共济会,字面之意为“自由石匠”(英语:Free-Mason)全称为“Free and Accepted Masons",出现在18世纪的英国,是一种带宗教色彩的兄弟会组织,也是目前世界上最庞大的秘密组织。那我们今天共同探讨下我所听闻或知道的共济会。

第一次听到这个组织是来自油管上。据不知情报到说这个组织是由许多经济大佬,商业巨头,政治要人,科学家,明星,作家,甚至中情局的也都参与其中。其中大小布什很可能也是其中的成员。我还看到了一个新闻关于川普的。他在其中竞选时直言说:共济会中十三个元老都是我的牧师。这不禁让我产生了疑问,共济会到底是什么啊?下面就简单介绍下:共济会,字面之意为“自由石匠”(英语:Free-Mason)全称为“Free and Accepted Masons",出现在18世纪的英国,是一种带宗教色彩的兄弟会组织,也是目前世界上最庞大的秘密组织。以上是比较官方的介绍,下面是我在一些文章中看到的结合我的了解来为大家介绍下更深的秘密。

(1)如何加入共济会:首先我想告诉您在中国您无法加入共济会。因为在中国没有这个组织。最早在台湾出现过。不过现在已经解散了。以下为英文翻译。我在此简单翻译了一下。以英国为例,你需要一个bighotel,并成为其中一员,这些人被称为泥瓦匠。每个国家都拥有大bighotel 。而且还需要加入一个叫ugle的amity。并且,当地分会会与你联系,接下来有面试及在入会前需要缴费年费。但它很难获得资格。下面有链接。不是太懂。那么今天就简单介绍下,下篇我还会出关于这个主题的文章望观看。

The truth is, the way to join is basically the same everywhere in the World. Based on your question I have no idea where you are from, so I will answer in the broader sense.

You need to be the one doing the work, you need to reach out and contact a lodge.

It is a long road

There are a multitude of Grand Lodges, with some in your country, and as such I would caution you to only seek out one that is in amity with the Grand Lodge of England. This simply because the members of those lodges who not in amity, are not seen as Masons by their peers throughout the world.

It is said that to him that knocks the doors will be opened, however, nowadays you can use a phone.

There is Grand Lodges in every country, and I would suggest making contact with the District Grand Secretary that can put you in touch with a local lodge. To this effect I include the list of Grand Lodges in amity by the UGLE and urge you to make contact. The secretary of the Grand Lodge should put you in touch with a local lodge (if any).

UGLE Districts and Regions Overseas

If you have are in any of the UGLE districts please look here (to see if you are):

Districts & Groups

Grand Lodges in Amity with UGLE

If you are not, then you can have a look at the grand lodges on the list that is in Amity with the UGLE (not under it as some Masons say). Just meaning these are Grand Lodges in your area, that stand on their own, but is generally accepted by other Freemasons world wide.

You can have a look for here:

Foreign Grand Lodges

From here it is up to you to make final contact, and it will include an interview (of varying levels of formality). Also, as a young man I remember money was not always as easy to come by. Thus know that there is an initiation fee that goes towards paperwork, certificates, and varying other things. There is also a yearly membership fee that is payable in advance before initiation.

Friendly caution

But be warned that Masonry it is not for everyone, and trust me, unfortunately it is not as accessible as it should be everywhere in the world.

Some of our very good friends, who live as kings in an island paradise, has made the joining fees deliberately high to keep out those looking to join, who do so for the wrong reasons, like looking to start their careers, or those looking to join for business opportunities.

Yet, this unfortunately also makes it impossible for young interested candidates, who are considered the future of Freemasonry in the world, to join, as they rightfully should.
