Between the end of October and the beginning of November, the need to reflect will reach one of its traditionally most intense moments for us, the moment of the Commemoration of the Dead ritual. It is a delicate and profound moment together - one that pushes us to meditate on the meaning of life and death, to better celebrate the first and honor the latter. For so many traditions, beyond just the Damanhurian, it is a period of introspection and remembrance. For Damanhur, this year will be particularly special because it will be the first time in which amongst the names of our deceased honored during the ritual, we will hear the name of Falco... Yet October is also the month of the grape harvest and of wine! Therefore, there will be joy in the reflection and memories and the preparation for winter, where we will safeguard our new projects, ready to explode in the spring! And so we wish you a sweet, gentle autumn filled with serenity and vitality. |
On the occasion of the Commemoration of the Dead, we offer you the opportunity to participate in a wonderful and intense program rich with meaning: Beyond Life October 30th - November 3rd Immerse yourself in the Damanhurian vision of death, treated in the evolutionary sense, with the intent to explore a positive and solar vision of the meaning of life and death. Made up of short presentations and courses, your journey will include meditation techniques, art and creativity, philosophical explorations and a guided meditation in the Temples of Humankind. Included as part of the program is a night in the Temples of Humankind as part of the Contact with the Cosmos course and the Commemoration of the Dead ritual. |

The best prayer we could possibly create is one which consists of doing something together, not in asking. -Falco Want to live a community experience at Damanhur? Click here |
