**BURNING MAN 2003 THEME!!!**

BEYOND BELIEF

"What is any religion? A little ritual, a little superstition, and
some magicS It's not a strictly spiritual affair; it has
psychological roles to fulfill. You might not want it to be a
religion based on your own experienceS but that's like wanting to
clean up your dreams".

– Gary Snyder

Beyond belief, beyond the dogmas, creeds, and metaphysical ideas of
religion, there exists immediate experience. It is from this primal
world that living faith arises. The intention of Beyond Belief is to
explore this mystery. In 2003 we will invite participants to create
interactive rites, ritual processions, elaborate images, shrines,
icons, and temples: visions of realities profoundly other and far
greater than our conscious selves. Our theme will occupy that
ambiguous territory that lies between reverence and ridicule, faith
and belief, the absurd and the dazzlingly sublime. The human urge to
make events, objects, actions and personalities sacred is protean. It
can fix on and inhabit anyone or anything. This year our art theme
will release this spirit in the Black Rock Desert.
