How we Think has consequences – in our actions – in relation to others – to Nature, to ourselves, & in the course of human evolution… Is there a way that human beings can see, & be, in, & with, the World, so that we can take hold of the process of Becoming - in such a way that it constantly develops anew - Thru this seeing & being – A seeing that becomes a cognition of the heart; a way of being that develops a moral life? To be moral is to be in right relationship. This is a living expression of spiritual reality – the essence behind the workings of this world. This kind of reality which we can seek to unveil for each other – which we can envision in every human being – is needed for us to become active co-creators – unfolding a reality of transformation – a humanizing – in all its relation-ships. Working with a Sceince of the Spirit we advance a quest for knowledge that seeks - & recognizes - the power of our personal development - which occurs in the meeting with the world - & thru the meeting with others. The act of knowing - becomes participation in these often challenging relationships - creating a wise perspective that is open to: Tolerance, developing interest, which can manifest Love. Understanding ‘the other’ as a free human being, poses the difficult trial of understanding them thru their own concepts. According to Rudolf Steiner in his “Philosophy of Freedom”: “…We must take over into our own spirit those concepts by which the other determines themselves.“ Not always an easy thing, since we have to put our own opinions & judgement aside. It is mutuality that enables true knowing, which leads to empathy, understanding & wisdom. Then a shared space can arise which not only has a center, but which is formed from the relationship of both “focal points.” ~hag RUDOLF STEINER'S CALENDAR OF THE SOUL Rudolf Steiner’s Lectures on this day ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY International Kissing Day Feast Day of the 1st Prophet – Isaiah 7:14 “Therefore the Lord shall give you by itself a sign; Behold, a virgin shall be with child and will bear a son and shall call his name Emmanuel” Feast Day of Saint Romulus of Fiesole.
