 Notes from the Editor

 Leading Thought #16

16. It is the third form of the ‘ I ’ which gives us insight into the independent Being of man within a spiritual world. It makes us feel how, with his earthly-sensible nature, man stands before himself as a mere manifestation of what he really is. Here lies the starting-point of true Self-knowledge. For the Self which fashions man in his true nature is revealed to him in Knowledge only when he progresses from the thought of the ‘ I ’ to its picture, from the picture to the creative forces of the picture, and from the creative forces to the spiritual Beings who sustain them.

• The First Goetheanum

In preparation for the coming exhibition of Art work related to the First Goetheanum
I have compiled an article called “ Creating Spaces for the Cultivation of Anthroposophy” on the series of buildings Rudolf Steiner designed.  See article "Creating Space" under News.
