Disappearing of which patient help in finding an appropriate lecture by Trick', much else in this issue is concerned. Though it may not Rudolf Steiner for this issue. be apparent, this question has been sharpened by the events of The cover design is by Mr John Wilkes. 1969. Many people have spoken or written about the contrast between man's technical ability and his social failures. But it has not been seen clearly enough that the kind of thinking of which man is today such a master, and which has enabled him to step on the moon, is essentially concerned with space, and with time only as it is expressed in spatial movement; while the real understanding of human individuality has to leave space alto gether, and is concerned with time in a different way. A wide spread, not fully conscious feeling that this problem exists may well be at work in the profoundly ambivalent attitude of humanity to its latest achievement. (These notes have to be written before the November Apollo mission.) In ordinary life, we understand other people and ourselves through the sequence of experience in time. A more far- reaching understanding depends upon finding our way back, at first in a very general and tentative way, into the kind of existence which preceded for each of us the taking on of an earthly body. Behind the world-wide student unrest, which Mile Courtais describes as it affects France, an intense dis satisfaction with knowledge limited to spatial conceptions (even to a great extent in historical studies) is at work. For msmy young people, the only experience that does something to re-unite them with their pre-natal existence is found through music. Again and again between 1900 and his death in 1925 Rudolf Steiner gave descriptions, made possible by his clear and disciplined initiate vision, of the experience which the human soul and spirit pass through between death and a new birth. He showed how difficult it is to describe this experience in human language; it could only be done by means of com parisons which are always in some way inadequate. But one of Printed in Great Britain by Robert Cunningham and Sons Lid, Alva the best comparisons, which he uses in the lecture on 'The 4 E D I T O R I A L N O T E S E D I T O R I A L N O T E S 5 Ear' here printed and elsewhere, is with the experience of that what he may have to endure has a meaning, both for music. others and for himself. * * * For fifty years now, as Dr Boie points out in this issue, much patient work has been devoted to putting Rudolf Steiner's in The great achievements of medicine in our century are also dications about the treatment of cancer into practice. Many based upon a spatial thinking. Indeed it would seem absurd to who turn to his article will do so with the urgent, and entirely most people today for them to be based on anything else, for justified question 'How far is this work succeeding?' And they the physical body is incontestably a spatial thing. And it is may grow impatient with all he has to say about the place of taken for granted that illnesses are essentially mechanical mistletoe in the history of the earth and about the myth of failures, though in a machine even more complicated than man Baldur. As the end of his article shows, those who use the constructs himself. If 'psychological factors' are thought of mistletoe therapy are deeply concerned to express their results only in terms of behaviour, as Mr John Davy describes, these in a form which can interest researchers and practitioners in can be seen as spatial too. general.

Boletín53 Editorial Apreciado Socio/a, Este Boletín, está conformado por un interesante Dossier sobre Agroho- meopatía. Ha sido por casualidad que podamos contar con el profesor Radko Tichavsky, una de las personas que más está contribuyendo al desa- rrollo de la homeopatía para los cultivo y para las plantas. Creemos que es un profesional con unas ideas que van muy en la línea que seguimos en la escuela; y, además, es un tema poco desarrollado a nivel bi- bliográfico. Es por esta razón, que estamos muy contentos de poder contar con la posibilidad de organizar un Seminario sobre Holohomeopatía para la Agricultura, los próximos 23 y 24 de Julio. Estamos seguros que será una buena oportunidad de conocer a este maestro. Esperemos que nos pueda aclarar las dudas sobre la utilización de los remedios homeopáticos para la mejora y el rendimiento de las plantas. Hemos incluido también la biografía del matrimonio Kolísko. Fueron discí- pulos de Rudolf Steiner, pionero en la utilización de los remedios homeopá- ticos para las plantas; sus ideas de biodinámica son aún, hoy en día, de máxima actualidad. Los estudios de los austriacos Eugen y Lili Kolísko, y, posteriormente, de cientos de investigadores más, marcaron una línea científica en agrohomeopatía. Reciban un saludo.

  • Valentin Tomberg, Rudolf Steiner
    [The following article was published in the Sophia Foundation newsletter – Starlight, vol. 6, no. 2 (Fall 2006), pp. 5-8] RUDOLF STEINER, VALENTIN TOMBERG, AND THE RETURN OF CHRIST IN THE ETHERIC Robert Powell In his Introduction to Valentin Tomberg’s book Christ and Sophia, Christopher Bamford writes in a most beautiful way concerning Valentin Tomberg as a Platonist. Without developing this important theme further, I would like to add something with respect to certain remarks made by Christopher Bamford in the following quote from his Introduction: Tomberg was, in fact, one of the first anthroposophists to take up Christ’s reappearance in the etheric, this most precious fruit of Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual research. Although Tomberg had alluded to Christ’s etheric return previously in two (1931) articles reprinted in Early Articles (“The Deepening of Conscience, which Results in Etheric Vision” and “Suffering as a Preparation for Etheric Vision”), in this lecture course he went into it in great detail. Interestingly, two pages of the typescript from lecture 6 entered circulation with the heading “From a lecture by Rudolf Steiner, Stockholm, 1910.” As such, until the mistake was realized, people quoted from them as if they were by Steiner himself.1 What is referred to here? Firstly: Thirteen years after Rudolf Steiner’s death, Valentin Tomberg spoke in detail about the return of Christ in the etheric realm in his lectures “The Four Sacrifices of Christ and the Return of Christ in the Etheric” now published in English translation as an Appendix to Christ and Sophia. These lectures were held in Rotterdam, Holland, in 1938.

In health and illness, in medicine and nutrition, in all sorts of technological aspects, in global climate issues, in space travel – almost everywhere we look, we encounter not only the many possible positive applications of various directions in chemistry but also the risks they entail, which must not be overlooked. Chemistry, therefore, is included in all school curriculums today as a matter of course. By exposing young people to multiple points of contact with this important science and introducing them to its very fluid reasoning, Waldorf schools aim to empower their students to deal with the subject of chemistry as self-reliant, discriminating personalities.
