What exactly is Transcendental Meditation? Starting from this question, Federico Traversa, after years spent working with the priest of the last Don Andrea Gallo, throws himself body and soul into this new spiritual journey, which he will share with the audience of the Festival. Ideally accompanied by his friend and TM teacher Ugo Guido, the writer talks about his meeting with all the main Italian masters of Transcendental Meditation, analyzes published scientific studies, immerses himself in the ancient Vedic tradition, sifts through the history of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, alternating complicated quantum theories and first-hand experiences. A serious research, halfway between an essay and the exploration of an evocative world, which aims to finally offer a clear and non-partisan explanation of one of the most discussed and fascinating practices of the last century.
