    ALBERT STEFFEN CENTENNIAL ISSUE NUMBER 39 AUTUMN, 1984 ISSN 0021-8235 . Albert Steffen does not need to learn the way into the spiritual world from Anthroposophy. But from him Anthroposophy can come to know of a living “Pilgrimage ” — as an innate predisposition o f the soul — to the world of spirit. Such a poet-spirit must, if he is rightly understood, be recognized within the anthroposophical movement as the bearer o f a message from the spirit realm. It must indeed be felt as a good destiny that he wishes to work within this movement. H e adds, to the evidence which Anthroposophy can give of the truth inherent within it, that which works within a creative personality as spirit-bearer like the light of this truth itself.

  • Marie Steiner Und Beatenberg Ein Stück Anthroposop Bischer
    Marie Steiner und Beatenberg Ein Stück anthroposop bischer Geschichte anläßlich des Todes von Bertha Margrit Heuer (3.3.1903 bis 15.12.1979) mit Dokumenten In Beatenberg, im Berner Oberland, hoch über dem Thunersee, im Hause der Familie Hirter-Heller, ist vor 32 Jahren Marie Steiner über die Schwelle des To­ des gegangen. Es war am frühen Nachmittag des 27. Dezember 1948. Seit dem drei Tage vorher eingetretenen Kräftezusammenbruch hatte man Frau Marie Steiner keinen Augenblick mehr allein gelassen. Abwechselnd waren immer zwei Menschen bei ihr. Die beiden, in deren Beisein sich das Todesgeschehen vollzog, waren Helene Dubach und Bertha Margrit Heller. Letztere hätte eigent­ lich sich zu der Zeit von der vorhergegangenen Nachtwache ausruhen sollen. Trotz mehrfacher Ermahnungen vonseiten der anderen Hausbewohner war sie jedoch nicht dazu zu bewegen gewesen, das Zimmer von Frau Marie Steiner zu verlassen. So kam es, daß sie das Hinübergehen Marie Steiners miterleben durfte. Nun ist auch Bertha Margrit Heller über die Schwelle des Todes gegangen. Ihr Tod gibt berechtigte Veranlassung, von dem Zusammenhang ihrer Familie mit dem Wirken von Rudolf und Marie Steiner zu berichten, denn dieser Zu­ sammenhang war ein sehr bedeutsamer, wofür ja auch der Ort von Marie Stei­ ners Tod ein sprechendes Zeichen geworden ist. Bertha Margrit Heller war das letzte Glied einer Schweizer Familie, die mit der Geschichte der anthroposophischen Bewegung durch einen außergewöhn­ lichen Helferwillen eng verknüpft ist. Insbesondere war es die Stiefgroßmutter von Bertha Margrit Heller, Frau Marie Hirter-Weber, die ihrer Familie ein leuchtendes Beispiel vorgelebt hatte. Anläßlich ihres 90. Geburtstages dankte ihr Marie Steiner mit den folgenden warmen Worten, und zwei Jahre später mit dem Gedenken, das sie ihr nach ihrem Tode widmete: Dornach, den 13.

I’m sure you are very excited about starting to homeschool your child this year. But you may also have a lot of questions, like where to start, how to make sure you’re doing it right, what to cover, and more. This First Grade Overview is designed to help and should answer many of your questions. Your first grade child is likely between the ages of 6 and 7. Waldorf schools generally take children into first grade after the change of teeth, along with other signs of first grade readiness. Your child has moved from the willing stage (birth to 7) to the feeling stage (7 to 14). If you are not familiar with the general view of child development laid out by Rudolf Steiner, please take special note of the section “Reading Steiner.” It’s really important for your teaching and your parenting that you thoroughly understand Steiner’s point of view on the three stages of development.
