Synopsis

Excerpt from Signs and Symbols Illustrated and Explained, in a Course of Twelve Lectures on Freemasonry

In a word, light was rejected, and an unfathomable Darkness had taken possession of the Soul.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of ancient signs and symbols, exploring their use in various cultures and secret societies throughout history. The author meticulously examines the hieroglyphical systems of the Egyptians and Druids, revealing how these enigmatic symbols served as repositories of profound knowledge and moral teachings. By comparing these ancient practices with the rituals and emblems of Freemasonry, the author sheds light on the possible connections and shared origins of these seemingly disparate traditions. The book argues that Freemasonry, far from being a mere imitation of ancient mysteries, may in fact be the original source from which they sprang. Through careful analysis of symbols like the All-Seeing Eye, the serpent, and the point within a circle, the author unveils the deeper meanings and ethical principles embedded within these ancient systems. The book invites readers to embark on a journey of intellectual discovery, exploring the hidden wisdom and timeless truths that lie concealed beneath the surface of signs and symbols. Ultimately, this book challenges us to recognize the enduring power of symbols and their ability to transmit profound insights across generations and cultures. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259526148_0
