The Sanctuary
An allegory of our inner truth, our outer conditioning, and the exploiting monster that dwells in the gap between them, feeding on our energy.
The story unfolds on Planet F, where intelligent animals rule an anthropomorphic civilization. A mental pandemic, however, is sweeping through their world, turning their sanctuary into a savage safari park.
One morning, an animal family discovers a fatally wounded tortoise in their backyard. He is revived, but his memory is gone. Together, they begin a searching journey: into who he is and who they are, how to face the monsters within their own minds, and how to return to their inner Sanctuary.

“In the field of living, there is a dangerous gap between the felt truth and conditioned reality,
where our mind is colonized, our energy exploited. This work brings our attention to that gap
and asks us to face what dwells there.”
– Dr. Ming Way
