What we’re about
This group meets monthly to discuss subjects of import to humanity. From philosophy and religion to science, history, and politics, this study center presents, discusses and debates a variety of subjects in the hope of gaining a better understanding of ourselves and the universe around us. By meeting and discussing important ideas and issues, we grow in understanding, tolerance, and wisdom.
The Masonic Philosophical Society was created by Universal Freemasonry to promote the eradication of ignorance in all its forms. Any person who is a freethinker, tolerant and open, and who seeks rational discourse is invited to attend and learn more about oneself, the world, the universe, and Freemasonry.
Mission Statement
The Masonic Philosophical Society embraces the concept of learning, not for school, but for life, and believes that all men, who seek it, deserve access to continued education. We further embrace the concept of a community environment, where ideas can be shared and debated in an open forum. From the seven liberal arts to the arcane, we seek to gain and to share the knowledge that is the legacy of mankind.

"Is the Universe Established on the Opposing Energies of Yin and Yang?"
Bellflower Masonic Lodge, 9813 Beach Blvd., Bellflower, CA, USDecember's study will be conducted by Bro. Amanda Bush as he asks the question, "Is the Universe Established on the Opposing Energies of Yin and Yang?"
Synopsis:
In many spiritual conceptions of the Universe, matter is emanated from one point or thought into two opposing energies. From the two opposing energies is begat matter. Consider the cosmologies of the I Ching, Daoism, Hermeticism, Gnosticism, the Qabalah and the Book of
Genesis. A Masonic Lodge being a representation of the Universe, is also a Universal cosmology, driven by the principle of duality. Today’s discussion will consider the role that opposing energies play in the origin stories of those cosmologies.
