Ceremony for the degree of
Grand Elect of the AEons, 39º
Dit Amerikaanse rituaal dateert uit de tweede helft van de negentiende eeuw
In the Phoenician language AEon signifies a central point of
developmen. It also has reference to the Avators or Saviours Gods treated by the
Mysteries.
Marconis says that its precepts are drawn from the Izesclme, a
Zoroastrian work of 72 chapters. Our Order, born with the first races of mankind
has initiated and developed everything that has been of service to humanity. As
the child of the dogma of true light it has marched at the head of civilization
and advanced the progress of intelligence.
Our Order is the depository of all that is valuable to man, as
it has preserved in its temples that which the profane world has long lost - the
virgin simplicity of natural laws.
Properly speaking the Zoroastrian Masonry of the last century
was divided into three points: the Veiled; the Elect and the Seer, and its
object was the rehabilitation of Man, so that he might approach his Creator.
Thus it brings the Seer in contact with the facts of Magnetism, Somnambulism,
dreams, prescience of prevision, and sympathies and antipathies.
