This week, we read a poem from famed writer Rudyard Kipling. Equality among the workmen and honor for all are themes that wind through it. Then, we'll take you from the meeting room where the Statue of Liberty was first mentioned as a casual idea and follow it through its construction as it's built in the streets of Paris….Bronze towering over the city..before being dismantled loaded and delivered to the United States of America and finally unveiled to the world…the face of Liberty - unmasked. Stay tuned…App extras include the pieces we read plus a bonus workshop paper on benevolence. Thanks for listening and have an amazing week!

This week, we read harsh words from Manly P. Hall as he exposes fake occultists, those who would be masters if not for their lack of true knowledge or work ethic. Don't miss what's perhaps some of the most critical things Manly P Hall ever wrote. We'll dive into a segment that defines the Rosicrucians from the early 19th century—Elite Masons, who are on a quest. Steve Harrison stops by to remind us of the other 66% of what makes up great Freemasonry. It seems we're all missing it. Finally, we wrap it up with a piece on the Spiritualist ideas of the great Brotherhood of Man—A praise for the working man occultist and more. Don't miss it.
