Exploring the Meaning of Life through Symbols

“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; that which is essential is invisible to the eye” - Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Symbols exist across cultures as an expression of the timeless human search for meaning, acting as a bridge between the visible and invisible. Director of New Acropolis (India) Yaron Barzilay will explore symbols across traditions as a window to discover deeper Truths about life and our role as human beings. This will be followed by an interactive discussion with young philosophers who practice Philosophy as a way of life. Which symbols inspire them to develop values like stability and courage, in their daily lives? Together we will discover how exploring symbols can help us lead a more adventurous, meaningful and happier life.

The event is part of a global celebration of World Philosophy Day by New Acropolis in over 60 countries as a way to reaffirm the power of Philosophy to change the world by enabling us to change ourselves.
