The Challenge of Our Times

Technology’s Role in Human Evolution in the Light of Spiritual Science

Intensives in the UK with Are Thoresen, Theodor Hundhammer, and Andrew Linnell

Throughout Rudolf Steiner’s years of lecturing, he warned about the dangers as well as the necessary role of technology in our evolution. In his last Letters to Members, he explained how evolution has brought us to a mastery of the physical, of Nature, but also of how technology will pull us down into a new realm, the realm of sub-nature. This is unavoidable and throughout his lectures where he discusses the dangers of technology, Steiner also offered us counterbalances. To balance our exposure to sub-nature, we must learn to consciously enter the realms of super-nature (the etheric and astral realms). Eurythmy, a movement artform first developed by Rudolf Steiner, will be shown to be an important counterbalancing activity, among others.
This conference is created by MysTech, a non-profit organization based in Seattle, USA. MysTech seeks to advance humanity’s moral cultivation of technology with the interpenetration of the moral and the mechanical through Spiritual Science. It is devoted to cultivating a relationship between humanity and machine that will be healthy and helpful for future evolution.
