Anthroposophy Research

Anthroposophy
is a human oriented spiritual philosophy that reflects and speaks to the deep spiritual questions of humanity, to our basic artistic needs, to the need to relate to the world out of a scientific attitude of mind, and to the need to develop a relation to the world in complete freedom and based on completely individual judgments and decisions.

Quote by Rudolf Steiner:

"Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge, to guide the Spiritual in the human being to the Spiritual in the universe. It arises in man as a need of the heart, of the life of feeling; and it can be be justified only inasmuch as it can satisfy this inner need. He alone can acknowledge anthroposophy, who finds in it what he himself in his own inner life feels impelled to seek. Hence only they can be anthroposophists who feel certain questions on the nature of man and the universe as an elemental need of life, just as one feels hunger and thirst."

The main organization for Anthroposophy is now known as the national Anthroposophical Societies.

Developed by Rudolf Steiner at the end of the 19th century

It is also an impulse to nurture the life of the soul in the individual and in human society.

Steiner designed thirteen building that were very unique using organic-expressionistic architectural style.

Here are two of his designs for the two Goetheanum buildings in Dornach, Switzerland.
