The Point in the Heart


 Greetings Everyone!

    I’m sitting and reflecting today about my initiation ceremony (so many years ago now, but so much to decipher so it’s on my mind a lot) and I became enlightened as to one meaning of being greeted with the point of the compass over the heart.

  In the teachings of Kabbalah, we learn that one does not seek the spiritual in a sincere way until we reach “a point in our heart” where we realize we should seek enlightenment.

  When we decipher the meaning of the compass, we learn that the compass represents that which is spiritual (the square represents that which is earthly) and we are greeted with the points of the compass over our heart.

 If we view this from a kabbalistic perspective, we have entered the lodge room attaining “the point in the heart” where we realize we should seek more enlightenment, and thus, our Masonic journey towards “more light” begins!

  What is your perspective regarding this?

    Enjoy your day!

THE UNIVERSAL FREEMASON PODCAST THE CEREMONY! THE CLOTHES!

Episode 11 Universal Freemason Podcast CLICK HERE TO LISTEN   In this episode we explore once again ALBERT G MACKEY and his admonition to us all that the ceremony and rituals in freemasonry are only the clothes that cover a vast and in depth system of philosophies that we should explore more deeply than only the rituals. A viewpoint that I have shared for many years, and I hope this is insightful for you as well.

Episode 13 How Did BAPHOMET and LUCIFER Get Into Freemasonry?

To Listen To Episode 13 CLICK HERE As I mentioned, this episode was the hardest yet to produce because of the very long history of freemasonry being defamed and freemasons not taking back the narrative as this occurred. But, maybe we can take the narrative back now? Here are some enhancements to the podcast that I promised to post here. Thank you again for your time listening! Here is the You Tube Presentation citing John J. Robinson from "A Plgrim's Path" Here is the You Tube Presentation I produced regarding taking back the narrative a few years ago.   And the last is a pretty good overview of lies told about freemasonry. Enjoy, Everyone and Thanks for your support.
