The Anthroposophical Path of Knowledge, course with Robert McKay will take place online over 10 consecutive Sundays from Sunday, February 23 to Sunday, April 27. There will be two groups, taking place at different times:
Group 1 – 8:00 am to 9:30 am EST
Group 2 – 11:00 am to 12:30 pm EST
You are cordially invited to participate in an online (Zoom) course of study and practice of the anthroposophical meditative path. This participatory group-learning process is designed for people who are interested in developing toward the disciplined clairvoyance required to conduct research in the soul and spiritual worlds. The course will be of use to both individuals who are new to anthroposophical meditation and to those already engaged in an anthroposophical meditative practice.
The course will cover much of the content provided by Dr. Rudolf Steiner regarding the anthroposophical path with selected readings from several texts. It will clarify the foundational practices and disciplines required to safely undertake the ascent to spiritual consciousness. It will include a practical introduction to many key anthroposophical exercises and mantras that are available to the general public. By the end of the process, you will have a deeper understanding of how anthroposophical meditation changes a person, how to proceed safely into expanded forms of consciousness, and how to develop a meditative regimen suited to your unique personality.
Each group will consist of no more than 16 people and will meet for 10 consecutive weeks for 90 minutes. In order for the group to function best, it is important that participants make a commitment to attend each session. Please consider if you can realistically commit to participating in most, if not all, of the 10 weekly sessions. Each session will include a brief lecture component, a discussion component, and practical work with one or more meditative exercises. Between group sessions, during the week, participants will be asked to practice exercises of their choosing and come ready to discuss their experiences at the next session. Actual practice is important as often the instructions for an exercise can only be truly understood by trying it out several times.
This course is offered free to participants. If possible, I would ask you consider contributing $100 CAD to support the Toronto Branch of the Anthroposophical Society in Canada. Please note, regardless of any possible contribution, all are most welcome to participate. Following the course, should participants be interested, I would be happy to support you in your meditative path through scheduled discussions every few months or so. This support is also a free offering. While climbing the path requires intensive individual commitment, it can be helpful to discuss how the work is going with a follow traveller from time to time.
If you are interested in registering, please email me at robertmckay@rogers.com or phone/text me at (647) 981-6298 and let me know which of the two timeslots is best for you. If none of these times work but you are interested in the course, please let me know as I will try to offer the course again in 2025 at different times. Please feel free to forward this document to anyone you think might be interested.
