THE PURPOSE
The event enriched with new themes and content and because of the versatility of the programs and interventions is directed to everybody without any distinction. The aim is not just an excuse to make known, in an interesting, unique, magic and with fun way, those nations that are known by the common stereotypes of "exotic". We believe that these realities can offer much more than just a dip in the clear water, clumps of palm trees, fragrant oils and spices. These Nations are a great mouthpiece for known or unknown culture and spirituality, and, if brought to a wider audience can fascinate and conquer even the most distracted visitor (such as the philosophy of the Greeks had at the time the Romans conquered the invaders).

But our primary intention is:
• 1 - Make people to be acquainted with the less known aspects of these Countries, make them known and appreciated because this helps to open minds. Open the doors of knowledge, bring in more of the values in a society that is lacking of values, and through this knowledge be able to avoid intolerance and racism that seem increase rather than decrease, multiply in our peninsula.
• 2nd - Allow people from these Countries to integrate peacefully into our society while respecting customs, and laws of the nation that is accepting them.

This is a commitment that we feel a duty to perform in order to "improve" the respect that is the basis of a common life (both in family and in society) and of life itself.
Not to detract from this high disciplines as Yoga, Ayurveda Arts and .... different Spirituality .
For this reason, the Congress Yoga - Ayurveda - Fine Arts and the symposium of religions were programmed separately but at the same time accessible to an audience less prepared.
One way to spread the disciplines that we think are important to give value to humanity on the brink of collapse and increase the respect and love for all creation (and his creatures, whether animate or inanimate).
