SCOTTISH RITE BULLETIN 3
From the Venerable Master
We’ve all heard the saying, “Bad things happen to good people”. I know, it’s not fair, but it’s
true. We’ve all seen it happen to ourselves or to
others, to friends, neighbors and perfect strangers.
If life is a journey, then we all at some point must
pass through the valley of the shadow of death. It’s
not a choice, it’s a fate!
I’d like to share with you ten principles I recently found labeled “The Laws of Adversity”. In
Many ways I feel Masonry and Scottish Rite are
mirrored in these laws and properly identified, we
can make them a positive force in our organization.
Law #1: Adversity is not optional; bad things
do happen to good people. “The ability to forgive
and the ability to love are the weapons God has
given us to live fully, bravely, and meaningfully in this less-than-perfect world.”
Law #2: You might not be able to choose whether or not you pass through the
valley of the shadow of death, but you do and can choose whether or not to take up
permanent residence down there in the darkness.
Law #3: We learn and grow more from our setbacks than we do from our successes. Adversity prepares you for bigger challenges and accomplishments in the
future.
Law #4: Surviving adversity is a great way to build self-confidence, and to
give you a more positive perspective on future adversity (if we survived that we can
survive anything!).
Law #5: Adversity helps prevent extreme arrogance, and complacency.
Law #6: When things aren’t working, it forces you to look at more creative solutions. There is opportunity hidden in every single adversity if you have the strength
and courage to search for it and to pursue it when you’ve found it.
Law #7: What you’ve fought to gain you’ll fight to keep and vice versa – easy
come, easy go – but what you had to fight to gain you will fight doubly hard to
retain.
Law #8: Without the valleys, you won’t appreciate the mountains.
Law #9: Adversity keeps teaching – it provides great stories! Your setbacks can,
if you’re committed to learning from them and teaching about them, be the source
of great learning for others.
Law #10: Adversity is a quiet teacher; you have to probe carefully for its lessons.
Let us think about how these ten laws can help shape Scottish Rite and offer
us ideas to improve ourselves and the betterment of our Valley. I look forward to
hearing your thoughts!
Fraternally,
Curtis Jack, 32° KCCH, Venerable Master

From the Wise Master
Brethren,
I hope that the MAD rush of the holidays
plus attending all of the different installations;
Scottish Rite, Blue Lodges, Eastern Star and
youth orders, is at last behind us and things will
settle down. Now maybe we can get back to doing our normal business and slow down the pace
of the past couple of months a little.

Because I’m a Mason.
A salesman breaks down in a remote country lane, a farmer in the
adjacent field comes over and they discover that they are “Brothers”.
The salesman is concerned as he has an important appointment in
the local town: “Don’t worry says the farmer you can use my car, I
will call a friend and get the car repaired while you go to the appointment”. Off goes the salesman and a couple of hours later he returns
but unfortunately the car is awaiting a part which won’t arrive until the
next morning. “It’s not a problem,” says the Farmer, “use my telephone
and re-schedule your first appointment tomorrow, stay with us tonight
and I’ll see that the car is done first thing!” The farmer’s wife prepares
a wonderful meal and they share a glass of fine single malt during an
excellent evening, the salesman sleeps soundly and when he awakes
there is his car, repaired and ready to go. After a full English breakfast the salesman thanks them both for the hospitality. As he and the
farmer walk to his car he turns and asks “my brother, thank you so
much but I have to ask, did you help me because I am a Mason?” “No”
was the reply, “I helped you because I am a Mason”.
SCOTTISH RITE BULLETIN 6
MASONRY AND ASTRONOMY
In earlier times, for example during Brother George Washington’s life and even
before him, the institution of Masonry made a point to impress upon the minds of all
new candidates that: ‘The proper business of a Mason is astronomical science,’ as
well as chemical, geological and moral science.
Unfortunately much of this astronomical knowledge has been pushed aside by
modern day Masonry so as to emphasize charity, performance of ritual for the sake of
performing ritual and fellowship. This has left very little time, if any, for encouraging its Brethren to seek out the answers of our ancient mysteries.
In truth, Freemasonry is built upon astronomical knowledge. The great loss of
Freemasonry is the true meaning of the building of Solomon’s Temple and the practice of the lodges should be that of the allegorical typification of the solar relations
and planetary motions with mental and moral cultivation. Therefore, it should be no
surprise that the three degrees of Craft Freemasonry have astronomical connection.
Even the furniture within a tiled lodge has or should have astronomical importance.
An example of how our Craft has drifted away from this tradition is in the astrological positioning of the pillars Jachin and Boaz in relation to each other.
The Masonic Temple reflects an astronomical layout. Its furniture should be
properly positioned according to the summer and winter solstice. Jachin marks the
northern extremity of the rising sun at the Summer Solstice and Boaz the southern
extremity of the rising sun at the Winter Solstice. But instead we take the reading of
the Bible literally. For example, 2 Chronicles 3:15-17 (especially verse 17): “And
he reared up the pillars before the temple, one on the right hand, and the other on the
left; and called the name of that on the right hand Jachin, and the name of that on the
left Boaz.”
But are you aware that Solomon’s Temple in Jerusalem faced east? And the entrance to the temple where the two pillars stood on the porch was from the east. That
meant the pillar Jachin is astronomically positioned north of the pillar Boaz. Herod’s
Temple was built to replicate Solomon’s Temple also had the pillar Jachin north of
Boaz. And in the 15th Century the building of Rosslyn Chapel by William St. Clair
was to reconstruct the Temple of Jerusalem in Scotland. Even though the entrance
was from the north, still the pillar Jachin is astronomically located north of the pillar
Boaz in the Rosslyn Chapel.
Since the 16th Century Jachin symbolizing wisdom/establishment is topped
with the globe of the spiritual world and Boaz symbolizing strength is topped with
the globe of the material world. You can identify the different globes by stars or the
zodiac on the spiritual globe and a map of the earth or darkness on the terrestrial
globe.
The next time you visit your Craft Lodge check it out. Where are your two pillars astronomically located in relationship to each other?
We as Masons should all embrace the idea that we are astronomers and masters
of light.

