From a misty late autumn in Berlin... |

Good day,
In memory of Gudrun Burkhard, who passed away on 28 September 2022, at the age of 93, we would like to share the following quote. She often put it at the beginning of meetings of the Association for Biography Work. To us it sounds like a spiritual social law. At present, as we observe a lot of polarisation and fragmentation, we actively remember this counter-image: "The more people become splintered, the less noble souls will descend into the realm of humanity. The more connections are formed, and the more feelings of community are created with a notion of complete freedom, the more noble Beings can step down to humanity and the faster the Earth Planet will be spiritualised." Rudolf Steiner, GA 102, 11th lecture, 01.06.1908 |
