Brethren, thanks to the Michigan Masonic Museum we at Dover Lodge proudly present a speech given by Brother Gerald Ford upon receipt of honors given by the Fraternity. Brother Ford was the 38th President of the United States of America.Our apologies for the audio quality, but given its age we believe you will find it relatively well preserved. Enjoy!
“When I think of the things right about America, I think of this Order.” – Brother Ford

The wait has been long, but we are back with our 12th installment of the Dover Masonic Podcast! In this episode we delve into the fourth great hermetic principle, Polarity. In this 10th chapter of The Kybalion, we learn that opposites are not different, but rather the same and only vary in degree along a scale. This chapter serves as the basis for the remainder of this great esoteric work. Enjoy!
Please note: we hope you will forgive the audio quality of the vocal portion of the recording. This episode was recorded in a different space, and therefore differs from prior episodes. We hope however that this will not distract the listener from the mood and content!

This ninth chapter of ‘The Kybalion’ marks a transition to the molecular and atomic levels of matter, being the first rungs on a ladder to the esoteric spiritual Hermetic concepts. Join us as we climb!

As also mentioned in today’s podcast, download and read Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton’s “Zanoni” here. This excellent book will likely be a future reading on the Dover Lodge Masonic Podcast. From Wikipedia,here is a brief description of the book:
This piece of literature describes a fascinating story of love and occult aspiration. The plot is as follows: Zanoni, timeless Rosicrucian brother, falls in love with Viola Pisani, promising young and beautiful singer, daughter of Pisani, misunderstood violinist in Italy. Glyndon, English gentleman loves Viola as well but his spiritual growth sees Zanoni as a master. The story develops in the days of the French Revolution in 1789.

Episode 9 of the Dover Masonic Lodge Podcast comes after a month-long wait, but it is a very interesting chapter in The Kybalion! In this episode, we cover Chapter 7 and have made it halfway through this interesting and controversial masterpiece. As we cover “The All in All”, it may be of benefit to listen to this chapter a couple of times, as the material is increasing in esoteric depth.
