프리메이슨에 관련된 사이트

프리메이슨 : 상류층들만이 가입할 수 있는 것으로 알려졌지만, 현대에 들어서 상류층만의 가입을 받는다고 단정짓기 힘들 수도 있다. 현재 프리메이슨이 내걸고 있는 모토가 세계 동포주의적 박애와 형제애이며 가입 조건도 일정 요건만 충족되면 누구나 가입이 가능하다. 하는 일도 한국의 로터리 클럽이나 라이온스 클럽처럼 자선, 봉사 활동이 대부분이다. 알려진 가입자 중에서 유명한 사람들이 많기 때문에 상류층들의 클럽이라는 인식이 생긴 듯 하다.

	ALCHEMY Alchemy covers several philosophical traditions spanning some four millennia and three continents. These traditions' general penchant for cryptic and symbolic language makes it hard to trace their mutual influences and "genetic" relationships. One can distinguish at least three major strands, which appear to be largely independent, at least in their earlier stages: Chinese alchemy, centered in China and its zone of cultural influence; Indian alchemy, centered around the Indian subcontinent; and Western alchemy, which occurred around the Mediterranean and whose center has shifted over the millennia from Greco-Roman Egypt, to the Islamic world, and finally medieval Europe. Chinese alchemy was closely connected to Taoism and Indian alchemy with the Dharmic faiths, whereas Western alchemy developed its own philosophical system that was largely independent of, but influenced by, various Western religions.
	FREEMASONRY Papers under this category fall under the theme of the Masonic stream of the Western Esoteric Tradition. This tradition formalized itself in England in 1717 but no doubt existed prior to that event. Although Freemasonry includes elements from other traditions such as Hermeticism, Rosicrucianism and Chilvalry, it has many unique elements that distinguish it. Some papers explore the various symbolism found within the great resources of the Fraternity.
	GNOSTIC It is the teaching based on Gnosis, the knowledge of transcendence arrived at by way of interior, intuitive means. A collection of ancient religions that taught that people should shun the material world created by the demiurge and embrace the spiritual world.
	HERMETIC Hermeticism is the ancient philosophy, theory and practice of the inner secrets of man, nature and spirit. It's origins are lost in the mists of prehistory.  Its revivals in the Hellenistic, Renaissance and modern times have often been pale reflections of its real nature. Though much of its records are lost, it has re-risen from the flames like the Phoenix under many different guises. Fragments of this great primal teaching are distributed throughout the world.
	KABBALAH The Jewish mystical tradition known as the Kabbalah formulated in Spain in the late 12th century. It has been called the heart of Jewish mysticism. We know by the late 14th century its influence had spread to other areas of Europe and by the late 15th century studied deeply by the Careggi circle of Marcilio Ficino in Italy. It was Giovanni Pico and later his associate Johann Reuchlin who are credited with incorporating the Kabbalah into a Neoplatonic Christian framework that has lead to the form used today in Hermeticism, Rosicrucianism, Tarot and Freemasonry.

	ROSICRUCIAN Papers under this category are concerned with the Rosicrucian stream of the Western Esoteric Tradition. This movement arose in Germany in the early 17th century with the publication of the two Rosicrucian manifestoes. In short, it represents the fusion of several mystical schools of thought. The symbol of the Rose and Cross conjoined has always represented this tradition.
	THELEMA Papers under this category fall under the Thelemic stream of the Western Esoteric Tradition. This school of magic and mysticism originated and centers upon Aleister Crowley, an occultist and writer who had a huge impact upon modern esoteric thought. His studies covered most of the mystical and theurgical systems in the world. His personal practices and experiences were just as extensive. The result of such concentrated and dedicated Work developed into its own unique system.
