Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) called his spiritual philosophy “anthroposophy”, meaning “wisdom of the human being”. As a highly developed seer, he based his work on direct knowledge and perception of spiritual dimensions. He initiated a modern and universal “science of spirit”, accessible to anyone willing to exercise clear and unprejudiced thinking.
From his spiritual investigations Steiner provided suggestions for the renewal of many activities, including education (both general and special), agriculture, medicine, economics, architecture, science, philosophy, religion and the arts. Today there are thousands of schools, clinics, farms and other organizations involved in practical work based on his principles.

The Temple Legend as a Spiritual and Moral Impulse for Evolution and its Completion by Rudolf Steiner with the Ritual Texts for the First, Second and Third Degrees
Who was Cain and what does he represent? The first part of this book invites us to revise the traditional, biblical, view of Cain as his brother's
murderer. Rudolf Steiner shows how the original Cain was ready to sacrifice his being to something higher, but this pure impulse was perverted into the desire to murder. Our earthly ......
Within Conventional science, the reductionist, materialist view asserts that matter is solely physical. Without denying the laws of matter, Dr. Hauschka shows the limitations of a science restricted by them, and points to new research which indicates the primal nature of spirit.

Not only are these genealogies irreconcilable, but the stories of the two accounts of the birth of Jesus, as given by Matthew and Luke, are also radically different. How can this be accounted for?An ancient ......
