The Doctrine of Ratio: Nomothetes Rāmessesnakht

This is not a book, this is an artifact.

The candidate enters in darkness, passes between Boaz and Jachin, stands upon the pavement, and is told he has symbolically approached the Temple. Yet the rites once did more than represent — they examined. The Square, Compasses, Lights, Ashlar, and Ladder were not moral emblems but instruments by which reliability was determined before knowledge was entrusted.

The Doctrine of Ratio reconstructs the discipline beneath the Craft, drawing from temple instruction and Ramesside teaching to show that the degrees originally trained perception, not belief. The reader is led through the progression from observation, to measurement, to governance — learning to recognise proportion before consequence and stability before collapse. It exposes the claims of Egyptian Centric lodges and Orginal Egyptian Masonic claims.

What appears allegorical becomes exact; what appears ceremonial becomes practical. The symbols cease to inspire and begin to test.

This work does not reinterpret Masonry.

It restores the working plan from which it inherited its form.
