1) Are you prepared and the "master" has not yet appeared before
your eyes to reveal to you all the secrets of the Universe? So
Martinism is not your best choice. In our fraternity there are no
"gurus" or infallible leaders, we do not advocate any religious
dogma. For the Martinist the Master is within himself, for we are all
children of the same Father.
2) Are you convinced that all your personal efforts, all dedication to
the Brotherhood, should be minimally rewarded with perks, medals,
and pompous titles? So Martinism is not your best choice! In Our
fraternity after decades of study, practice, mistakes, and success you
will learn to be an Incognito, just one more in the crowd, without
recognition, without distinction and without any social
aggrandizement.
Who has the power to transform your life and the lives of your family
members is yourself, or rather, their acts and their examples. It would
do no good for a fraternity to offer you knowledge, practice, and
spiritual balance if you did not put all this into practice. Therefore,
Martinism will require of you more than study and dedication, it will
require that you practice what you have learned.
7) Do you expect that at the end of years of study, and upon reaching
the highest degrees, you will have the right to use a fuzzy and
incomprehensible title to the "profane"? Know that the highest degree
of the Martinist Fraternity consists of two letters and 6 points,
nothing more than this! And even more disheartening, Martinism is
inexhaustible and even after decades of dedication there will always
be something to learn.
10) Do you rate promises and oaths more or less serious according to
the moment, the occasion, and the sobriety of the moment that made
you? So you will not be a good Martinist. The most austere and
demanding judge must be our own conscience, if you can not keep an
oath to yourself, how do you expect to fulfill the oaths made on the
soil consecrated by our predecessors? Make a simple self-test, an oath
to yourself, an oath that our Beloved Master Philippe de Lion charged
of all his attendants: "speak no evil to anyone in the next 10 days" if
you fulfill this promise, you will know that you can take more serious
oaths.
If after reading and understanding the above 10 reasons, you still feel
an uncontrollable desire to join your Light to our Light, great, you can
continue your quest, find your way, as we are sure that the path of the
heart is hopelessly contained in your Soul.
Always and Always for the Glory of Ieschouah, the Great Architect of
the Universe!
