Bodies & Degrees

Mithras Lodge of Perfection
Jose-Luis Izursa, 32°, KCCH
2023 Venerable Master

The 4th through 14th degrees are called Ineffable Degrees because their principal purpose is the investigation and contemplation of the ineffable name of Deity. Following each of degrees listed below, we have provided a brief statement of the moral teachings found in its lecture.

 

Evangelist Chapter of Rose Croix
Dominador S. Carreon, 32° KCCH
2023 Wise Master

The degrees of the Chapter of Rose Croix are very complex. They attempt to invest the candidate with a deeper understanding of Religion, Philosophy, Ethics, and History. The intellectual challenges presented in these degrees are times overwhelming and can take years to master.

 

Robert de Bruce Council of Kadosh
Hugues Nkamwa, 32°
2023 Commander

The degrees of the Council of Kadosh are chivalric and philosophical, but also contain mystical material. The word “Kadosh” is a Hebrew word meaning “Holy”. The complexity of these degrees cannot be overstated and is exemplified by the number of pages attributed to them in Morals and Dogma.

 

Albert Pike Consistory
Stephen P. Higdon, 32°
2022 Venerable Master of Kadosh

The Consistory Degrees are very different from all the preceding degrees. They attempt to illustrate the creation of the ideal balance between the spiritual and the temporal.
