Finally, my talk will focus on aspects of the challenges we face at the beginning of this the third decade of the 21st century?

Study group on Philosophy of Freedom
2020-12-16 12:30 - 13:30 | Rudolf Steiner House, 307 Sussex Street, Sydney, NSW, 2000
Intuitive Thinking as a Spiritual Path: A Philosophy of Freedom

This book is one of Rudolf Steiner’s definitive texts and one that Steiner himself believed would have the longest life and the greatest spiritual and cultural consequences. It was written as a phenomenological account of the results of observing the human soul according to the methods of natural science.
Readers will not find abstract philosophy here, but a step-by-step account of how a person may come to experience living, intuitive thinking – the conscious experience of a purely spiritual content.
The next meeting is 16 December but this is an ongoing study group meeting every fortnight at Rudolf Steiner House at 12:30pm.
Everyone is welcome.

Inner Work Module 1
2021-01-16 10:00 - 2021-01-20 13:00 | Online
Inner Work provides a gateway to self-discovery and personal insight for parents and teachers dedicated to supporting the harmonization of a child’s individuality.

This mission requires a deeper understanding of self for the practitioner whose duty involves such a lofty goal. It requires a bridge to be built between insight and application in the art of educational methods that address the needs of a growing human being in a healthy way.

The over-emphasis of the intellect over our sensory nature is one of the challenges of modern education, but by grounding our practice in our sensory wisdom, contemplation, and artistic reflection we can find a deeper understanding of our role as teachers and parents in the development of our communities’ children. The development of the intellect is grounded in the imagination, but to reach this hallowed ground we must embark on a pilgrimage of inner work.
On this inner-work journey, Dr. Lakshmi Prasanna provides a pathway of discovery towards a new art of education. A pathway where the very soul and spirit of all practitioners are nurtured, stretched, and celebrated as we move forward together for the sake of our world’s children.

How to Participate
This journey will begin over five consecutive days for 90 minutes per day. Afterward we will gather together one day each week for four weeks for 90 minutes to deepen our understanding, reflect, and receive inner and outer homework for the coming week.
