How old are you? I too had hopes of looking into the mason community, but you have to be 21, and I'm 3 years off (IMG:
style_emoticons/default/13.gif). Are any lodges of any of these orginazations around your area? Best bet would be to work with what's near you. I know of no other lodge from any organization, and no teacher so I'm personaly doomed to self teaching myself. lol. The GD confuses the hell out of me, and might be a bit overwhelming to you, and the O.T.O is alright I guess, if you have money to give unless you don't want to advance. If you're in cali go look for thaibon, and the OTA, lol..Goodluck with everything.
