Organised by WALDORF STEINER EDUCATION ASSOCIATION OF SINGAPORE




Two Interesting Talks by Anand Mandaiker in November 2011:

1. The Spirituality of the Child –Friday, Nov 11, 6.30pm to 9.30pm


2. Three Symbols of Michael – Monday, Nov 28, 6.30pm to 9.30pm


Brief Outline of “The Spirituality of the Child”:

The different stages of childhood, as described by Rudolf Steiner, are
the pillars on which waldorf education is based. The faculties of the
child differ during the different stages. Because of this, the child,
at each stage, relates differently to the world around us and to the
spiritual world. For those accompanying the journey of the child it is
important to be aware of this fact. Not surprisingly, we find the
different stages of childhood also mentioned in olden day scriptures.



Brief Outline of “The Three Symbols of Michael”:

Each epoch in history has a certain quality and connected with this
quality a task for mankind. Just like an angel accompanies the journey
of individual human beings, archangels accompany mankind during
periods of time. Michael is the archangel of our times. To understand
the quality of Michael and our task during his reign, it may be
helpful to look at how he has been depicted in art through the
centuries. The sword or lance, the scales and the globe with the cross
are three symbols that were used to depict the specific quality of
Michael.
