This massive work includes ALL the Scottish Rite "Liturgies" (monitors) prepared for the current rituals of the Supreme Council 33°, SMJ. Lavishly illustrated with diagrams of the aprons, jewels and symbols of the degrees, the texts of these works contain verbatim extracts from the current rituals of the Scottish Rite. Some portions of these books (such as the "Lecture and History" of the thirteenth°) are not even included in the official rituals. Extremely interesting and informative, students of the rituals may compare this work with the Magnum Opus to trace the evolution of the degrees. Highly recommended.

A Monument of Esoterica,
By A Customer
This review is from: Liturgies of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry (Pt. 2-4) (Paperback)
Pike's works in general have fallen on bad times: even many Masons today are not intellectually prepared to read and understand Pike's works, whether Morals & Dogma or this fundamental one of the Liturgies of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite. Masons who do not know their own craft are not able to defend it properly. As a scholar on Esoterica, having published on classical literature and Christian mysticism, and more importantly, as a 32º Scottish Rite Mason, I appreciate and value this work above most all other Masonic writings. It is essential reading for any Mason of the Higher Degrees who presumes to understand the meaning of the rituals he may only see once a year, and then, unfortunately, in abbreviated form.
