Rudolf Steiner is the renowned Austrian scholar, spiritual teacher, Goethe expert, originator of bio-dynamic agriculture and founder of a new educational method, (the Steiner schools). He also founded new modalities in medicine and psychology, and a new artistic impetus for both the visual and performing arts.
Dr. Anderson as a young man spent some years in a hut alone in the mountains, engaged in the meditative study of Steiner's works. Today he is an authority in Steiner's worldview (anthroposophy), and a scholar in German literature and ancient Greek spiritual texts. In his Ph.D. thesis, a world-first research project funded by Monash University, he analysed Steiner's spiritual-esoteric worldview, identifying and contextualizing its primary elements and the Goethean qualities underlying his epistemology; Dr. Anderson is consequently an academically qualified expert in the spiritual teachings of Rudolf Steiner.
