The HRA ritual of Le Droit Humain

LDH does tend to have more than one Ritual and as I found in our Mark, we have one the Keystone Ritual which is quite close to the Malecraft Ceremony but another which is more "Spiritual" . Rose Croix in LDH is the same in this regard as is HRA. I will, hopefully if I can make it, be attending an HRA Exaltation on Thursday this week at Hexagon House , Surbiton so will be able to compare and contrast this with the Malecraft Domatic and Aldersgate HRA Rituals I already have experienced in the past.

I don't know if your LDH Federation works like mine here in the UK, but we have a time scale to progress from EA to MM, then there is a further period , I think 1 year, Bro Cora could confirm, before one can be Advanced into Mark which is necessary in our system before after another designated period one can be Exalted into HRA, so you have plenty of time.

Hearty Good Wishes Bro Ola.

According to the British LDH website, this working is "not based on a documentary historical past", and I found another site saying that is was very different from the "normal" HRA workings used by UGLE etcetera. Without giving anything away, can somebody clarify this a bit? Is it still essentially "the same degree", so to speak? As I said, I am of course a very long way from HRA, but my historical interest in Masonry (which runs back many years) still makes me curious. And please move this thread if it's in the wrong location. / Bro.

If you do witness the exaltation and feel you can say anything about the relationship between the versions, it would be highly interesting - if you can't, I fully understand :) . Concerning the time scale, it seems to be the same in the Scandinavian Federation: the way from EA to MM is said to take an average of about 3 years, and then it goes on in the manner you described. all the best, Bro.

Of course, I do not want any details - I am not trying to find out contents of degrees that are "ahead of me". ----------------------- 3rd degree, International Order of Co-Freemasonry Le Droit Humain - Scandinavian Federation Lodge Odin, Nr. 743 My blog, "Dead Tongues Whispering"

Our Order did belong to LDH until a few years ago, when we left LDH and became part of the Eastern Order of International Co-Freemasonry - even though we changed Head Offices our ritual has never changed. Having said that the HRA is a most beautiful degree and OLA when the time and opportunity comes along do join it - HGW Whistler Eastern order of International Co-freemasonry Auckland New Zealand ^{"Truth All truths are Truths of Period and not truths for eternity. What has been truth for the time was and is as good as men are capable of receiving}
