The Master Mason Series – Part III: The Workman and the Work
Manage episode 519444374 series 3686845
At the philosophical level, the Master Mason transcends the separation between creator and creation. In this final episode, we explore the systemic view of mastery — where the craftsman and the craft are one. Here, the act of creation becomes a dialogue with the universe itself, a cooperation between consciousness and form. The Master Mason does not merely shape the world; he participates in its unfolding.
🔑 Key Takeaways
- Systemic mastery dissolves the divide between subject and object — the worker and the work.
- True creation is participatory: a unitive experience of cooperation with the greater whole.
- The Master Mason’s wisdom is non-dual awareness — the realization that being and doing are the same act.
