A Heaven For Searching Hearts

The Parks of Study and Reflection are places which, more than anything, are meant for the study of Silo’s teachings. They are a heaven for those whose hearts search for meaning.

Study & Reflection

Teachings That Are Wise & Kind

These are teachings that are both wise and kind. Here it is easy to feel joy and kindness, and no one is ever asked about their personal beliefs.

Universal Purpose

Physically & Mentally Interconnected

Globally, all the Parks are physically and mentally interconnected, since it is the same Purpose that animates this project everywhere, a Purpose tied to human evolution.

The Humanist Vision

Awakening A Sense Of Collective Unity

The Parks awaken and encourage the expression of a powerful sense of “collective unity,” something “transpersonal” that goes beyond the individual.

Our Purpose

About the Parks

The architectural elements and other objects found in this Park are common to all the Parks worldwide and reflect the way in which the human being has listened to and interpreted the echoes of the sacred - from ancient times and in all cultures.

Sometime the Parks are the site of great gatherings. Here neighbours, friends and family members enjoy celebrating different events together.

None of these extraordinary places were built by, or for, any one individual. There is still future!

Elements of The Park

All Parks worldwide, wherever established, contain elements which are unique to the themes of reflection and study. These elements borrow heavily in their morphological form and structure from innumerable cultural traditions and spiritual symbols.

Threshold The Entrance Gate

The Entrance Gate

Entrance gates mark the boundary separating two spaces: the space of the external world and that of the intimacy of home; noise and silence.

Sacred Space The Meditation Hall

The Meditation Hall

A tranquil hemispherical space in which any person, believer or non-believer, can feel at home and focus on their inner world.

Source The Fountain

The Fountain

Waters are the symbol of primordial substance. The fountain carries on the ancestral tradition of inner regeneration.

Architecture

Meditation Hall & Monolith

Like the great stupas, the Halls in the Parks of Study and Reflection are hemispherical, and touch the sky with the tip of their cupola. The empty hemispherical form facilitates access to profound internal experience by making it easier to concentrate energy.

Architectural forms like our Monoliths have been found down through history. In other times such connectives between “heaven” and “earth” were referred to as the “axis mundi”.

Origins

The Humanist Movement

In this rapid acceleration, the human being cannot keep up with the pace of change and thereby loses his own direction. In reply to this, people with Humanist Sensibility started to think in the direction of Direct Communication, Non Violence and Peace.

This initiative named as The Humanist Movement was started in 1969 by SILO, a thinker, philosopher and writer from Argentina. He contributed immensely in the Psycho-Social-Spiritual fields.
