During a retreat in Basel in February 2025, I visited the Goetheanum as a tourist. When the majestic building appeared before me, I felt an instant connection\u2014almost like a calling. I applied for the English course and arrived in September 2025, knowing almost nothing about Anthroposophy. My only intention was to learn something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The teachers and classmates came from around the world, bringing diverse perspectives and a vibrant spirit. Our studies ranged from nature observation and eurythmy to philosophy, social theory, and art. We also joined special activities\u2014tours, conferences, and performances\u2014which enriched our experience and opened our hearts. The entire program felt like an inspired, adult version of Waldorf Education. The greatest gift of this course has been the profound dialogues between teachers and students\u2014intellectually alive and spiritually grounded. With classmates from fourteen countries and multilingual teachers who are masters of their fields, our conversations reached a rare depth. This collective exchange awakened a higher consciousness in us all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At 56, with a doctorate from Oxford and years of teaching behind me, I can say this learning has transformed me beyond imagination. I now feel my time has come to live fully and to carry the light of Anthroposophy back to my home, Hong Kong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Contact <\/strong><a href=\"mailto:dr.redmagic@gmail.com\">dr.redmagic@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Translation <\/strong>Paula Boslau<br><strong>Image<\/strong> Private<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hong Kong, China.
