Spiritual Science Research – Weleda course

A journey of inner spiritual development through the method “Learning by Doing” –

the Spiritual Science Research course takes place in Ilkeston, Weleda UK

with Inessa Burdich.

Weleda, Ilkeston, UK

The Spiritual Science Research course is a practical educational course on individual spiritual development based on the teaching of Rudolf Steiner, focusing on Spiritual Science Research and Anthroposophical Meditation. Steiner’s Anthroposophical Spiritual Science is not only a revelation of spiritual perceptions but also a call for us to embark on a personal path of Inner Development, a vital prerequisite to fulfilling our mission here on Earth. 

Since its beginning in 2018, more than 350 participants have taken the course, and it is currently (2024) facilitated in six languages.

The course consists of practical workshops and talks, each thematically interconnected. In every meeting, we immerse ourselves in the realm of supersensible ideas, principles, and phenomena introduced through the talks. These themes are then further explored in workshops, where we engage in research, Anthroposophical meditations, and perception exercises.

Our study mainly focuses on research on ourselves, humans, and our supersensible constitution. These are the first steps in spiritual diagnostics, where we learn and deepen our knowledge of the fundamental aspects of our inner soul and spiritual life. We are getting closer to understanding how to achieve a higher level of awareness of our inner life.

The path of self-development based upon Spiritual Science presented in this course will focus on you strengthening your “I” (your sense of Self) as a foundation of all spiritual work. We bring awareness to the whole of our individual system, especially in purifying and refining thinking and feelings, achieving subtle attentiveness and strengthening the will. We develop new capacities; we learn valuable skills that we then convey back to our personal and professional fields. These capacities lead to new insights and innovations one can bring to life, and all disciplines can benefit.
