Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Masonry This work is fraternally dedicated to you. In your kindly charge it is placed, hoping that when it has been measured by the plumb, square and level, it will be found good work, true work, square work, and just such work as you need and may pass to be used in the building up of the real Masonic structure. The field of study among the aboriginal races of the new world is intensely interesting, and so much so that the author would fain do more and more in that field, could he have the time at his disposal, for he firmly believes that the Craft of this country owes it to itself to have this work done. He also believes that facts may yet be found out there, which will make our Masonry look like a Broadway store building beside an old Egyptian temple. Astonishing and curious things of the past not only fascinate and inter est, but lure one on to seek to dispel the shadows cast about them and to view them in the light by which those people worked.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hayden's Researches of Masonry The new Grand Lodge directed George Payne, who had been elected its Grand Master, to collect all the documents, manuscripts, charters, rituals, etc., relating to the ancient usages of the fraternity, for the purpose of connecting them with the registers and anglo-saxon deeds written in the Gothic and Latin languages, and of the whole to form a body of laws and doctrines, and to publish so much of the same as might be judged proper and necessary. After the careful examination of all these deeds, and a report made of their subjects by a commission composed of fourteen brethren, chosen from the most erudite Masons of London, the Grand Lodge directed that brother Dr. Anderson, a doctor of philo Sophy and eminent minister of the Presbyterian Church at London, compile from these documents a constitution to be preceded by a history of the corporation, which would in the future serve as a guide to modern Free masonry. Brother Anderson, having acquitted himself of the task, in 1722, submitted his work to the commission, who approved it, and caused it to be sanctioned by the Grand Lodge on the 25th of March, 1723. This constitution is entitled, The Book of Constitutions for Freemasons, Containing the History, Charges, and Regulations, etc., of that Most Ancient and Right Worshipful Fraternity for the Use of the Lodges.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Indian Masonry To the Brethren of the Craft: This work is fraternally dedicated to you. In your kindly charge it is placed, hoping that when it has been measured by the plumb, square and level, it will be found good work, true work, square work, and just such work as you need and may pass to be used in the building up of the real Masonic structure.

Astonishing and curious things of the past not only fascinate and interest, but lure one on to seek to dispel the shadows cast about them and to view them in the light by which those people worked. When facts are served up ready for mental absorbing, the average reader does not grasp the great labor it takes to gather, analyze and arrange them for his intellectual repast, even in so humble an effort as the present one. The writer offers no apology, and, according to his ability and honest efforts, he has never hesitated to do his full share of work for the best interests of the Craft wheresoever dispersed, and so he hopes always to do.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Indian Freemasonry In the beginning God created heaven and earth. - Genesis. Remove not the ancient landmark which thy fathers have set. Solomon. Speculative masonry is so far interwoven with religion as to lay us under the strongest obligations to pay that rational homage to the Deity, which at once constitutes our duty and our happiness. It leads the contemplative to view with reverence and admiration the glorious works of creation and inspires them with the most exalted ideas of the perfection of the divine Creator. Samuel Cole. We also have a religion which was given to our forefathers and has been handed down from father to sou. We worship in that way. It teaches us to be thankful for all the favors we receive, to love one another and be united. - Red Jacket. It is more than probable that the diversified customs, institutions and religions of the several nations of the world are less dissimilar in their origin than is often imagined. The differences arose in the progress of time, the shifting scenes of climate, condition and event. But the original ideas of existence and the laws that pertain to all created things are pretty much the same among all the tribes of mankind. - Westropp, Ancient Symbol Worship.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Universal Masonic Library, Vol. 10: A Republication, in Thirty Volumes, of All the Standard Publications in Masonry In the present extension of Freemasonry, when it flourishes abundantly in every quarter of the globe, and embraces many objects of research, which our brethren, even of the eighteenth century, did not entertain; and when spurious rituals have been offered to public notice, professing to contain a description of the entire secrets, pursuits, and machinery of the Craft, it becomes a duty of no inconsiderable moment, to place the Institution on its proper basis, as a society which blends science and morals, unites benevolence and philosophy, and displays an example of paternal union which is sought in vain amidst other scenes in these times of religious and political excitement.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mysteries of Masonry: Being the Outline of an Universal Philosophy Founded Upon the Ritual and Degrees of Ancient Freemasonry As the earth is cold in winter, but revives nu der the genial sun of spring, bringing forth her love flowers as a token of divine favor; so the heart, when chilled by self-love, is a dreary waste, and darkness is upon the face of the deep. But when the heavenly Spirit of charity moves upon the waters, the heart is warmed, and the under standing is illuminated by a divine light. A thousand principles of latent truth spring forth to quicken and elevate the imagination to view, with reverence and awe, the unfoldings of those principles handed down to us through the golden age of man, concealed in correspondential sem blances, locked like a precious casket, and sealed with seven seals, which the Divine Hand will only open to a loving heart and faithful breast.

Download or read book Cryptic Masonry written by Albert Gallatin Mackey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cryptic Masonry: A Manual of the Council, or Monitorial Instructions in the Degrees of Royal and Select Master; With an Additional Section on the Super-Excellent Master's Degree The American Rite, the name now very generally conceded to that series of degrees which are conferred in this country, is a modification of the English or Ancient York Rite, and consists, by the universal consent of all Masonic ritualists for more than half a century, of nine degrees, commencing with the Entered Apprentice, and terminating with the Select Master. To this series I desire to confine the Rite, and have no wish, as I have no authority, to extend it beyond the original number. The degree of super-excellent Master I therefore reject from the Rite, not because it is the recent invention of some prolific brain, for it is, at least, as old as some of the acknowledged degrees of the Rite - such, for instance, as that of Most Excellent Mas ter - but because neither Webb, nor Cole, nor Cross, nor any other more recent Masonic ritualist, has recognized it as constituting any part of the Rite. It has, on the contrary, until very recently, been always conferred as an honorary or detached degree, and as such it should be considered.
