New Temples Of Humankind Coffee Table Book

2007-03-25T08:31:51Z

I recently acquired a copy of the first book offering from COSM (Chapel of Sacred Mirrors Press), "Damanhur- Temples of Humankind". OMG! It is so stunning. I knew that Damanhur was surely the 8th Wonder of the world, but now it can be seen without a doubt how amazing it truly is. I only hope that it is released in a softbound edition at a lower price simply so that more people could learn of its existence and be inspired to join in the spirit of improving the planet, each in his or her own unique way.

I have always known that I am destined to be a healer for our beautiful world, and this book is a tangible representation of how collective human intention can make such wondrous things happen. I hope to find the "team mates" with whom I am meant to work for this important mission that is my life.

I welcome all your ideas of how I might best be of service.

Blessings,

Veronique

The Federation of DAMANHUR (damanhur.org) presents
APRIL/MAY 2007 CALIFORNIA TOUR

SAN FRANCISCO NEW LIFE EXPO: Friday, April 27 at 9pm. Room 5. Lecture: Damanhur and the Temples of Humankind, with Esperide Ananas, healer, lecturer, Damanhur’s Director of Communication and author of ‘Damanhur: The Temples of Humankind’, published by COSM Press and Crotalo Sesamo, director of Olami Damanhur University.

NOVATO, Saturday April 27 and Sunday April 28: PAST LIFE SEMINAR with Esperide Ananas

The Past Life Workshop was an eye opener for me; I resisted it at first because I was expecting a past life I could relate to, as a medicine woman, herbalist, or clairvoyant. Instead I found myself in a barbaric past life as a warrior who disliked killing. But rather than be like the hostile world around me, I chose to create my own code of being, much like I am doing today in this life. I was then, and am today, a ‘peacenik in a world gone crazy.’ Can't wait for the next one. Dr Joan, founder of www.miraclemakersclub.com

Private venue. Deadline to reserve a place: March 29, 2007- See description below.

OPEN SECRET BOOKSTORE, C Street, San Rafael, tel. 415-457-4191

Wednesday May 2 at 7:30 pm -- FULL MOON HEALING MEDITATION IN CONNECTION WITH THE TEMPLES OF HUMANKIND AT DAMANHUR with Esperide Ananas

The visionary painter Alex Grey writes in the foreword of Damanhur: The Temples of Humankind, published by COSMpress: “Damanhur’s Temples of Humankind serve as a giant psychic defibrillator, the electrified paddles that shock the human heart back to life and remembrance of its divinity, medicine for the soul that is desperately needed at this time.” During this meditation, with the background of the beautiful images of the Temples of Humankind, Esperide Ananas will use special Selfic• devices that will help each participant connect to the the Temples as a reservoir of love and pure energies, to pour as a gift upon all living beings on our planet. This deep healing meditation will be accompanied by the music of a concert recorded in the Hall of Mirrors, and linked to the heart chakra, activating an expansion of our individual selves to a greater whole.

Thursday May 3 & Friday May 4 - PRIVATE HEALING SESSIONS -- $75

I had an extraordinary experience in my first one-hour healing session with Esperide Ananas. As a result of this one session, I decided to go to Italy to take Damanhur's course in its School for Spiritual Healers and also to republish a book about this amazing community. Esperide is a natural healer and her talents are augmented by the Selfic technology of Damanhur. I have provided a space in my home for Esperide to do healing sessions during two of her trips to the USA and thus have seen firsthand that everyone who had a session with her left feeling better, and some even had truly remarkable experiences as I did. Kylea Taylor, MFT, President, Hanford Mead Publishers, Inc.

Esperide has wonderful intuitive healing skills. After one session a couple of years ago working on a physical level, the sciatica that had plagued me for a couple of years was completely gone. During the most recent session I had with her working on an emotional level, I felt as if my essence was aligned and that I was deeply restored to a state of authenticity and opened to deeper relationships. Dianne Aranciba

I had the wonder-filled opportunity of meeting & having a session with Esperide in San Rafael, California. It was magical working with her. I experienced amazing spiritual openings. Charmaine Brazil

The healing sessions I have had with Esperide Ananas from the Damanhur community have been profound in ways that words fail to describe. The work she did simultaneously turned up the level on my vital life energy and left me calm and relaxed. I left each session feeling transformed and healed in ways I had not thought possible. Do not pass up a healing session with Esperide and the Selfic technology. You will be transformed. Bruce Lee

Each session lasts approximately 50 minutes. It will include direct experience with the most advanced Damanhur’s selfic healing tools. This ensures a perfectly safe, clear and effective transmission of energy. Selfica is a discipline which allows the concentration and direction of vital and intelligent energies not ordinarily available to the human experience. Esperide has been utilizing these selfic devices to promote healing both within Damanhur and in the United States for over ten years. The first part of the treatment is with Esperide, while in the second half of the session the person continues to integrate the healing energy while the selfic device completes the treatment. A specific healing music recorded in Damanhur’s Temple accompanies each session.

