Rosslyn Chapel Scotland: Temple of Initiation
October 1, 2016 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Rosslyn Chapel Scotland is a temple of initiation because it is concerned with spiritual enlightenment rather than secrets. In modern times the way of truth is open to all. This is a presentation for Masons or anyone from across Nova Scotia to attend. It focusses on the deeply symbolic carvings in Rosslyn Chapel Scotland. Their layout suggests that the chapel was created to host initiations. The carvings at Rosslyn were created before any official Masonic lodges were established in Scotland. However the seeds of this craft were clearly planted here. The knowledge was available to those within private circles at the time.
I have shown many Masons and individually Grand Masters (and Rosicrucians) round Rosslyn between 1999 until 2009 when I moved to Ireland. There are many variations in form in the Masonic movement worldwide, and my presentation focusses on information that is more esoteric and which lies as an essential core behind what these various groups choose to place their focus on.
It is based on the research into ancient Hebrew by a past Naval commander William Buehler, and is augmented by my own insights regularly visiting the chapel for many years (averaging four times per week over each year I would say).
Donations welcome toward travel and expenses.
Thoroughly enjoyed your presentation today to our group of Mason’s and friends about Rosslyn Chapel! While we were only a small group, we were a group that wanted to learn more and we were a mix of younger and older Mason’s. Very well presented. I hope we will have the opportunity in the future to have you make this presentation to an even larger group.
Bob Thanks for your feedback- very much appreciated. I look forward to returning to the theme park and presenting to 300! The chapel is enormously important as I am sure you know.
