The Spiritual Destiny of North America
2024-01-28 20:00 - 21:30 UTC
THE SPIRITUAL DESTINY OF NORTH AMERICA: URIEL AND THE MYSTERY OF THE THREE OCCULTISMS

A Two Part Webinar

Sundays, January 21 & 28, 8pm Eastern Time

REGISTER NOW

Does the Archangel Uriel have a special connection with North America and with the development of mechanical occultism?

Is there a Parzival mystery embedded in the physical and etheric geography of North America?

How can we cultivate the new etheric heart forces and capacities which can help us to awaken and embody the good spirit of America?

Is there a relationship between the three occultisms and the threefold social order?

These Are Just A Few Of The Questions That We Will Explore In This Two-Part Webinar That Will Bring Together Over 30 Years Of Research I Have Conducted Into The Spiritual Character And Destiny Of North America.

In The First Webinar, Building On The Pioneering Spiritual Research Of Frederich Benesch And Robert Patterson, We Will Seek To Penetrate To An Understanding Of The Spiritual Geography Of North America, Encompassing The Mighty Forces Of Both Good And Evil That Are At Work On This Continent. We Will Explore The Way The Soul Forces, The Elemental Beings And Spirits Of Place Work Here, And The Ways In Which This Knowledge Can Help Us Bring Healing To Our Troubled Social And Ecological Landscapes. Gradually, We Will Work Toward An Understanding Of The Mystery Of The Center, The “Failed Rift Zone” Of America’s Heartland, Where The Grail And Arthurian Streams Of The Continent Flow Together And Where The Forces Of Anthroposophy, According To Rudolf Steiner, Concentrate Themselves And Then Ray Out Over The Entire Continent. How Can We Serve And Protect This “Woman Clothed With The Sun” Ever More Consciously?

In The Second Webinar, We Will Explore The Relationship Of The Three Occultisms (Eugenic, Hygienic And Mechanical) To The Beings Of Gabriel, Raphael And Uriel Respectively And The Way In Which Michael Is Seeking To Work With These Beings, Through Us, To Bring About A Healthy Expression Of These Three Occultisms. This Will Open A Doorway To A Recognition Of The Special Role That The Archangel Uriel Plays In The Destiny Of North America, And Will Allow Us To Examine The Signature Of Uriel In The History And Present-Day Life Of America. On This Basis We Will Explore Uriel’s Archetypal Way Of Working In The Human Soul, Which Is So Essential To Root Anthroposophy On This Continent, And To Create A Foundation For The Unfolding Of Those Healthy Social And Economic Forms, As Well As Etheric And Moral Technologies For Which Our Culture Is So Hungry.

Note, Each Of These Webinars Will Be Designed As An Independent Whole. While The Second Webinar Will Build On The First, It Is Not Necessary To Attend The First Webinar In Order To Attend The Second.

Prelude to UK Tour
2024-02-10 12:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York) | Online Conference
As MysTech prepared for a speaking tour through the United Kingdom in the following month of March 2024, we felt it important to invite other very prominent British voices on this topic of “The Challenge of our Times” to offer us their views as a prelude to the UK conference. The speakers that have joined us for this day long online conference are: Angus Jenkinson, Patrick Dixon, Paul Levy, and Andrew Linnell with guest appearance by Omer Eilam.

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) and master these forces as well through the mastery of ourselves. This conference is to help us sort out what is essential to know of our present world of technology and to discern a conscientious path forward in our daily lives.

Daniel Nicol Dunlop
2024-02-18 15:00 - 17:00 (America/New_York)
Daniel Nicol Dunlop – His Paths of Spiritual and Social 3-Folding Initiative

When Dunlop was introduced to Rudolf Steiner in 1922, he was already a well-known theosophist and occultist in Britain – but also making his mark in the new world of electrical power and engineering. Dunlop is known in anthroposophical circles as the organizer of the “extraordinarily satisfactory” Summer School at Penmaenmawr (1923) and a year later at Torquay (1924). At the Christmas Conference at Dornach in December 1923, Rudolf Steiner had asked: “Where is Mr. Dunlop? Where is Mr. Dunlop?” We will seek a possible answer to this question in the light of Dunlop’s involvement with the Anthroposophical Society and his World Power Conference initiative.

