This book is aimed at those who want to be more spiritual and want to start on a spiritual path in a simple, easy to understand way but are not sure how to go about it.I offer this simple guide to the "beginner", without complexity, without new age nonsense, without a lot of words, to help those who are seeking the way. I have deliberately kept this book as short and concise as possible in order to help the reader to be able to keep the salient points in mind and not be overwhelmed with this knowledge.Included in this book is the SECRET TO HAPPINESS

This book is aimed, primarily, at the newly initiated Mason, but it is also for those older Masons who have not delved into the depth of meaning in Masonic ceremonies.As Freemasonry is a system of morality, veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols, this book takes a look at what those allegories and symbols are hinting at.The creators of the amazing Masonic degree ceremonies have added a layer of meaning that goes beyond the obvious moral lessons and starts to point the Mason who seeks light towards a more spiritual understanding of himself and the reason for his existence in this world.This is the first of three volumes, each aimed at one of the three Craft Degrees.

There are reasons why every symbol and every allegory in Freemasonry should be deemed important to a Mason. Knowledge can be preserved in symbols and, often, those that preserve them can be ignorant of what they preserve. For those who continue to search for the deeper meaning behind Masonic symbols, consider yourself more enlightened than those who do not seem to understand the words "veiled in allegory and illustrated by symbols".The Craft's symbolism is a system of great depth, and only appears simplistic to those who view it superficially. However, when we research industriously, the true light of Freemasonry will unfold. This book brings to light some of the deeper meaning behind Masonic symbols.

This is a book that should be read by all Freemasons, and all those interested in Freemasonry. It will provide a deeper understanding of the hidden information that the rituals of Freemasonry are trying to convey to those who seek Truth. There are thousands of books on Freemasonry and most of them cover literal interpretations of Masonic ritual and expand on the moral lessons to be learned from them. This book is different to most, in that it looks beyond the literal veil, and digs into the deeper messages embedded in the rituals, symbols, and ceremonies. The symbols and rituals of Freemasonry have always been mysterious, even to the average Mason. This book exposes the hidden code that underlies each of the Craft rituals and which points to the true meaning of these ceremonies. People join Freemasonry for different reasons: the camaraderie; self-improvement; charitable service - mostly to fill some void in their lives. Many, today, are looking for something deeper, but are not interested in the formal trappings of the various religions. Many of these are disappointed because they don't find what they're looking for in Freemasonry and, as a result, leave the organization. This is unfortunate because embedded in the truly amazing, multi-layered ritual, are messages from the Ancient Mysteries, which point out a clear path, through ancient knowledge, to spiritual consciousness. This knowledge, which constitutes the real "secrets and mysteries of ancient Freemasonry", was regularly taught in the earlier days of the Craft, but seems to have been forgotten over the years. This book is aimed at reviving that knowledge and spreading it to Masons and non-Masons across the world, to reach those that seek Truth and Light, and gain the full benefit of what Freemasonry is all about.
