Acerca de esta escucha
This episode explores a symbol never named directly in the degrees, yet present everywhere in the Masonic experience: curiosity. It’s the force beneath every inquiry, every tool, every ritual. And while it may never be etched in stone or inscribed on a tracing board, it animates the Craft from within.
We reflect on how curiosity fuels the pursuit of symbolic knowledge, transforms discomfort into growth, and keeps Masons aligned with their deepest purpose—even when the work is hard to explain.
🔑 Key Takeaways
- Some of Freemasonry’s most powerful symbols are never named—they are felt.
- Curiosity is the engine of symbolic work—it drives exploration, insight, and transformation.
- Becoming an agent of change starts with a willingness to uncover what lies beneath the surface.
