My beloved brothers
Freemasonry, this balance between diversity and harmony is the force that has played and will play a universal positive role in the implementation of a new world, by familiarizing the general public with Masonic thinking. It is like the phoenix bird, moreover, it constantly adapts to the objectivity of the history it creates in its development and the world in its evolution. Freemasonry has forged modern history and continues to forge contemporary history
A truly free mason believes in God and in the immortality of the soul. Freemasonry is a universal, traditional, philosophical and progressive initiatory order, whose main goals are the search for truth and the perfection of man. Freemasonry does not impose any limits in the search for truth and has as its motto “Freedom, Equality, Fraternity.”
Know yourself, love your neighbor, help him, respecting his dignity is a fundamental principle in Freemasonry.
Our mission is to fight Ignorance, Tyranny, Despotism and Vice.
The weapons we use in this fight are: Knowledge, Virtue and Love.
We can truly contribute to the moral, intellectual and spiritual elevation of society by living the present free … in harmony with universal laws. The wisdom, love and affinity for beauty with which we have been endowed, support our actions, but also allow us an objective analysis of past experiences to understand the evolutionary direction we follow.
It is necessary to believe in something, to believe in someone… The Masonic belief is revealed, for each of us, starting with the quality of master mason, in the symbolic lodge. I believe that being a mason does not just mean going mechanically to outfits. The ritual is the way to communicate between us, and it subtly conveys to us that the outfit must be lived by each participant inside, in the silent self. And Silence…, Silence is what unites us. Listen, from time to time, to the silence… Listen to the silence in the temple, it is our strength… Contradictory discussions do not bring anything good between us; pride, vanity, must be left behind. There are much more important things we need to treat, such as: health and harmony in the family.
The world is constantly changing, and the pace is so fast that yesterday’s solutions can become today’s problems, that’s why we as Masons must keep up, contribute to collective progress, preceded of course by the individual, using all the tools which are at our disposal. We fight against ignorance and only through involvement, perseverance and devotion can we achieve all our goals.
Thanks again for everything! Together we are strong, together we can change the world, dear ones! Together we can build everything we set out to do. We are talking about generations, values, society. This requires everyone’s desire and contribution.
