Book Synopsis The Templar Genesis of Freemasonry: Turning the Templar Key Revisited by : Robert Lomas
Download or read book The Templar Genesis of Freemasonry: Turning the Templar Key Revisited written by Robert Lomas and published by Classics of Masonic Writing. This book was released on 2018-09-16 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About 60% of the content of this revised edition was first published in 2007 to mark the seven hundredth anniversary of the destruction of the Knights Templar in 1307, under the title Turning the Templar Key. I have revisited that material to create this new edition that is a fuller discussion of How, Where and Why Freemasonry started and returns to the issue of whether the Knights Templar had anything to do with the genesis of Freemasonry. The main questions which I posed myself when I wrote Turning the Templar Key were. 1. Did the original Knights Templar survive their apparent destruction and morph into Freemasonry? 2. Are the Masonic Knights Templar the legitimate successors of the original Order of Knights Templar founded in Jerusalem and disbanded in 1307? Whilst investigating these questions, and explaining and discussing them in Masonic lectures, I uncovered the real history of Freemasonry. I discovered how it came to have such a strange legacy of mythical histories, including the persistent and popular idea that Masons are really Knights Templar in disguise. The original book, which had to meet the anniversary of the destruction of the Templars did not leave enough space to tell the full story. Large sections of the purely Masonic material had to be cut out to meet the publication dead- lines and that is something I have always regretted. As I have since uncovered more detail I decided to revisit the book and write this revised and extended edition. This edition focuses purely on the role Templarism played in the development of Freemasonry. Whilst writing it I decided to remove a lot of material which was concerned with the ancient origins of major Masonic mythical themes and symbols (I do intend to revisit those chapters on Symbolism and write a revised and extended volume on the Ancient Origins of Symbolism). I have added more historical information about Freemasonry and if you are interested in where the Craft really came from, and how it developed, then this book will enlighten you.

Download or read book The Lost Key written by Robert Lomas and published by Coronet. This book was released on 2011-06-09 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Robert Lomas is the bestselling co-author of The Hiram Key and other international bestsellers on Freemasonic mysteries. Many say he is the model for Dan Brown's hero, Robert Langdon.The Lost Key contains revelations that only an initiate of the highest orders of esoteric Freemasonry is in a position to make. Here is the truth behind the hints in Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol that Freemasonry is concerned to reawaken the hidden potentialities and powers of the human mind.The thrilling narrative of this new book follows a candidate for initiation as he rises through the different grades of initiation, taking part in ceremonies that are sometimes terrifying but always revealing of new knowledge and presenting new mysteries which will only be solved when the next stage of initiation has been achieved. Dramatic episodes include the re-enacting of an ancient murder from 3,000 years ago in full gory detail, lowering the candidate on the end of a rope into a dark vault under the floor of the temple, holding a dagger to the candidates naked breast, and making the candidate attend his own funeral.In the secret teachings revealed to some high-level initiates, there is a type of instruction which seems curiously similar to religious and mystical teachings. Astrology, angels, chakras and the powers of the mind to operate independently of the body, such as in remote viewing, are all a part of Freemasonic lore.Robert Lomas is both a physicist - he teaches physics at Bradford Unversity - and a Freemason. Here he reveals to a wider public and also explains these secret teachings for the first time. He shows that while they are dismissed as superstitious by campaigners for atheism such as Richard Dawkins, they are very much part of the strange, paradoxical world opened up by the latest thinking in quantum physics. This is why he prefers to call them 'Supranatural'.
Book Synopsis The Secret Power of Masonic Symbols by : Robert Lomas
Download or read book The Secret Power of Masonic Symbols written by Robert Lomas and published by Quarto Publishing Group USA. This book was released on 2011-10-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illustrated guide to ancient Masonic symbols and how they have shaped our world throughout history. For more than five hundred years, the symbology of Freemasonry has fostered a secret stream of radical ideas running just beneath the surface of popular culture today. These ideas, illuminated by public symbols hidden in full view, have influenced and shaped the society we have today. Despite this ongoing record of inspiration, no illustrated guidebook to the basic ideas of Masonic Symbology has even been published and the story remains mysterious—until now. This authoritative guide reveals how this symbology has been the backdrop to key historical events in the history of humanity from ancient times and how, in more recent times, inspired leaders have harnessed the symbols’ power to bring about change in society. Renowned Freemasonry historian Dr. Robert Lomas takes you inside the Secret Order and shows you how Entered Apprentices first learn their craft, and how continual exposure to these mystical symbols can change the way you think. You’ll explore the six mysterious Tracing Boards that are at the heart of every Masonic Grand Lodge, ending with the final, most mystical symbol, known as “the Centre.” Let The Secret Power of Masonic Symbols be your personal guide and show you how these symbols have made their indelible mark on the past, and how they will continue to influence society in the future.