Problems from depression to migraine, from allergies to high blood pressure and from cardiovascular disease to ulcers can all be treated.However it is much more than this. Prana energy is very effective in clearing and aligning the energetic system of the body to make way for the new and powerful energies that are affecting the planet, so that we can concentrate fully on the Light. Even a single treatment can be highly beneficial.

Saturday May 5 - from 11 am to 5 pm – THE SECRET OF DAMANHUR

What happens when a whole group lives applying consciously the Laws of the Universe? A template for a new world.

PAST LIFE RESEARCH SEMINAR --- Novato, California, 28 - 29 April 2007

One of Damanhur’s most profound, moving and fun seminars. An extraordinary journey into the depth of our soul, to discovera new facet of the divine design unfolding through each one of us.

In order to be whole and happy human beings, it is important to discover the depth of our personal history. We are time beings, living contemporaneously on many dimensions. Our experiences are not limited to this point in time but are much more extensive. Past lives, are in fact, present within us. Feelings, moods and patterns of behavior often have their roots deep in other points of time. Insights we have already gained in previous incarnations can now be usefully blended with our present lives.

Don’t expect to find out that you were Napoleon or a great Egyptian pharaoh, this is not the aim of this seminar. You may well have an exotic story to discover, however the real treasure lies in gaining a better understanding of yourself. Once you have revealed those hidden experiences, they may prove invaluable in your efforts to integrate the many facets of your life today. Damanhur has been researching this field for over 30 years, developing a unique technique, which does not use hypnosis, nor requires you entering into any trance state. You are given a clue that helps you to tap into your unconscious memories. Little by little, in a safe and harmonious way you will be able to remember one ore more past lives.

Based on the research of the Way of the Oracle. An effective, safe and accessible seminar for everyone.

THE METHOD Based on the research of a specialist group of Damanhur’s Way of the Oracle, this workshop gives you the key to trace back those lives, which are most significant for your present incarnation. In order to carry out the research we need to receive one recent picture of you, with your face well visible and no sunglasses, completed with your full birth name and place and date of birth. Your photo is used to connect with the thread of your lives, in the research done in the sacred Temples of Damanhur. This is a very meticulous process that requires time. For this reason, please email your picture by MARCH 29, 2007 to: esperide@damanhur.it

Where? In Novato, in the beautiful home of Joan Hangarter, 564 Stone Drive, tel. 415-883-0810.

When? In April, Saturday 28 and Sunday 29. Saturday: from 10 am to 6.pm; Sunday: from 10 am to 5 pm. We’ll share a potluck lunch. Details on booking.

Cost of Workshop 250 $ per person, to be paid in full at time of booking. 100 $ is not refundable. Should you find that you are unable to attend, 50% of this fee is refundable provided that we receive notification no less than 10 days prior to the seminar. After this time, due to research and travel costs, no refund will be possible.

To book and for more details Contact Esperide Ananas: esperide@damanhur.it or Joan: tel. 415 883-0810, drjoan@miraclemakers.com.

Esperide Ananas, M.A., is a writer, lecturer and Damanhur's Communications Director. She has been living in Damanhur since 1992, and in 1993 she graduated from Damanhur School for Spiritual Healers. Esperide leads seminars on healing, community building, and the development of human potential. She has worked for the European Parliament and the United Nations and for the last 10 years she has been an International Ambassador for the Federation, sharing Damanhur’s vision for a culture of peace with political, artistic and communal organizations worldwide. A member of Damanhur’s Way of the Oracle, Esperide specializes in research on subtle and intelligent energies. She is the author of “Damanhur: The Temples of Humankind” by CoSM Press, NYC.

“Esperide Ananas is an inspiring teacher, lecturer and healer and spokesperson of Damanhur, the pioneering spiritual community in northern Italy. A world traveler, and conversant in four languages, Esperide has the gift of being able to communicate the essence of the magic of Damanhur with clarity, beauty and humor. I have hosted and participated in a wide range of seminars and workshops with Esperide and have been amazed at her ability to explain very complex principles underlying the philosophy of Damanhur in a manner that anyone can understand. Coming in touch with Damanhur, even just through a seminar, awakens the heart to what is possible when we get ion touch with our divine part and we learn to play, cooperate and create with others.” Rob Calef, founder of Open Secret Bookstore & Rainbow Body Cultural Center, San Rafael

Communiversity

2007-02-28T21:18:59Z

You are invited to join the Communiversity Tribe. It's a great way to share ideas and another way to keep up with the Oracle Gatherings
much love
Nina

COMMUNIVERSITY

The desire to live in community is no longer a dream of those who love hangin' out with their friends, it has become a necessary way of being. We all, in some way or other will contribute, in order to steer this earthship and humanity in the right direction.

