Anthroposophical Society-Rudolf Steiner

…like the black hand aka Skull & Bones………

…

Anthroposophy is by the old Austrian Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) was heavily affected. Steiner, born in Kraljevec, visited the secondary school Neustadt in Vienna and studied engineering. During that time he learns the literature professor Karl Julius Schröer know him for the work of Goethe’s interest begins. Even before completing his engineering studies at Steiner is the Goethe archive for Weimar. He doctorate in 1890 at the Faculty of Philosophy at the University of Rostock. He learns his first wife Eunike know. By Marie von Sivers he comes in contact with the theosophy (God’s wisdom), which assumes that the word of God to give divine wisdom is a gift (cf. 1 Cor 1). These Christian philosophy moves from the Alexandrian fathers of Hildegard von Bingen, Jakob Böhme, Gichtel, Oetinger, Schelling up to the Russian Sophiologen Solovyov, Berdjajew and Bulgakov.May be Changed can not do this with the sgn. Theosophistical companies[Wala/Weleda], which on the floor of the modern occultism and spiritualism, and which referred to in one of the following numbers. The representatives of these currents have always distanced them, such as the student-Berdjajew Böhme. Ernst Bloch also denied in his work “principle of hope” expressly opposed.
Due to the intense preoccupation with Goethe Steiner also learns his thoughts on the metamorphosis and color theory to know, in the belief anthroposophical a special role to play. Initially Steiner behaves rather critical of Theosophy. Even 1897, he writes: “I would advise anyone who together with the Theosophists, believed to be complete. Man hears nothing as a speechwriter modes, the morning countries in asia writings are borrowed, without a trace of content. Inner experiences are nothing but hypocrisy. way they speak of the highest intelligence, acts seductive. ” Nevertheless, it a few years later, in 1902 - probably under the influence Marie von Sivers, which he later married, - the word Theosophists leaders of Germany and from 1902 until 1913 did its general secretary. Together with Marie von Sivers is he a member of the school esoteric Annie Besants and thus belongs to the inner circle of leadership theosophical movement. For replacement, but it was originally due to its already expressed criticism of his close ties to East Asian traditions. The final separation cut sets finally, as Annie Besant announced that the Hindu boy Krishnamurti a reincarnation of Christ took place. Since this is not Steiner century, it is excluded and founded the turn of the year 1912/13 the Anthroposophical Society. ” As a global center is in Dornach near Basel built the Goetheanum. This construction falls in the New Year 1922/23 night an arson attack on the victim and is only three years after Steiner’s death reopened. Even before Steiner has with esoteric, Jakob Böhme and the Rosicrucians. 1919 he founded the first Waldorf school. Shortly afterwards it comes to the development of the anthroposophical medicine along with the doctor Ita Wegmann, and finally to employment with the bio-dynamic farming and its own health teachings for “soul-needy” children. Steiner also plays an important role in the formulation of the texts for the declaration of faith and the worship of the 1922 founded Christian Community. ” (Also this is one of the following numbers more detail.) These texts are considered “directly from the spiritual world gives”. As Steiner, 30 March 1925 in Dornach dies, it will be at the cremation as a “friend of God” and “human leader.” _____________________________________
The lesson

The anthroposophy wants an “opening the gates to a supernatural world.” The man is from and returns intellectual emerged in the distant future but in a spiritual existence. This perception remains but leave the faith. Steiner himself fought against, as a religious sect founder or founders referred to as “anthroposophy, by focusing on the fundamentals of knowledge, nothing secterian itself, and no new religion confusion.” Anthroposophy is on the faith, because they have a knowledge that is there to the belief could only ajar. Man lives not just between birth and death on earth, but also between death and a new birth in a higher intellectual level. Every birth is thus a return from the spiritual world, and every death there is a recurrence. During this cycle unfolds man to ever higher levels of its self. The link between these phases is the karma as extract of the spiritual life. Man is composed of body, soul and spirit, from a physical body, a body ether, an astral body and an “I-organisation”. In death separates the astral body of (mental), and I will be offset by higher spirit beings (gods and angels), and already led to a higher perfection advanced human spirit in its development. So it comes to the emergence of other spirit beings as self (Manas), living spirit (Budhi), and humanities man (Atma).

