The Rectified Scottish Rite

<p>This book could just as well have been titled <em>The Rectified Scottish Rite as a Way of Awakening</em> thus completing the triptych of works by Rémi Boyer on the ways of awakening that he wrote regarding the Rose-Croix Freemasonry and Martinism.</p><p>These initiatory paths have in common Love and Knowledge the two pillars of the Gnosis which is particularly present in the Rectified Scottish Rite. For above all Jean-Baptiste Willermoz was a Gnostic like Martinez de Pasqually before him.</p><p>Serge Caillet in his introduction reminds us that Gnosis is the quest for the Real. Yet Rémi Boyer insists that the Real cannot be translated into words.</p><p>We will have to go beyond the words beyond what the rituals of the RER can say to find what they mean.</p><p>Rémi Boyer offers and comments on the instructions to the Professed and especially those of the Grand Professed who give a remarkable synthesis of the Doctrine of Reintegration.</p><p>Beauty and grace come only with freedom. It is this that the Beneficent Knights of the Holy City must guard above all else.</p><p><br></p>
