Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) called his spiritual philosophy “anthroposophy”, meaning “wisdom of the human being”. As a highly developed seer, he based his work on direct knowledge and perception of spiritual dimensions. He initiated a modern and universal “science of spirit”, accessible to anyone willing to exercise clear and unprejudiced thinking.
From his spiritual investigations Steiner provided suggestions for the renewal of many activities, including education (both general and special), agriculture, medicine, economics, architecture, science, philosophy, religion and the arts. Today there are thousands of schools, clinics, farms and other organizations involved in practical work based on his principles.

Other similar cases have been reported over the years - often holy men from the East - and have taken on something of a mythical status. However, they remain obscure ......

Can modern actors again become messengers through their own power of description and dramatization?Anyone with an interest in the spoken world, acting, or the future of the ......
Written in the years immediately following the Second World War, this brief booklet is a powerful meditation on evil and its eventual transformation. Focusing on the realm of 'sub-nature' or 'the subterranean spheres', Gleich shows how the various layers of the earth's interior are intimately linked with the mystery of evil.

Christ is there for all humanity.""In the old Mystery cultures the human being experienced himself as a child of the gods, or even an instrument of them. According to Rudolf Steiner's spiritual-scientific research, the birth of ......

One of anthroposophy's central aims is to enhance human powers of perception beyond the limits set by purely intellectual thinking. This is of vital importance for the ......
