![]() Dear friends,
As General Secretary for the Anthroposophical Society in Australia I heartily encourage you to make time in life for a wonderful few days of long, deep-reaching, wide-ranging dialogue with Constanza Kaliks and Bodo von Plato at our Annual Conference in Perth. This is Bodo’s final journey as a member of the Goetheanum Executive. He and Constanza work in stimulating and poetic symbiosis, and I am certain you will draw rich nourishment from this experience, in addition to enjoying the feast for body and soul that the Perth organisers are preparing for us. See you in Perth! Jan Baker-Finch ![]() Welcome!
The Western Australia Branch of the Anthroposophical Society in Australia invites you to the 2018 Annual Conference to be held in Perth in August. Our guest presenters are Bodo von Plato and Constanza Kaliks from Dornach. Using dialogue and discussion, rather than formal lectures, our guests will be exploring a new way of working with groups. This is a unique opportunity to share in what will be an extraordinary gathering of souls. We will explore the realm of ‘Heart Thinking’: in particular, the themes of ‘Perceiving with the heart’ and ‘When knowing becomes love.’ The venue is the same as we used in 2008 for the Michael Easter Festival, which featured the new Mystery Drama “The Beemaster”: Point Walter Reserve. We in the WA Branch are intent on creating the space for those in attendance to experience the spiritual beings that will gather with us. Please come and share this time with us!
