Toda inmigración conlleva una paradoja: la amenaza de la pérdida de las tradiciones y de valores propios para adaptarse a una cultura diferente; y la esperanza de continuar y evolucionar la cultura a la que se pertenece en un territorio ajeno al de nuestro nacimiento. Autobiografía familiar, Las genealogías rastrea los orígenes centroeuropeos de los Glantz, sigue los pasos de la forzada peregrinación, asiste al arraigo y al florecimiento en el suelo de México, todo desde la perspectiva fervorosa y asombrada de la autora, que da testimonio de la epopeya de los suyos.

Collana: Le opere sapienziali Osho annuncia una rinascita dello Zen, inevitabile quando ci si trova a confronto con la propria fragilità: “La nostra vita è molto fragile, è come scrivere sulla sabbia... l’onda di marea o una brezza selvaggia cancellano ogni scritto”, una fragilità oggi sempre più evidente. Ma nello Zen diviene un punto di forza, come Kyozan – un Maestro Zen – illustra nel testo, disegnando un cerchio nell’aria, nel quale mima l’ideogramma del Buddha.

Il nostro venire al mondo è una ricerca, come Osho spiega: “La ricerca della verità da parte dell’uomo è eterna. È un lungo pellegrinaggio senza inizio; anche se arriva a una fine, non ha inizio. La nostra ricerca prosegue da secoli e millenni, ora in una forma ora in un’altra. Anche chi, all’apparenza, non sta cercando consapevolmente la verità, è alla sua ricerca. L’essere stesso dell’uomo è una ricerca della verità. Questo è il tormento e l’estasi dell’essere umano”.

I thought I'd escaped being given to an alien warrior. I was wrong. I was one hour away from washing out of the Alien Bride Games. None of the Khanavai warriors had chosen me, and I was scheduled on the next shuttle off the filming station. Then, a bright red alien passed me in a hallway—and the next thing I knew, we were all over each other. Bad enough that my name had been drawn in the Bride Lottery. Now, even though they're supposedly over, I'm back in the Games. And not the usual ones, either—a whole new set of challenges, just for me. Guess it'll make for good television back home.
