The Anthroposophical Society in America
Welcome
Anthroposophy embraces a spiritual view of the human being and the cosmos, with an emphasis on knowing, rather than faith, Referred to as spiritual science, It is a path in which the human heart and hand, and especially our capacity for thinking, are essential. Anthroposophy leads, in Rudolf Steiner's words, "from the spirit in the human being to the spirit in the universe."
Humanity (ANTHROPOS) has the inherent wisdom (SOPHIA) to transform both itself and the world. Today, when many aspects of our culture are in crisis, and people are easily drawn into cynicism and despair, anthroposophy's vision of human potential is a source of hope and renewal.
By anthroposophy I understand a scientific research of the spiritual world which sees through the one sidedness of both normal, natural science and traditional mysticism. Anthroposophy seeks to develop those forces of soul not yet active in normal consciousness and science but which make
possible such a penetration into the super sensible world.
Rudolf Steiner
