Rudolf Steiner e.Lib Document
Lectures Section
These lectures, given after the burning of the first Goetheanum and
before the refounding of the Anthroposophical Society, form an important
part of the history of the Anthroposophical Movement. Steiner calls for a
'searching of conscience' and without reservation makes an assessment of
the Movement 'free from illusions.' He explains that in anthroposophical
communities we can experience our first awakening to the spirit in our
encounters with others and describes how the 'reversed cultus' forms the
foundation for a new community life.

These lectures, given after the burning of the first Goetheanum and
before the refounding of the Anthroposophical Society, form an important
part of the history of the Anthroposophical Movement. Steiner calls for a
“searching of conscience” and without reservation makes an
assessment of the Movement “free from illusions.” He explains
that in anthroposophical communities we can experience our first awakening
to the spirit in our encounters with others and describes how the
“reversed cultus” forms the foundation for a new community
life.
Here are ten lectures given in Stuttgart and Dornach, January 23rd
through March 4th, 1923, from the lecture series entitled,

This volume is presented here with the kind permission of the Rudolf
Steiner Nachlassverwaltung, Dornach, Switzerland.
