Most Illustrious Grand Master, Larry Canada, welcomes you to the Official Web Site of The Grand Council of Royal and Select Master of Texas.. Please take your time while browsing our pages and come back as often as you like. Telling you about Masonry in general, and York Rite Masonry in particular is our goal. If you have an interest in joining our great fraternity, contact any York Rite member. He'll be glad to provide you with a petition for the degrees of York Rite Masonry and help you fill it out. The only requirement is that you be a Master Mason in good standing with your local Masonic Lodge.

Why A Select Master?
It is a peculiarity of the York Rite, whether intended or not by its authors, that the movement of the degrees is often historically reversed; so that as we apparently go forward in regular progression, the knowledge and light gained reflect backward upon the path we have traveled before, and degrees that seemed complete when we took them are found to require the explanation of the subsequent degrees before they can be fully understood. This is especially true of the Cryptic degrees, two of which historically precede the Royal Arch Mason degree, but which hold in reserve their valuable teachings until the candidate is ready to receive them with the most impressive effect. The term Cryptic Masonry stems from the fact that a central feature of the Royal and Select degrees is an underground chamber or vault.
