Artistic activities contest


The organizing committee of the XIXth International Gnostic Congress of Anthropology, Egypt 2009, invites all students of the Gnostic Institute of Anthropology to cooperate in this great event realizing an artistic activity.
The only request is that the activity to be shown has a good quality level and meets the features of the Objective Art, proper to the Gnostic Knowledge

 
The aim of your participation
Objective Art holds in our teaching a very important place. Used from time immemorial in all past cultures, its aim has always been to activate in man the Superior Emotional Centre in order to transmit him transcendental teachings.
The purpose of the artistic activities during the Gnostic Congress in Egypt is not to merely fill a gap between various lectures but to try to revive this long since forgotten Art and to reach the heart of the whole audience so that the sublime feelings of the Being rise to the surface.
 
Suggestion

There are a lot of possibilities for the artistic activities that may be realized either in a group or individually, for example:

- Performance of plays, tales, legends, Egyptian myths, etc.
- Classic, folkloric or religious songs and dances.
- Concerts with musical instruments.
- Poetry declamation, etc.
The most important is to put aside laziness and all kinds of psychological fears: insecurity, doubts, lack of confidence in oneself, prejudices, etc. and start to develop creative imagination and inspiration.

- Name and surname of the participants.
- Complete address.
