My dear readers of the hidden secrets of Freemasonry,
I am so grateful to again be afforded the opportunity to write you on the deepest secrets of Freemasonry. Together we have discovered connections and uncovered mysteries that have gone unrecognized for centuries. Together we have realized incredibly fascinating root truths of our Ancient Craft.
But we are not yet utilizing our lodge’s Jachin and Boaz columns to send coherently charged dielectricity around the lodge room from metal tipped conducting rods resulting in the ashlars in the east being lifted by a mysterious forgotten natural energetic power. Nor are our initiations resulting in an immediate, dramatic, and personal transformation of consciousness in our candidates. It is entirely possible that these things did occur in a time before what I call the “great forgetting” which occurred in the recent past. We are a species in amnesia believing in a historical model that has no relation to the physical evidence we have discovered all around us of a repeating cataclysmic event that occurs to our planet.
Many of today’s historical researchers believe, and I agree with the assessment, that there has been a systematic destruction of the electrical power delivery system of a previous advanced civilization of humans that existed until the recent past. The architectural and agricultural remains from this civilization suggest a peaceful unified enlightened global population that was larger than the population of the planet today, and were largely wiped out by cataclysm and/or a nuclear or a massive electrical discharge event that left giant craters and melted stone buildings.
Clearly cathedrals were giant dielectricity (atmospheric energy) collectors, and mosques are giant electrical capacitors. Early Catholic women had to wear shawls over their hair to keep their hair down in the highly energized interior space of the repurposed power stations MICHAEL’S MASONIC ESOTERICA
now called churches. We see early insane asylums, government buildings, and schools using repurposed buildings they found(ed) that have Jachin and Boaz pillars flanking cymatic frequency controlling portal “rose circles”. We find these architectural features globally, built to the same plan with the same construction techniques.
I propose that at the beginning of the Great Forgetting a group of smart men saved the world’s most important knowledge in plain sight under the guise of Freemasonry. I think part of the hidden information is about a frequency, or a tone, or a “word” used to work with giant blocks of semi-molten stone, and I am quite convinced that the parallel key secret of Freemasonry has to do with knowledge of how to instantly create the enlightenment experience in every initiate. I believe that at the time of the prior civilization every single human on the planet was Self realized. It is our original state of consciousness. It is the easier thing to do. It just makes sense that if enough people were enlightened such that every child got taught to do it, the entire human population would be enlightened. Maybe after the forgetting humans became addicted to the fake ego way of viewing that we all do now, and Freemasons sought to re-awaken humanity by initiating new Masons with an instant Self realization process that has now also been forgotten.
Recently we discovered the rich secrets encoded within William Shakespeare’s “Book of Sonnets”, and had previously looked at secrets encoded in artwork. Since so many of the “esoteric elite” of the centuries surrounding the formation of codefied modern Freemasonry hid messages in written texts and in art and architecture, and since Freemasonry so clearly draws our attention to these things, I thought that looking for hidden codes in our most valued and oldest Masonic documents might prove to be interesting.
I’m not a code breaking mathematician by any means, but I have been exposed to quite a bit of how the ancients hid their messages, so just for fun, I have a 1947 reprint of the original 1871 “Morals and Dogma” by Albert Pike, so I thought I’d take a look for a few of the
easy clues to hidden messages. The book is 861 pages long. Dividing that in half, to find the middle of the book, puts us on page 430.5. Reading the passage that straddles the bottom of page 430 and the top of 431 is this:
“The candidate was immured in the representation of a tomb; and when released...sealed his obligation by drinking mead out of a human skull. Then all the primitive truths were made known to him..., and he was informed as to the generation of the Gods, the creation of the world, the deluge, and the resurrection.... He was marked by the sign of the cross, and a ring was given to him as a symbol of the Divine Protection; and also as an emblem of Perfection; ...”
Reading the very first two paragraphs of the book are most enlightening about Freemasonry’s core:
“Force, unregulated or ill-regulated, is not only wasted in the void, like that of gunpowder burned in the open air, and steam unconfined by science but, striking in the dark, and it’s blows meeting only the air, they recoil and bruise itself. It is destruction and ruin. It is the volcano, the earthquake, the cyclone; -not growth and progress. It is Polyphemus blinded, striking at random, and falling headlong among the sharp rocks by the impetus of his own blows.
The blind Force of the people is a Force that must be economized, and also managed, as the blind Force of steam, lifting the ponderous iron arms and turning the large wheels, is made to bore and rifle the cannon and to weave the most delicate lace. It must be regulated by Intellect. Intellect is to the people and the people’s Force, what the slender needle of the compass is to the ship-its soul, always counseling the huge mass of wood and iron, and always pointing to the north. To attack the citadels built up on all sides against the human race by superstitions, despotisms, and prejudices, the Force must have a brain and a law. Then its deeds of daring produce permanent results, and there is real progress. Then there are sublime conquests. Thought is a force, and philosophy should be an energy, finding its aim and its effects in the amelioration of mankind. The two great motors are Truth and Love. When all these Forces are combined, and guided by the Intellect, and regulated the RULE of Right, and Justice, and of combined and systematic movement and effort, the great revolution prepared for by the ages will begin to march. The POWER of the Deity Himself is in equilibrium with His WISDOM. Hence the only results are HARMONY.”
I tried to faithfully re-create the punctuation errors and other grammar oddities, like the use of the all caps words, because therein often lies the clues to a code. I noticed a number of oddly placed hyphens. They’re probably random and mean nothing, but I wrote down the words following hyphens over the first number of pages and largely got this:
“Regulated, not its these ignorance for that grown division. Hammer liberty, a continuation is its thought. The thought, where strength to combine the will.”
I’m pretty sure this is not a clue to hidden messages in Morals and Dogma that has gone unnoticed all this time, but with just a little tweaking on these words they almost make some kind of weird sense. Though this exercise might have been a failure, I do think that this is a valid path to explore. Perhaps we might yet find hidden messages in an early Masonic document that have gone unrecognized. Look
how long it took for researchers to notice the code in Shakespeare’s Sonnets, and once recognized, how obvious it was, yet people had been unaware of the information hiding in plain sight for centuries.
To misquote Nikola Tesla: “So much depends upon the 3, 5 and 7”.
Freemasonry shines it’s light to humanity through a slit. To open the slit and shine the light of Freemasonry fully upon one’s consciousness, one must first become a Mason on one’s own, in one’s own heart. Then, one must pursue membership and take the degrees. One must spend some time going through the chairs and training the mind to memorize, because the further Masonic journey will require the ability to pay attention. Then one should complete the York Rite (as far as one’s religious convictions may allow) to complete the education of the Hiramic Legend, and most certainly any Mason that wants to learn what Masonry is really about should enter the college of Freemasonry, the Scottish Rite.
Thinking about the symbolism of the Scottish Rite prompted a bit of free verse:
Ordo ab Chao
Deus Meumque Jus
Double headed eagles
Taunt with division,
The radiant light between,
is prior to separation.
Order is our original state
Chaos is the fall into I.
