Rudolf Steiner’s Calendar of the Soul, Verse 11
Introduced by Dan and Gritli Rabin
Es ist in dieser Sonnenstunde
An dir, die weise Kunde zu erkennen:
An Weltenschönheit hingegeben In dir dich fühlend zu durchleben:
Verlieren kann das Menschen-Ich Und finden sich im Welten-Ich.
In this time of sunlight
You must recognize the message of wisdom
Surrendered to world beauty,
Experience your own feeling:
The human I can lose itself
And find itself in the cosmic I.
(trans. Dan and Gritli Rabin)
Devoting our senses to the dazzling sunlight and exuberant growth of nature activates our Feeling. This outward gesture of appreciation brings our personal I into the realm of the cosmic I and facilitates our self discovery.
