The Motorcycle Junkie and Human Development
Note: The word junkie in this article is used as defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary as: a person who gets an unusual amount of pleasure from or has an unusual amount of interest in something. A motorcycle junkie typically has things around him that are related to motorcycles. We find motorcycles in his garage, [...]
What is Practical Anthroposophy?
I have grown up in a family where my parents both ‘preached’ Anthroposophy. I went to a Waldorf School where I did eurythmy, knitting, woodwork and so on. Many of us still ask ourselves ‘what did we do all this for?’ The fact that it delivers human beings is real and so it gets the [...]
The Lens Concept
This article follows my article titled ‘The Liberty sphere must discover our Humanity’. In this previous article, the picture was sketched that the world around me I form by the concepts that I allow to live within me. Somehow, my hands and feet and mouth do things aligned to what I allow to live within [...]
The Liberty sphere must discover our Humanity
What are we as human beings? Are we only the consequence of nature’s biological processes? Are we this as well as creatures with a sense of something bigger that we rely on the churches to own and dish out to us in return for funding? Are we just a stepping stone for the development of [...]
Competition belongs in the Liberty Sphere
In his book ‘Toward Social Renewal’, Dr Steiner refers to the economic sphere as an ‘associative’ sphere. This is quite different from the meaning ascribed to ‘competition’. So why is there competition in the business sphere and why does it belong somewhere else? Our societies today are really all a varied form of unitary state. [...]

From a physical point of view we are mammals called Homo Sapiens. We are warm blooded and suckle our young. We are unique in that we walk upright and our knees bend forward . If one takes this a bit further into the detail, we discover that we are quite specific in our physicality even [...]
The land and means of production ownership question
Part I If we take a step backwards, private land ownership is a relatively new phenomenon even if this is a few thousand years old. Ownership of land has moved away from the churches and religious leaders of mankind towards the individual and then even further this way towards the individual in the economic sphere [...]
Building a puzzle – what can we learn from it?
Building a puzzle - what can we learn from it? We decided to do a simple exercise – to build a puzzle. By being open, interested and truly objective, we discovered something new. On the one hand we discovered something about the process itself and on the other, something about what manifested in the end. [...]
Humanity versus Nature
We must be very grateful for Science. It trains human souls to be objective. We have learnt to be factual, accurate, to reduce things to measurements and quantities and to remove emotion from our observations and conclusions. Then, we could bless too that in us which managed to survive our several hundred years of dedication [...]
Understanding Zimbabwe’s ‘Coup’ and more…
Einstein is quoted as having said: ‘You cannot solve a problem with the same logic that created it.’ He also said that ‘Idiocy is repeatedly doing something the same way and expecting a different result.’ Both of these statements lead us to a similar concept which is that we need to change something in ourselves [...]