In pondering the whole community living concept and just what that actually entails and how that might look in real life, ask yourself if you were stranded on an island, who would you want to be stranded with?, what skills do we all have to offer? what level of awareness and integrity have we reached? Can we have fun together?

The "Community", which is really many, is growing and people are becoming more aware of the necessity of learning these social, physical, and spiritual skills, and yet the task of acquiring this knowledge can be a daunting journey indeed. Where does one start? We, as the Oracle Gatherings, do a pretty good job at offering the fun part, bringing really amazing conscious people together from up and down the West Coast for transformative experiences but then what? People go their own way and continue to "talk" about the building of community.

Communiversity is an opportunity, and has every potential to move us beyond the talking and move us into action. To move beyond the "community for the weekend" and into the nitty gritty of real community building, and skill acquisition. An opportunity to bring cohesion in this fast paced, pulled in every direction, fractured society. A way for us to grow together and learn from each other and take this whole creation to another level, to really make a difference.

Everyone is welcome, please feel free to give ideas and topics for future Communiversity events. These will be ongoing offerings to the community as well as preparations for the Gatherings. less

Damanhur Weddings

2004-02-24T19:40:07Z

i was discussing a practice held in Wicca as well as at Damanhur of having temporary marriages set for say a year that are witnessed. These serve as a means to test the relationship and determine compatibility over a longer period while giving it an increased commitment level. Wondering if anyone has witnessed or experienced such a thing either in relation to Damanhur or elsewhere.

An Interview with Falco

2003-11-14T00:36:40Z

Today in accordance with the customs of the citizens of the Federation to call themselves by animal names Oberto uses the name of Falco (falcon).

Born in Balangero, Torino in 1950, Oberto demonstrated notable paranormal and healing abilities from an early age that he immediately committed himself to developing through constant and rigorous experimentation outside of classical academic institutions. His spiritual and personal growth proceeded throughout the years through study, travel and research, the re-awakening of memories, the development of artistic abilities and the rediscovery of ancient knowledge. The path proposed by Oberto Airaudi leads to the re-awakening of the inner Master through study, experimentation, the complete expression of individual potential and the overcoming of all dogmatic attitudes. At the basis of this thought there is the conviction that every human being has a divine nature to be re-awakened, through constant and continuous interaction with others.

Always a reserved person and not inclined towards promoting his own image, philosopher, healer, writer and painter, Falco does not hold decision making roles inside the political structure of Damanhur. He is very active in the field of therapy, art and new sciences. His knowledge, which he himself subjects to continuous verification, derives from the ability to draw on the great reservoirs of human knowledge and the connection Damanhur has created with the Divine Cosmic Forces of the New Millennium.

L.V:
Founder and inspirer of Damanhur, spiritual Master, healer, artist and researcher: Oberto Airaudi is one of the most eclectic personalities known today. Not liking to be defined in one way, which of these characteristics would you say you identify with the most?

Falco:
It is in non-identifying oneself. Every identification, in fact becomes a kind of label that reduces all the other possibilities and opportunities. As far as possible it is better to refuse definitions of this kind. Vice versa, if one plays the 'guru' it does nothing but reduce the person to that label.

L.V:
You teach people to search for their inner Master. What is the fulcrum, the heart of this teaching?

Falco:
It is a path with successive stages. People who want to find a spiritual pathway have an idea of what they want, which is always a child of its time. Almost all tend to reinforce a need for security that is represented by the necessity to have someone to refer to who substitutes the father or mother figure or those who have been incisive in their formation. At this point there are two possibilities. Those who have a constant need to have a Master outside of themselves tend to identify it in some element. However, as soon as they find themselves on the path and this figure begins to
Make them reflect upon non-egotistical principles, or when they are invited to assume roles of responsibility, they immediately change their search for a Master, change location and begin to go in a spin, passing from one experience to another year after year. Then, there is the opposite, those who having overcome the first phase of 'fascination' begin to listen, to really feel, that which is said. As far as I am concerned those who get through the first phase begin to understand that to search for an inner Master means not just believing and thinking. It means giving a meaning to action; using the hands, which are the instrument of action and this, is prayer. Prayer means digging. Those who arrive at the idea of digging, of assuming effective responsibility, that is verifiable, can then begin to search or to discover their inner Master, arriving at the Divinity contained inside of everyone. At this point a figure, who does not speak continuously but who is an effective reference with whom to have a silent link can be useful. Personally I do not speak, or only rarely, with people individually but I make collective discourses in such a way that each person can draw out the part they need from the whole.
I try to pay close attention to this aspect so as to tear away the veils as soon as possible. Identifying the Master in someone else means to not wanting to assume responsibility. Since our path leads in the opposite direction it is necessary that people learn to do this.

