Many feel that a vague, nebulous or abstract spirituality no longer suffices in today's world and at the same time, a return to the dogma of traditional religions is unthinkable. In short, we want to know for ourselves. Steiner offered a path which is completely individual to each person who takes it up...and at the same time universal. It is a path which anyone can follow no matter their cultural background. And no matter what your religion or spiritual path is, Steiner's ideas and "Anthroposophy" can support and enliven it.His insights have brought renewal to many areas in life such as Education, Agriculture (Biodynamics), Medicine , Religion (The Christian Community), architecture and many others.ABOUT THE HOSTMick is an Australian born counsellor, speaker, and singer/songwriter who has spent more than 20 years studying, meditating and working with Rudolf Steiner's ideas, including 3 years at a seminary in Germany, the seminary for The Christian Community, a non-dogmatic movement, honouring free thinking, freedom of belief and ordaining women since it's inception in 1922. .
