Scottish Rite
The Scottish Rite is one of the branches of Freemasonry, an organization that uses ritual and symbolism to teach moral and ethical lessons. It expands upon the teachings of the first three degrees of Freemasonry, offering additional degrees that explore themes like compassion, justice, and enlightenment. Members participate in rituals and ceremonies that convey these ideals. The Scottish Rite is known for its elaborate ceremonies and is often involved in philanthropic efforts. It aims to foster personal development, community service, and a deeper understanding of Masonic principles among its members.
