We have taken thousands of people to visit our Temples, and one thing we have learned is that there is still so much to discover! Every wall, every color, every symbol take on new meanings as they are seen through the eyes, and felt through the hearts of our guests from all over the world. To share this interesting and profound discovery of values, ideals and meaning with you, we have started to record some of our guests’ comments and we will be posting them regularly. We hope you’ll enjoy them as much as we do.
The Temples told by… #1
David Pearl, Innovator in Business, the Arts and Social Change
David has been performing since he made his debut, aged 9, at the Royal Opera House alongside Placido Domingo. Later he set up two mold-breaking opera ensembles, presented his own music show on BBC 2, and wrote for the great filmmaker Stanley Kubrick. Today, he is a major social and business innovator through story telling and the arts.
He is the author of two books, and is now working on his third one, inspired by his experience with Street Wisdom, the social enterprise he founded.
David shares his impressions on the new Hall of the Labyrinth and the importance of a new Myth to inspire the future and the life of all of us.
“This should not be possible. Everything in your brain says— this should not exist. But the fact that a place of such intricacy exists inspires me every time I come here. I just remember — never mind what everyone says in the world, this IS possible. I invite and urge other people to come visit and DREAM BIG. This is a BIG DREAM made real.”
