People often debate over the ideals vs. reality, and in many cases (if not most) the ideals are compromised. We all want to make the world a better place, but wouldn’t it be nearly impossible to achieve if we often downgrade the ideals? The Olympics may have become a mega money-making event, but its motto (citius, altius, and fortius) should always be understood as a rejection to compromise the ideals. Making world records requires painstaking efforts and sacrifices; there are only a few individuals in the world who can reach that level, and yet the records made are to be broken. Being a champion in the Olympics is one thing, but breaking a record is every athlete’s ambition. This means that the already high bar is to be raised again and again. The level of ideal is upgraded, not downgraded. With this food for thought, Sacred Bridge is committed to materializing ideals that in this case cover mutual understanding and respect, and collective efforts, among individuals, communities, societies, and nations. In this mission, culture is of utmost importance. It is time to give culture a chance when politics and economics alone have often failed to provide solutions. Through culture, Sacred Bridge attempts to pave the way by integrating not only our past and present, but also our traditional-modern-contemporary thoughts and practices. In this integration, transmission of roots, knowledge and logic is enforced over people of different genres, origins and generations.
