To
All the Regional Grand Masters! Regional Grand Secretaries
and Secretaries of all daughter Lodges
Dear Sir and RNIW.Bro.
|
|
Subject: 1. Proecedure for closing
of the Volumes of Sacred Laws in Lodges.
2. Display of National Flag
|
|
It has come to the notice that the Volumes of the Sacred
Laws kept at the Altar of some of the Lodges are not
in good condition due to frequent use. It is very necessary
that the Volumes of Sacred Laws are properly bound and
give a neat appearance on the altar.
oreover, it has been observed that often these Volumes
of Sacred Laws are opened arbitrarily and attempt is
then made them to flatten them on the Altar, so that
they stay in place, which is not desirable. It has been
suggested that proper book marks made of paper or silk
of suitable size may be used for opening the Volumes
of Sacred laws properly at pre specified pages, so that
these books do not get damaged while opening and closing
and flattening them on the Altar at different pages
on different occasion. Accordingly all concerned are
requested to take immediate steps to ensure that the
Volumes of Sacred Laws are proper bound and neatly kept
on the Altar and propel procedure is followed in opening
them. Further, after the closing of the Volumes of Sacred
Laws it is a good practice to place the Square and Compasses
neatly above the book and not to leave them inside.
The Grand Lodge of India has already issued a circular
No.71/12 dated 9th March 2005 about the need for mandatory
display of National Flag. After the Lodge meeting is
closed the brethren should turn facing the Flag and
sing the National Anthem. It has come to notice that
many Lodges are yet to display the National Flag in
their temples. It may please be ensured that the National
Flag is in suitably displayed in the Lodge behind the
W.M. on his right side and then the brethren standing
to attention facing the flag sing the National Anthem.
With greetings,
