During Lent, we prepare both physically and spiritually for what lies ahead. Now that the candles of the holidays have been burned to ashes, "the power of the senses must spiritually turn" to kindle the fire of Christ within us.
For this Lenten season, we offer our article, The 40 Days of Lent, as a period of testing and preparation, and discuss the benefits of fasting during this time as indicated by Rudolf Steiner.