FROM THE CO-EDITOR
B.R. (Bernie) Hollenbeck, 33°
Over the last several years, thanks to the generosity of the Fresno Scottish Rite Scholarship Committee, we were able to annually award three $750.00
for scholarships to seniors at the Center for Advanced Research and Technology
(C.A.R.T.) School. This year we will again support this very worthwhile community event. Three superior students will be selected to receive the annual Fresno
Scottish Rite Bodies Scholarships by a panel of Scottish Rite members. This
panel will interview, review the records and select three very deserving students
for scholarship support. This scholarship is for their continuing education at the
college level. This year as in the past, it will only be possible to award three
scholarships, when the Scottish Rite Bodies scholarship fund is supplemented
by members, widows and friends who provide generous donations to support
this worthy cause. We are again asking those of you who can offer some level
of financial support to please send your contribution to the Scottish Rite Office. The opportunity to present the annual scholarships to deserving senior high
school students from the C.A.R.T. School over the last several years has been
a memorable and rewarding annual event at the May Stated meeting. This year
will surely be cause to again reflect on the greatness of the youth of this nation
and the generosity of the members of these Fresno Scottish Rite Bodies.

History of the SCOTTISH Rite
Jack V Farson, 33º
Emperors and Knights in France
Competition is the force that drives the world’s economies,
and it also seems to have driven Scottish Masonry in France,
which became part of jockeying for power within the Grand Lodge
of France. The Council of the Knights of the East, Sovereign Prince
Masons, was organized in 1756, and included in its government
middle-class Masons who had been excluded in previous High Degree ventures. It is not known how many degrees the Knights
worked, but they seem to have faded out around 1768–1779.
Coming on the heels of the Knights of the East in 1758 was
the Sovereign Council of Emperors of the East and of the West,
Sublime Scottish Mother Lodge. The Emperors attracted the upper class and nobility and competed with the knights in the number of degrees they offered. (Just from a marketing point of view
the newer group bested the older: “Emperors” are more powerful
than “Knights,” and “East and West” is twice an extensive as only
“East.”)
The Invention of Stephen Morin
In August 1761 Stephen Morin received a patent from the
Grand Lodge of France “authorizing and empowering him to establish perfect and sublime Masonry in all parts of the world, etc.,
etc.” Morin was a wine merchant from Bordeaux and set up business in Santo Domingo in what is now the Dominican Republic in
the Caribbean. Morin is little remembered for his wine business,
but his Masonic activities have gained him lasting fame.
It took Morin about 15 months to make it from France to Santo
Domingo, arriving in January 1763, because his ship was captured
by the English and he was taken to England. While we know that
he arrived with a patent of authority over the High Degrees, we
don’t know how many or which High Degrees he controlled! What
we do know is that he met a Dutch merchant, Henry Andrew
Francken, and made him a Deputy Inspector General sometime
between 1763 and 1767. Francken in turn traveled to Albany, New
York, and created there a Lodge of Perfection (4°–14°) in 1767.
In addition to creating the Albany Lodge of Perfection, Francken at least four times copied all of his degrees into books: 1771,
1783, and two undated versions. The “Francken Manuscripts” contain the earliest English versions of 21 degrees from 4°, “Secret
SCOTTISH RITE BULLETIN 11
Master,” to 25°, “The Royal Secret or Knights of St. Andrews—the
faithful guardians of the Sacred Treasure,” a 25-degree system
with the first three degrees conferred in Blue Lodges. This should
establish conclusively that Morin worked a system of 25 degrees,
right? Well, only if the degrees that Morin gave to Francken are
the same ones that he received in France!
There is growing evidence that Morin took whatever high degrees he had received in France and refashioned them into the
Order of the Royal Secret, creating additional degrees as needed.
The governing document, the “Constitutions of 1762,” has been
discovered by Masonic scholar Alain Bernheim to be a slightly
modified version of the constitution of the Grand Lodge of France.
Morin apparently acted to create a new Masonic body with himself
as the only “Grand Inspector.”

