What reading level is The Symbolism of Freemasonry Electronic Resource Illustrating And Explaining book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. 54 BACCHUS. One of the appellations of the " many-named" god Dionysus. The son of Jupiter and Semele was to the Greeks Dionysus, to the Romans Bacchus. . . . 46 BARE FEET. A symbol of reverence when both feet are uncov- ered. Otherwise the symbolism is modern ; and from the ritualistic explanation which is given in the first degree, it would seem to require that the single bare foot should be interpreted as the symbol of a covenant. . . . 125 BLACK. Pythagoras called this color the symbol of ...the evil principle in nature. It was equivalent to darkness, which is the antagonist of light. But in masonic symbolism the interpretation is different. There, black is a symbol of grief, and always refers to the fate of the temple-builder. . 154 BRAHMA. In the mythology of the Hindoos there is a trimurti, or trinity, the Supreme Being exhibiting himself in three manifestations ; as, Brahma the Creator, Vishnu the Pre- 324 SYNOPTICAL INDEX.
server, and Siva the Destroyer, the united godhead being a symbol of the sun 28 Brahma was a symbol of the rising sun, Siva of the sun at meridian, and Vishnu of the setting sun.
