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

This Saturday, October 3rd at 11 a.m. MT, the Front Range Anthroposophical Café presents:
Maureen Amelia and Eytan Bloch
How can the human heart remain alive in times of grief, violence and evil?
(Facing contemporary evil with Manichaean prayers in communion with the dead)
In moments of trauma, loss and crisis, prayers can seem powerless. Yet “Iron Swords Prayers,” received in the midst of the October 7th war, offer an unexpected way of facing evil without being swallowed by it. They are not prayers of escape, but of transformation: they do not ask us to deny evil, but to ask whether evil has a purpose in the development of mankind.
The prayers do not require agreement. They require honesty: a willingness to stand still in the presence of suffering and consider that even here, freedom has not vanished. Every inward act of clarity, gratitude, forgiveness and compassion – and every quiet decision to remain human – contributes to a larger moral horizon. “Iron Swords Prayers” are an invitation into that horizon.
Maureen Amelia, a curative Eurythmist, medical clown, storyteller and Enneagram journey therapist, and Eytan Bloch, a biographical counselor, listening circle (Council) facilitator and focusing teacher, have together accompanied the realization of “Ripples of the Heart” for the last 10 years through books, performances and workshop retreats. Their book, Iron Swords Prayers is available via Amazon.
