Creating inner light in our hearts
2019-12-17 19:00 | Rudolf Steiner House, 307 Sussex Street, Sydney, NSW, 2000
“Today it is unhealthy to believe that one can do something in a particular limited area without taking into consideration the fact that since the middle of the 19th century the earth has been a single organism in regard to social relationships. One simply must take this reality into account…”
Rudolf Steiner gave us this advice a century ago and we are tasked with integrating this view into festivals like Christmas.
The iconography and customs are derived from the winter darkness of the North, while it is summer in our hemisphere.
The Uriel imagination gives us a radiant picture of the light that pervades the earth and the cosmos.
The Golden Legend is a story that connects our past evolution as human beings with the future ideal of spiritual life for all humanity.
Through the birth of the Christ-child, we can now create inner light in our hearts.
A presentation of these ideas will be given with Jessie Phelps and insights from Martin Samson, who has worked extensively with these themes. The Festival Choir will sing and musical contributions are welcome.
Starting at 7pm at Rudolf Steiner House.

Research as a path of professional and spiritual development
2019-11-19 19:00 | Rudolf Steiner House, 307 Sussex Street, Sydney, NSW, 2000
Research as a path of professional and spiritual development – Anthroposophy in action
A talk with Fiona Campbell starting at 7pm at Rudolf Steiner House.
Rudolf Steiner was first and foremost a researcher who saw any limits to knowledge as a challenge for inner growth. But he frequently urged his listeners to conduct their own research, not just follow his. One of the tasks of the School of Spiritual Science is research within the different professions but you don’t have to belong to the School to do research. So if I want to research my professional or personal practice, how do I go about it? Are my experiences valid? And what actually is research?
In this presentation, Fiona Campbell discusses the increasingly critical need for research in the Anthroposophical movement and how to go about it. But first, the path to becoming a spiritual investigator begins with understanding what is means to be a researcher. Dr. Fiona Campbell has been teaching interdisciplinary research skills and researcher development for 10 years and anthroposophical studies for 25 years. She specialises in learning and teaching development, drawing on her visual arts training, social science degrees and adult education expertise.

The karma behind the Anthroposophical community's failure to realise a threefold society
2019-10-29 19:00 | Rudolf Steiner House, 307 Sussex Street, Sydney, NSW, 2000
‘The karma behind the Anthroposophical community’s failure to realise a threefold society’
A talk by Gavin Tang
According to Rudolf Steiner himself, it was his specific spiritual task to bring the knowledge of karma and reincarnation to the world. All other major spiritual undertakings of his were things he picked up because others (other initiates) had failed to do so. Among such undertakings was the establishment of a threefold society. In fact the nature of this task is more suited to a Platonist/Arthurian stream than the Aristotlean/Grail stream that Steiner was part of. What is it in the Platonist approach that makes it more suited to bring a threefold society to realisation?
