Steiner's words for teachers

You who out of heaven’s brightness,

Now descend to earthly darkness,

Thus, through life’s resisting forces

Spirit radiance to unfold

Spirit warmness to enkindle

Spirit powers to call forth

Be you warmed through my love

Radiant thinking

Tranquil feeling

Healing willing.

That in Spirit’s heights well‐rooted

And in earth’s foundations working

You may servants of the Word become

Spirit illumining

Love evoking

Being strengthening.

Rudolf Steiner
