I exist not because a poet has told my story, but because I am living here and now. Am I more or less true than the mythological heroes?
Do I contribute to the world's history more or less than they do?

Myth is the ream of the purest values, and it is a real, practical realm, which not only nurtures our imagination, but directs our behaviors towards
a specific path. Every myth is curated and lives within us. The myth represents the most comprehensive way to speak about the characteristics of human beings–even when it tells us of Divinities and extraordinary Forces!–and it is the most precise compass to point us in the right direction so that we can express the best side of ourselves. The strength of the myth is to be outside time, or better still, to ride time as a surfer on the waves of the ocean. Damanhur and its philosophy, both inspired by Falco Tarassaco's thought, tell us about the birth of life and the universe through many myths, in which everyone can recognize aspects of themselves and listen to their own voice.
