This lecture series addresses the esoteric process of building the “spirit embryo,” a transformative journey often associated with the “second birth” or “New Adam” in Christian iconography. Designed for spiritual seekers, meditative practitioners, and anyone interested in deepening their understanding of human and cosmic consciousness, the series joins physiological insights, spiritual practices, and anthroposophical teachings. Through these lectures, you will explore the evolution of the physical, life, and soul bodies into spiritual states and learn tools to balance inner processes and foster personal growth.
