Yes, that is the Christ. This is how my spiritual eye perceived him in Palestine.Rudolf Steiner (speaking of his sculpture, The Representative of Humanity)Rudolf Steiner referred to The Representative of Humanitythe wooden group sculpture of the figure of Christ surrounded by adversary spiritual beingsas the center of the first Goetheanum. Steiner even told the architect of the second Goetheanum that the sculpture he made with Edith Maryon should occupy the same central position it did in the first building.What was Steiners essential purpose for the sculptural group within the mystery building he conceived, and why did he regard it as the crown of the building? What were his intentionsspecifically, what were the spiritual aims behind Steiners remarkable depiction of Christ?Steiner described the core purpose of Anthroposophy to be a preparation for Christ's etheric reappearance. The Christ he sculpted was not the possession of a specific community with a religious worldview, but a being active in all of humanity and, thus, a figure of the future.In this focused and powerful short book, Peter Selg engages with these highly contemporary issues, providing thoughtful insights and answers that point to mysteries of the future and humanity's development and the transformation of evil. It was my task in Dornach to place within this building of the School of Spiritual Science the central group, which depicts the Representative of Humanity between luciferic and ahrimanic powers. Rudolf SteinerThis volume was originally published in German as Die Gestalt Christi (Verlag des Ita Wegman Instituts, 2008).
