Rudolf Steiner
Rudolf Steiner was an Austrian philosopher and esotericist who founded anthroposophy, a spiritual movement emphasizing the development of human consciousness. He believed that true knowledge comes from personal experience and self-awareness, integrating spiritual insights with practical skills. Steiner promoted education (Waldorf schools), agriculture (biodynamic farming), and the arts, viewing them as pathways to deeper understanding of ourselves and the universe. His ideas encourage individuals to cultivate their inner capacities, fostering a holistic approach to life that addresses both spiritual and material aspects of existence.
