Spirit of Fuerteventura

Our civilisation today has evolved in many ways, compared to ancient times, but nevertheless we still are searching for the holy grail of a good partnership. Since the time of pharaohs, Greek philosophers and roman emperors, mankind is puzzled by the secret of love.

If we may generalise on a worldwide scale then one important element in human behaviour though has shown an immense evolution: the emancipation of women and the resulting respect for them. This evolution lifted “the weak sex” onto an equal level as that of the man, and provided the indispensable condition for a successful quest for a balanced partnership. But it has some consequences, just like personal freedom invites you to generate your own judgements.

The Centro Artis Tirma, next to the gas-station of Tarajalejo, at the foot of the impressive mountain Caracol, has big rooms for Workshops, Seminars and other events. It hosts a Meditation-Pyramid, a big Labyrinth and a Zen-Garden. For the inauguration of the Centro Artis Tirma, Wednesday, november 12, 17 h, the wellknown artist and geomant Marko Pogacnik and other artists have been invited to build a Geopunktur-Stonecircle for the Canary Islands, as it was used in magalith times.

Relaxation can be achieved when a person is concentrating to relax; meditation can be achieved when a person is reaching a totality of consciousness without focussing on any task, or on any specific topic and thus achieving a reduction of unwanted mental interferences.

In the following article, we try to demonstrate how and why our mind and its conditioning are affecting our general health and wellbeing. And how we can escape from its eventual negative influences.

A couple of years ago a scientist called Herbet Specter from the National Institute of Health carried out the following experiment: one population of mice was administered a chemical Poly-A-c, that strengthens their immune system. At the same time he exposed the mice to the smell of Camphor, another chemical. After a while, the mice were stimulating their immune system when they smelled Camphor. Another population of mice was administered the chemical Cyclophosphamide, that destroys the immune system. At the same time he exposed these mice to the smell of Camphor. After a while these mice started to destroy their immune system when they smelled camphor. He now had 2 groups of mice: one group smells camphor and stimulates their immune system and the other group smell camphor and destroys their immune system.

The Canadian scientist Wilder Penfield, Neurologist and Nobel Prize winner eliminates brain tumours by surgery. When he opened the brain of his patients, he examined the functioning of their brain by stimulating certain areas of it by administering very low voltage electricity. The aim was to find the control centre of the brain.
