Today here in Brazil I will visit a public gathering from Rosæ Crucis. I foung that they have a - I don't know! - lodge (?).
Is there some out there? Is it just like the masons? Secret and all?Only for the spiritual development?

I hope you found the meeting interesting.
Whether they have stumbled on some "hidden truth" or not remains to be seen.

The A.M.O.R.C. (home in San Jose, California) founded by H. Spencer Lewis, took many of its rituals from the Order of the Rose Cross. That was a Co-Masonic and Theosophist group founded by Annie Besant, Chas. Leadbeater, Wedgewood, and Marie Russak. When Marie Russak came back to the US, after the ORC was dissolved, she collaborated with Lewis. Lewis credits her many times in his writings. At the time, Marie Russak was a 32º Co-mason.
I would expect to see many of the same precepts to be the same as the present day Co-Masonry rites and perhaps some of the tenets of Theosophy.