2024 is the centenary of the first World Power Conference, a remarkable feat of global economic co-operation organized by Dunlop. The organization he set up is now known as the World Energy Council, involving 89 countries and, including this year’s Rotterdam conference, with 25 global conferences under its belt. Its mission is “To promote the sustainable supply and use of energy for the greatest benefit of all people”, a formulation proposed by Dunlop and that has remained unchanged to this day. Daniel Dunlop was quite consciously implementing threefold social ordering!

Daniel Dunlop was born in Scotland in 1868 in the area where the Irish monks of Celtic Christianity had arrived 1300 years earlier to Christianize the Pictish pagans. He spent much of his childhood on the island of Arran, where he had his first spiritual visions. His life’s course took him to Ireland, America and back to England on a double-track of occultism and technology. Human encounters guided his path of achieved idealism.

Through his biography, we will explore the intertwining of his occult, technological and social paths. What can we still learn from Mr. Dunlop?

About the Presenter

John Byrde, born in 1943, grew up in the south of England. After a year of studies in social and economic sciences at Leeds University, he joined the Camphill Movement at Ringwood, attracted by the practical implementation of community living there. After completing the training course (seminar) in anthroposophical curative education at Camphill Aberdeen and a period as remedial teacher with children with developmental disorders, he moved to Switzerland in 1968. He spent the next 25 years there at Perceval, a Camphill center near Lausanne, where he was remedial teacher, house parent, seminar teacher, co-director, and board member, all the while married with four children. Perceval was deeply involved with local and wider initiatives, so John was active in founding and growing the Steiner schools at Lausanne and Geneva; the Economic Council of the Middle European Camphill Region; the French banking initiative La Nef; as well as in the Camphill Community and developing curative education and social therapy in wider settings. This led him, from 1990, to help develop initiatives in Georgia and Romania. In 1993 he moved to Romania to help build up the Casa Rozei center for curative education and social therapy at Urlati, Prahova, where he is today with his second wife, Roxana.

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.

We will offer other exercises and practices that can help you understand, manage, and transform your relationship to technology and to modern life. We hope that by the end of our work together, you will feel better resourced to understand the role of technology in human evolution and thereby to contribute to the future for the good of humanity and the world.

Can Contemporary Technology Help in Keeping the Art of Preparations Alive?
2024-04-07 14:00 - 15:30 UTC
About the Presentation

In the last 100 years, preparations as a part of the wholistic biodynamic approach to agriculture proved to be a life supporting method, helping to keep a physical and spiritual balance between the living earth through all its manifestation and a human being. However, with the spreading of biodynamics all over the world and dealing with the lack of some plant’s presence and a shortage of resources, it is crucial to have a method of copying some preparations using contemporary technological approaches including the usage of light and sound. Two such approaches are discussed in the presentation.

About the Presentation

When insights granted in meditation open the doors to a completely new musical instrument you can be sure something special will occur. When the sacred maths of Fibonacci create a bridge between the Cosmic Feminine and Her Masculine counterpart you can be sure celestial harmonies will emerge. When predictions from Rudolf Steiner, realised 60 years after his death, open new doors to musical perception it may not surprise you to hear that leading university research, actual music-therapy-patient experience and a worldwide customer base agree that something new and life changing has occurred. In this manufactured world, meditative craftsmanship can still open the door to a depth of listening that reveals the unseen, make audible the voice of trees, and still the racing soul through specific harmonics and close attention to the quality of our own everyday experience.

About the Presentation

We will explore the nature of light as particle and wave in relationship to how we experience reality. Moreover, this double nature of earthly light can then help us begin to understand the mysteries of how Christ can call himself ‘The Light of The World’. We will take a look at how light began in evolution according to the perceptions of Rudolf Steiner and begin to build a picture of the purpose and meaning of the true light of the world.

Thinking. Four arguments for thinking not being generated by the brain: 1. Concepts are not physical and are perceived through thinking; 2. Determining the next thought; 3. Imagining some physical action; 4. Non-physical models determine organic forms.

