My name is Jeremiah Waterchilde. I have been a seeker since my youth and have spent many years in search of TRUTH. I want to share a portion from a Masonic book and then present my question. the title is; the meaning of Masonry by W.L. Wilmshurst p.134 . It is an expo on the 23rd Psalm.
" The Vital and Immortal Principle within me is my initiator; and is all-sufficient to lead me to God.
IT has made me lie down (in self-discipline and humiliation) in "green pastures" of Meditation and Mental Sustenance.
IT has led me beside "still waters" of Contemplation (as distinct from the "rough sea of passion" of my natural self).
IT is Restoring my Soul (reintegrating it out of Chaos and Disorder).
Even when I come to pass through the valley of deadly gloom (my own interior veils of darkness) I will fear no evil; for IT is with me (as a guiding Star); IT's directions and Disciplines will safeguard me.
IT provides me with the means of overcoming my inner enemies and weaknesses; IT annoints my Intellegence with the Oil of Wisdom; the Cup of my Mind brims over with a new light and Consciousness.
The Divine Love and Truth, which I SHALL FIND face to face at my center, WILL BE a CONSCIOUS PRESENCE to me all the days of my Temporal life; and thereafter I SHALL DWELL IN a " HOUSE of the LORD" ( a Glorified Spiritual Body) forever."
My Question is still being built up... I have studied Cabalah, Alchemy, Hermetics, and some Masonic texts. I have been on a journey for years of purification and the gaining of Knowledge of the TRUE SELF. I have found texts from around this planet that all point to the same IDEA but only in different Dramas. I have a thourough knowledge of the Subtle Bodies and the Chakras. How to accumulate and move Energy into my energy body. I know that I can consciously leave my Physical Body and be fully conscious outside of my Physical Body. I understand that the Alchemical Wedding is in fact the Joining of My consciousness with the All. This is the Desire of my heart and the Stirring within my Soul and all that I can hope to attain in this physical lifetime, this is my truth.
My question is this; I want to be a Mason and enjoy the fellowship of other souls who desire to grow and learn and work towards this Most Noble Goal. I would love the companionship and brotherhood of Real men, honest and noble men with the common drive for spiritual growth. I am all in with Community support and I think that there should be more exposure of the Temple within the Communities to build upon the communities potential.
I look forward to hearing from all... in perfect love and perfect trust... J.
