The Butterfly Project
Butterflies symbolize different things to different cultures. In Early Christianity[1], the butterfly was a symbol of the soul. Commonly, the Butterfly symbolizes change and transformation; this ensues when an ordinary caterpillar metamorphose into a beautiful butterfly.
When we
strive to become moral individuals – the so called inner-transformation – something
similar to the Butterfly’s life cycle happens. We metamorphose the old Self
into a new Self, changing deep-rooted and unhealthy habits into new, healthy
ones.
It is a
continuous, gradual process that requires individual discipline and
determination. A process wherein one’s Thought
aligned with Will propels them towards
their moral and intellectual progress[2].
Looking for materials and tools to help us on this journey;
challenging our ways of thinking, learning to create new habits and behavior -
the Butterfly Project proposes the study, reflection and practical application
of the study matter;
Let’s
get inspired to work on our inner-transformation, to make every effort to
become a better person, and to understand our role and duties in life.
Let’s put
our moral transformation in a project mode!
