I'm just going to do a quick reading of Rudolf Steiner from a piece of writing he did in 1917, I think the month of October, the 7th. And I'm not going to do a commentary on it; I'm just going to read what he wrote.

And you can make of it what you will. Or, in so doing, you can find the window in which will giving the truth through its glass, and in which can be applied to modern contemporary society. Whatever you wish to interpret this piece of writing as—quote—will be the main concern of these...

spirits of darkness to bring confusion into the rightful elements which are now spreading on Earth and need to spread in such a way that the spirits of light can continue to be active in them. They will seek to push these in the wrong direction. I have already spoken of one such wrong

direction, which is about as paradoxical as is possible. I have pointed out that while human bodies will develop in such a way that certain spiritualities can find room in them, the materialistic bent which will spread more and more under the guidance of the spirit of darkness will work against

this and combat it by physical means. I have told you that the spirits of darkness are going to inspire their human hosts, in whom they will be dwelling, to find a vaccine that will drive all inclination towards spirituality out of people's souls when they are still very young.

And this will happen in a roundabout way through the living body. Today, bodies are vaccinated against one thing and another. In future, children will be vaccinated with a substance which it will certainly be possible to produce, and this will make them immune so that they do not develop...

Foolish inclinations connected with spiritual life—foolish, of course, in the eyes of materialists. The whole trend goes in a direction where a way will finally be found to vaccinate bodies so that these bodies will not allow the inclination towards

spiritual ideas to develop, and all their lives people will believe only in the physical world they perceive with the senses. People are now vaccinated against consumption, and in the same way they will be vaccinated against any inclination towards spirituality. This is merely to give you a

particularly striking example of many things which will come in the near and more distant future in this field; the aim being to bring confusion into the impulses which want to stream down to earth after the victory of the spirit of light. The first step must be to throw

people's views into confusion, turning their concepts and ideas inside out. This is a serious thing and must be watched with care, for it is part of some highly important elements which will be the background to events now in preparation. It is pathological for people to even

think in terms of spirit and soul. "Sound" people will speak of nothing but the body. It will be considered a sign of illness for anyone to arrive at the idea of any such thing as a spirit or soul. People who think like that will be considered to be sick, and you can be

quite sure that a medicine will be found for this. The soul will be made non-existent with the aid of a drug, taking a "sound" point of view. People will invent a vaccine to influence the organism as early as possible, preferably as soon as it is born, so that

This human body never even gets the idea that there is a soul and a spirit. The two philosophies of life will be in complete opposition. One movement will need to reflect how concepts and ideas may be developed to meet the reality of soul and spirit.

The others, the heirs of modern materialism, will look for the vaccine to make the body 'healthy'; that is, make its constitution such that this body no longer talks of such rubbish as soul and spirit, but talks a 'sound' view of the forces which live in engines and

in chemistry, and that planets and suns arise from nebulae in the cosmos. Materialistic physicians will be asked to drive the souls out of humanity. If you enjoyed this video and wish to support the channel, you can by becoming a member of the Thoughts on Thinking

A reading of a text by Rudolf Steiner from October 7th, 1917, without commentary.

The spirits of darkness aim to cause confusion regarding the spreading of rightful elements on Earth.

Spirits of darkness will push these elements in the wrong direction.

Materialistic bent will combat the development of spirituality.

The development of a vaccine against spirituality

A vaccine will be developed to suppress spiritual inclinations in children.

This vaccine will make people immune to spiritual development.

The goal is to create bodies that only believe in the physical world.

This is an example of future attempts to confuse impulses from the spirit of light.

The consequences of suppressing spiritual beliefs

The first step is to confuse people's views and turn their concepts inside out.

Thinking in terms of spirit and soul will be considered pathological.

A medicine will be found to eliminate the belief in spirit and soul.

A vaccine will be developed to prevent the idea of a soul and spirit from developing.

One movement will focus on developing concepts to meet the reality of soul and spirit.

The other movement will seek a vaccine to make the body 'healthy' by eliminating the concept of soul and spirit.

Materialistic physicians will be asked to drive souls out of humanity.
