World conference? Yes!
This year’s conference of the Medical Section at the Goetheanum will be dedicated to the centenary of Anthroposophic Medicine.
The Medical Section would like to go ahead with its planned festivities in celebration of a hundred years of Anthroposophic Medicine. The preparation team is aware that there is still uncertainty as to whether travelling to the Goetheanum in September from outside Europe will be possible. Ways of holding the one or other event online are therefore being considered. Newly included in the programme are experiences and perspectives in relation to the Corona epidemic from the point of view of Anthroposophic Medicine.
Aside from the conference at the Goetheanum with the festive celebration at its centre, a hundred work groups, over twenty lectures and science and health-policy forums, various countries are planning regional conferences outside Europe.
In order to prepare for the conference, the young inter-professional team of organizers suggests contemplation of the following three questions arising from Rudolf Steiner’s ‘Bridge Lectures’ (GA 202), which will form the foundation for the conference:
1. How can I penetrate myself with an ideal so that it can become a seed of life that can strengthen my body and my surroundings?
2. Where can I sense, discover and develop the sources of my inner freedom and capacity for love?
3. How can we meet Michael, with his qualities of courage and knowledge-seeking? And Raphael with his healing karmic, and therefore community-inspiring, forces?
More ideas for preparing for the conference can be found on the Website of the Medical Section.
