The Temple of Good Will (TGW) is an ecumenical monument in the shape of a seven sided pyramid, located in Brazil's capital. It was conceived and built by José de Paiva Netto, President of the Legion of Good Will (LGW), who inaugurated it on October, 21 1989. The labyrinth is in the shape of a spiral and is located in the nave of the Temple of Good Will. It begins in a counter clockwise path towards the center of the labyrinth, stepping on the dark marble floor. This represents the challenging journey of human beings facing the difficulties of life. At the center, the pilgrim steps on a bronze plate that separates the dark marble from the light color marble floor, and he/she stays beneath the crystal, which is at the top of the Temple of Good Will (a seven sided pyramid). This represents the passage from the dark to the light colored path, when the pilgrim walks in a clockwise direction to reflect upon the opportunity of his/her spiritual enlightenment to face any kind of situation in life, through a higher sense of comprehension and living. The journey ends at the Throne and Altar of God, which is an artistic representation of divinity through the four elements of nature (fire, wind, earth and water).
