Space, Time, and the Here and Now: Awakening to the Task

AN IN-PERSON PRESENTATION BY ANDREW WOLPERT

The enormity of world events challenges our apparent powerlessness in the face of so much inhumanity. As part of our preparation for Michaelmas, awakening to the immense potential in our unfinished human evolution we can affirm our confidence and courage for the future. Rudolf Seiner’s pioneering spiritual research and visionary achievement as an artist also serve to awaken us to our tasks to collaborate socially and creatively. Our cosmic origins and potential were manifest in the architecture, sculpture, and painting of the First Goetheanum. The tragic fire that destroyed it was transformative, and Rudolf Steiner’s undeterred resolve to realize his task came to renewed expression in the Foundation Stone Meditation, a meditation that formed the core of the refounded Anthroposophical Society.
