Family Flöz presents «Teatro Delusio» Life in the shadow of the spotlight and the glittering world of illusion

Welcome!The title of this year’s conference, «…and growing, root me in existence», is the last line of a verse from Rudolf Steiner’s Soul Calendar. It tells the story of the de-velopment of human being and cosmos, of I and world, of the growing autonomy of the I and its dedication to the present. The title line could also be construed as the primal scene of curative education of social therapy, in which the transforma-tion of the world and the development of the human being merge into a common formative gesture.

In the lectures and workshops we will work with the theme of I development from multiple perspectives, because, after all, the effectiveness of all curative educa-tional or social therapeutic work depends on whether it succeeds in awakening and helping to strengthen the child’s, youth’s or adult’s inner impulse toward self-development.

In working through the lectures in Steiner’s Curative Education Course, the 4th lecture stands out, and its themes will be the motifs for our workshops and lec-tures.

It has been more than 90 years since Rudolf Steiner held this course in Dornach for a small group of 21 people. Out of their strength of initiative, a worldwide movement has come into being that can now be found in 50 countries. This work is still developing, and receives its motivation and impetus through the indivi-dual, communal and societal needs for a culture of development, inclusion and sharing.

This international conference is organized by the «Council for Curative Education and Social Therapy». In it, people across national borders regularly work together on how to realize concrete proposals and institutions, and on the fundamental question of how curative education and social therapy, which were developed out of a spiritual, anthroposophical view of the human being, can continue to develop their own special contribution to today’s cultural life and society.

We look forward to your presence and participation, and hope that this confe-rence will be an important event in our movement: days of continuing education and learning, meetings with people from all over the world, and a celebratory gathering!

Mysteriously to feel withinThe quickening of the treasured pastWith selfhood newly risenThis shall arousing forces of the worldPour itself into my life‘s outer workAnd growing, root me in existenceRudolf Steiner, Soul Calender, Week 34

2. Raffaella BrambillaBetween the point and the circleOur ego lives both in the centre and in the periphery, it has a double re-lationship with the world: on the one hand, the ego forms images from the world within and, on the other, the ego acts in the world, leaving its mark. Images may develop into memories; our actions will weave the thread of our destiny that we can recognize only through encounters with other human beings.

Christiane DrechslerDeveloping the individual and building communityBesides their orientation to the an-throposophic view of humanity, the distinctiveness of anthroposophic lifesharing communities consists of their work-life union.
