Description The Scottish Rite is the most philosophical of all the branches of Freemasonry.
This work is an effort to bridge the gap between the ancient symbols, themes, quests, and philosophies offered by the Scottish Rite; and how these profound ideas can be communicated, understood, and applied to today\'s world..
As beautiful and meaningful as these are, the presentations can create a disconnect between the ancient settings of the Teachings and the Contemporary life of the men who experience them.
It also recognizes that the historical settings, language, pageantry, and form of instruction of the degrees were all penned during the 18th and 19th centuries.
It introduces the themes and quests of the Rite, and outlines how each degree or level of instruction fulfills an important element in the attainment of three of Freemasonry\'s highest principles; enlightenment, freedom and toleration.
This book takes a new look at how the Teachings of the Scottish Rite serve both the individual and humanity in advancing the ideals of peace, enlightenment, and freedom for all mankind.
The Journey is nothing less than the Journey to the mature masculine soul.
The Rite offers a facilitated path for each Initiate to find and apply the best that is within him in all activities of his life.
It provides him a higher understanding of how this newly discovered light and mindfulness can then be played out in the real world and become a guiding force in his life.
It directs him on a new Journey of self-discovery; of personal and spiritual growth.
It meets the brother immediately following his awakening to the condition of his own life, with all its challenges and victories.