Implications for AI: Computers will never think as humans do; traditional programming vs. programs generated through machine “learning” (ML) programs; the impossibility of knowing how a ML program works, and its dangers when used to replace human decisions.

Pacific Time Zone (+8)

About the Presentation

When we tend to focus on creating an impact on the world, it is fashionable nowadays to think solely in terms of technology. But technology is only the final fruit of a scientific process that begins at the root, and has to be transformed if we are really serious about making the impact. The innovators in science are getting harder to come by: How many of us can name a scientist from the last 40 years who has had the kind of impact Faraday or Tesla more than a century ago? There are also an increasing number of issues at the basis of astronomy, electromagnetism, color science, and evolution, all of which need to be addressed to break through the logjam currently affecting science. We will discuss how to create true innovators, and also recognize real innovations, with the help of a Global Conference addressing all branches of science under one theme: Renewal of Science.

About the Presentation

Artificial intelligence is becoming increasingly powerful. Soon it will not only write text, drive cars, combine data, etc., but also diagnose diseases, recommend treatments, build houses, and much more. If we look at human intelligence only in terms of its combining mind, we will definitely lose the race.

However, artificial intelligence is always bound to the past. It cannot imagine things that may exist in the future but have never existed before. Bringing the future into the present is called intuition. It is a specific human ability. But what exactly is intuition? What is needed to develop it? What does it mean for humanity to act from the future? Is it even possible?

In this webinar we will take a deep dive into one of the most exciting human abilities.

Developing Cymatic Perception
2024-10-20 15:00 - 17:00 UTC
Eastern Time (+4 GMT)

About the Presentation

The science of cymatics is essentially a study of the external world, articulating and describing in great detail the fundamental principles of how matter responds to oscillation. Contemplating these phenomena and their inherent processes, I have experienced many profound insights into the nature of being and becoming. Cymatics, in and of itself, is NOT a spiritual practice. But to the devoted student, much of its allure lies in the recognition that it reveals precise visible analogies of processes that operate throughout the natural world, showing how inert matter may be animated by an invisible force. In the material world that we inhabit, this is known as sound, yet at a higher harmonic, it has been called the Sound Current, or in Sanskrit, the Anhad Shabd.Cymatics is a physical science that I like to call a “living metaphor.” It renders visible, for detailed examination, a clear analogy of the invisible creative pulsation of life itself. This brief introduction is an allegory explaining cymatics, a body of detailed and replicable phenomena that one could intellectually dissect to no end. Instead, let us focus on that inherently fascinating moment of discovery in which we find ourselves moving inward, not outward, to awaken a deeper understanding. Cymatics can serve to shed light upon this trail that we’re each uniquely blazing, as we proceed along our eternal journeys, unencumbered by beginnings or endings.

About the Presenters

Jeff Volk is a poet, producer and publisher who has popularized the science of cymatics for over four decades, having produced a series of videos on cymatics, and re-issuing Dr. Hans Jenny’s groundbreaking books (Cymatics, Vols. I & II), which scientifically demonstrate how audible sound can create harmonic, geometric patterns as found in intricate life forms, and in the sacred art and architecture of the world’s Wisdom Traditions. His 1992 documentary, Of Sound Mind and Body: Music and Vibrational Healing, won the Hartley Film Award through the Institute of Noetic Sciences. Its phenomenal success inspired him to produce The International Sound Colloquium, annually throughout the 1990s, which became the premier conference exploring the power of sacred sound and healing music.In 2006, he published Water Sound Images by German cymatics researcher, Alexander Lauterwasser. Jeff actively collaborates with artists, composers, musicians, researchers and scientists worldwide. He enjoys distilling this wealth of experience into multimedia presentations and feature articles that have been presented and published worldwide.His energetic and engaging presentations articulate how the same dynamics of unseen forces, made visible in the realms of physics by cymatics, are also at play subjectively in our personal lives. His work spans a wide range of topics, always seeking to offer an expansive perspective that integrates the disparate… in ways that only poetry can.

