Join Gaia Education at Damanhur: A portal to a new future

Damanhur is a living lab for the Future, federation of spiritual communities, with its own constitution, culture, art, music, currency, schools and uses of science and technology. It was founded in 1975 from the inspiration of Falco Tarassaco (1950-2013). His enlightened and pragmatic vision created a fertile reality based on solidarity, sharing, love and respect for the environment.
 
Damanhur is perhaps best known for its extraordinary subterranean work of art and architecture, a cathedral known as the Temples of Humankind. It has been profiled on international television as the “Eighth Wonder of The World.” This complex was entirely dug by hand into the heart of the mountain. Decorated with mosaics, stained glass, sculptures, wall paintings and other works of art, it is dedicated to the awakening the divine spark present in every human being.

Damanhur: A federation of spiritual communities

Vision: a new consciousness

Embracing Damanhur’s Vision: A future crafted with Spirit and Community

Human beings, free from conditioning, recognize and express their divine nature. Perceiving themselves as collective individuals, they manifest the sacredness of life by reconnecting with Life in the universe. 

 

Mission: our path forward

Damanhur, inspired by the knowledge transmitted by Falco, operates for the reawakening of humanity.

It promotes the evolution into a world based on regenerative Communities and Peoples connected in a synergistic network in which joyful individuals who live in sharing and solidarity participate.

Damanhur is a living laboratory for the Future, a Federation of spiritual communities, and a worldwide movement that inspires the lives of thousands of people committed to leaving a positive mark on the world.

The six hundred citizens who live there have created a multilingual society, open to exchanges with the world and the different cultures of peoples. Many other Damanhurians live worldwide and support the Federation’s ideals and projects.

Damanhur was founded from the inspiration of Falco Tarassaco, Oberto Airaudi (1950-2013). His enlightened and pragmatic vision, shared by many others, created a fertile reality based on solidarity, sharing, art and culture, mutual love, and respect for Life and every being.

Damanhur EDE Reports

Gaia Education

“EDE in Damanhur was an incredible journey where I learned a lot about my inner
landscape- how many creative tools there are to create an honest, holistic transformative
relationship on the outside with other fellow human beings and with myself.”

EDE 2022

Gaia Education

“The course was a very intense, beautiful experience. Two months afterwards
while still trying to integrate the experience into daily live, I slowly realize,
that I cannot integrate into the old, because the course has changed the old”

EDE 2019

Gaia Education

“Joining Gaia Education’s ToT at Damanhur was an eye-opening journey. In the serene environment and excellent training facilities, I discovered the true power of learning from fellow participants, each bringing a unique perspective. Beyond the curriculum, this experience reignited my connection with myself, fostering introspection and personal growth. It was a remarkable opportunity to not only expand my skills as a trainer but also deepen my understanding of sustainable living through shared experiences with an incredible group of changemakers”

ToT Damanhur

Gaia Education

“Being with a good group of peer trainers in a beautiful setting in a training skillfully held by Macaco was deepening the GAIA Education methodology through an intense week of facilitators inputs, group exploration and practise. Networks built, new projects to emerge, stronger facilitation in all walks of life, where participants in this ToT will find themselves. Thank you for a powerful ToT.”
