Ecological Meals & Everything you'll need
During your stay, you will have the opportunity to enjoy lunch at one of our on-site cafés. In the evenings, you will get to cook together with other members of the group. At Damanhur, we embrace the values of solidarity and mutual care. As part of that, you will participate in "turno," a cooking shift that rotates between members of a household. This ensures that everyone has the chance to work without worrying about cooking a meal when they come home for lunch or dinner.
1-month program with various activities
The program includes different activities such as workshops, meditations, group dynamics, and more to give you a taste of life in the community while also working for individual and group growth.
Visit to the Temples of Humankind and the Sacred Woods
The Temples of Humankind are known as the "eighth wonder of the world." You will have the opportunity to visit this exceptional underground structure for guided meditations and activities. During the program, you will also have the chance to meet the people behind its construction and hear their stories about building it in secret 50 years ago. Additionally, you will visit the Sacred Woods, located above the Temples of Humankind, where trees act as antennas to transmit its powerful energy into the cosmos.
Damanhurian Communities
The Federation of Damanhur consists of four communities: Damjl, Terre di Oropan, Etulte, and Arca Tentyris. Each community and home within has its own unique characteristics. To understand their diversity and how each contributes to the bigger mission of Damanhur, you will have the opportunity to visit these communities. This is a great chance for you to learn about the active projects in Damanhur and perhaps even choose which family you would like to join after the program if you wish to begin a path of Damanhurian Citizenship.
An unforgettable experience
If the dates align you will also have the chance to experience various Damanhurian Rituals: The Full Moon Oracle, Damanhur Get, the Triad, and even special events such as the Photo of the People, Damanhurian New Year, Concerts, Great Rituals of the Equinoxes and Solstices, Commemoration of the Dead, and more. These rich experiences will give you a taste of what it is like to live in an intentional community and perhaps for some it will be the first step in understanding if community life is for you.
Partial Scholarship Opportunity
Don’t worry, you can apply for a partial scholarship by sending us a letter of motivation. In your letter, please make sure to include a brief bio describing your current personal journey, your aspirations and goals for the future, the skill sets you are willing to contribute, and any other important information.
