"Freemasonry
is a modern perpetuation of great systems of initiation that have
existed for the spiritual instruction of men in all parts of the world
since the beginning of time. The reason for their existence has been the
obvious one, resulting from the cardinal truth that man in his present
natural state is inherently and radically imperfect; that sooner or
later he becomes conscious of a sense of loss and deprivation and feels
an imperative need of learning how to repair that loss."
