From Cynthia Hoven, creator of eurythmyonline.com.
This is the 7th and final lecture in a series on "What does is mean to be a human being in the age of digital technology?" This recording recalls all the steps taken in the development of the series, which began with a study of the Archangel Michael, the guiding spirit of the age of the consciousness soul. It then continues with the study of the human being as a spiritual being who lives in a physical, etheric and astral body, and with a review of the four planetary conditions necessary as preparatory steps for this human condition to arise. We then look as the scleroticizing forces of the present age, born out of our materialistic mindset yet necessary to create our human future of individuated freedom. In our present age, many forces work together as challenges to our development, threatening to dull our consciousness and thwart our intended development towards love, truth, beauty and goodness. Primary among these forces in our age are the forces of digital technology. We concluded this series by speaking about the urgent necessity for us to discover and cultivate our etheric forces, blessed and developed through the gift of Resurrection forces, those Christ-blessed forces that overcome death of the physical and also of the consciousness forces.
