Dialogue with the Disowned: The Second Person as Masonic Practice

08 Aug 2025

Description

Some voices within us remain silent—not because they have nothing to say, but because we’ve decided not to listen. In this episode, we explore the act of speaking from the perspectives we disown: parts of ourselves, others we reject, or emotions we avoid.By adopting the second person in writing and speech, we create space for these exiled parts to speak—not to justify or accuse, but to be heard. This episode offers a practical framework for building internal bridges through symbolic dialogue, one that honors Masonic principles of reflection, connection, and repair.🔑 Key TakeawaysWriting in the second person allows compassionate perspective-takingDisowned parts of ourselves often hold essential emotional truthSymbolic dialogue is a Masonic act of healing and re-integration💬 Featured Quotes“The person you dislike may still be right.”  [00:00:16]“Write from the perspective of the person you can’t talk to.” [00:01:10]“There’s a version of you that can speak like them.” [00:01:35]“It’s hard to stay angry while writing with empathy.” [00:02:13]
