    Hey man! You seem like a reputable Mason. I'm a huge fan of the CZcams channel "Esoteric Freemasonry Unveiled". If you've ever got the time, would you mind checking out an episode or 2 and letting me know your opinion on it! Unfortunately the owner of that channel vanished off CZcams years ago after only posting 13 videos. Though his course was left incomplete, I feel it gave me some very valuable tools. I'd be very curious to see what a currently active and reputable mason such as yourself thinks of the channel!

      Congrats on being a Master Mason! There is no higher honor really. And I know you will enjoy the Scottish Rite. The symbolism, history and teachings will be transformative IF you follow them truly. When you join the Rite, you will be made a 32nd (if you're in the USA).
      My suggestion is to not worry about becoming a 33rd. Find something in the fraternity to focus on~ degree work, community service...whatever. Take the lessons of Scottish Rite and put them to work in your life and your lodge. The work is its own reward and the accolades and honors will come in due time. ~M

    What kind of work does a 32nd degree Scottish rite Freemason do to achieve the 33rd degree? Who decides if the work is sufficient to qualify for promotion? Are there documented criteria for advancement or is it subjective?
    Thanks for guiding my understanding of Scottish rite freemasonry

    • @ScottishRiteMasons
      @ScottishRiteMasons  Před 4 měsíci +3

      Well, the first thing is that a 32nd degree must first be honored as a Knight Commander of the court of honor (KCCH as we say). In most Valleys (local chapter) all the other KCCH masons will make nominations. Those nominations are then forwarded to the head of the Valley or Orient and then the final determination is voted on by the Supreme Council. The process is similar for the 33rd degree, but the selection pool is of the KCCH masons.
      There is no documented criteria. But if a Mason ASKS for that honor, tradition hold that he is automatically deemed to be unworthy.

      Each lodge conducts its own investigation of petitioners, and within the rules of their Grand Lodge, makes a determination on who they will accept based on that investigation. Your condition is not automatically disqualifying in most jurisdictions. It would be up to the lodge you petitioned to decide whether it would be a problem, after they make a determination of how often you "snap," and how those snaps manifest themselves.

    • @ScottishRiteMasons
      @ScottishRiteMasons  Před 7 měsíci +2

      No. Masonry never got into banking. Many fraternities began life as mutual benefit societies, especially those that started in the post-civil war era. Many developed their own insurance brands and other things. Masonry opened old age homes and hospitals. But masons didn’t get into the other areas.

      Never heard that one; certainly possible. Several of the first members of the Supreme Council in 1801 were Jewish and may have been familiar with the Sefer Yetzira. I think we can say "possible but unlikely". ~M

      @@ScottishRiteMasons The original Egyptian rite contained 99 degrees (or at least came to have 99 degrees at some point) but was adapted by Yarker into 33 degrees. This is the version that is most practiced today, including in France and is the version I know, though I have heard of some non-regular lodges that practice 99 degrees.
      Concerning the points in your video, I will also say that it usually takes a lifetime for many members to reach 33 degrees or even 32 degrees (or even 30 degrees!) Thirty years often aren't enough unless you're the hardest working, the brightest. Even reaching MM takes an average of 5 to 7 years depending on the lodge usually in France, and indeed how could one be a Master Mason in any sense after only a few weeks or months.
      Not to mention what is actually done in the lodge: what kind of work is expected. All this to say that there exist important differences between masonic practices here and there: you would guffaw at some of the things we do and vice versa.

  • @iamblacksand

    The 33rd degrees represents the 33 vertebrae's in the spinal cord. Once the serpentine energy travels through the 33 vertebrates, it acends into the 3rd eye, reaching true illumination. That's my understanding, but I'm not a freemason, so I could be wrong.

    • @ScottishRiteMasons
      @ScottishRiteMasons  Před měsícem

      We are not commanded to read it. In fact, I would hazard to guest at nine out of 9 out of 19 33° Scottish rite Mason has never read it.
      I have read it because I helped produce the audiobook and the Kindle edition. So I’ve been through it a few times.
      I also know that you have never read it. You’ve googled a few things and you think you’ve got some accurate quotes, but the fact of the matter is if you go to a library and pull morals and dogma off the shelf - it’s pretty much readily available anywhere- you will find there is nothing scary or occult in that book at all.
      If you are comfortable with googling things and pretending you know what you’re talking about, then that’s on you, but if you’re claiming to be rational and intelligent, and not willing to go to the actual source, your claims are false. But have a nice day anyway.

    • @flybynytt
      @flybynytt Před měsícem

      I respectfully remain sceptical. No,I have not read Morals and dogma in detail. Those few words do make reference to hailing Lucifer though. Canadas prime minister is also a Canadian Scottish rite freemason. Not sure if I would want to be in the same club sir.

    • @ScottishRiteMasons
      @ScottishRiteMasons  Před měsícem

      So you admit not only that you have not read it, but that you are unwilling to read it, and are simply willing to form an opinion based on a few words that actually DO NOT come from the book Morals & Dogma. Which means you are not skeptical, but simply forming a flawed opinion based on ZERO actual fact. NOWHERE in Morals and Dogma or ANY Masonic text is there a reference to HAILING Lucifer.
      Any man of reason or intelligence would attempt to gather fact before opining on ANY subject.
      Justin Trudeau is not a Freemason, and so therefore definitely not a Scottish Rite Mason. But you "heard it" somewhere and now state it as a fact. Another person will see your statement, and also the decide it is a fact. And the virus of lies grows. And you are a carrier.
      My invitation on this channel is always- go check sources yourself. You don't need to take my word for it- go do some looking on both sides of the issue and see for yourself.
      Morals and Dogma- the real version, not the "googled" version- is available in most libraries. The chapter with a reference to Lucifer is in chapter 19. It starts a paragraph before and states all Masons hate the works of lucifer. It then states that Lucifer means "light-bearer" and its a strange name for the Prince of Darkness. Pike says Is he the light bearer? Doubt it not. He blinds feeble minded and foolish men with his false light.
      Go read it yourself.
      *sigh* You won't. The easy path is foolishness.