Book Synopsis Freemasonry For Beginners by : Robert Lomas
Download or read book Freemasonry For Beginners written by Robert Lomas and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people have heard of Freemasonry, but few have any idea what it is, what it does, or why it exists. Freemasonry is not a religion, but rather a spiritual self-help society whose declared purpose is to help members become better citizens, and it has a strong track record of doing just that since it began in Scotland in the 15th century. Freemasonry For Beginners explores the objectives and teaching methods of Freemasonry and describes its influence on society in the past, present, and future. It recounts the origins of the movement in Scotland and its spread to North America and the rest of the world. Not least of all, it shows how Masonic teachings have helped so many members over the centuries learn the skills to become leaders in society, science, and the arts.

Book excerpt: A myth-busting journey through the twilight world of fringe ideas and alternative facts. Is a secret and corrupt Illuminati conspiring to control world affairs and bring about a New World Order? Was Donald Trump a victim of massive voter fraud? Is Elizabeth II a shapeshifting reptilian alien? Who is doing all this plotting? In Hope and Fear, Ronald H. Fritze explores the fringe ideas and conspiracy theories people have turned to in order to make sense of the world around them, from myths about the Knights Templar and the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, to Nazis and the occult, the Protocols of Zion and UFOs. As Fritze reveals, when conspiracy theories, myths, and pseudo-history dominate a society’s thinking, facts, reality, and truth fall by the wayside.
Book Synopsis The Secret Legacy of Jesus by : Jeffrey J. Bütz
Download or read book The Secret Legacy of Jesus written by Jeffrey J. Bütz and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-12-21 with total page 355 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shows how the true teachings of Jesus were passed down through the centuries and shaped the vision of the Founding Fathers • Reveals for the first time the hidden link that connects James the Brother, Islam, the Cathars, the Knights Templar, and Freemasonry • Shows how the Founding Fathers used these teachings enshrined in Masonic principles to build a new nation With the success of Paul’s desire to impose his vision for the Church, the true teachings of Jesus--as preserved by his family and disciples--were forced into hiding. This clandestine movement was evidenced by such early groups as the Nazarenes, Ebionites, and Elkesaites but is generally thought to have died out when the Church of Paul branded these groups as heretics. However, despite the ongoing persecution by the Roman Catholic orthodoxy, this underground Jewish strain of Christianity was able to survive and resist incorporation into its more powerful rival. Jeffrey Bütz, author of The Brother of Jesus and the Lost Teachings of Christianity, reveals for the first time the hidden theological link that connects James the Brother of Jesus and the Ebionites with the religion of Islam, the Cathars, the Knights Templar, and Freemasonry. In The Secret Legacy of Jesus, Bütz demonstrates how this centuries-old underground stream of Christ’s original teachings remained alive and how it surfaced again in Colonial America, where the Founding Fathers used Masonic principles rooted in Jewish Christian teachings to establish what they believed would be a “New Jerusalem.” With the rise of a fundamentalist Christianity, this potent spiritual vision was lost, but Bütz contends it can be recovered and used to bring about the reconciliation of Christians, Jews, and Muslims throughout the world.
Book Synopsis God, Creation, History & Faith by : Peter Heyden
Download or read book God, Creation, History & Faith written by Peter Heyden and published by Memoirs Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11-01 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the end of the Second World War many archaeological finds have been made and much has been learned, particularly from the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Nag Hammadi texts. Many early documents have come to light, which were buried to avoid the destruction of all kinds of early religious beliefs and practices ordered by the 'orthodox' Church. As a result a host of scholars, archaeologists, theologians and fiction writers have since written hundreds of books on the subject matter, which had been hidden for nearly 1800 years. Over the past six years the author has read over two hundred books, pamphlets and pages from numerous websites. He read them all with interest, but more importantly with an open mind, whatever the persuasion of the writer and whatever angle or message they have been trying to convey. This book has been put together by amalgamating many of the thoughts, ideas and claims written in these books, interspersed with the author's own thoughts and ideas. The aim is to provide for the author an explanation of what may have happened historically, and how that has affected his own thinking. It is for his own satisfaction to try to gauge the course of the history of creation and religion through to the establishment of the early Christian Church, and of course in so doing studying other religions as well.

The discovery of evidence of the most secret rites of Freemasonry in an ancient Egyptian tomb led authors Chris Knight and Bob Lomas into and extraordinary investigation of 4, 000 years of history. This astonishing bestseller raises questions that have challenged some of Western civilisation's most cherished beliefs: Were scrolls bearing the secret teachings of Jesus buried beneath Herod's Temple shortly before the destruction of Jerusalem by the Roman's? Did the Knights Templar, the forerunners of modern Freemasonry, excavate these scrolls in the twelfth century? And were these scrolls subsequently buried underneath a reconstruction of Herod's Temple, Rosslyn Chapel in Scotland - where they are now awaiting excavation? The authors' discoveries shed a new light on Masonic ceremony and overturn out understanding of history.
