Planetary Consciousness

“Mind does not operate as the servant of the egos of individuals, or of any situations in historical time or local space. It operates in terms of the evolution of the entire system – and in relation to the galactic whole of which this heliocosm is but a small cellular unit. It operates in terms of planetary consciousness.”

–Dane Rudhyar (a.k.a. Daniel Chenneviere, French-born American Composer, Theosophist and Astrologer, 1895-1985)

–Albert Einstein

“The drop of water has the same relationship to the sea that the “I” has to the Divine. People can find the Divine within themselves because their innermost being is drawn from the Divine.”    

–Rudolf Steiner (Croatian-born Austrian Mystic, Occultist, Social Philosopher, Architect and Founder of Anthroposophy, 1861-1925)           

“An Outline of Esoteric Science (Classics in Anthroposophy)” (Rudolf Steiner)
