About the project

Happening motto:
"Nothing is so incredible as an answer to an unasked question."

Reinhold Niebuhr

- That’s why, Dear Friend, we are challenging you:
What questions are you coming with to Cracow?
What are you searching for?

The idea for this event grew out of
the experience of the movement Communion and Liberation (CL).
The movement was initiated by Fr. Luigi Giussani in Italy in 1954.
Today the movement is present in over 70 countries all over the world.
Basic aspects of the common human experience are discussed in Fr. Giussani’s book The Religious Sense. These aspects are important for every human being no matter who the person is. It is this publication that has directly inspired the content of the happening:

"Paradoxically, in The Religious Sense little is said about God and much is said about human beings. Much is said about our 'whys', much about our ultimate needs (…) It is not a book (...) only for Christians or believers. It is (...) for all human beings who take their humanity seriously. (...) The drama of the world today is the result not only of the absence of God but also and above all of the absence of humankind, of the loss (...) of human destiny and identity."
/taken from the introduction by Card. J. M. Bergoglio to The Religious Sense/

The happening is an endeavour to reach the criteria of the heart that reside inside everyone and are the fundamental element of human nature. These criteria allow for the personal verification of every proposition, including that of the Church.
