Nysa is a paradise, a mountain or a valley, which according to the greek mythological geography is located in Thrace, Naxos, Euboea, Helix, Parnassus and even farther, in Syria, Arabia, Egypt, Ethiopia. There, in the hands of the water Nymphs (Dryades) Dionysus was raised. The high frequenced cry of the sacred infant in an unprecedented, maniac, initiatory ritual inaugurates the passing from life to death and vice versa until the fear of death is transformed into the lust for life.

Nysa est un paradis, une montagne ou une vallée qui, d’après la géographie de la mythologie grecque serait situé entre la Thrace, l’Eubée, la Béotie, le Parnasse et s’étendrait même plus loin jusqu’en Syrie, en Égypte ou en Éthiopie. C’est là, sous la garde des Dryades que Dionysos fut élevé. C’est là que le cri suraigu de l’enfant divin a résonné dans un vacarme sans précédent. Ce cri qui est le rituel du passage de la vie à la mort et de la mort à la vie jusqu’à ce que la peur de la mort se transforme en soif de vivre.
