Questions on the Godess Temple of Rome (preparation for the conference with Maya Vassallo Di Florio)

Question on the necessary objectivity in anthropological research.

Don't you think that participating - it seems very actively, according to the introduction - can alter your objectivity?

• Rationality studying irrationality.

If we assume that these rites are based on irrational phenomena, do you think that it is legitimate to question the ability of a rational science - anthropology - to study irrational ceremonies? In other words, do you think irrationality can be studied through a rational prism? Doesn't the anthropologist lose their rationality by participating to these ceremonies that imply that the participants abandon strict rationality?

• Anthropological interpretation of this phenomenon.

How do you, as an anthropologist, interpret these kinds of irrational reactions to rationality - especially in the field of healing?

The Goddess Temple Rome (Tempio della Grande Dea No-Profit) is dedicated to the Goddess Aphrodite and to the study of the Aphroditic and Avalonian Tradition.

The Temple is a wonderful, welcoming and loving Sacred Place, permeated by the presence of Aphrodite, the Great Goddess of the Sea, Love and Sacred Sexuality, and it is available to anyone who wishes to get in touch with Her and be in Her sacred presence, perceived through one of the lands of Her ancient Mysteries.

Here we dedicate ourselves to various types of arts, activities of spiritual growth and well-being.

Our Temple is also an anthropological, archaeomythological and philosophical research centre.

This Sacred Space is born and is deeply rooted in the Motherhood values of Love, Caring, Wisdom and Discovering.

We organize trips to sacred and natural places and many activities related to the spiritual Path of the Divine Feminine.

The Temple trainings take place mainly in Rome (where She was the most worshipped Goddess) and on the Amalfi Coast (Land of the Mermaids and of the Vesuvius volcano), and through the years, many people from all around the world manifested their interests in knowing again Her names and sacred places through the activities of Her first modern Temple in Rome in this modern era.

May Aphrodite's love flow like the waves of the Sea and flood the hearts of all who hear Her wise whisper, which is calling us to an ancient and renewed awareness.

Special guest visit : Maya Vassalo di Florio from the Godess Temple of Rome

I really enjoyed this intervention, which I found both entertaining and challenging. Indeed, our guest asked some essential questions about today's world, our western societies and our human condition. The fact is that modern man is becoming a little more detached from nature every day. Rousseau was already thinking about this in the 18th century and made the link between primitive man, who is good, and society, in which he is less and less so. Is our evolution the right evolution ? Is our progress benefiting us as much as we might imagine ? Are we not leading to our own downfall by moving away from where we came from ? We humans are a fruit of nature, I sometimes imagine that more than that, we are nature's mistakes, doomed, due to our thirst for more, to self-destruction. But perhaps this is not exactly the point. Maya told us about her gurison sessions, which are complementary to the classical mediacal methods used to heal what science cannot explain. Using all kinds of natural tools that release energy and can have regenerative and reparative effects on us according to our specific needs. I am not sure that these methods work for everyone, it all depends, I think, on the faith and confidence you have in these practices. But if it can help people who can not find a solution in more traditional medicine, then all the better. She also perfectly mentioned that to find happiness, it is crucial to seek to understand our desires and pleasures, a message that I find particularly right.
