Rudolf Steiner

If man wants to obtain knowledge of the greatness and happiness of these worlds, then is nothing else possible than that he also will be introduced to the dangerous, with the fearfulness that they contain. One is not possible without the other.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The sun with loving light makes bright for me each day, the soul with spirit power gives strength unto my limbs. In sunlight shining clear I revere, Oh God, the strength of humankind, which thou has planted in my soul, that I may with all my might, may love to work and learn. From thee stream light and strength to thee rise love and thanks.

Love is higher than opinion. If people love one another the most varied opinions can be reconciled - thus one of the most important tasks for humankind today and in the future is that we should learn to live together and understand one another. If this human fellowship is not achieved, all talk of development is empty.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
For what lies inside of man is the whole spiritual cosmos in condensed form. In man's inner organism we have an image of the entire cosmos.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
We have to live over into the other we have to dissolve with our soul into the other.
Rudolf Steiner

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
Ultimately all knowing, from the highest to the lowest, is the result of experience it arises on the way of experiences.
