This lecture was given at the Sacramento Anthroposophical Society Branch meeting and based on Rudolf Steiner’s philosophy of anthroposophy. It delves into the complex topic of the human “I” being and the concept of the double – entities that affect physical and psychological well-being. Dennis shares the influences of the ahrimanic double (associated with physical illness) and the luciferic double (linked with emotional and psychological difficulties). He also explores the significance of resistance and flow in human psyche and in life formation, highlighting its connection to bioelectricity.

Exercises using symbols from nature for producing inner pictures are given as a means of healing.

      Thank you for this gem of a lecture! Recently, a teacher gave a bit of a warning before offering the Foundation Stone meditation in a talk, that we need to be prepared for the reaction or resistance that comes with spiritual practices. Does Dennis have any advice on the protection practices in working with the images as they are offered in the nite. With gratitude
