How to Become a Mason
How does one become a Freemason?
Usually by asking a Freemason. It is a general rule, in Korea as well as in most other countries, that a Freemason will not solicit men for membership.
Frequently Asked Questions
Freemasonry is an organized society of men, Symbolically applying the principles of Operative Masonry and architecture to the science and art of character building. The aim is to build a better world by building better men to work in their own communities. What is Freemasonry?
Freemasonry is the world’s largest secular, fraternal and charitable organization. It teaches moral lessons and self-knowledge through participation in a progression of allegorical two-part plays.
For many years Freemasons have followed three great principles:
Brotherly Love – Every true Freemason will show tolerance and respect for the opinions of others and behave with kindness and understanding to his fellow creatures.
Relief – Freemasons are taught to practice charity, and to care, not only for their own, but also for the community as a while, both by charitable giving, and by voluntary efforts and works as individuals.
Truth – Freemasons strive for truth, requiring high moral standards and aiming to achieve them in their own lives.
What is the Purpose of Freemasonry?
Simply put, the overall purpose of Masonry is to provide a way to help each member become a better person. The fraternity places emphasis on the individual by:
Strengthening his character
Improving his moral and spiritual outlook
Broadening his mental horizons
What are the Qualifications for Membership?
An applicant must believe in a Supreme Being. Freemasonry does not provide any further definition; the nature of that Being must be determined by the applicant himself.
The applicant must be an upright man of good moral character and be at least twenty one years old.
He must not have a criminal record and must be a peaceable citizen, loyal to his country and its laws.
He must be able to meet his financial commitments to his family before those to Freemasonry.
