There are also holy sanctuaries which are created solely by the forms of nature around them: labyrinthine caves, mountains, trees, forests, elevated rocks and rivers... plentiful living symbols which, according to Danielle Hani-Marai, constellate man’s ancient folk-memory of the past but also the future.

 Origins, Meaning and Manifestations of the Sacred Travelling back in time, Danielle Hani-Marai looks at the events that set in motion the long sequence of developments that led man to the sacred and spirituality – understood here as a genuine and qualitative leap in his consciousness.
