THE RELATIONSHIP OF
ANTHROPOSOPHY & YOGA
David Taulbee Anderson
These lectures focus on the processes involved
in meditation as described in
anthroposophy and Raja Yoga.
The fruits can be of great practical benefit in all life and culture.
Part 6: Laya Yoga (Kundalini
Yoga): The yoga of development
of the Chakras or Lotus Flowers—etheric organs that can
perceive higher worlds. We will
explore their relations to the physical body and to
its supersensible environment. Next date: 3/11.
DAVID TAULBEE ANDERSON: has taught drawing
& Wagner painting around the world, and has given
lecture series on anthroposophy, Goethean science,
and related subjects for several years. He holds an
MA in Art and certificates from Emerson College
(Waldorf education), and the Wagner School at the
Goetheanum (teaching painting).

Performance - The Actors’ Ensemble
WASHINGTON SQUARE – by Henry James
Bethany Caputo, Chris Smith,
Fern Sloan, and Ted Pugh
The Actors’ Ensemble presents Washington Square,
Henry James’ tragic story
of a woman’s relationship
with her father and a possible fortune hunter. Faithful
to James’ original text, four
actors narrate the story and
play all of the characters in
this 19th century masterpiece. In development since
2011, it comes to NYC after
an initial run in Spencertown, NY.
THE ACTORS’ ENSEMBLE: founded in 1985 in New York City
by a group of professional actors (members of Anthroposophy
NYC) inspired by acting techniques taught by Russian-born
actor Michael Chekhov. TAE has created and performed
theatre productions across the US and in Europe, developed a
two year college level acting program through Sunbridge College, and in March 2015 will open a new acting school—the
Michael Chekhov School, to be located at Solaris, 360 Warren
Street, in Hudson, NY.

Evening Lecture - topic tbd
Thomas Meyer
The St. Mark Group has studied many
Steiner books over a hundred plus years
but not, perhaps, the mystery dramas. Inspired by last summer’s Festival, the group has taken up the first play, The
Portal of Initiation, reading and discussing it in a circle. A
new book is a good time to join any group, and this a special
chance to get to know these remarkable plays which explore
and reveal the karmic connections and reincarnation paths
of spiritually-seeking individuals up to the 20th century.
The group meets Wednesdays at 5:30pm; just come!
Dyson:
A favorite visitor, Dr. James Dyson,
visits again on March 18th, at 7pm.
James is an anthroposophic physician whose special interests
include child development, mental health, and psychosynthesis psychology. He was a co-founder of Park Attwood
Clinic where he worked for 25 years. His topic for this evening lecture will be “The Soul’s Two Paths to the Threshold:
Buddha and Zarathustra in Our Times.” Rudolf Steiner’s
research connects two great leaders of humanity, Buddha
and Zarathustra, to two paths, one leading the soul outward
into the elements, the other inward, transforming the three
soul forces of thought, feeling, and will. In our times, Steiner
points to the need to integrate them so that the principle of
initiation becomes the principle of civilization.
SteinerBooks:
The annual research
seminar returns to
NYC with “Rudolf Steiner’s Years of Preparation (1861–
1900). March 20–21, 2015, at the Kimmel Center of New
York University. Dr. Peter Selg will give three lectures on
outer and inner aspects of Steiner’s life and circumstances up
to his fortieth year; Rahel Kern, author of a recent biography
of Marie Steiner, will speak on “Marie Steiner-von Sivers’
Karmic Path”; Christopher Bamford will speak on “Rudolf
Steiner’s Life as a Path to Understanding Anthroposophy”;
Sea-Anna Vasilas will lead periods of eurythmy.
Jericho:
Longtime ASNYC member and
frequent presenter Lynn Jericho, now
living in Chapel Hill, NC, returns March 27-28. The Friday
evening talk is “When Two or More Are Gathered: The
Mystery of Conversation and Spiritual Beings.” How do two
or more human beings engage in conversations that invite
the attention and participation of spiritual beings, primarily angels, archangels, archai? How do we experience their
presence? Once developed, how can this capacity be applied
to other supersensible beings: the dead, the unborn, nature
spirits, and the counter forces? The Saturday workshop is
“The Karma of Relationships: Lover...Friend...Stranger...
Enemy...” Every single relationship has a karmic purpose!
The karma of a relationship is not the dramatic story, but the
difference it made, how it shaped your soul...