L.V:
In your teaching you speak of the 'Re-awakening of the inner God'.

Falco:
The next step in the search for the inner Master is the discovery of uniqueness, the identification of the characteristics of each person. It is important to want to do it individually, assuming responsibility and not waiting for someone else to do it. Inner research passes through balance, which is fundamental to the idea of deification and through comparison with others. Balance means completing all the parts of yourself: the tree is not only the trunk but also the leaves, roots, fruit and branches otherwise it is no longer a tree. This path passes through doing as opposed to saying. Action and doing means not exalting oneself in the search and not wanting to display mysteriousness, a situation into which those who have power often fall. It means responsibility towards others.

L.V:
You founded Damanhur to realize a dream so it is always said. Can you define the scenario of this dream?

Falco:
Dream, by nature is nourished by the events that happen during the day, but in turn it has to educate reality to become a solid element and not only a presumed element, a quasi real. In this way the dream builds. This dream linked to Damanhur is a dream-puzzle in which the dreams of others are put together with mine. Every Damanhurian with his/her choices responsibilities, enthusiasm, willingness to do, adds details and new threads to the dream, which in turn influences and transforms the dream itself.

L.V:
The Temples of Humankind are a gigantic undertaking that has required enormous amounts of energy and willingness on your part and that of the Damanhurians. They seem to be something truly important: why?

Falco:
They demonstrate that it is possible to bring dream into matter, make it become an object and thus establish a bridge between matter and dream, that we can define as spiritual, intimate, divine. It is a demonstration that many dreams can be coordinated and shared. A dream made of the material world, of details that have a meaning. An artistic project must be allowed to give meaning to what it creates.

Lepre Viola:
What possibilities does a guest or visitor have to experience these spiritual aspects linked to the Temples?

Falco:
A visitor must become a pilgrim and not a tourist, a person who seeks to find; not just someone who searches for searching's sake ad infinitum. Before getting to know, or having an intimate contact with the Temples people must speak with Damanhurians. Although this is not easy because everyone has many commitments and is continually running, talking with them can help to distinguish individual characteristics. These characteristics are then re-traceable in the Temples because there are visits, contact with the Temples at various levels. The Temples by nature bring out into the open the nature of the visitor. Those who arrive with envy or similar feelings will find it in the mirrors of the Temples in which they see themselves; those who arrive with a clear mind and with the intent of finding will encounter all that they want and desire. Whoever comes and knows what they wish to find will find it. Those who come by chance like a mushroom seeker, who knows nothing about mushrooms, will not find anything.

L.V:
What are you principally occupied with in your personal research?

Falco:
The use of the mobile laboratories of the large campers that facilitate the research that lies somewhere between physics, spirituality and magic. Research that is directed towards the discovery of what we define as the ' Matrices' of matter. The references, reading keys, of the status of Form. The matrices are the comparisons and my research is centred principally on this. I am also referring to the functions of time, and links with other distant realities in time and space in respect to us. I am involved in preparing successive scenarios, of indicating the roads that could be useful for moving ahead. If Damanhur were a school - and from a certain point of view it is - my research would be aimed at individuating the next 'class', the level of maturation that lies ahead, to indicate to people new ways of being. All this has to do with the development and the growth of our social structure, with different artistic expressions, in identifying a new way to make politics, with our movement 'Con te per il Paese' in agreement with spiritual equilibrium and the inner self.
The numerous projects that Damanhur is developing always have a spiritual aim, directed towards the communal growth of our People, to the search we call 'finding'.

L.V:
How important is the sense of humour - that you cite in many of your theses - on the spiritual path?

Falco:
As long as one takes oneself very seriously it is difficult to learn.
The humorist is the individual who is also able to see things from the outside and it is fundamental to learn to have a detached vision of yourself. He or she who sees things only from the inside is certainly not a humorist, but a centralizer of power, searching only for personal results. Because humour has to demonstrate things that in reality if they were true - would not need to be demonstrated and that decisively distances the research of the inner Divinity. A sense of humour is certainly a key, a mirror, that should be used often. Vice versa, things taken too seriously produce pain and pain is a road from which by nature we need to flee. There is no elevation in pain, spiritual or of any other kind.
Not even when it is put on display. It has nothing to do with spirituality if it concerns misery in a world where you must suffer to have who knows what in the afterlife. This is the life we have to live; it is better to have a sense of humour.
