The Trinity

The author of this book is a priest in the Christian community, the spiritual movement arising from the teaching of Rudolf Steiner, who himself wrote a great deal about the Christ. The treatment is systematic, explaining an understanding of the principles expressed in Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The spirit is associated with wisdom and beauty as well as healing and creativity. The author highlights the female aspect of the spirit in his treatment. He explains the development of the doctrine of the Trinity and a threefold unity explained by Steiner working in both nature (mineral, plant, animal) and human beings (body, soul, spirit). We find polarities at work, with a dynamic balance in the middle, which is also reflected in the cycle of seasons and the Christian year.
