What do you think about V.I.T.R.I.O.L.?

Dear Brothers, receive a fraternal greeting.

In the Chamber of Reflections, a very special word (acronym) is written, known to all initiates. That word is V.I.T.R.I.O.L.

Although V.I.T.R.I.O.L. has its own meaning, the true meaning of this acronym, is given by each Initiate.

What do you think about V.I.T.R.I.O.L.?

Thanks in advance for reading this message.



T:.A:.F:. - S:.F:.U:. (Spanish).

What do I think? It is like a road sign. It’s value lies not in the information it contains but in the journey one might take based on its instruction.

You answer is very good. The meaning of V.I.T.R.I.O.L is given by each Initiate, based in each experience.

It’s fairly simple; the answers you seek are within you.

This is perfect. I think as well that the symbols are ambiguous on purpose. Each person puts their own work into it, and gets a different meaning out of it. In the end, when you're done with that "interpretive journey", the value isn't in the meaning that you derive. Often that meaning doesn't connect to other people, because they're different people. The value is in the work that you put into it. That's a form of gained self-knowledge.