REGIONAL ORIENT MEMBERSHIP
AMBASSADOR’S MESSAGE
FEBRUARY 2013
Charity is the distinguishing grace of Freemasonry. Derived from the Latin
“caritas”, the word may also be translated as “love.” Love and charity equally grace and distinguish Freemasonry. A Freemason’s charity is not limited by
country or color, by distance or by religion. Instead a Freemason’s charity extends everywhere because it is central to his character as a member of our Masonic fraternity.
In fact, the essence of Masonry is character. Masonry not only teaches the
brotherhood of Masons, but also the brotherhood of men. Masonry is a broad
system of ethics, teaching the science of humanity, based upon the recognition
of these truths: we have a common origin, a common destiny and the Great
Architect of the Universe is the Father and Creator of us all. Out of those relationships grows the Brotherhood of Man.
Let us each endeavor to bring more men of good character into Masonry in
2013.

Wayne Towne’s Life Membership Obligation fulfilled
Congratulations to Gary Campbell, 32° KCCH: He is the first recipient of
a Life Membership - or “one-half” Life Membership, given by our late brother
Wayne Towne, 33°, to fulfill his obligation that was a condition of accepting this
gift. He selected Adan Bautista, 32° to receive the Life Membership. In this case
it was for a “one-half” Life Membership that was presented to Gary Campbell
in 2003 by Brother Wayne. Brother Adan has been contacted and he was very
happy and excited to have been selected.
As you recall, The Obligation: “During your lifetime you obligate yourself
to purchase a Lifetime Membership (or a “one-half” Life Membership) for a
Worthy Brother. It is preferred that this Lifetime Membership be for a Worthy
Brother 28 years of age or younger and that you also Obligate him as you have
been obligated . The Wishes of Brother Towne, 33° is that this gift and its obligation continue in perpetuity.” (Note that it is not required that the brother you
select be 28 years of age or younger)
Wayne stated giving Life Memberships at Scottish Rite in 2002. That year
he provided Life Memberships to 10 fifty year members.
In 2003 he purchased 10 one-half Life Memberships. This is the year that
brother Gary Campbell received his one-half Life Membership.
Since 2003 Brother Wayne purchased 34 Life Memberships. Each recipient
has accepted the Obligation above.

Heart of the Valley Assembly February 2013 Newsletter
Heart of the Valley Assembly kicked-off the New Year with fun and excitement. At its January 8th meeting, we had a Mystery Advisory Board Member
(Mrs. Jones) and Etiquette Training afterwards in the dining room. Believe me,
our Advisory Board Member, Mr. Regier, needed training!
On January 9th, HOV Charity, Makayla, delivered 50 bedside craft kits to
Children’s Hospital Central California to bring joy to children unable to leave
their room for crafts due to their illness.
On January 12, Heart of the Valley held initiation for 3 new members; Haleigh, Lexis and Analisa. What a wonderful initiation! Each and every officer
said their memory work clearly and proficiently! It was one of the nicest initiations in a long time. We even had Mr. Redman give a wonderful lamb skin apron
lecture! Good job, HOV! After initiation, we had a delicious lasagna lunch
provided by the Advisory Board.
We attended District 22 OES Official Visit of the Worthy Grand Matron and
Worthy Grand Patron on January 19th at Las Palmas Masonic Center. Worthy
Advisor Samantha Jones gave the Gavel Talk, Jobs Daughters performed their
Robe Ceremony and DeMolay Master Councilor Christian Titman performed a
traditional Indian Tribal Dance. After the Eastern Star Event, several of us traveled to Upland to attend California Rainbow’s Last Official Visit.
Heart of the Valley Assembly cordially invites you and your family to attend
its Installation of Officers on Saturday, February 2, 2013, 2 PM at the Clovis
Masonic Center.
