THIS YEAR’S Anthroposophical Society conference, Being in Reality, aims to awaken, challenge and resolve ideas in a way that will, hopefully, reverberate into the future. Harnessing a strong social impulse and a clear-eyed enquiry, the conference probes the question: How can we engage our will and work consciously to meet the demands of earthly life? The human being as an individual and as a social being has the capacity to respond to the needs of our time, engendering trust and hope for the future. Being in reality is to truly perceive, to know what is being asked of us in any moment and to act appropriately. Being in reality is about finding and fashioning a way forward.
