Philosophical Speculations

As the discussion on the other thread is centered on understanding what Christ promised and prophesied in a way that has practical relevance for the course of Earthly evolution and our individual lives, and that is not "hopelessly abstract, remote, floating in the air", I would like to quo...

When multiple people specifically suggest a messaging is toxic, or people flee a messaging - instead of pointing fingers at the suggestions, perhaps the messengers should inspect their presentation and manner. Lorenzo, it's not multiple people, it's one person. By the way, have you read the message...

Final comments. It seems a common defense mechanism in this area is to lose all ability to distinguish writing styles and accuse two people of being the same person : ) Yeah... even if it's sad, I have to admit that I laughed when I saw that :D Exactly, I remember that Jim Cross argued a similar th...

That's an interesting project, Federica. I hope it helps for your orientation. By the way, Luke brought my attention to this interesting YT channel that focuses on Steiner. There are a couple of videos about his thoughts on mistranslations in PoF (Wilson translation), which seemed to make sense to ...

An example could have been useful, but the disposition to consider ...

I finally decided to add this as a comment to the geoengineering essay : "Marco, supposing there’s agreement that, from the perspective of a post-material worldview, reality at its core is of ideal nature, and the material world - including the climatic events Earth manifests in time - is the ...

I will soon read Steiner's Human Life in the Light of Spiritual Science . He gives it as a short manual for practical communication of spiritual science. As I understand it, it's about how the many can integrate spiritual science in everyday life, in a concrete way, before any level higher cognitio...

...Even as there is no contradiction between natural science and Spiritual Science, so is there no justification for saying that Spiritual Science contradicts the life of religion . In this connection I brought out points of importance in the first lecture I gave here. It is my conviction that no o...
