This week, we continue the conversation about ritual--its importance and meaning, as we read a piece from New York Mason. In it, he reveals the secrets of past rituals and rites, what those rites of passages do for modern and contemporary society, and mostly lays bare one of the greatest threats to Craft Freemasonry. Then we'll hear from Ill. Bro. Steve Harrison as he tells a fantastic tale of Sammy, a Master Mason, who does some incredible things, and later, it turns personal. We'll wrap it all up with a brief discussion on the idea of balance or equilibrium. Where does the word come from? What does it mean? And as we think about it in our practical application, we ask how we can utilize that thinking in making our lives better. All this and more, stay tuned!
