The healthy social life is found
when in the mirror of each human soul
the whole community finds its reflection,
and when in the community
the virtue of each one is living.
This is the Motto of Social Ethic.
-Rudolf Steiner

Happy 164th anniversary of Rudolf Steiner’s birth on February 25 (or 27), 1861
and centennial anniversary of his threshold crossing on March 30, 2025
This Saturday : June 7, 2025 at 11 a.m. (MT) the Front Range Anthroposophical Café presents:
Richard Steel
Kaspar Hauser:
Herold of a New Whitsun Experience
Kaspar Hauser appeared out of nowhere during the Whitsun festival in Nuremberg. Whitsun – the traditional festival of the Holy Spirit and of the individual and the community was certainly chosen deliberately to dispose of the “leftovers” of the high being that Kaspar Hauser really was. Could it have been a deliberate attack on the content of Whitsun too? What does this mean for us today? Do we need to awaken the deeper meaning of Whitsun anew? To connect to the higher being of Kaspar Hauser who was not allowed to live his outer destiny?

Richard Steel was born in Oxford, England and studied linguistics before moving to Camphill in Germany in 1972. He completed the Camphill Seminar for Curative Education and lived and worked in community with young people with multiple disabilities for 36 years. Richard and his family also spent time in Camphill in North America.
In 2008 Richard founded the Karl König Institute which now has offices in Scotland, Germany and North America. He began publishing a new edition of König’s works which currently comprises 24 volumes in English and German. The Institute’s aim is to make Karl König’s healing impulses widely available for meeting the world needs of today – and for this purpose Richard also lectures in Europe, Great Britain and Scandinavia.
Richard’s exploration of the Calendar of the Soul was lit up over five decades by what Rudolf Steiner and Karl König brought. And after Richard gave a yearlong series of talks on the Soul Calendar and König’s drawings, his new English translation of the 52 verses was published in 2023. See: Publications.
