Past Times

QUESTION: Dear Lama Sing, There are different trains of thought about the Masons.  Guenther gave me some of the background of what he has read. Through the Middle Ages' crusades there were the Knights Templar, self-appointed guardians of King Solomon’s Temple, or what was left of it.  In the Thirteenth Degree, they mentioned a secret ninth vault underneath the Temple. Within the vault was a short column of marble, called the Pillar of Beauty, and on this it was intended to place the Ark.  It also tells of a cubicle stone deposited there by Enoch, the patriarch. On the cubicle stone the great venerable name of God in Hebrew letters had been carved. Only King Solomon, Hiram Abif, the Master, and King of Hiram of Tyre are supposed to have known the ineffable Name of God.  Are you allowed to put some light on this?  Is this fiction or truth?  I have heard that the Masonic Order goes back some 20,000 years. True?  This is such a large topic and I am aware that some of the things are off topic, but anything you can give and put more clarity on is so very much appreciated. Thank you Channel, Susan and Lama Sing and grouping.

LAMA SING:  It is very beautiful that this question relates to the definition of Truth and the journey to and from it. In honor of the question and our brother who holds these teachings sacred within his heart and spirit, we are permitted to respond as follows:

In those chambers which are within or beneath – for the structure is considered not that just above the ground - but in total, see, likened unto the MerKaBa in many respects, only in different manifestation for appropriateness in the Earth – here we find those chambers wherein there is such as stated in your comments present, even as we speak. 

The name of God is written.  But not in the sense as we find it in your statement and in the statements of several others, but rather so as a living script, or such.  It is that which cannot be spoken, for in the speaking of it is the invocation of that power.  This is known in those taped teachings (as are called) of the Masonic Order and others as well, to be sure.  In the intonation of that Name or the symbology of same comes the opening of the corresponding temples within self, not all of which are symbolically or literally corresponding to the physical body.  For in order that there can be the completeness of the progression – the Seventh to the Ninth – there must be the embrace of that which is unseen by most.  That these two, as steps eight and nine, are a part of the higher Order of the Masonic progression and, conversel,y are reflected in the lower chambers of the Temple of Solomon. 

So we find, for the most part, with variance here and there in terms of specifics, these are in order with what we find given.  One can draw the root of the Masonic Order – and so as to embrace all of you, dear friends, and not just those who are Masons (with a note of loving humor) – these are ancient truths and teachings.  That the grouping whom call themselves Masons have embraced this does not indicate that they and they alone hold these secrets.  These are ancient teachings that are held in the Kabalistic and in many other teachings in lands, which are foreign to you (in the North American) and to many of you (in the European).  And yet, their symbology manifests in a differing form in the Earth – in terms of structures, monuments, statue and all that sort and – conversely, those monuments which are held within. 

So we could say here, that the Order finds its root far beyond 20,000 Earth years and that much of what is recounted today, in your current time, was given and shared verbally and demonstratively by those who held that truth and who had, in many ways, become it.  There were those who sought to record this, to lay it down in writing, and some of these writings yet remain, including those which are sequestered in the Temple, and those which are sequestered in the chambers beneath the Spynxes.  Some of these have their root derivation from the Atlantean  Some are later , or, more recent from your perspective and such as this. 

The power inherent in this is the release of self from that which is seen to be the vehicle – and thus so oft thought as that which limits, which rather was intended to be the instrument of that truth which is eternal, not a barrier to it.  The movement through the stages, or Orders, or levels is indicative of the movement (and parallel to same) that was a part of the teachings in the Essenic culture and the preparation of the Way.  Each of these, then (beginning with the Maidens (in the organized sense) was structured so as to become the support for that which would be seen the upper portion, or the visible temple; and the invisible (or that which is sequestered in the chambers and vaults beneath same) to be reflective of those teachings, that training. 

So did it come to be among these peoples, as thou knowest this from what has been shared, that each of these was given a truth, a (you might call it) ancient secret, or facet of the greater Truth.  And, to hold this, ready as called upon, to recount it and invoke it in that One that would seek from them.  That thereof they would come into sharing, as your grouping so does in this Earth day strive to share, that ultimately one truth, one secret, one gift is seen to be a gift or truth to all. 

So is it then that this is a part of the work being sought and the reawakening of the Promise before you.  The Wave of Light called the Golden Silence is the pivotal point from which the movement now becomes to the upper.  So it is that the inner secrets are being brought to the outer.  And what is being sought after is a means of manifesting these, a modality into which they can be expressed.  When this is done, then you can understand the truth of what is given to you and not need to ask, “How do I know that what I am given is true and or accurate?”  You begin the process by knowing that it is; and then it shall become so. 

If there is the need to hold it at arms length and look at it, then who sees it?  That one who just dwelled in the Golden Truth, the Silence of Gold, the gold indicative of the absolute purity of oneness with God?  Or is it looked upon by one who has not that clarity, who is upon a journey to discover through experience?  And that experience does not, cannot, embrace the eternal sight, the eternal knowledge. 

There is much here, so many answers to questions that are not yet spoken.  Thou art, each one, the vessel in which all of these exist, now.  Thou are not that one who is deprived of any one of these.  For all of the gifts are offered to all of the children.  The choice, then, is not the result of one being limited or incapable; but merely that – the choice.  See?  (We trust that was not too abstract.)

When one is in harmony, they are unlimited; when one has strong personal needs, those needs can limit. The key to unlimited potential is being unlimited … that simple. You possess what you are willing to possess freely. If you must possess it, you have built a barrier to allowing it to manifest.
