Foundations for spiritual peace work

A genuine soul-feeling for true values – that is neither limited in time nor dependent on the changing streams of societal systems – a feeling for the value of greatness of character, morality and nobly created works, leads to a treasure within the soul. The more this soul feeling for values, expressed in practical and concrete terms, becomes part of an authentic feeling of the personality the more it inspires the heart centre with joyfully beautiful, expansive and rounded movements, which in turn radiate outwards to fellow human beings and, ultimately, far onto the whole cosmos. In life, the value that individuals respect, perceive, venerate with subtle ardour – and perhaps, furthermore, achieve in deeds and authentic feelings, – forms their heart. It is their inner, soul heart. Read More …

The Iran War – Cause and esoteric background

What can individuals do to support peace in the Iran conflict?

The US president Donald Trump actually did not want to start a war in Iran and sought to reassure Israel, who feared it would be destroyed and wiped out. From a spiritual perspective, taking into account the innermost circumstances, the intenseness of the American leader – who is highly emotional and quick to react – is not malicious but relatively peace-loving, and he is particularly concerned with the preservation of his own nation.

Ritualistic practices and a look at their effect on the world after death

No distinctions are made, nor is it specified whether the discussion concerns Catholic or Protestant consecration rites, the renewed worship within the anthroposophical Christian Community, or practices in the free Christian Churches. Very strong ritual movements exist, for example, in Hinduism and Yoga, such as Puja ceremonies with holy figures that are bathed in milk, or the traditional mantra initiation, which is given from teacher to student. Finally, a wide variety of ritualistic practices can take place in nature, intended, for example, to enliven the so-called elemental beings. Read More …

Meditation Letters for 2026

It is generally known that regular meditation promotes health and enhances the consciousness in its ability to perceive. It is important to differentiate between object-oriented and non-object-oriented meditation, saguna and nirguna. Incorrect forms of practice can lead individuals into an illusory world and reduce the soul’s potential for relationship to the point of paralysis. A well acquired foundation of how a meditation is built up, in what time frame it happens, and how to interpret its results is an important basis for those meditating. Read More …

Ritualistic acts and their metamorphosis – The reversed cult

Typical ritualistic acts have a widespread existence in various religious ceremonies, for example in the eucharistic mass of the catholic church. In the epiclesis, through the assembly of the congregation and priest’s act of consecration, the so-called holy spirit is called into the eucharistic bread and this is then distributed to the members of the church.

Outlook for 2026 – Part 8
A characteristic of 2026

The common sentiment that there is a combination of both good and bad deeds in all human beings will seem to a certain degree more relative in the coming year. Humanity stands at a threshold from which two great armies will emerge, comparable to those spoken of in the Bhagavad Gita, the Kauravas and the Pandavas. In general, these two armies symbolise evil with the Kauravas and good with the white army, the Pandavas. Read More …

Outlook for 2026 – Part 7
The world political situation

The great powers America and Russia have the consequence that the individual countries will generally gain an irrefutable need to develop their own originality and independence. Wars are certainly being planned but at the current state of development they will only be planned and not implemented. Current media politics is creating a scenario of fear-mongering. Read More …

Outlook for 2026 – Part 1
An overview of the year 2026

The coming year appears to be significantly different from the past.((For the signature of the past year please see the Outlook for 2025, parts 1 – 11.)) Although effects from the past reach over into the future and continue to have a wide variety of consequences, the existence of the spiritual sphere will nevertheless awaken new, completely unknown impulses that until now have been waiting remotely in the cosmos and were not visible or sufficiently perceptible.

The art of healing – a matter of importance

It would be wrong if therapies were portrayed merely in terms of administration of medication or psychotherapeutic interventions. Although adequate treatment and assistance are necessary in acute cases of illness, healing first takes place when the development of the human consciousness sufficiently comes into force and future possibilities for strengthening the self arise.

The practice of āsana – a sacrifice for peace

An outer development of dynamic strength, flexibility, stamina, skilful proportioning and general technical perfection in the physical exercise of yoga, the āsana, the so-called calm position, forms a very favourable basis for overall development and in addition, engagement with the deeper content with its meditative transformational character, ennobles the expression of the entire position and elevates it up to a lighter, higher creative level.

Decision against war

Essentially, diligence and the right development of spiritual disciplines form the best and surest protection against all the degeneration that becomes apparent in both struggles between nations and armed conflicts.
