Quote

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.

More quotes by 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
Only when I follow my love for my objective is it I myself who act.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The higher worlds are around us. These worlds are not only heavenly worlds, not only worlds of happiness, though paradise and happiness are in them, but they are also worlds that could be terrible for the people, by dangerous facts and creatures.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
A real medicine can only exist when it penetrates into a knowledge which embraces the human being in respect to body, soul and spirit.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
In order to approach a creation as sublime as the Bhagavad-Gita with full understanding it is necessary to attune our soul to it.
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
Our task is to educate the human being in such a way that he or she can bring to expression in the right way that which is living in the whole human being, and on the other side that which puts him/her into the world in the right way.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
We differ from one another in our individual gifts which, however, belong to our inner nature.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Anthroposophie is not a religion but a tool for understanding of religions.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Our task is to harvest from the mortal world fruits for the immortal.
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
Each one of us has it in themselves to be a free spirit, just as every rose bud has in it a rose.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
The smallest thing in its rightful place can lead to the highest goals.
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
It is the death of present art when it returns again and again to the model. Use of the model is only an intermediate stage in artistic development. Create out of a living spirituality to overcome everything naturalistic.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Anthroposophy does not want to impart knowledge. It seeks to awaken life.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Where the realm of freedom of thought and action begin, the determination of individuals according to generic laws ends.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
It naturally elevates the soul to feel this intimate relationship to it's primal ground...A man then feels himself truly at home, and whenever he is lifted up through music he can say to himself: Yes, you come from other worlds, and in music you can experience your native place.
Rudolf Steiner
Image
Our highest endeavor must be to develop free human beings who are able of themselves to impart purpose and direction to their lives. The need for imagination, a sense of truth, and a feeling of responsibility—these three forces are the very nerve of education.
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.
