The Foundation Stone

This volume brings together two classic booklets: "The Foundation Stone" and "Life, Nature and the Cultivation of Anthroposophy". The former contains Rudolf Steiner's comments on the Foundation Stone Meditation made during the refounding of the Anthroposophical Society at the Christmas Conference of 1923/24. This key meditation holds a central place in the meditative life of many students of Steiner's work. The second part contains a number of letters which Rudolf Steiner wrote to members of the Anthroposophical Society following the Christmas Conference. In them, he gave valuable thoughts and guidelines regarding the new character of the Society and its conduct and relation to the world following its refounding.
