Turning the Hiram Key invites readers to join a gripping journey of discovery to find the real secrets of Freemasonry. Robert Lomas - co-author of best-selling The Hiram Key - has finally tackled the big unanswered questions about The Brotherhood.
What is the purpose of Freemasonry?
What do Masons gain from working the Rituals?
Can anybody benefit from the spiritual teachings of The Craft?
Does Freemasonry hold the secret to unlocking the hidden potential of the human mind?
Are Masonic rituals simple moral plays designed to encourage people to behave well?
Are they a secret tradition preserved from a long lost civilisation? Are they meaningless formalities? Or do they serve a deeper purpose?
In this ground-breaking new book Lomas describes his personal journey through the mystical rituals of Freemasonry. Drawing from personal spiritual insights, hidden Masonic texts and modern scientific knowledge, he reveals why people join Freemasonry, what they expect to find and how they benefit. Turning the Hiram Key also explores how these rituals have helped history's most accomplished men to reach their goals.
As Lomas explains, "Masonry is not a secular society. It is a house of the spirit. It is to be lived in the spirit as well as in the ritual. We who live it know that the sacred law of life itself, like our ceremonies that are dramatised images of that life, subjects us to repeated tests. Those who do not pass the tests remain self-inhibited from moving towards larger knowledge and deeper experience of that veiled at the centre of Masonic allegory.! This book will guide towards this mysterious Masonic centre.
