The challenges of its preservation, its ability to spontaneously emerge, and its apparent life of its own may also explain its sacred place and the resulting fire cults. Fire is a key element in many rites of passage, celebrations, or festivals that mark the transition of an individual, a human community, or the world from one state to another. Fire was also one of the four elements in Greek philosophy and the alchemical tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\n According to the most ancient myths, fire has divine, not human, origins. Therefore, humans must somehow have \"stolen\" fire from the gods.\u003cbr\u003e \nIn some religions there are specific deities closely linked to the cult of fire. In ancient Rome, the Vestal Virgins were responsible for guarding the perpetual flame within the temple, which guaranteed prosperity and survival to the city.[11] In the Bible, the analogy between fire and the spirit of God often recurs.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fabio Capitanio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56203356176770,"sku":"109840","price":4000.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/img_1992.jpg?v=1768317576"},{"product_id":"dal-ciclo-il-sole-ci-sta-parlando-the-sun-is-talking","title":"Essence","description":"\u003cp\u003e Despite all the changes we go through, we always have the conviction and the feeling that there is something that remains, that is always recognizable.\u003cbr\u003e\n We live in a changing world, where we face new challenges every day.

Essence is invariable, or nearly so, because if it varied, the person would no longer be the person others recognize.\u003cbr\u003e \nIf anything, one might ask whether human essence can aspire to a form of identity other than the current physical one. That is, assuming that human essence is part of the universe, while human physicality belongs to our planet, can we truly understand, on this earth, what human essence is? But perhaps the right question would be this: can understanding human essence be entirely independent of our current physicality? So much so that even if we could benefit from a new form of identity, understanding human essence would present the same difficulties as our current one?
