According to Brother Oswald Wirth, Freemasonry aims at the moral and material improvement of man, as a foundation for the law of humanity's progress and the philosophical ideas of tolerance, brotherhood, equality, and freedom, excluding religious laws, nationalities, and social perceptions.

It is not a secret society, as in countries where it is not persecuted, it publishes its objectives, its regulations, its works, a list of its members, the places and dates of its meetings, etc.

The only secrets of Freemasonry are its symbols and their explanations, in order to achieve the intended purpose.

Brother Oswald Wirth, having studied Alchemy and the Hermetic Sciences, recognized the relationships that exist between them and Freemasonry and presents this in the study that we further publish.
