Acerca de esta escucha
In this cornerstone episode, we explore the Hiramic legend as a metaphor for self-awareness and moral choice—focusing on the twelve Fellowcrafts who step back from destruction and choose integrity over ego.
The episode introduces a teleological framework to help Masons examine their own behavior: not just what we do, but why we do it—and what unconscious value that behavior might be delivering. This is an invitation to become one of the Twelve—to stop conspiring against your own growth.
🔑 Key Takeaways
- Avoidance is not weakness—it’s often a signpost to unresolved value conflict.
- To become one of the Twelve is to choose alignment over sabotage—again and again.
- The real work of the Craft begins when we stop lying to ourselves.
