Damanhur: The School of Meditation
The School of Meditation is an individual and collective path aimed at re-connecting with the Divine for the awakening of all Humanity. It is an original pathway, which unifies the essence of all traditions. It is based upon change, elaboration and continuous experimentation. The School of Meditation is a Mystery School; an inner discipline applied 24 hours per day, a path of knowledge and self-empowerment. On Damanhur's spiritual path there is no dogma, only ‘working hypotheses’ that undergo continuous verification. The Damanhurian School of Meditation requires its members to exercise free will through continuous choice.

Founded in the early 1970's, the Federation of Damanhur in Italy is now an internationally renowned center for spiritual, artistic and social research. Damanhur is an eco-society, a federation of communities and eco-villages with a continuously evolving social and political structure.
The aims of Damanhur are: the freedom and re-awakening of the Human Being as a divine, spiritual and material principle; the creation of a self-sustaining model of life based on ethical principles of good communal living and love; harmonic integration and co-operation with all the Forces linked to the evolution of Humankind.
