Product Description
Biodynamic agriculture, which has increased consistently in popularity over the years, was born in June 1924 from a single course of eight lectures by Rudolf Steiner in Koberwitz (now in Poland). In The Agriculture Course, Koberwitz, Whitsun 1924, Peter Selg presents a remarkable study of the context of Steiner's lectures, conveying a tangible sense of the celebratory mood and atmosphere of those events at Pentecost. He highlights Steiner's intentions for the course--and parallel lectures in Breslau--by drawing widely on the available literature and numerous archival sources.

Recognizing that chemical manipulation of agriculture was neither desirable nor sustainable, Steiner helped launch an agricultural movement whose outlook is truly pioneering in spirit. As Selg describes, Steiner saw that "what was needed instead was new, conscious insight into life forces and laws, into the nature of organisms, into the diverse realms of nature, and the determining factors of both Earth and cosmos that influence them." The vivid picture painted here reveals the importance that Steiner placed on launching this work, as well as the extent to which his initiative offered an answer to the emerging forces of cultural and political destruction that would lead to World War II. ...

This is the seminal source for Biodynamic farming.
Before Organic farming and gardening, a product of the 1960's revival ofawareness of the importance of healthy food and environmental awarenessthere were already healthy roots in Western Mysticism. (Read alsoBlavatsky, Besant and Leadbeater) In 1926 Rudolph Steiner delivered aseries of lectures to a loyal group of Anthroposophists in Koberwitz,Austria.Reading the text of the lectures is a rare, deep draught of theriver of arcane knowledge.In order to absorb it, you must float yourselfin it and sink down into it, perhaps to drown.This is not a how-to book. There are some very successful applications of the principles and processesdescribed in the lectures in Australia and North America, which includesthe Biodynamic Association in Kimberton, Pennsylvania.Organic gardeningis only the first step in reclaiming sustainable and healthy agriculture,and the application of the principles outlined in this book may be animportant next step. ...
