“Kaspar Hauser: Understanding his task as related to the world today." with Richard Steel

“Kaspar Hauser: Understanding his task as related to the world today." with Richard Steel

How does our time reflect the events of the 19th century and transform them?

It is important for us to know that the forces of evil are very strong in the world - and unfortunately those helpers of evil in the world take spiritual matters much more seriously and consequentially than most students of anthroposophy do! That is, however, not a reason to be dismayed....maybe one to awaken us and give our conscience a prod!
We anyway need to recognize the reality of the words that Goethe put into the mouth of Mephistopheles - when asked by Faust who he is, he answers: Part of that force that always wills the evil and always produces the good.
The story of Kaspar Hauser is a very central example of just this. Being hindered from his truly grand mission for the transformation of Europe, certainly also a mission that would have changed the world, he arose out of the darkness to become "the Child of Europe" - today possibly "the Child of the World", reminding us of the riddle that the human being itself is; reminding us of our own battle with the forces of darkness, and then being victorious in death, carrying something into the darkness of the threshold that can bring tremendous light to our threshold situation of today.
