WHAT MASONRY TEACHESThe opportunity for study which Masonry offers is unlimited. Like thought, Masonry has no frontiers. The Ancient Mysteries, the Cathedral Builders, the beginnings of Speculative Masonry, a study of the great Masonic writers, and of the great men whose lives were influenced by Masonry- all are subjects which rouse the interested Mason to painstakingly research and study. It is all important. The earnest student who seeks to learn so that he may teach, represents the strongest factor in the efforts of man to perpetuate underlying truths. There is, however, this to remember: that wherever our study may lead, we should be conscious of what we actually have of precious value which we can make use of in our lives and transmit to the lives of others. Where Masonry is derived from is an important study, but more important is the fact that Masonry has a philosophy, a system of morality, truths expressed through symbolism and a way of life. We must remember also that Masonry is for those who are prepared to receive it. What is easily secured is never appreciated. The teachers of Masonry must speak to attentive ears and responsive hearts. In this way the teacher continues to be the pupil, and the pupil becomes the teacher. |
