Grande Loja Legal De Portugal/Glrp

The great rule of morality is expressed in the first condition that a candidate must be accepted into the Masonic Order[2]: he must be free and of good morals. The candidate must go through this sieve. You can only request initiation if your journey and profile in an ungodly and pre-Masonic life are judged and confirmed by the practice of good customs. On September 16, a meeting of representatives of regular Masonic enterprises from Portuguese-speaking countries will be held in Lisbon, an initiative that the organization says aims to strengthen relationships and help small structures grow. The sound morality of Freemasons is elevated by this requirement to the nature of a great universal structuring pillar of Freemasonry. In fact, when obediences that assume different religious and philosophical tendencies coexist, there is no news that there is an obedience that explicitly deviates from the requirement that its members be considered good morals. Good customs have always passed, which is necessary for the passage “between the columns”. Addressing Lusa, the Grand Master of the Legal Grand Lodge of Portugal (GLLP), Armindo Azevedo, explained that this meeting aims to strengthen the cohesion of the institution in Portuguese-speaking countries and share the experiences of each company. The Observer contacted the Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Portugal/GLRP, the socialist mayor Júlio Meirinhos, who sent statements to the organization`s main post, Paulo Noguês. When Paulo Noguês was contacted by the Observer, he preferred not to comment. 24.

In June 1717, three London stores and one Westminster store united at the Goose and Gridiron brewery on the churchyard of St. Paul`s Church to form the Grand Lodge of London and Westminster. Currently, among the Portuguese-speaking African countries (PALOP), only Mozambique has a large independent company, but there are other structures in Guinea-Bissau, Cape Verde, Angola and São Tomé and Príncipe. “The growth of regular Freemasonry, as evidenced by the advent of more business in Portuguese-speaking Africa, is proof that people are looking for answers and maintaining the will to build a better world, even in the most economically fragile regions,” explained the Grand Master. In 1989, the district of the Portuguese French Grand Lodge (GLNF) was created, which included three Portuguese stores. After two years, in 1991, the Grande Boutique Regular du Portugal (GLRP) was founded by GLNF, and Fernando Teixeira was installed as the first grandmaster. [4] At the time of its foundation, the GLRP had about 150 Freemasons and aimed to restore for Portugal the Masonic regularity that the great Lusitanian Orient had lost at the beginning of the 20th century. The meeting aims to strengthen the cohesion of the institution within the Lusophonic countries and to exchange the experiences of each company. The court of the Legal Grand Lodge of Portugal/GLRP, the regular Portuguese Freemasonry, expelled three of its members after they tried to introduce a Portuguese rite into the businesses they operated, the Observer found. The three Freemasons had been suspended since October, when disciplinary proceedings were initiated against them for ignoring the rules of the Masonic organization. Morality and ethics in Freemasonry are not a theoretical or methodological specialty concerning morality and ethics in general. But on a pragmatic and institutional level, the aforementioned circumstance that Freemasonry, especially in Portugal, has assumed the moral quality of its members as a great universal structuring pillar brings with it an increased obligation for all Freemasons to reconcile their lives and actions with demanding moral standards.

We emphasize that the purpose of the Order emphasizes the constant improvement of man and all humanity through wisdom, strength and beauty. In 2000, at the request of the municipality of Cascais/Pelouro de Cultura, it organized the international symposium “Fernando Pessoa, Esoterismo and Aleister Crowley”, in which the great academic specialists of esotericism and “new religious movements”, Antoine Faivre, Massimo Introvigne and Gordon Melton, as well as the locals Maria Aliette Galhós, Manuela Parreira da Silva and Filipe Luis Teixeira, participated, among others. He holds a PhD in Cultural and Social Anthropology from the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities of the U.S. N.L., where he will defend his doctoral thesis in the field of new magico-religious movements in 2004. Many of these companies were founded by members with a strong connection to Portugal, but the structures “developed through local structures”. In routine business, several rites are used, but the creation of a new rite does not seem to have been well received.
