YOU SHOULD BUILD A STACK! It is easy to build a stack. The shape is traditional and known by every human being. Everyone is able to build one. Your stack will have an aesthetic, a symbolic function - and it´s your individual global stack! The stack stands for a symbol of the relationship between you and the people of the world. It is a sign of non-verbal accordance and non-verbal communication between every constructed stack - between you and the world! It is unimportant from which nationality or which cultural background you and your stack come. To build a stack means to do something to show your accordance and inner peace with people. Every stack creates a relationship of communication between people. To create your own stack is an expression of your inner peace! |
PHILOSOPHY The GLOBAL STACKS are a remembrance of the Culmination of Stones (stone directories), or made from other materials, that were used in the ancient Greece as markers for the roads. Today stone directories, can be found in many countries and regions of the world, mostly in mountainous areas. They are important to show the walkers their paths.
