Calendar of the Soul

Northern Hemisphere
Week 43

In winter's depths is kindled
True spirit life with glowing warmth;
It gives to world appearance,
Through forces of the heart, the power to be.
Grown strong, the human soul defies
With inner fire the coldness of the world.

Southern Hemisphere
Week 17

Thus speaks the cosmic Word
That I by grace through senses' portals
Have led into my innermost soul:
Imbue your spirit depths
With my wide world horizons
To find in future time myself in you.

—Translation by Ruth and Hans Pusch

Cosmic Workings In Earth and Man
Various GAs

Six lectures given to workmen at the Goetheanum, Dornach, Switzerland. Lectures I and II, were translated by M. Cotterell; Lectures III and VI, by D. S. Osmond; Lectures IV and V, by V. E. Evans.

The lectures in this volume have been selected from the very large number given regularly by Dr. Steiner to the workmen employed at the Goetheanum. The two preceding volumes of the same series contain lectures dealing with the religious life and ideas of ancient peoples and the significance of the Christian impulse.
