The more you look into things, the more you start bumping into Steiner and the more you understand that he was on to stuff that will take the rest of humanity at least a few more centuries to accept.
In the meantime there is a diametrically opposing force that seeks to drag humanity back down the evolutionary line to depths they have ever been just out of sure, willful spite in their refusal to accept the blatantly spiritual. Neurobiologists and scientists who unironically quote Thomas Eddison on subjects of ontology and epistemology. Clinging to Cartesian mind-body dualism because at least they can btfo that, unlike Steiner's work which yawns like an ominous abyss that their shriveled souls refuse to traverse and shrink before.
Make the leap. Futurity is waiting.

he looks like yung snape

i enjoyed reading you post

>>12372891
i have read the first and second scientific lectures by him and was blown away
the metaphorically connective he presents across the spiritual and the physical world is so clear and delightful
gave me a feeling of being an alchemist
where you really need only your mind to perform an experiment, sit and think. stiener takes you through a journey

on another note, his understading of light and some experiments seemed to be proven wrong
so as always, don't get carried away, take some salt

Further proof that the Austrian gang were the best at everything, literally everything

All the people I know that went to his schools were massive retards that were severely lacking social and intellectual skills in comparison to their peers.

Literally who?

I went to a Waldorf high school, and it seemed to draw a lot of cancerous hipster types who see themselves as being so much more educated and enlightened than the masses, but can't bring themselves to learn basic math and science.

Nah, honestly though Blavatsky was the worst thing to happen to the Steiner movement. The dude is a brilliant philosopher, possibly one of the major undiscovered thinkers of the 20th century, but it doesn't matter because all anyone associates his movement with is Theosophical visions about Vril and Atlantis.

He's one of the best German idealist thinkers I've ever encountered.

What can I read to start with his readings?

Recommendations?

Owen Barfield is probably a good place to start if you're interested in Steiner's thought

What Coleridge Thought, Saving the Appearances, Poetic Diction

I have read the philosophy of liberty some time ago and there are some ideas I think I have picked up there on which I keep returning very often. Can some of the more expert anon suggest a consistent reading list for his philosophy? I am growing more and more interested in his thought and would like to proceed systematically.
