Sacred Agriculture
"From an esoteric point of view and from Steiner's point of view, the evolution of the Earth depends on the evolution of human consciousness. They are not separate. The ancient peoples understood that. They understood that human consciousness is woven in with the destiny and life of the Earth as a spiritual being. As a result they lived in a sacred manner. Their daily round was the stuff of a priesthood. They understood the relationship between the human and the divine by seeing the Earth as the mother and the sky as the father of humanity. "It was just a given for them that nature was permeated by spiritual entities. However, that worldview had to evolve to the spot where we are today. Toda...
Weather and Cosmos
For everyone who feels awe in the face of the great phenomena of nature.It is hoped that this small book will be a contribution towards the opening of a dialogue for the purpose of studying the ways in which nature and the cosmos interact. It is my firm belief that science must once more be wedded to the arts. So, it is not ultimately for meteorologists that this work was undertaken, but for farmers and artists who feel a sense of awe when looking at storm clouds or a ring around the moon. Ultimately, it was written for the teachers of children and all who stand in awe of the living miracle of the rain and snow and who are the priests celebrating the life of the mother Earth.
Knowledge, Teaching, and the Death of the Mysterious
Thoughts on keeping learning alive. These lectures address learning in the periods of life from birth to adulthood, with illustrations from physiology and psychology, to form pictures of the teaching/learning tasks and concerns appropriate for each age group. Contemporary education often attempts to 'solve' the mysterious aspects of nature through proper application of information. This tends to make awe and wonder diminish in the soul of the student. In contrast to this, the Waldorf methodology is designed to help students penetrate the mysteries of life while still keeping the experience of the mysterious intact. The primary focus of this work is to integrate sense experience and cognitive insights in rhythmic ways that are appropriate to the age and development skills of the students. The final lecture speaks of the development of the Heart-eye.
The Seer's Handbook
To be a seer is to use the eyes of the soul together with one's physical eyes--being able to move from one to the other, letting go of one for the other. For those who wish to develop faculties of higher knowing and seeing, "The Seer's Handbook" is a unique, practical guide, filled with exercises, meditations, and insightful commentary.
Esoteric Physiology
"In healing processes or in the general growth of the body, the formation of bone or the formation of a tissue from a fluid is a sclerotic process. We can call it the formation of tissue from fluid growth, but technically it is sclerotic. Sclerosis, which is considered to be a disease process, is therefore a natural process in the body. Inflammation and infection that can kill you and sclerosis are both the body's natural healing processes. Steiner mentions this and asks, So, where does the illness come in? This is a really a very good question. The answer he gives is this: Illness is not in the body and its life forces. Illness is in the thoughts we bring to the body and the life forces. Il...
Colors of the Soul
This book is a meditation on the different aspects of colour, particularly its relationship to healing. Drawing on examples from natural science and spiritual science, Klocek focuses on the real essence of colours and how they relate to human beings in our physical body and soul. From Newton to Rudolf Steiner, and including the development of artistic pigments, this enlightening book shows how colour can be linked to healing with artistic therapies, homeopathy and flower essences.Illustrated in colour with numerous diagrams and examples of art from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century, this book offers surprising insights into a subject that is integral to our everyday life and development.
The Alchemical Wedding
"Misunderstanding and the feeling of uncertainty that not-knowing produces in the soul is exactly the challenge Christian Rosenkreutz faces again and again.... Yet, in this story, the compassionate healing force of patience arises somehow from misunderstanding." (from the introduction) The classic text of 1616, The Chemical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz--supposedly authored by Johann Valentinus Andreae--is one of three key manifestos of the Rosicrucians and alchemists in general. It narrates a story of Christian Rosenkreutz, who was invited to a miraculous castle to assist in the "chemical wedding" of the king and the queen--the husband and the bride. Filled with alchemical metaphors, coded words, and images, Dennis Klocek describes--in his inimitable style--much of the profound meaning behind the colorful and surprising events throughout the seven-day "initiation" of Christian Rosenkreutz. Each chapter is devoted to one of the seven days, featuring an overview, followed by fresh translations of the original text, and illumined by comprehensive and unique commentaries by Dennis Klocek.
A Biodynamic Book of Moons
Biodynamic agriculture is a method of organic farming originally developed by Rudolf Steiner that employs what proponents describe as "a holistic understanding of agricultural processes". One of the first sustainable agriculture movements, it treats soil fertility, plant growth, and livestock care as ecologically interrelated tasks.In this republishing of Dennis Klocek's first book, he describes seasonal patterns, processes in the Earth's body, plant growth forces, and cosmic influences that contribute to agricultural practices inspired by Biodynamic and alchemical understandings. Illustrated by the author with sensitive illustrations and woodcuts, this book will be your constant companion throughout the year in the garden and on the farm.
Drawing from the Book of Nature
When students are given fixed and finalized abstractions from the beginning, they do not have to use their own inner forces to overcome the resistance of the world to arrive at truth or to create beauty. The result is that their inner pictures are devoid of life. To arrive at a truth or to create beauty that reflects the order and harmony of the Creator, we must always begin humbly, in ignorance and ugliness. By striving out of ignorance and ugliness toward the true and beautiful, both scientists and artists can bring new, creative forces into the world. Neither memorizing data nor copying a beautiful drawing engages the true imagination of students as it is by drawing a flower from life. It...