Evidence from NDEs and related experiences

Eastern Standard Time (-5 GMT)

Image: Angel Child, by Nancy Jewel Poer

About the Presentation

Part One of our presentation covers the evidence that the soul is a separate entity from the physical body, evidence of the reality of the etheric body, and evidence that with embodiment the soul becomes an incarnated human being. Part one concludes with a description of the process of incarnation of the soul derived from past life and pre-birth memories.

Part Two covers more details from pre-birth memories, namely the soul’s connection with mother and the gestational stages of the soul’s embodiment with the fetus. There is strong evidence that when the embodiment process is blocked or manipulated, the soul experiences trauma, particularly with IVF procedures. Both the mother and medical personnel need to recognize that the incarnating soul is a fully conscious, mature spiritual being and that communication with the soul can prevent or mitigate trauma. The moral, legal and societal questions regarding abortion can be addressed from this new perspective.

About the Presentation

Advent is a time of preparation – a preparation for what? As the Christian mystic Angelus Silesius said, “If Christ were born in Bethlehem a thousand times yet not in thee, then art thou lost eternally.” Yes, inwardly we prepare at this time for the Christ to be born in us. What inner work must we do for St. Paul’s words “no longer I but Christ in me” to live in our soul? Should we feel a wholeness with Nature and the four elements? Should we feel a oneness with the cosmos? Are we impeded from this by our Technological Age?

Illuminating Individual Stories, Shaping Collective Change

Eastern Standard Time (-5 GMT)

A Helping Hand by Carl Owen (2016)

About the Presentation

This presentation will share the journey behind In.Sight, a platform inspired by Anthroposophical principles and designed to support self-reflection and cultural renewal. In.Sight invites individuals to explore their life stories, uncover patterns, and preserve their biographies as part of a collective tapestry of wisdom. By scaling this work—whether through individual use, practitioner guidance, or biographically centered communities—opportunities are created for personal growth to contribute to broader cultural transformation. Rooted in ethical technology, In.Sight fosters spaces where individual freedom and collective collaboration align with spiritual ideals.

About the Presenter

Our speaker, Bobby grew up in California, one of two sons of a single mom. He navigated many of the struggles that come within his neighborhood, with too much life happening too quickly. By the time he was twenty-one, he found himself in trouble, which led to a 15-year prison sentence. Five years into his sentence, he discovered Anthroposophical Prison Outreach (APO), and it became a turning point in his life. Through APO, he was introduced to the works of Rudolf Steiner, which opened a path to self-reflection and spiritual growth. Over the next 10 years, he immersed himself in Anthroposophy, using it as a foundation for inner transformation. Along the way, he taught himself to play guitar, studied Western music theory, and developed skills as a visual artist—finding meaning and purpose through creativity. Now, having been free for three years, he’s dedicated the last year and a half to developing In.Sight—a platform inspired by Anthroposophical principles that support self-reflection and cultural renewal. In.Sight is the culmination of his experiences and desire to create something meaningful for others—a tool that empowers individuals to explore their life stories while fostering connection and transformation. His journey has taught him that even in life’s most challenging moments, one can find paths to growth and meaning. It’s this belief that drives his work today: helping others uncover the value of their own stories and contribute to something greater.

About the Presentation

In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, artificial intelligence is transforming how we communicate, understand, and process language. From chatbots and virtual assistants to machine translation and content creation, AI is reshaping the fabric of human interaction. What does this mean for the way we use and value language?

The paragraph above was created by ChatGPT (who, by the way, also made the image). It then continues: “While AI offers remarkable opportunities, it also poses significant risks. Automated systems can perpetuate biases, misinterpret context, or even spread misinformation at scale. The rise of AI-generated text and deepfakes challenge our ability to discern truth from fabrication. Furthermore, there’s a concern that over-reliance on AI tools may erode linguistic diversity, creativity, and critical thinking, as human input takes a back seat to machine efficiency.”

So, if all of this is true, what does it mean for human evolution? More specifically, what does it mean for the evolution of human thinking, and what is the future of human language? This webinar is going to explore these questions in the light of Rudolf Steiner’s spiritual science.
