GA 191 Lucifer and Ahriman
If mankind does not do the hard work of understanding spiritual science himself, he will fall prey to Ahriman handing it to us “like magic.”
Steiner introduces us to Lucifer, Ahriman, and Christ.
Lecture 2 | Lucifer, Christ, Ahriman
There’s a balance needed among the three forces. The embodiment of Christ consciousness represents a balanced approach to living (a middle way).
Steiner predicts the state of our current time (world wars and a breakdown of society), and traces the development of man back to Lucifer’s time (the 4th millennium B.C.).
Lecture 4 | The World of Reason
Thanks to Lucifer, mankind was able to advance spiritually. He must now also battle Ahrimanic energy (the rigidification of thought).
In truth, man plays an active role in shaping the earth.
Inner wisdom for the modern age
The quest for sovereignty
There comes a time when the things worth fighting for become the things that need defending.
That time is now.
There has been a collective desire to seek sovereignty–the very thing we once believed to be our birthright, but have found its existence undermined in one way or another.
Sovereignty, above all else, is the cornerstone of what it truly means to be human. Sovereignty is the power we wield without needing to beg, barter, or compromise. It is who we are at its core, and it has been forgotten.
