To truly understand Freemasonry, ground all your studies in the fundamental teachings of the First Degree. Rather than chasing after esoteric theories or collecting degrees, focus on mastering the core principles introduced when you became an Entered Apprentice. Use these foundational lessons as a lens to interpret more complex Masonic concepts, always asking how new information expands on or relates to the basics. This approach will build a coherent and profound understanding of Masonic wisdom, avoiding common pitfalls that lead many well-meaning Brothers astray.
