Given to the Sacramento Anthroposophical Branch, this lecture explores the mystery of the “phantom” in anthroposophy, a spiritual seed of the future human being preserved from “the Fall” and placed in the Earth by Christ. Through the lens of Rudolf Steiner’s work, Dennis shares how humanity’s task today is to resurrect the fallen physical body using moral imagination and creative will.

From alchemical wisdom to the role of the elements and ethers, he shows how Christ became the Lord of the Elements and how the “electric double”, a shadow version of life through technology, challenges our inner development. Drawing on insights from Steiner, Wolfgang Pauli, and Carl Jung, this talk invites participants to reclaim their sense life through conscious image work, art, and daily aesthetic practice as a path toward spiritual freedom.
