Pressenza Mendoza, 09/16/1910
This said then:
In Psychology Notes, the most recent book published by Silo (Ulrica Ediciones, Rosario, Argentina, 2006), the editor presents a "biography" of the author of thirty-three words.
This synthesis was sent by the same Silo with an attitude that has been settled: a biographical had never made by the author in excess of half a page. So what we are going to present below is a sort of biographical reference that is not authorized under our responsibility and the desire to provide some information closer to the person and work of this man who has talked and written about all issue except on himself.
In 1999, in a pamphlet entitled The Thought Shiloh, wrote: The atmosphere surrounding Silo uniqueness does not come from their ideas, acceptable or not, are clear and have a well structured speech. Rather, we must seek the reasons for the mystery and ambiguity that surrounds it on three factors, two outside and one that he is responsible. Outside factors: 1. the mental state of the Argentine leadership, military and civilians, and 2. the attitude of the local media. 3. What is Silo is attributable to his troublesome independence of the factors of power and the exercise of their freedom.
The first to prohibit and defame Shiloh was the dictator Juan Carlos Ongania. His most persistent pursuers were Jose Lopez Rega, head the "triple A" strip for police and Ramon J. Camps, genocide convict. These characters perceived that the preaching of Shiloh by the "no violence" to endanger their interests and advocating violent system. So, pursued their ideas, and threatened attacks and murders committed against members of the Movement created spontaneously by these ideas.
Moreover, Silo is a man of simple and austere habits, oblivious to the spectacle of power and publicity. Not a man of "media relations." Finally, he thought, written and spoken on all issues of concern to humans, grazing or intruding strongly the field of psychology, religion and politics, always promoting the methodology of nonviolence social change activities and staff. In addition, interest has been injured, has put in place to ridiculous and has ignored the dispensers of fame. But the system is irritating to the Silo, although he did not propose it, is a leader, a spiritual guide. A person whose conduct is inspiring ideas which fill a gap and, above all, they gave a different future.
"You think, go and spend" has been the pragmatic approach. But an original thought, covering the existence and human experience building the commitment of very diverse people and lead to a voluntary organization active and growing, this has been "intolerable" for the right thinking.
Harassment always ran the same way: they tried to detract from their contributions, they hid their writings and sayings to plagiarize, it misrepresented its key ideas using them as advertising slogans. None of this prevented her worldview broke through and his words reached the heart of the common people.
The intent of degrading is that underlies the different injuries that have been made since the power shift. It is, indeed, unbiased look of Russian scholars that distinguished him with an honorary doctorate in 1993. So we wrote in 1999.
The spread of non-violent ideology led him in 1981 to give lectures in various cities in Europe, which included a tour event in India. Events were difficult to frame because Silo gave his message to thousands of people gathered in living rooms and indoor arenas and large open spaces such as Choupaty beach in Bombay. It is well known, what they called the "non-violent current Latin American roots." Later his lectures have been on stage universities, cultural centers and public road most people, achieving a growing membership and involves millions of people in 140 countries.
Recently, the position of the mass media seems to have changed and is getting the recognition of institutions, personalities and media in Europe, Asia and, more tentatively, in our country. The media has lowered the barriers of prejudice and are willing to allow freedom of expression of this thinker. In 2006, his preaching for world peace, which was centered on nuclear disarmament, he won the squares, streets and for the first time, television screens, cinemas and stadiums. Today, millions of listeners Shiloh and many more seem to be available to hear a good man whose word inspires gentle spirit.
His last public exhibition in the mountains have become mass pilgrimages. In 1999, to mark the 30 th anniversary of his first public harangue about four thousand people came to listen to "tip cows," the lonely place where he first spoke to a couple hundred people. In 2004 there were about seven thousand, and in 2007 the number grew to more than 10 000. The park is visited by permanent built there and has been called by the press "Watchtower faith."
Since 2002, when it presents Shiloh The Message (a rescue of the individual in accordance with their eyes all social solidarity) have emerged worldwide urban and Parks Facilities. These spaces for meditation and spiritual inspiration are being developed on five continents. Some of them are Parque Punta de Vacas, Springs, La Reja, Caucaia Kohanoff and South America, Red Bluff in North America and Toledo Attigliano in Europe and already started projects, the Parks of Asia and Africa.
personal references are concise Silo da: his name is Mario Luis Rodríguez Cobos, was born in Mendoza on January 6, 1938. He is married to Ana Cremaschi, the father of Alexander and Frederick and resides in a small town (Chacras) around Mendoza. He is a writer and, in recent years, partially abandoned their agricultural activities.
His major works published are: Humanize the Earth, Contributions to Thought, The Winged Lion, Guided Experiences, Universal Root Myths, Letters to my friends, Dictionary of New Humanism, Silo Speaks and Psychology Notes. Have also published two volumes of his complete works. These books have been translated and published in major languages, languages \u200b\u200band dialects and readings of young protesters, the New Left, humanists, environmentalists and pacifists. From year 2002, as we said, Silo launched The Message, a spiritual dimension.
Had that sketch a profile, we would say that Shiloh is the ideologue of a school of thought: New or Universalist Humanism (or Humanism Siloist, but he rejects this name), a social-political movement is not violent: the Humanist Movement and spiritual expression: The Message.
Shiloh's doctrine includes, in sum, the key issues of concern to humans. Luis Ammann
