the term is swadharma compliance each being of an activity under its own
nature. It is precisely their lack denoting the failure of secular conception.
Fellowship or brotherhood of craftsmen officials, is beside edifying on this topic, because it is not just a fraternity corporate, not a vulgar working group, but rather those two aspects with even much higher idea, as
corresponds exactly to what is related to EL ARTIFEX. Antique artisan guild officers lost in the
mists of time. Generally said that dates back to the time construction of Solomon's temple. Indeed, the
files teach us certain facts as ceremonies, various scenes, characters, listed as a witness. To
cleavage time, this was the usual Mosaic Initiation, and which very few corporations of artisans have preserved. Hence
arise monasteries, halls of science and the arts.
We found a San Benito and San Bonifacio, who built a class especially monks who occupied the work of art.
In the eleventh and twelfth centuries the art was dislodged, and fell from the monks the laity, but the example of his predecessors helped the

Geometric and which communicated only to initiates. The life they should be religious, quiet, honest, exemplary ... After a long time, these craftsmen were still in possession of Royal Initiation and this character is easy to find, just in the fact of the two major festivals celebrated on the solstices (San Juan, San Juan and summer, winter). These two phases of
zodiac cycle were designated in this way, after
Christianity, but actually originated in Janus (name of
which comes the name of the month January - enero, january-, and has placed as the beginning of the year). Not dwell in Janus
with its two faces, which apparently a look at the past and the other the future.
The Brotherhood could not disappear, despite the French Law of 2 May 1791, which abolished the "jurandes" the maestrazgos and all privileges of the old regime, and made also disappears
official corporation, instead of reforming their abuses. The Act 14 June 1791, passed by the Constituent Assembly, barely reached lay confraternities dormant during the reign of the clubs
Jacobins who distrusted anything that had a
idea of independence. The decline was felt only in the late nineteenth century (in 1848 they were still in full force), but after 1870 all companies adhered to one of the
following organizations:
The Federation of Guilds (1874) which became Fraternities Union (1889),
A Duty Societies, and Responsibility of Freedom.
It is true that was slowly disappearing true Initiation sense of these groups, and was the only
corporate system and its exoteric. However, there remained always in working class communities, some elements INITIATED, then the true hidden meaning is well preserved by some teachers.
Furthermore, it is not necessary to believe that only the corporation of architects were esoteric knowledge.
For example, the locksmiths taking a problem for the realization bolt-type: in effect, it was to transport certain names
figures, ie, take the numerical value of sacred words
establish measures and foremost, this required a symbol, which has always been at the core of Initiation, well above the
construction material itself. -
114
Page 104 Thus, the bolt - type comprised of:
1) The numerical value of the Hebrew name Iehovah (26) 2) The numerical value of the Hebrew man ADAM (45) 3) The numerical value of the Patriarch Enoch (84) 4) The numerical value of the term LaT ("hide") (39) In sum, we reason as follows: 45 plus 39 equals 84,
over 84, giving a total of 168. And this number is precisely the result of the sum of odd numbers between 3 and 26.
In addition it should be noted, moreover, that the number 3 is the expression divine, and 26 is the numerical value of the sacred word IEVE.
Then 3 plus 5 plus 7 plus 9 plus 11 plus 13 plus 15 plus 17 plus 19 plus 23 plus 25 equals 168.
And if we add 360 to 168 (the degrees of the circle, expressing I manifested universe, we get 528, which symbolizes the term: MaPhTachH, that is precisely a key.
528 plus 532 equals 4.
The number 4 is important because not only means the 4 points cardinal, the 4 major constellations, the 4 elements, 4
seasons of life, or 4 moon phases, etc ... but also
represents the fourth letter of the Hebrew alphabet, DALETH. But this symbolism of the letter D also has its significance because daleth is the UNION, in the sense of the Macrocosm and Microcosm meeting, link between external and internal, in the Hebrew purposes, as for the Chinese in their alphabetical parallelism: a threshold! 532 is the combination of solar cycle 28 and a lunar cycle
19 years old. Like this: key threshold and characterize the equilibrium (in balance), similarly to BeTheCel equals 532, and, behold
is felt all the deep science of the ancient rabbis. But alas, all this gradually lost the true doctrines of the past were forgotten, and F:. M:. After the
Constitution of 1717, was lost in humanitarian conceptions and all came to be "outside". But instead it has preserved the rituals that even in the hands of the most conservative sects, have expired after a certain time.
We know for example that Padmasambhana (the founder of Lamaism in Thibet) imported from India apart from Buddhism Tantric, custom and ritual voluntary intoxication, which existed, moreover, in Tibetan Shamanism, but it was Outlaw and, moreover, in Tibetan Shamanism, but it was
proscribed by the reformer Tsongkhapa in the fourteenth century. These excesses were not tolerated at any of the initiations worthy
this name. -
115
Page 105 As you can see real chaos reigned within the
Freemasonry (grades 33 well known this mission to reign "order" amid the "chaos") both from the esoteric point of view as from the administrative, and still have to add the theme of your humanitarian mission, so often confused with anticlericalism. We touch here a problem of two pontificates. After
appearance of the Messiah Jesus, time is divided into two periods on the Salvador victim atoning (ie, the Era has just happened), and
time of Christ the King, the Messiah and shiny wash insults (Golden Age is announced).
Holy books Announce papacy for each of these
times: the time there is the spirit of Pedro who came through their successors (the popes of Rome), until the day that the expansion of Holy Spirit will be felt and John begin his ministry of love and
will live in the soul of the new potatoes. The pontificate of Peter must finish as the coming of the Son of Man, the return of Christ
Glorious, the current Universal Messiah coincides with the period (the New Age, the Aquarian Age symbolized by the sign of the Water Bearer, the Sign of the Son of Man).
Naturally the great eras not end brutally, there
always a transition period, the end of an era is introduced into the beginning of the new, and the manifestation and makes us feel, but after two or three decades sometimes. Also, a new
Christ is not immediately recognized by ALL, but are their disciples gradually do recognize the coming of this
Messiah, symbolizing the dawn of a new Era.
The pontificate of John corresponds to replantation or manifestation of Tradition, as announced by the cycle
Revelation (descended from the heavenly Jerusalem on earth). It you can read in the Gospel of John (Chapter XIII, vers. 21 to 26) Peter has to resort to Juan and later (Chapter XIX, verse 26.)
you can see all the importance that the Master gives John his disciple preferred. Finally, in the same Gospel, Chapter XXI, vers. 18, it reappears when Peter is old and another is presented. These obviously Peter's Church, which will place a new
papal sovereignty. Verses 20 and 21 denote very well that two disciples should have a major role, and the next verse, 22 gives the conclusive idea.
There are therefore two heads, one for the exoteric church and the other for exoteric temple. Peter apparent leader, the man of faith, and John Head secret, the man of science. The two of them leave their successors, shall be a public movement leaders, other dignitaries of the
Preferred Community. - 116 Page 106 * * *
