Damanhur: megalo-satanic sect and deffamation syndrom

Jacqueline de Croÿ - 1 mai 2006 - updated

The state of Damanhur was founded by Oberto Airaudi, an Italian insurance agent born in 1950, which had a unique sense of business and exceptional "paranormal capacities", explain the Damnhurians. He is also fastidious on the admiration he believes due to him. Whereas all his exploits are spread over the Internet sites of Damanhur, his former followers cannot ask for a judgement for swindle and his work cannot be prone of a conference without him launching legal proceedings for... defamation.

By skews of meditation and other non-traditional forms of study, Oberto Airaudi had learned hypnosis. He went on body extra journeys, materialized of objects (?) and had gifts of levitation, ensure his disciples. He created Damanhur, supposed to be a model society: a state in the state, managed by the Damahurian Constitution. The citizens venerate Greek and Celtic divinities, more particularly the gods Orus and Pan, symbols of the earth and the fertility. They have the originality of reincarnate according to oriental beliefs', without bond with their favourite Gods.

Convinced that cathedrals of the Middle Ages were built by people without education (sic), Airaudi decided that he could do the same, at the foot of the Italian Alps inside the mountain in the north of Turin. A small house on the side of the slope had made it possible the Damanhuriens to discreetly dig during 16 years, to carry out a monstrous temple, larger than a football field, with a dome in small glassware lit with electricity.

Self-educated healer has invented a magic potion, supposed to be an "ancient cure", composed of alchemical liquids and metals, to cure fatal diseases. Plants would make various "blips", according to him. He thus gave a sound to each one of these "blips" and attached the plant to a synthesizer by probes. When the plant realizes that it makes music, it makes improvisations with the guru!

 

The damanhuriens are committed to contribute with their resources and their work, to the economic maintenance of the Damahurian Nation, without having the possibility to recover their own capital stocks. While the guru buys in Euro, the Federal Bank of Damanhur strikes the currency of the citizen: the Credito.

The tourist bureau of Damanhur offers excursions from three to seven days, with courses of esotericism and therapies at the Free University of Damanhur, which is one of the main sources of income. Free conferences are given on the "spirituality of the Flowers of Bach", bases of Vit' Alba, object of judgment for misleading publicity.

Thus, 800 people virtually have 120 hectares of wood, 5 hectares of urban surface, 100 hectares of agricultural land and more than 60 explorations, laboratories, restaurants vegetarians, farms, artisan workshops of weaving and selling their natural products.

They are thus rich, having worked sometimes for years without spending a cent, but they only have access to monkey currency to exchange the food which they cultivate themselves.

The State of Damanhur has a "constitution", which allows a total control on the slaves. The damanhuriens have the choice between various forms of marriage, of which a one year renewable contracts. If a couple wishes to have a child, it must program it with the community before conceiving it, in the absence of what, it is penalized.

The Damanhurian women give birth at home, without possibility of medical help in the event of complication, which used to kill a woman on thousand, and far more children. As from the birth, the Damanhurian baby is sent in an "state institution", which undertakes his or her education up to university, in so far as he or she was programmed. The children are cured by alternative medicines, without the vaccines that can prevent the most serious handicaps and death.

The information of the people is done by the means of a gazette of eight pages and television news with closed loop. The children are held in the ignorance of the rest of the world which is presented to them like a hell where the right to dream is prohibited. Bad taste is inculcated like a religion and they are deprived to see the true wonders of their country. They taught to believe in the beauty of lecherous devils, Jesus Christ with the body of the Virgin Mary, together with sick ceremonies.

In 1988, whereas a man worked 15 hours per day to dig the temple, his two daughters were forced to work like children slaves, according to them. Airaudi, whose charisma is praised by the New Age movements, had the exceptional charisma to transfer the inheritance from their late mother to the Federal Bank of Damanhur where the Italian liras vanished, changed into Credito. They testified that in 1989, he set fire at the state mobile homes where the children slept, to get the money of the insurance.

In 1992, "by a strange torsion of destiny", explains the damanhuriens, a former member, obviously dissatisfied with the way of life, gave the plans of the secret temple to a local judge. The Italian army was ordered to destroy it but when they pushed by the door: the judge looked, dazzled by a quite relative beauty and "started to cry". The troops left without destroying anything, in spite of the court decision and "to prevent the Italian authorities to ever seize the temple, "the judge has 'seized it' himself", say the damanhuriens!

In 1998, according to a report of the ministry of Italian home affairs, the symbol of the New Age charisma was to answer of 13 complaints, for pyromania, forgery in writing and worsened swindle.

Since, the latest fashion is to answer to a complaint by filing a complaint for defamation before the judgment. The victims and witnesses thus become defendants, constrained of having to show their sincerity, the fact they had a legitimate aim, the preoccupation of certain cautiousness and the proportionality between the objectives and the hypothetical damage which they would have caused! In other words: any prosecuted person must answer by filing a complaint for defamation, either to embarrass the adversary, or to obtain the equality of the weapons. Would justice have become a circus?
