Freemasonry and Jesuits

"It is curious to note too that most of the bodies which work these, such as the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite, the Rite of Avignon, the Order of the Temple, Fessler's Rite, the 'Grand Council of the Emperors of the East and West — Sovereign Prince Masons,' etc., etc., are nearly all the offspring of the sons of Ignatius Loyola. The Baron Hundt, Chevalier Ramsay, Tschoudy, Zinnendorf, and numerous others who founded the grades in these rites, worked under instructions from the General of the Jesuits. The nest where these high degrees were hatched, and no Masonic rite is free from their baleful influence more or less, was the Jesuit College of Clermont at Paris."-Vol 2, Page 390 ISIS UNVEILED H. P. Blavatsky

"Masonry, hefore it was contaminated by the disciples of Loyala — the Jesuit  — had it also. It is for Masons to bring out the good and the true from the rubbish." - Ancient Mystic Oriental Masonry By R. Swinburne Clymer pg. 11

"That bastard foundling of Freemasonry, the 'Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite,' which is unrecognized by the Blue Lodges was the enunciation, primarily, of the brain of the Jesuit Chevalier Ramsay. It was brought by him to England in 1736-38, to aid the cause of the Catholic Stuarts. "-Vol 2, Page 390 ISIS UNVEILED H. P. Blavatsky

Freemasonry and Rosicrucian

"No matter what the Order, whether Masonry or Mystic Masonry, no matter the name, it has always been found that Rosicrucians had the work in hand." - Ancient Mystic Oriental Masonry By R. Swinburne Clymer pg. 10

"all the Societies similar to the African Brothers, the Fratres Lucis and others of like calibre, were but the outward manifestations of hidden forces which were attempting to indoctrinate the whole Masonic Body with true spiritual, mental and moral Mystic knowledge, because the Masonic body, as such, had already lost the key to its own symbolism and none but the genuine Rosicrucian Fraternity held this key. The leaders of the Order now known as Ancient and Mystic Oriental Masons were Rosicrucians. " - Ancient Mystic Oriental Masonry By R. Swinburne Clymer pg. 72

"John Yarker, "Records and Documents of Freemasonry." the Rosicrucians were the real heads of all Masonic bodies." - Ancient Mystic Oriental Masonry By R. Swinburne Clymer pg. 95

"In the Western World the lotus has been changed to the rose. The roses of the Rosicrucian, the roses of the Masonic degrees, and also those of the Order of the Garter in England, all stand for the same thing, the awakening of consciousness and the unfolding into full bloom of the soul qualities of man. When man awakens and opens this bud within himself, he finds, like the gold pollen in a flower, this wonderful spiritual city, Shamballa, in the heart of the lotus.” The Initiates of the Flame Manly P. Hall pg. 32

The Rosicrucian influence is not only in the Eighteenth Degree of the Ancient and Accepted Rite, but also in the Craft Degrees, especially in the Third Degree.

"There shall be a Literary and Masonic Association connected with the O.T.O., to be known as THE ESOTERIC ROSICRUCIANS. All its official publications shall be issued with the hermetic cypher: ".I . N . R . I ."" - .I . N . R . I . CONSTITUTION of the ANCIENT Order of Oriental Templars article xv section i

"As the members of the Templars who escaped were few in number and died one after the other, the remaining members drew together to form a bond of friendship, to which end they drew up certain rules. This new society appeared in different forms and under different names, Cross Society or Brothers of the Cross, Noaities, and in later days adopted the name of Freemasons."- Ancient Mystic Oriental Masonry By R. Swinburne Clymer pg. 99

Freemasonry and Order of DeMolay

"As the 37th International Master Councilor, Order of DeMolay, it gives me great and personal pleasure to bring to this Supreme Council, 33°, the enthusiastic greetings of the thousands of active DeMolays throughout the world. We all sincerely appreciate the truly phenomenal support we receive from the Scottish Rite of the Southern Jurisdiction. DeMolay continues to exist because our beloved Masonic family believes in our cause, our purposes, and our high ideals. As an organization of young men, we are truly blessed with a great heritage—the ideals, ritual, and leadership excellence given to us by the Masonic Fraternity, the most respected association of men in the world. ... , a lapel pin with the DeMolay and Scottish Rite emblems fused, showing the special relationship our organizations share and enjoy. "- Peter W. Brusoe’s remarks on October 6 to the Supreme Council, 33°

Freemasonry And Catholicism

"The writer is not a Mason, and thus he is free to say what he knows without fear of violating obligations, but he is a Mason at heart, and therefore frankly opposed to Catholicism."–FREEMASONRY AND CATHOLICISM by Max Heindel 1865-1919 pg 6
