How do you see yourself now? Now if you read this? I do not mean what you think of yourself. I think your perspective. Do you see Up from behind? From above? From the page? Or do you see yourself not at all? Do you feel more from the inside? Or both?
Can you you - like in a movie - from the outside and can you see yourself at the same time feel from the inside? How close is the camera? What perspective do you have on you?
Anthroposophy is one of several spiritual movements that such issues are temporary and do not deal in theory, but a lasting and practical.
I imagine now, before it would be a camera man with me, and I were with him by radio link. I had a screen and could see what he is filming. I would tell him to shoot me with one meter - from all sides. Only I would see on the screen. Let's call it a word, the integral self-centered perspective.
And then I imagine I would ask him to take as much distance that (except me) would film my family, my friends, my city and my country. I'm still here, but on my screen shows all the other fellows. Let's call it the integral ethnocentric Perspective.
If the camera man now (at my behest) even further back, he takes (except me, my family, my friends, my city and my country), but also have all other countries, people and living being on his camera. I'm still up to me, but I have the whole world in consciousness. It is a global perspective. Can we take a further step?
we send our camera man in the universe. The Earth, the planets, sun, moon and stars - all are on our screen and in our consciousness - Without that we lose ourselves and our neighbors have. We are both broad and focused. We relax in the concentration. We focus on infinity. Call it the cosmocentric perspective.
cosmocentric The perspective is a perspective of the simultaneity of the universe and soul background.
you hear the pounding of our own heart. She hears the beating of the heart of our children, friends, fellow citizens and world citizens. The cosmocentric perspective hears the throbbing heart of every living creature, and when stars have something like a heart, then we hear from this perspective, this heart. (How well it sounds?)
We feel in ourselves the whole universe. And the universe we feel. And when we see us from this perspective cosmocentric, awakens in us a spiritual self-confidence : It's me and it is true that I am here
How do you act from that perspective.. ? How do you eat? How you have sex? What do you think? How did you mother or father? What is your ethics? What is really important to you - from cosmocentric Perspective?

I AM in Worldwide -
and far is one's own being -
My eye is the heavens -
And the threads of life (nerve) end -
are the stars -
The stars in my world eye -
and my pupil of the moon -
see I - I see the sky -
And a point -
is the firmament
The firmament is my Soul -
My I-bearing soul.
Rudolf Steiner
