Anthroposophy: spiritual science
Our first subject is Anthroposophy. Starting with Rudolf Steiner's life, proceeding with a brief history of the first anthroposophical movement, we'll proceed deepening the anthroposophical grounds, starting with the so-called "occult science", where "occult" stays literally for "hidden"; we'll discover a complete science, clear and rational, transmissible and verified by an healty thinking; a science whose aim is investigate the "hidden" part of reality, everything that's "not visible" with our principal perception organs.
The anthroposophical ground will be researched trying to see how anthroposophy is completely collocated in our time, as a real spiritual science. Rudolf Steiner caught and understood all the value included in the scientific method and research; but he did also develop the skill to bring science's precision and strictness in another realm, a realm that science chose not to investigate, but that is not by his nature outside of human knowledge.
This method requires precision, a continual check with reality, and asks us to build new ways to perceive and to approach man and universe. This is what we'll be looking for in a continual study developed through all the nine saturdays.
