Your Thoughts


Today, in a group I’m a member of involving Hermetics, they shared something written by Gerald Gardner. It was the “Law of the Wica.”

While for the most part, I agree with this ideology. I’d like to expound on point number 2.

Mostly known as the law of Karma. He said what you send out returns to you times three.

First off, Karma is really the law of cause and effect. If you do A, then expect B. It just is what it is, and there is no getting around it.

But we are all made up of three aspects. Body, mind, and spirit. So, if this is true. What you do..no..what you think. Because everything is a thought from. Touches you RIGHT NOW.

Every thought or idea leads to a physical action. Thus, creating your reality.

Guarding the West Gate is not just for your temple and Lodge. It’s for you, too. To keep clean and pure your personal “Holy of holies”

I love you and may we govern ourselves accordingly.

This is The Way

      Last night at Lodge I was asked to give some Masonic Ed. Not really having much prepared I just talked off the top of my head. I asked the question “Why are we here?” It’s always fair question and should be asked ever time we enter Temple. As Masons we are and should be selfish. I know some will question that. But we are Masons to better ourselves. Or in my opinion should be. We are here to work on who we are, not who we were. The person we were yesterday is gone. Today is all that matters. Living in the moment. Tending our wick so we can be a light to ourselves. But I also said that is Masonry is left in the Temple is will burn out and die. We are the light in a darkened world. By living what we believe we can and do change the World. How that is done is up to the Mason. So go to Temple. Learn the lessons taught there, embrace them, share them. This is the way. I love you and may we govern ourselves accordingly

Is your Masonry Magickal?

A number of the thoughts and posts I write about come from things I have seen in different groups or from conversations I have had with Brothers. This one is no different.   The other day I took part in an investigation committee for a Brother looking to join a Traditional Observance Lodge. OK, It was mine and I am very excited about the possibility of doing Masonic work with these Brothers. During our discussion it was asked in a nutshell “How did I view Masonry”. We discussed charity, philanthropy, community work, etc. This is NOT Masonry. Sure, as Masons we do work in the community. Yes, we have scholarships and do good works. In my jurisdiction we have a Masonic Foundation dedicated to these efforts. They do a wonderful job at it as well. I have also seen and met people that feel Freemasonry is a social club and treat it like the Elks, Eagles, Moose, and other such Lodges. Now, as I am not a member of those orders I can not and will not speak to their works and efforts. B...

What is in your cup?

  One day a Buddhist Monk was sitting with his students in meditation. They had been there a while. Enjoying the peacefulness of the landscape and the shade of the Cherry Trees. In time the monk opened his eyes and looked at his novice students. As they each stopped their meditation and regained focus on their teacher he asked them a question. He said “Imagine you are walking, and you have with you a cup of tea. A man bumps into you, and you spill your drink. Why did you spill it?” They looked at him puzzled. The answer was simple. They each said, “Because the man bumped us causing us to spill the tea.” The Monk looks at them and smiles. While that does appear to be the logical answer it is in fact wrong. They looked at him with puzzled faces. “But, Teacher, we had tea and the man bumped into us and it spilled.” The Monk then said…your tea spilled as it was what you were carrying in your cup. Imagine you are the cup, and someone bumped into you. What would you spill? ...