The World

Steiner asserted itself in the “Akasha Chronicle” (inspired by the Sanskrit word “Akasha”, which means life ether, or empty space means) read. This world’s Chronicle contains an interpretation of the cosmos and the human future, and can only be deciphered by insiders. Steiner says he must remain silent about this, everyone who has something such sources know knew why ……. That price, but he gives that the world in a constant process was progressing, and the present world is a part of a constantly evolving His form. He speaks of seven phases, the planetary awareness levels: Saturn, the sun, moon, Earth, Jupiter, Venus and volcano. In Saturn’s condition was heat, in subsequent solar air condition and light, the moon state water. They were, however, the three planets have not been separated. Also, the earth itself have these three had other forms. The development of human begins with Saturn’s condition. The development of self is in the phase of the earth condition. Finally, there would be seven different times (the polarican, hyperbora, lemurican, Atlantic, after atlantis …….) and seven epochs (altindian, altpersican, Egyptian-chaldaican-Babylonian, Greek, Latin, rational and two still outsourced the 6th and 7th after atlantis time).

Christ

The highest form of self is that of Christ. It is, according to Steiner even Yahweh, a preparer and “Christ-reflector of light” seen. Jesus himself paced the Way “only with the baptism in the River Jordan and not with his birth. In this baptism of Jesus, I left the former bodyguard to the divine nature of Christ. On the death of Jesus was the ground on her real body, because the “nature of Christ was poured out to her.” For example, through the “mystery of Golgotha” I am development.
On his way to the mystery of Christ, the person to independence and freedom. He can also lose attachment to space. That I can only coming to grips with the physical world grow.

Waldorf pedagogy

Steiner also speaks in this context of the “right setting for the mystery of Golgotha”. In the classroom, the influence that “man pants: the taking of the Divine in nature and history.” The issue is the demand that the teaching of the Christ anthroposophic understanding them out. Steiner calls from teachers that teach everything as a “religious facts” as a “nature worship”. “Without this consecration” could not teach. Teachers and students are part of a “cosmic management system” and a “pedagogical Schamanism”, which differs from teachers about the parents, the “spirit guides” or guru of “esoteric training” particularly initiated to the “spirit beings”, and the angels Archangels, is the soul to their re-incarnation of the “spiritual world” guide formulated Steiner. There are now over 550 worldwide schools with about 70,000 students.

The anthroposophical medicine

Has its own, from the usual homeopathy discriminating form, the doctrine of the four essential elements of the people (see above) is based. They work the head of god, chest and limb system, which interact to think, feel and want.

The bio-dynamic farming

Closes an intellectual influence on plant growth and the behavior of animals is not enough. It is a kind of soil homeopathy. Unlike chemical fertilizers, which causes an increased growth, it is the recovery for soil. By special, highly diluted drugs, the self-healing power of the land and its life force to be activated. The harvested it “natural remedies” encounter with wide sections of the population at large consent. A role played by the Winking, and the defense of “dangerous earth rays”, although this anthroposophical remedies with nothing to do. They are in their manufacture rhythmically shaken and after the harvest moon rhythms. Under the trademark “Demeter” for the products of approximately 1,000 businesses worldwide sales.

Notes

For Christ Steiner has a paramount importance of the “mystery of Golgotha”. Six Elohim combine to logos, a seventh impact from the Moon. Thus, Christ is not that unique significance, as in Christianity.
Although Steiner is not the ego on the same level with God, but considers both from the same substance coming. This unit is being modest in contrast to the dispute after being moderate Christian opinion.
When Steiner stems from the physical world of a spiritual world. According to Christian belief was everything through the creation of God.
Steiner’s doctrine of rebirth is the Christian belief in the resurrection. Steiner also believes that, in the bedroom I and the rest of the body astral body and that of others “occupied” could be reminiscent of occult thoughts.
Steiner pedagogy has a cult, “liturgical” character. Despite all the positive experiences of Waldorf students will not only religious and theological concerns expressed by parents of former Waldorf students are also educational objections. The anthroposophy comes while the alternative trend in our society in many areas very well, but Steiner is a renewal of the ancient mystery religions. People are using the “inauguration” in mental secrets to a higher completion, and finally to the “deification” led.
The Anthroposoph “insight and share in the world salvation.”
Steiner problem are statements like “The white race is the future” or “The Negro race is not part of Europe”. Although certain phrases in his time had not assumed the significance, as it is no longer tolerable, it remains but the accusation of anti-Semitism upright, even if the leaders of the Anthroposophical Society mitigate these statements today or reinterpret it try.
