Thank you to everyone who joined for the coffee and chat today (although I think I was the only one drinking coffee?!). We're going to do it again at the same time next Friday 27th Feb at 4pm London, 11am EST (US). We talked about spiritual initiation in the past and today, kundalini experiences, new age spirituality, science and much else. If you were there, please feel free to post something about it to let others know your experience. Warm wishes Mick

“Love is higher than opinion. If people love one another, the most varied opinions can be reconciled — thus one of the most important tasks for humankind today and in the future is that we should learn to live together and understand one another. If this human fellowship is not achieved, all talk of development is empty.” Rudolf Steiner from Steiner’s lecture “At the Gates of Spiritual Science” (Lecture 11, Stuttgart, 1 September 1906) in the Collected Works (GA 95).

The 13 holy nights (from the 24th December to 5th Jan) are a very special time spiritually speaking. The veil between this world and the spiritual world becomes thinner during this time. This has its positive side and also its negative side as not all spiritual forces/entities have our best interests at heart. Over this time, the human soul actually lives through everything that we’ve experienced through all our incarnations from the time when we were “at one with the Gods”, when we were less individual and at one with the spiritual world. This was the time when we were given the seeds of our freedom and our individuality and also our ability to make mistakes and choose evil over good (referred to as “the fall” in some traditions). Before that time we were so connected that this was not even possible. We live through (unconsciously) everything that the human soul has had to endure from those primordial times up to the present day. Then on the 6th January (Epiphany) we are led to a vision (unconsciously for most of us) of that being who entered earth evolution to enable humans to spiritualise their individuality (or their “I”) and the earth itself. Wishing everyone in this group a peaceful and connected Christmas. Warmly Mick

Hi everyone, I'm looking to run 6 week, Spiritual Development Support Sessions in the New Year, with an emphasis on Rudolf Steiner's 6 exercises for helping us to get control of our own thinking, harmonise our emotions and strengthen the will. Please let me know in the comments if this is something that would interest you. Thank you! Warm wishes Mick
