What Damanhurians believe in - Stambecco Pesco
‘quest’.
Warp and weft
What do Damanhurians believe in? What are the principles of their philosophy of life? Why is the latter not seen as a religion, while yet representing a very well-defined spiritual reality?
Damanhurian philosophy, based on Falco Tarassaco’s teachings and subsequently developed by Falco’s spiritual offspring, is the foundation upon which the Federation of Communities was created and has grown: Damanhurians are involved in many things, from art to education, from politics to the growing of fruit and vegetables organically and so many other areas, but Damanhur is above all a spiritual reality.
The Damanhurian spiritual path, well defined in its fundamental concepts, allows various approaches depending on the different individual inclinations. Spiritual relativism? No, if anything it is mystical provocation, with which Falco used to underline the fact that a spiritual path has value if taken not just according to the principles we believe in but also with full participation of our emotions and our intelligence, day after day, bit by bit.
Falco himself was extremely fond of the dialectics involved in Damanhurians’ interpretations and possible elaborations of the things he said during public meetings. The possibility of exploring, explaining and enriching Damanhurian philosophy, by testing it against different or alternative logics, enables us to see how our own ideas – even on very deep philosophical questions – engage with those of others, over and above any monolithically held dogma. And this surely was and is one of the strong points of Damanhurian spirituality.
Over the forty years of his teachings, Falco constantly sought to convey his spiritual message using a range of modalities based on engaging with others, purposely not producing the book of teachings, a foundation text which would be the key to Damanhurian philosophy. Furthermore, when elaborating upon his ideas, Falco would use different languages
– esotericism, myth, spirituality, the Quesiti, Spiritual Physics, to mention those that have had the most impact on Damanhur’s adventure. And, within these languages
, he always maintained the importance of individual doubt, of debate with others, affirming the value of cross-fertilization between different experiences, and the modification that one experience works on another, and the role of picture and frame that the many forms of his teachings take on in respect of each other.
This flexibility, which is based on the principle that every difference is mutual, and mutually enriching, is the warp that binds and maintains the weft of Damanhurian philosophy. At the center of the itinerary proposed by Falco Tarassaco, is the uniting of the human being with his or her divine nature, through contact with the self, with the divine nature that dwells within us all, with the great spiritual ecosystem of which we are a part, often unconsciously. This objective is the core around which the Damanhur experience develops through the activities of the School of Meditation.
The School offers practical courses involving elements of personal development teamed with elements drawn from the esoteric tradition, teaching us how to interact with Forces and laws that go beyond our material plane. The union of these aspects, told in different ways and declined according to the everyday experience of every individual, constitutes the body of Damanhurian belief.
To give meaning
Spirituality does not have to mean believing in a God or following a religion; it is more an
