Canadian born, Manly Palmer Hall is the author of over 150 published works, the best known of which are Initiates of the Flame, The Story of Healing, The Divine Art,Aliens Magick and Sorcery The Secret Teachings of All Ages, and An Encyclopedic Outline of Masonic, Hermetic, Qabbalistic Rosicrucian Symbolical Philosophy.
He was also the author of a masonic curiosity, The Lost Keys of Freemasonry in 1923, more than thirty years before he joined a lodge. The preface of later editions states "At the time I wrote this slender volume, I had just passed my twenty-first birthday, and my only contact with Freemasonry was through a few books commonly available to the public." Later, in 1944, he wrote The Secret Destiny of America which popularized the myth of a masonic purpose for the founding of the USA. In 1950 he weighed in again on the meaning of Freemasonry with his booklet: Masonic Orders of Fraternity.

Самораскрытие посредством упражнений, направленных на постижение.

Когда в нас рождается восхищение, мы оказываемся обогащенными и облагороженными, у нас появляются новые источники энергии и вдохновения. Чтобы восхищаться, мы должны понимать. Чтобы понимать, мы должны познавать. Чтобы познавать, мы должны искать.
Чтобы искать, мы должны желать. Чтобы желать, мы должны переживать. Чтобы переживать, мы должны чувствовать.
Таким образом мы движемся от временного к вечному, повинуясь последовательности естественных мотивов. (c)

I appreciated these insights into living a spiritual life through discipline and awareness. I’m not quite sure how to get there yet. But these ideas feel relevant to all that I’ve been going through lately.

Hiçbir birey kendi ödülünün sürgünü degildir.
Eger insan bir seyden daha fazlasini hak etseydi,
ona sahip olurdu. Eksiklik, bireyin herhangi bir sey olamamasi ya da bir sey kazanamaması nedeniyle dikkatsizliginden kaynaklanmaktadir.
