A member of the Grand Lodge of Russia Bogdanov spoke about admission to Masons: recommendations are needed 
Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Russia Andrei Bogdanov told how people are accepted to Masonic organizations. He noted that he is trying to destroy the stereotype according to which Masons are associated with secrecy and secrecy. His words are quoted by “Gazeta.Ru”.
“To join the order, you need to have two recommendations from the Master Masons. If applications come online, there are no two recommendations. Then four, five, six people talk to the candidate – brothers from the lodge. And if two masters recommend this person, then he is allowed to be questioned under a bandage, “Bogdanov said.
Then the person is taken to the meeting with his eyes closed, where he will be interviewed by all those present. The list of questions is extensive: from personal to philosophical. Then the candidate is taken out, and the lodge holds a secret ballot. The head of the lodge noted that if three people from the lodge vote against, the candidacy is rejected.
According to Bogdanov, women are not accepted into regular Freemasonry. This happens because the order is a conservative organization.
He noted that the Grand Lodge is mainly engaged in charity work, and also seeks to spread knowledge.
Earlier, Andrei Bogdanov appreciated the emergence of 5G communications in Russia … He stated that members of the Masonic brotherhood support progress in Russia in all forms and welcome the emergence of the 5G network in the country.
