I have made ready a room
Here in my heart
With walls of warmth
And windows of color
Towards every side of the cosmosOceans, mountains and clouds
Are without,
Within – loving and light;
And here I invite you to come
Dear being I love.Lead me in what you have learned
Now you have left your earthly
Body with so long suffering
And become a heavenly star

In the gathering darkness before the light of Advent, we take thought for those who have crossed the threshold. With readings and poetry, eurythmy and music we will enrich our sensing of our unseen companions. You may bring a list of those you wish to remember and read them aloud.
“In fact, everything that takes place in human beings through the outer world can be perceived by the spirit, including human souls who have passed through the gate of death….The dead can experience with us what we experience in the physical world. This is because these experiences belong not only to our world but also to theirs. Our experiences belong to their world when we thoroughly spiritualize what we experience in the outer world with spiritual ideas. Otherwise, what we experience as the effects of matter remains dark and incomprehensible to the dead. To the dead, a soul devoid of spirit is a dark soul. This is why the dead have become estranged from earthly life. We must overcome this estrangement. The so-called dead and the so-called living must learn again to live together inwardly…..” Rudolf Steiner, Cosmic and Human Metamorphoses.

We invite you to join us to share in the story of our dear friend, Hong Zhao.
She will shed light on the relationship of Taoism to Anthroposophy as she traces her Chinese roots.
"My spiritual seeking began with the birth of my daughter. After I got my Master's degree in Electronic Engineering and was involved in the High-tech industry for years, I was so arrogant that I believed that science was the absolute truth and could be the resolution for everything. But during my first struggling parenting, I had to admit that my baby, as a messenger from the higher world, couldn't be explained by only abstract logic thinking. And my training in nature science couldn't provide me with any knowledge about the invisible world and the truth of human beings.
In order to gain that knowledge, my enthusiasm in ancient wisdom became strongly rekindled and I was attracted by the marvelous ancient Chinese wisdom in philosophy, medicine, and arts which was also different from what I learned for many years in Western arts. Many thoughts sounded so fascinating to me, for example: Everything has an origin in the spiritual world and human beings are the highest spirit among the natural world. As the mediator, between heaven and earth, we strive to be harmonious with the cosmos and unite with all creatures. Among all the educational systems, I found only one, Waldorf education, based on Anthroposophy, which has a similar spiritual viewpoint and puts those thoughts into practice.
We moved from China to the US and my daughter began her Waldorf school journey at 3 years old. I continued my study in Chinese medicine and philosophy, especially TAO, which changed me greatly and helped me effectively expand my mindsets. I began to have the ability to accept ideas that seemed contradictory and see through things in different layers, which lay a solid foundation for my later Anthroposophical study. Many questions arose continually within me, "Why does the harmonious, beautiful and elegant time in ancient China have to be gone? Why does the human being have to endure degradation in soul and spirit? I couldn't find clear answers in ancient wisdom. With these questions I joined WISC at the magical age of 35…"
