Rituals of the Swedenborgian Rite of Masonry is a book that explores the secret and intriguing world of the Swedenborgian Rite of Masonry. Written by an anonymous author, the book provides a detailed description of the rituals and practices of this little-known Masonic order. The Swedenborgian Rite of Masonry is a branch of Freemasonry that is heavily influenced by the teachings of the Swedish philosopher and theologian Emanuel Swedenborg. The book delves into the history and philosophy of the Swedenborgian Rite, as well as the initiation ceremonies, degrees, and other rituals that are performed by its members. It provides a fascinating insight into the beliefs and practices of this unique Masonic order, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the esoteric traditions of Freemasonry.The Swedenborgian Rite was revived in the United States and Canada by Brother Samuel Beswick. It consists of three elaborate and beautiful ceremonies for which the Craft is required. A Supreme Grand Lodge and Temple for Great Britain and Ireland was chartered by Brother Colonel W. J. B. McLeod Moore, 33rd Degree, andc., of the Canadian body, on 1st October, 1875, with Brother John Yarker as G.M. A Charter has recently been issued by this country for a body in Paris, and previously to Roumania and Egypt, John Yarker, �������The Arcane Schools.' We learn from Liber LII, The Manifesto of the O.T.O. (Equinox III: I:197-198), that the Swedenborgian Rite was 16th in a list of 18 bodies which contributed its wisdom to this august order. Its rituals provide an esoteric reinterpretation of the Craft degrees. This book includes all three degrees.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
