Studies in the USA are available via mail for students outside of the reach of the existing Lodges.

Martinism does not proselytize, but is always ready to listen. It is rather easy to enter the Order, but it is more difficult to dedicate your life to the study and practice of the Path. Although Martinism makes use of certain terms and symbols which one encounters in Freemasonry, Martinism is not anymore assimilated into Freemasonry, even though history has shown the narrow and fraternal connection uniting Martinists and the Freemasons. Likewise, Martinism is not a secret society. It is simply closed to the undisciplined, those incapable of following the discipline which the Path imposes, to the whimsical and to the figurants.
