The True Philosophy, Known And Practised By

We Are All Naturally Seekers Of Wonders. We Travel Far To See The Majesty Of Old Ruins, The Venerable Forms Of The Hoary Mountains, Great Waterfalls, And Galleries Of Art. And Yet The World's Wonder Is All Around Us; The Wonder Of Setting Suns, And Evening Stars, Of The Magic Spring-time, The Blossoming Of The Trees, The Strange Transformations Of The Moth...

It Is Not In The Books Of The Philosophers, But In The Religious Symbolism Of The Ancients, That We Must Look For The Footprints Of Science, And Re-discover The Mysteries Of Knowledge.

What We Have Done For Ourselves Alone Dies With Us; What We Have Done For Others And The World Remains And Is Immortal.

To Sow, That Others May Reap; To Work And Plant For Those That Are To Occupy The Earth When We Are Dead; To Project Our Influences Far Into The Future, And Live Beyond Our Time; To Rule As The Kings Of Thought, Over Men Who Are Yet Unborn; To Bless With The Glorious Gifts Of Truth And Light And Liberty Those Who Will Neither Know The Name Of The Giver, Nor Care In What Grave His Unregarded Ashes Repose, Is The True Office Of A Mason And The Proudest Destiny Of A Man.

But The Hour Cometh, And Now Is, When The True Worshippers Shall Worship The Father In Spirit And In Truth: For The Father Seeketh Such To Worship Him. God Is A Spirit: And They That Worship Him Must Worship Him In Spirit And In Truth.
