A Breathtaking Vision
Advertisement
Each house has a specific project that it focuses on for the benefit of the whole, such as agriculture, energy or education. The idea is that small groups, working together in a co ordinated fashion, can accomplish what governments can not. The most fascinating accomplishment of Damanhur are the Temples of Humanity- all built underground. They are massive underground catacombs characterized by mosaics, frescoes, sculpture and lighted overhead domes of stained glass. The Italian government didn�t even know about them until a few years ago.
This video is one of seven parts that explores the breathtaking scenery at Damanhur, Voted the �Most Beautiful Community in the World� by Communities Magazine in 2007. There is art and beauty everywhere: on the outside walls of the group houses you�ll see brightly painted scenes of giant flowers, animals, bugs or underwater seascapes, large and small sculptures on homes and community buildings scattered throughout the grounds.
�Damanhur was founded to realize a dream, the dream of a society based upon optimism and on the fact that human beings could be the masters of their own destiny without having to depend on other forces outside of themselves�
-- Founder, Oberto Airaudi
"The Temples are a great laboratory where art and science, technology and spirituality are united in the research of new roads for the evolution of humanity" says their website.
What a vision- see for yourself!
