Diana Bacchus (for the Initiative Group) * * * * * * The Parcival Legend Talk on Parcival on Whit Sunday 28th of May. (More details next week) The Parcival legend is often studied in Class 11 in Waldorf Schools. It is told in a long medieval poem written by Wolfram von Eschenbach: He writes: “This very day there comes to it a message, wherein lies its greatest power. Today is Good Friday and they await there a dove winging down from the Heavens.” The symbol of the white dove is very connected with Good Friday, Whitsun and the Holy Grail. At this time of Whitsun I would like to share with you some thoughts on the story of Parcival and how he was called to the Grail at Whitsuntide. What was his path of development to become worthy of entering the Grail castle again and whom did he choose to accompany him?
