Monday 20 January7pm - 8.30pm
with Dr Sue Peat and Adrian Hotten
We will be continuing to read and discuss Theosophy, which is one of Rudolf Steiner’s fundamental and foundational books, published in 1904.
It begins by describing the threefold nature of the human being: the body, or sense-world; the soul, or inner world; and the spirit, or universal world of cosmic archetypes. A profound discussion of reincarnation and karma follows, concluding with a description of the soul's journey through regions of the supersensible world after death. The book closes with an outline of the path to higher knowledge.
Copies of the book are readily available both new and pre-loved, and it is also available on the Rudolf Steiner Archive website.
All are welcome to join us for any, or all, of these meetings. Previous knowledge of Rudolf Steiners’ work is not expected or required.
All our meetings are free. Donations towards expenses are gratefully received.

Tuesday 21 January7pm - 8.30pm
with Brendan McQuillan
We will be reading these 10 lectures by Rudolf Steiner from Nov 1912 to Apr 1913 entitled 'Between Death and Rebirth' (GA141).
The lectures deal with the period following Kamaloka during which the soul is open to cosmic influences and is being prepared for its future life on earth. It considers factors from the life just spent on earth that influence these experiences after death as well as those in the spiritual world that will affect its future earth life. It looks also at the significance of our connection with the earth and at the influence the living may have on the souls of the dead.
All welcome but some knowledge would be an advantage.

With Trevor Dance
These profoundly esoteric lectures examine the laws inherent in reincarnation and karma and explore in detail the incarnations of specific historical figures. The opportunity to study this lecture series in a group affords us a chance to really get to grips with these fundamental issues, which demonstrate the realities of the workings of karma in human life.

Wednesday 29 January4.15pm - 5.45pm
with Dagmar Steffelbauer
Occult Science was first written by Steiner in 1909 and after that, three revised editions (1913, 1920 & 1925) followed. Studying the book, a first glance into supersensible worlds is given. ‘One of the fairest fruits of the pursuit of Spiritual Science is that it lends strength and firmness to life. Inexhaustible is the fountainhead from which it draws, giving human being strength for work and confidence in life’ - Rudolf Steiner.
All are welcome!
