Philosophical Speculations

I'd like to share a Facebook post from the Anthroposophy page here. The post itself is about how the distinct modes of engagement between the AI engines of GPT and Grok are felt from the author's perspective, which is interesting, but I am sharing it here simply because of the fantastic animated ...

Maybe we can appreciate better the value of practical thinking by remembering that we are far less in fully conscious micromanaging control of our thought process. Words, grammar, logical trains, etc., are driven somewhat instinctively/intuitively. Yet, all these low-level skills have been forged in ...

It seems we have established there is no principal impossibility that the Church body can be transformed and immortalized (when understanding the immortalizing process from the proper spiritual perspective, as you indicated), when we take the Impulse that Christ already brought to the Earthly ...

When we unite with the Divine essence of evil via Intuitive knowledge, can we really describe it as " evil " that we are uniting with? It seems to me that it is only within ordinary intellectual and astral phenomenology that the concept of evil, as clearly delineated from the Good, still maintains ...

I will chime in here again briefly to point out that this is another instance where Tomberg's pedagogical style is misinterpreted as operating at the level of fact in the manner of Steinerian spiritual science. In saying that evil cannot be known it its essence, Tomberg is reiterating the ...

Neither Satan, nor Belial, nor Lucifer, nor Mephistopheles have ever deprived anyone of his freedom. Temptation is their only weapon and this presupposes the freedom of he who is tempted. But possession by an "evil spirit" has nothing to do with temptation. It is invariably the same thing as with ...

Let’s try to understand the intellectual mode of existence with a practical problem. In today’s informational age, there are many techniques that aim to provide security for the communication channels. To understand the need for that, consider the classical man-in-the-middle attack. In the early age ...

So we see the Catholic project, by which I mean VT and Rodriel's orientation toward the Church and its future evolutionary role, is not about holding some intellectual vision of the preordained superiority and centrality of the Church, of how events must only unfold in one direction around its axis ...

But we know this is not quite the case, and if anything, Steiner's push for the CC shows how every school and every workshop cannot magically become a church, existing as an atomic unit, and each unit "forming their own church in their hearts". He said this atomization, which is already ...

☀️... I am in concord with what you say. And one of the reasons is that Rodriel’s vision goes further than what you focus on above, and it is that 'further' which rings dissonantly within me. I don’t imply that we should get round the Church as a leprous dog. My only goal is to highlight what we are ...
