Title: Rudolf Steiner
Post by: erik on August 06, 2009, 08:05:09 PM

I just finished Steiner's book 'An Outline of Occult Science' (http://wn.rsarchive.org/Books/GA013/English/AP1972/GA013_index.html) and it is a very impressive piece of work. However, I'm puzzled by his focus on Christ-event in human development - he outlines how Christ is connected to a super-being in charge of our solar system dwelling on Sun - and not a single mentioning of Buddha.

Some authors have said that Steiner viewed Christ/Christ energy as a centre point of all religions.

But I wonder...

You are correct about Buddha - can't say he never gave a lecture on that subject, but it never figured greatly in his cosmology to my knowledge. I agree it does seem to be an omission.
