    The Grand Lodge of Antient Free and Accepted Masons of Scotland William Ramsay McGhee, OStJ, D.L., Grand Master Mason Brethren, 19th March 2021 First, my sincere apologies for the delay in getting last week’s Update out to you but as you are probably aware by now, BT had a major outage in the area which caused all sorts of problems. Hopefully, this edition will be circulated without any problem. Can I remind all Lodge Office-bearers that now is a good time to ensure that the Lodge Electrical Certificate and PAT testing are all up to date. I had a local electrician in yesterday at Lodge Seaforth – he was highly efficient, has almost given us a clean bill of health but uncovered two issues with earthing – that is being attended to and we now have the peace of mind that the building is safe and that all appliances are up to standard. On a more practical note, if you are not up to date your insurance cover could be in jeopardy. This Saturday brings about the long-awaited Young Masons zoom conference. I am delighted to be hosting it and look forward to much healthy debate on the five main issues that have materialised from the survey. My sincere thanks to all those who have signed up to attend. The final lecture in the fourth History & Heritage Group Series was given on Wednesday night by Brother Mike Craig, District Grand Master of the District Grand Lodge of East Africa. That brought to a conclusion five excellent lectures from Lebanon, Bahamas, Central South Africa, Sri Lanka and East Africa.

  • The Volume of Sacred Law (VSL)
    VSL Three Small Letters, One Big Concept The VSL, or Volume of Sacred Law, one of our Three Great Lights, has not always been a part of Freemasonry. The term seems to have been adopted around 1723. There was no edict or instruction from the first Grand Lodge of England, but like much of what we now consider established Freemasonry, it probably came from James Andersons’ “The Constitutions of the Free-Masons” written in that year. Before then, in England and all other Christian countries, it was the Holy Bible. But even that book only takes us back less than two hundred years as the Bible, especially an English language one was not even published until 1526, by William Tyndale, and then it was only the New Testament. The use of this book in a Masonic Lodge would have been hazardous as, and I quote, “One risked death by burning if caught in mere possession of Tyndale's forbidden books.” The earliest manuscripts that relate to Masonry and contain references to ritual simply refer to it as “the book” or “a book”, and that was probably their book of Constitutions and Charges. Why the change to Volume of Sacred Law rather than just saying The Holy Bible, after all, that’s what is on all of our altars today isn’t it? One of the great changes that came into Speculative Masonry with the formation of the Premier Grand Lodge and Anderson’s Constitutions was the removal of religion from the Craft. In part it reads “… though in ancient times Masons were charg'd in every country to be of the religion of that country or nation, whatever it was, yet 'tis now thought more expedient to oblige them to that religion in which all men agree, leaving their particular opinions to themselves …” Masons were no longer required to be of the one religion of their country, but rather to share a belief in a Grand Architect of the Universe or a Supreme Entity, by whatever name you wished to use.

  • GLSP-Wages-SGLP.Pdf
    DOSSIER GLSP 2013 5 Dear Brethren: I am pleased to present to you the Magazine “Memory & Wages” which is no more than a compila- tion of facts of great relevance for the History of our Symbolic Grand Lodge of Paraguay. Just as the dossier “Truth between Columns” had the expected repercussion, this material points out to events in our recent history which was built by Masons who work in Lodges within our Grand Lod- ge. “Memory & Wages” shows us another side to the “Truth between columns”, one of the silent laborer, that of prudence and intelligence, of diplomacy and above all uprightness. At the end of the day, these actions are efforts and sacrifices translated into successful works. To- day we can look back on those bitter moments we went through in 2005 after the schism. All the brethren who belong to this Grand Lodge are responsible for its achievements, it is however just the beginning of a harsh battle to establish Masonic principles in a society so empty of them. The eternal gratitude to all, to each of the brave workers who defend a cause that is common to all of Universal Freemasonry. The soundness of the Symbolic Grand Lodge of Paraguay lies in that criteria, positions, points of view can be negotiated , but never can principles be negotiated. Loyalty, goodness and Love for humanity have won the battle. Here then “Memory & Wages”… Euclides Acevedo Most Worshipful Master Symbolic Grand Lodge of Paraguay 6 Memory & Wages The institucionalist spirit of the Symbolic Grand Lodge of Paraguay that had suffered a blow in 2005 has once again triumphed and today is the reflection of the practice of Masonic principles and of allot of work.

  • FREEMASONRY in INDIA Introduction
    Extract from World of Freemasonry (2 vols) Bob Nairn FREEMASONRY IN INDIA Introduction Culturally India must be amongst the most pluralist societies in the world with multiple religions, a deeply- defined traditional caste system, a proliferation of different States and languages and vast differences between rich and poor. It is justly proud of its history and heritage. It is the home of the world‘s oldest- surviving religions with the largest following and it is a puzzle, at first glance, how Freemasonry could succeed in this environment. To resolve this puzzle it is necessary to look at India‘s history and some of its social and cultural characteristics. Early History – The Vedic Peoples While human life is traced back more than 75,000 years in India, the Vedic Period (1,500-500 BC) is the earliest significant period because it was during these times that the ‗Vedas‘ were being composed. They are a large body of texts written in Vedic Sanskrit, which constitute the oldest layer of Sanskrit literature and the oldest scriptures of Hinduism, which is probably the oldest mass religion now surviving (Judaism is said to date from the rule of Saul and David in about 920 BC). Hinduism‘s ‗alter ego‘ - Buddhism - was also born in India in the 6th or 5th century BC. The Maurya Empire1 The Vedic peoples were conquered by the Maurya Empire during the 4th and 3rd centuries BC and this is known as the classical period of Indian history, during which India has been estimated to have had the largest economy of the ancient and medieval world, controlling between one third and one fourth of the world's wealth.

    THE VOLUMES OF THE SACRED LAW (Extracted by V.W. Bro. Lin Boon Par, Singapore from a lecture delivered before the Lodge of Research, No. 218, at Melbourne, Victoria, Australia, by Wor. Bro. F. W. Stephens, P.D.G.P. (E.C.), on 22nd May, 1970. There are seven Volumes of the Sacred Law in common use in varying numbers through the East. They are in alphabetical order: (1) The Bible (OT) for the Jews. (2) The Bible (OT & NT) for Christians. (3) The Dhammapada for the Mahayana Sect of Buddhism. (4) The Gita for Hindus. (5) The Granth Sahib for Sikhs. (6) The Koran for Muslims. (7) The Zenda Avesta for Parsees and some Iranians (also called Mhordeh Avests in Singapore.) At the time of Writing (1992) it was thought that Lodge Singapore No. 7178, English Constitution, was the only lodge to have all seven of them. All are open on the pedestal and each is treated with the same respect and they are, in every way, equal to one another. The Holy Book of any religion may be used as a VSL, provided that it teaches and its adherents believe in a Supreme Being. In the Grand Lodge of India, where there are six VSL's, the Square and Compasses are placed on the VSL of the faith of the presiding officer (WM, RGM or GM) at all meetings except at installation meetings when they are placed on the VSL of the faith of the Master Elect. In Israel, where there are three VSL's, the Square and Compasses are placed on the old testament.
