Manly P. Hall, masonic and esoteric scholar, traces the path followed by initiates to the ancient craft. Hall also recounts the ethical training required of a Freemason, and he profiles the character traits a Mason must "build" within himself. More than a mere social organization a few centuries old, Freemasonry can be regarded as a perpetuation of the philosophical mysteries and initiations of the ancients. This book reveals the unique and distinctive elements that have inspired generations of Masons. Thoughtful members of the craft, as well as outsiders, will appreciate its exploration of Masonic idealism and the eternal quest, from humble candidate to Entered Apprentice and eventually Master Mason.
This is one of the all-time best selling books on Freemasonry. It covers the symbolic meanings used in the craft relating to earlier initiates all the way up through the higher degrees. The instruction given in the lodges of freemasonry takes on an added dimension with the addition of this interesting guidebook. There are deeper meanings hidden within Freemasonry and only wise initiates like Manly Hall are able to shed light on this symbolism and then share it with you, the reader. One of the mistakes some Masons make is their use of the organization as a type of social club, while ignoring its deeper spiritual truths. Discovering them is inspiring to those seeking information that has been hidden within the craft for hundreds of years. Recommended for anyone interested in spiritual and religious symbolism, ancient wisdom teachings, and freemasons, old and new alike.
