Shrouded by MYSTERY, MISINFORMATION, and CONSPIRACY, Freemasonry remains one of the least understood organizations of all time. Currently with over six million members worldwide, the brotherhood has included some of the most powerful men in history. Who are the FREEMASONS? While it is true that modern Freemasonry bears some similarity to ancient organizations by way of their initiation rituals, symbolism, and philosophy, there really is no substantiating proof that it is directly related to any of them. One thing we can say with certainty is that as Western culture and influence penetrated the far corners of the world, Freemasons were notably at the forefront, ushering in rapid change, modernization, and enlightenment. Was this merely coincidental, or was it by design?Find out in Asia’s Masonic Reformation.
