The Mystery Dramas by Rudolf Steiner are a way living and understanding the modern path of initiation and perception of higher worlds. Every person that honestly works on the Mystery Dramas receives a great understanding on the human being and its relationship with the whole world. We can read many books from the anthroposophical bibliography and learn much about man and the higher worlds, but in the Mystery Dramas we have a concrete image on life itself for the disciple to initiation in modern times. If we take this images into our daily life we can have a deeper understanding of the forces that we meet at every step we make.
This summer you have the opportunity to experience the Mystery Dramas of Rudolf Steiner as they will be explored through a modern and personal interpretation. Those involved are hoping to share an experience of the karma consciousness that arises out of working with the Dramas. During the four days preceding the summer performances, actors, philosopher’s, artists, the young, the old and all those interested in the mysteries, will join together to study the Dramas as they relate to each one’s life in a personal and unique way.
Each day we will consider how a different biographical theme from the Dramas is carried through the characters and scenes. From this ground we will seek to discover the relevance of these themes in our own lives by working with the questions like: How do the themes in the Dramas speak to my particular journey through life, in the past and in the daily moment, as a new mystery experience? Through what process do I observe such themes in my daily life? “How” am I uniquely becoming conscious of them? Can I develop this process so that it becomes a free and loving path of inner development and transformation?
Plenums with actors, character presentation, performances of scene fragments played around the Goetheanum, workshops: modern initiation, consciousness of nature and elemental beings, biographical study groups, art, philosophy, eurythmy and open spaces for new initiatives.
