Image
Anthroposophy does not want to impart knowledge. It seeks to awaken life.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
For every one step that you take in the pursuit of higher knowledge, take three steps in the perfection of your own character
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Every human being shall see in each and all of his fellow-men a hidden divinity... that every human being is made in the likeness of the Godhead. When that time comes there will be no need for any religious coercion for then every meeting between one man and another will of itself be in the nature of a religious rite, a sacrament.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge, to guide the Spiritual in the human being to the Spiritual in the universe.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Seek the truly practical life, but seek it in such a way that it does not blind you to the spirit working in it. Seek the spirit, but seek it not out of spiritual greed, but so that you may apply it in the genuinely practical life.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The task of understanding is not to replicate in conceptual form something that already exists, but rather to create a wholly new realm, that together with the world given to our senses constitutes the fullness of reality.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge, to guide the spiritual in the human being to the spiritual in the universe... Anthroposophists are those who experience, as an essential need of life, certain questions on the nature of the human being and the universe, just as one experiences hunger and thirst.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
We find the instrument for the Knowledge of God in ourselves But we find God everywhere.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Where is the book in which the teacher can read about what teaching is? The children themselves are this book. We should not learn to teach out of any book other than the one lying open before us and consisting of the children themselves.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
May my soul bloom in love for all existence.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Geometry is knowledge that appears to be produced by human beings, yet whose meaning is totally independent of them.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Where God's presence is no longer a tenable proposition and where his absence is no longer a felt, indeed overwhelming weight, certain dimensions of thought and creativity are no longer attainable.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The sensory world is the school, without which the human being would never come to the spirit.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
A race or nation stands so much the higher, the more perfectly its members express the pure, ideal human type ... The evolution of man through the incarnations in ever higher national and racial forms is thus a process of liberation [leading to] an ideal future.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Anthroposophie is not a religion but a tool for understanding of religions.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
One can only understand history and all of social life, including today’s social life, if one pays attention to people’s racial characteristics. And one can only understand all that is spiritual in the correct sense if one first examines how this spiritual element operates within people precisely through the color of their skin.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Reverence awakens in the soul a sympathetic power through which we attract qualities in the beings around us, which would otherwise remain concealed.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
A real artist may create his picture in a lonely desert... gods look over his shoulder he creates in their company. What does he care whether or not anybody admires his picture?
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The smallest thing in its rightful place can lead to the highest goals.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Where the realm of freedom of thought and action begin, the determination of individuals according to generic laws ends.
Rudolf Steiner
