Spiritual Science in the 21st Century

Spiritual Science in the 21st Century: Transforming Evil, Meeting the Other, and Awakening to the Global Initiation of Humanity

With love, humor, and brilliant insight, Ben-Aharon addresses some of the most critical questions of our age, ranging from artificial intelligence and global politics to education and postmodern philosophy. Although tackling a wide range of subjects, this accessible anthology—delivered initially as lectures in locations as diverse as New York, Oslo, and Munich—features a coherent inner rhythm. With his lively and intense presentations, the speaker invites us to share and participate in the creative process and dynamic activity of incarnating new ideas—indeed, to awaken to the very spirit of our time.

Ben-Aharon discusses his investigations into the spiritual event of the twenty-first century—the activities of spiritual beings in North America, Central Europe, Scandinavia, and Israel; the renewal of education; the creative transformation of antisocial forces; Israel’s diverse culture in the midst of the clash of civilizations; the new Christ event and how it can break through our habitual patterns and our hardened thinking, feeling, and will; and today’s mission of the anthroposophic movement.

Informed throughout by decades of spiritual research and intimate experience, this volume contains mature and illuminating explorations into contemporary culture, history, and Spiritual Science.
