Rudolf Steiner’s Ethers
I believe Rudolf Steiner has said (I forget where) that we should work things out for ourselves and not take his word as Gospel. So, without the benefit of being able to read directly from the Akasha chronicle, how might I accept the possibility of peripheral etheric forces? If an idea is universal, it is…

[Old] Book Two: Goethe, Steiner and the Ancient Greeks – or – Rethinking the Nature of Substance
This book – if I even manage to write it(!) – will be a big philosophical work. I intend it to be based on a number of ideas and indications I discovered in the course of my researches on the original book…

[Old] Chapter 17: Conclusions – Rethinking the Nature of Substance [New Ch.21 V0.2]
In this book I hope to have introduced the minimum of knowledge necessary to attain at least the beginnings of an understanding of one of the greatest scientific challenges that I am aware. The existence of the phenomenon of biological transmutation of chemical (isotopic) elements would not be denied by pretty much every scientist on…

[Old] Chapter 15: Nick Thomas – Space and Counterspace [New Ch.19 V0.2]
Nick Thomas, based on indications by Rudolf Steiner, developed a mathematical formulation of his etheric conceptions based on projective geometry. …

[Old] Chapter 14: Rudolf Steiner – A Spiritual Scientific World View [New Ch.16 V0.1]
Rudolf Steiner took the philosophical ideas which were implicit in the works of Goethe and took them further. Significantly further. It has taken me many years to even begin to understand just some of his philosophical and scientific ideas…

[Old] Space and Counterspace [New Ch.19 V0.1]
Exploring Nick Thomas’s projective geometry work – developing a mathematical science of a linked space and counterspace – based on indications from Rudolf Steiner and the work of George Adams in particular. His work showed great promise – independently arriving at the spherical wave equation for the chemical behaviour of the atom – but derived…

[Old] Preface: The Book Begins V0.1
Rudolf Steiner wrote and lectured on many scientific themes and gave many indications for further research. This blog is a personal sandpit for me to play in – a place for me to explore some of these ideas.
