Masonry and Its Symbols
Harold W. Percival
- The
- foundations
- of
- Masonic
- symbolism
- are
- universal,
- eternal,
- timeless.
- The
- Order
- has
- existed
- under
- one
- name
- or
- another
- long
- before
- the
- building
- of
- the
- first
- pyramid.
- It
- predates
- any
- religion
- known
- today!
- This
- makes
- Masonry
- the
- oldest
- entity
- of
- its
- kind
- to
- prepare
- candidates
- for
- an
- inward
- life.
Within
- Masonry
- and
- Its
- Symbols
- lies
- the
- heart
- and
- soul
- of
- a
- most
- worthy
- brotherhood
- of
- humanity
- -
- Freemasonry.
- Throughout
- time,
- many
- of
- the
- great
- truths
- embedded
- in
- the
- symbols
- and
- rituals
- of
- Masonry
- have
- become
- obscured.
- Written
- in
- the
- Light
- of
- Thinking
- and
- Destiny,
- this
- book
- brings
- an
- in-depth
- perspective
- to
- these
- age-old
- teachings,
- creating
- an
- opening
- for
- these
- seemingly
- inexplicable
- forms
- and
- practices
- to
- become
- comprehensible
- to
- a
- wider
- audience.
- Every
- Mason
- who
- desires
- a
- truer
- understanding
- of
- the
- symbols
- of
- Masonry,
- of
- the
- ceremonies
- in
- which
- he
- takes
- part,
- and
- of
- their
- deep
- esoteric
- significance,
- could
- find
- great
- value
- here.
- However,
- the
- knowledge
- and
- profound
- revelations
- contained
- in
- this
- book
- are
- of
- value
- to
- all,
- whether
- Masons
- or
- non-Masons,
- who
- are
- interested
- in
- human
- betterment.
- The
- author
- makes
- clear
- that
- Masonry
- is
- not
- for
- any
- special
- race,
- religion
- or
- gender,
- but
- for
- all
- of
- humanity
- -
- the
- conscious
- self
- in
- every
- human
- body.
- He
- also
- reveals
- how
- any
- one
- of
- us
- can
- choose
- to
- prepare
- for
- the
- highest
- purposes
- of
- mankind:
- Self-knowledge,
- regeneration,
- conscious immortality.
