Michelle Kaplan gave us indications given by Rudolf Steiner and some of the first Eurythmists with regard to the Halleluiah and at 5.30pm we joined many an- throposophists around the world in the Halleluiah. Wilfried Bohm then spoke about the ceremony that surrounded the laying of this ‘stone’. “The Foundation stone is composed of a double pentagonal dodecahedron, made of sheet copper and soldered together on one side. Into this had been placed a document, which was a parchment of male calfskin. On it Dr. Steiner had drawn 3 waving lines representing the hierarchies weaving around the dodecahedron. This ‘stone’, its double 12 foldedness, is an image of the striving human soul – a microcosm planted in a macrocosm. Sparkling new roof for The address by Rudolf Steiner was made even more solemn because the very Sophia House! elements seemed to conspire against this human effort in the year preceding the outbreak of war to achieve something truly spiritual by constructing this Editorial unique building. Since only 3 days notice could be given only about 40 people could be present and braved the storm that broke on them after sunset on the Foundation Stone evening of 20 September 1913....just as the ceremony was beginning. Torrents of rain fell, and a gale howled around them as Rudolf Steiner’s powerful voice sounded out above the noise of the elements.

  • Camphill and the Future
    3 Camphill Contexts A communal movement, like any living thing, evolves in complex relationship with its environment. In the beginning, the relevant environment is small. The movement’s growth is shaped primarily by the founders’ creativity and strength of will, their capacity to get along with one another, and other internal factors. Movements that reach a second or third generation do so because their found- ers manage to open themselves to the surrounding world, at least to the extent of welcoming a new generation into movement leadership. This is what Camphill accomplished, rather splendidly, with the incorporation of baby boomers in the 1970s. By the time a communal movement reaches maturity, however, it does not simply live within an environment. It relates simultaneously to multiple contexts, each offering its own challenges and opportunities to the movement. The task of a mature movement is to allow itself to be transformed by each of its contexts, and simultaneously to transform each context by bringing to it distinctly communal practices and ideals.
