He must move with inner assurance and vigor in the spiritual world as an in­ telligent man does in the physical world. Rudolf Steiner Youth Longs to Know JOHN F. GARDNER “I am very content, with knowing, if only I could know." — Emerson Many children today bear within them greater potentialities than ever before, powers the world needs as never before. Educators and parents must recognize and find ways to encourage these new capacities. The schooling and habits of thought to which children are now exposed, however, are not helpful. They frustrate what longs to be fulfilled. Our civilization as a whole represents a concerted attack upon the potentialities of the new generations. We must help youth to withstand this attack. We must make it possible for young people to realize the purpose of their lives: to achieve what they mean to achieve. And the modern world must receive from them just what they alone can newly give, if it is to solve the human and environmental problems that increasingly beset it.

  • Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories Before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions
    Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions Geoffrey Jones Working Paper 13-024 August 28, 2012 Copyright © 2012 by Geoffrey Jones Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions Geoffrey Jones Harvard Business School August 2012 Abstract This working paper examines the creation of the global natural food and beauty categories before 2000. This is shown to have been a lengthy process of new category creation involving the exercise of entrepreneurial imagination. Pioneering entrepreneurs faced little consumer demand for natural products, and little consumer knowledge of what they entailed. The creation of new categories involved three overlapping waves of entrepreneurship. The first involved making the ideological case for natural products. This often entailed investment in education and publishing activities. Second, entrepreneurs engaged in the creation of industry associations which could advocate, as well as give the nascent industry credibility and create standards. Finally, entrepreneurs established retail stores, supply and distribution networks, and created brands. Entrepreneurial cognition and motivation frequently lay in individual, and very local, experiences, but many of the key pioneers were also highly globalized in their world views, with strong perception of how small, local efforts related to much bigger and global pictures. A significant sub-set of the influential historical figures were articulate in expressing strong religious convictions.

DL Quel est donc le système de forces qui intègre harmonieusement l’homme à l’être vivant de la terre? L’observation directe nous montre que ce ne peut être que la lumière. Tout homme à l’esprit non prévenu ressent comme formant la base de la vie ses effets vivifiants, réchauffants, rafraîchissants, qui égayent et affermissent le cœur et l’esprit. La lumière crée déjà les fondements communs de l’existence par le rythme des jours et des saisons, et aussi par la nourriture et le climat. On peut voir ici déjà que la lumière est d’une importance fondamentale non seulement pour le monde végétal, mais aussi pour l’humanité.

    RUDOLF STEINER LIBRARY VYDZ023789 T H E G O L D E N B L A D E KINDLING SPIRIT 2002 54th ISSUE RUDOLF STEINER LIBRARY 65 FERN HILL RD GHENT NY 12075 KINDLING SPIRIT Edited by William Forward, Simon Blaxland-de Lange and Warren Ashe The Golden Blade Anthroposophy springs from the work and teaching of Rudolf Steiner. He described it as a path of knowledge, to guide the spiritual in the human being to the spiritual in the universe. The aim of this annual journal is to bring the outlook of anthroposophy to bear on questions and activities relevant to the present, in a way which may have lasting value. It was founded in 1949 by Charles Davy and Arnold Freeman, who were its first editors. The title derives from an old Persian legend, according to which King Jamshid received from his god, Ahura Mazda, a golden blade with which to fulfil his mission on earth. It carried the heavenly forces of light into the darkness of earthly substance, thus allowing its transformation. The legend points to the pos sibility that humanity, through wise and compassionate work with the earth, can one day regain on a new level what was lost when the Age of Gold was supplanted by those of Silver, Bronze and Iron. Technology could serve this aim; instead of endan gering our plantet's life, it could help to make the earth a new sun.

  • The Dignity of the Human Body
    The dignity of the human body External treatments in the practice and research of Anthroposophic Medicine 17.09. to 20.09.2015 International annual conference of the Medical Section at the Goetheanum It could be that a threefold sequences of facts will cause the medical approach with a greater materialistic outlook to turn towards the one with a greater spiritual scientific orientation […]. It will happen in the observation of all those things connected with the development of growths, and specifically their possible cure. And it will come to appearance in a truly rational understanding of the so-called mental illnesses, and then in the therapeutic knowledge which will have to be acquired for the use of external methods, that is rhythmical Einreibungen, the application of ointments and similar things. Rudolf Steiner, GA 312, Lecture of 2 April 1920 2 The dignity of the human body The dignity of the human body – External treatments in the practice and research of anthroposophic medicine External treatments such as baths, washing, compresses, wraps, rhythmical Einreibungen or massages are a central element of anthroposophic medicine and its integrative system. They act via the skin in which the human spiritual and soul being awakens in the nervous and sensory system to the differentiated perception of touch, warmth and cold. On the other hand we know about differentiated metabolic and regenerative functions of the skin which take place unconsciously. Blushing or turning pale, and thus the changing colour of the skin, is conveyed by the rhythmical system. External treatments can directly influence the structure of the human component elements disrupted by illness.

New Methods for the Testing and Improvement of Drinking Water THEODOR SCHWENK Many of those who live in our great cities no longer drink the water from their faucets but prefer to buy expensive mineral water and bottled spring water. Whereas formerly it was taken for granted that people drew drinking water from a spring or well, where it begins its cycle, nowadays, for the most part, we must resort to treating polluted river water so as to make it chemically and bacterio- logically “acceptable.” This, however, ignores the fact that drinking water consists not only of the chemical element H2O — albeit with various salts and trace elements held in solution — but is actually a [Image: photograph]Pattern formed by drinking water of highest quality. 1 [Image: photograph]Pattern formed by a sample of drinkable quality from a Black Forest stream.
