Complex yet Engaging!

If you are a student of Freemasonry then you really must have this book in your library. A truly rare and astonishing find.

A Great Ritual!

I was so happy to have found this scarce work of the 33rd degree of Freemasonry. This makes a fascinating read for Freemasons or anyone interested in Freemasonry.

Secret Ritual of the Thirty-Third Degree

A short twenty page booklet.Between the covers of this booklet one can find light. The booklet describes the secret ritual of the Thirty-Third degree of Freemasonry. This is not light reading, but extremely interesting from a historical perspective! After reading the booklet the reader is still hoodwinked, so to speak. Only the Thirty-third Degree brother knows the truth, and he isn't talking.Those in the Fraternity of Freemasonry are aware of the Degree, but most know very little about it. Those on the outside know even less.This book early on, makes the statement that descriptions of two versions of the Degree are included, but also includes a disclaimer that neither of the two rituals are used by the legitimate Supreme Council 33d Degree of the United States, or the Supreme Council 33 Degree for England and Wales.Few Freemasons are aware of, or will admit to the role of the Knights Templars in the history of Freemasonry, instead choosing to believe in the myth of Stone Mason Guilds as the origin of Freemasonry. Freemasonry has been around much, much longer than that!The underlying theme of the Degree is vengeance directed against the arch-foes of the Templars: The Knights of Malta; the Pope; Phillip the Fair, King of France; and other Orders of Catholic Knighthood.The Names of Frederick II and Louis of Burbon are mentioned as the originators of this Degree.
