Philosophical Temple
Upon completing the foundational three degrees within the Blue Lodge, each Rite invites members to deepen their personal quest through its own unique framework.
The Philosophical Temple extends this opportunity not only to our own Brothers and Sisters, but also to Master Masons of other Rites who desire a novel initiatory perspective. Here, members may explore a unique reading of Freemasonry aimed at confronting the timeless questions of existence, the universe, the self, and the mystery of life after physical death, without ignoring contemporary theories on matter and consciousness.
Within the Philosophical Temple, along a path encompassing seven Grades, such inquiries are refined through study, praxis, and fraternal exchange of individual insights.
The architecture departs from that commonly practiced within the Egyptian Rites, and is the result of a recent decision of the Grand Patriarchs of our Tradition.
