Archangel Michael and the Forces of Good and Evil
This powerful lecture, the 5th in its series, presents a deep and comprehensive overview of the work of Archangel Michael, Rudolf Steiner's role as the initiate of the present era who works in complete consciousness with him, and the founding and the mission of the Anthroposophical Society.
In this webinar, the second of its series, we looked at Good and Evil, Truth and Lies as very present forces of our age, and examined them in the context of Michael, Christ, and human and cosmic evolution.
This presentation concerns the forces of the spiritual world which we meet when crossing the threshold to the spiritual world, in sleep in meditation, after death and before birth.
In this, the 4th class of this series, we first practiced building a living imagination of Archangel Michael, in order to perceive our capacity for living thinking. We then considered how computers work with forces of dead thinking, and the need for us to "rise as high into the spiritual world as we descend into the world of sub-nature.
In this, the first in its series, I speak about Archangel Michael as a heavenly being, his origin, his commitment to Sophia and wisdom, his role through human history and his activity in the present age as the Countenance of Christ.
