Un avvincente Seminario, in cui grandiosi miti d'Oriente e d'Occidente ci parlano con tutto il loro illuminante potere immaginativo. Ci insegnano il perché di nascita e morte. Prometeo e Hiranyakashipur: cosa li accomuna? Entrambi scardinano l'ordine cosmico, entrambi nel tentativo di scampare alla morte. Ma la morte ha la sua funzione nel progetto universale, tanto che possiamo affermare che, senza capire la morte, non possiamo capire la vita. Senza comprendere l'utilità della morte ai fini della nostra evoluzione, saremo come tanti Prometeo e Hiranyakashipur.

Griefland. It's a place no one wants to visit - a place without borders where language is inadequate and pain is constant. It's a place where every morning, one awakens to the stark reality that a loved one will never be seen, heard - or embraced - again. This is a place that Armen Bacon and Nancy Miller know all too well, for both of them, when they met, had lost a child to drug addiction. Both of them had also enjoyed a comfortable, middle-class life - until it was rocked by the sudden death of a son Alex, and a daughter, Rachel.
