Who am I and who are you
2018-09-11 19:00 | Rudolf Steiner House, 307 Sussex Street, Sydney, NSW, 2000
A talk with Andrew Wolpert. The phenomena of gender dysphoria and gender fluidity in the context of the ancient Temple exhortation and unavoidable modern challenge: “Know yourself!” Meeting each other beyond the categories of race, religion and social class has become the accepted norm for us today, but the relevance of gender and gender orientation is still not uncontested. Does the panorama of our unfinished evolution given to us in anthroposophy offer a context that sheds light on this theme that is so prevalent in our modern public culture and give deeper meaning to the quest for self knowledge?

What are the spiritual, soul and health consequences. The post-truth world is an item on the 2018 Bilderberg meeting to discuss its strategic implications. Should we also have awareness and interest in this? Steiner indicated that we would get to the point where truth was no longer relevant in society. Have we reached this point and what does it signify, spiritually psychologically and physically.
