Inner Worlds?

[maat]

This question, when posed on another forum, drew great response.

Do you generally feel there is something mystical or religious about a Masonic Lodge when it is open for business?

Or

Do you look at it like a training tool to create a better you?

Certainly when we are doing RItual, as opposed to the 'business end' of the meetings, I have found an amazing range of emotions, from sublime peace to hightened senses to chilling thrills. It really depended upon the moment and also the others in the Lodge at the time.

I can definitely say that in our lodge it is the Mystical (or religious) type of experience. We also have the occasional odd things happen which reinforce the notion that we are not alone in lodge and that whatever it is is benevolent... and has a sense of humour.

Some of the odd things are seen/heard in the physical and others, I think are perceived only by the Bro experiencing it, so is most likely and Inner World experience being bought to mind's eye.
