The Human Soul: Encounters, Bridges and Cosmopolitanism
Description
A contribution by Constanza Kaliks
Welcome lecture
In a certain sense, Rudolf Steiner continually represents what he built up and what remains to be built up: namely, building bridges and establishing relationships. In a certain sense, this meeting of Alma Humana also relates to this. They are people who, year after year, from one moment to the next, are repeatedly prepared to build new bridges in order to strengthen what connects.
At the “Alma Humana” event at the Goetheanum marking the 100th anniversary of Rudolf Steiner’s death, Constanza Kaliks presents anthroposophy as a cosmopolitan reality that builds bridges between cultures, languages and people. Starting from Steiner’s later work, she provokes: understanding the past is not enough to act ethically today – what matters is to awaken the deep voice of conscience. The video invites viewers to live this contemporary call for peace and responsibility in their own soul.
A contribution by Constanza Kaliks to the conference “Alma Humana!” in July 2025 at the Goetheanum.
