227. The Evolution of Consciousness: Initiation-Knowledge — New and Old 21 Aug 1923, Penmaenmawr
Tr. Violet E. Watkin, Charles Davy

Rudolf Steiner
In the study of Anthroposophy, a justifiable objection at first can be that the anthroposophical investigation of facts concerning the spiritual worlds depends upon calling up, through the training I have described, deep-lying forces in the human being, before these facts can be reached.
227. The Evolution of Consciousness: The Ruling of Spirit in Nature 24 Aug 1923, Penmaenmawr
Tr. Violet E. Watkin, Charles Davy

Rudolf Steiner
What has been lost, however, must be regained, in the way that Anthroposophy, for example, would show. And now is the historical point of time when a striving to regain what has been lost must begin.
227. The Evolution of Consciousness: The Entry of Man into the Era of Freedom 31 Aug 1923, Penmaenmawr
Tr. Violet E. Watkin, Charles Davy

Rudolf Steiner
It is the present task of those peoples who, as representatives of a civilisation, are the first to whom Anthroposophy has to be brought, to accept all that is connected with Christ Jesus, and to recognise that without the Christ Impulse all men would have become mere “pillars of salt”.
217. The Younger Generation: Lecture X 12 Oct 1922, Stuttgart
Tr. René M. Querido

Rudolf Steiner
Not before thinking moves freely in this inner play of forces can Imagination be reached. Thus the basis for all Anthroposophy is inner activity, the challenge to inner activity, the appeal to what can be active when all the senses are silent and only the activity of thinking is astir.
217. The Younger Generation: Lecture XI 13 Oct 1922, Stuttgart
Tr. René M. Querido

Rudolf Steiner
Then, what attracts or repels others in a human being actually veils itself in a darkness impenetrable to the world of abstract concepts. But if, with the help of Anthroposophy, we investigate what one can really experience in five minutes but cannot describe in fifty years, we find that it is what rises up from the previous earth-life or series of earth-lives into the present life of the soul, and what is exchanged.
220. The Need for Christ 05 Jan 1923, Dornach
Tr. Unknown

Rudolf Steiner
True, we are at the very beginning of this development and we must remember what Anthroposophy tells mankind, namely that the centuries since the fourth century A.D. have been an intermediate period.
270. Esoteric Instructions: Sixteenth Lesson 28 Jun 1924, Dornach
Tr. John Riedel

Rudolf Steiner
And so even now, it is necessary that membership in the school should come to be so regarded, that those affiliated with the school will take up Anthroposophy with their whole human nature, with their whole being, and with the feeling that they themselves are linked limbs of the real stream that will flow forth from the Goetheanum.
24. The Requirements of Spiritual, Social and Economic Life
Tr. Richard G. Seddon

Rudolf Steiner
[ 9 ] It is a knowledge such as this for which that modern spiritual science is striving that is directed to Anthroposophy. Whilst fully recognizing all that the natural science mode of conception means for the progress of modern humanity, anthroposophical science yet sees that all that can be arrived at by the natural science mode of knowledge will never embrace more than the external man.
350. Rhythms in the Cosmos and in the Human Being: The Effects of Light and Color in Earthen Materials are Reflected in the Heavenly Bodies 09 Jun 1923, Dornach
Tr. Automated

Rudolf Steiner
That is why, as I said last time, it is so stupid when people say that anthroposophy only writes down what can be found in old writings. Because you can't understand what you find in old writings!
354. The Evolution of the Earth and Man and The Influence of the Stars: Planetary influences on animals, plants and stones 09 Sep 1924, Dornach
Tr. Gladys Hahn

Rudolf Steiner
We are only at the very beginning but the problem is being tackled. Thus anthroposophy will gradually penetrate into practical life. There are still some sessions to make up, so let us meet again next Friday.
