Manage episode 219326817 series 2383426
Rudolf Steiner, who lived from 1861 to 1925, is remembered and revered as a prophet of renewal, asking and answering the question how do we create systems, protocols, and procedures that works alongside what nature provides humans? How do we be a part of the progress of the natural world in healthy, sustainable, and spiritual ways?
One of the answers to those questions was the creation of biodynamic farming.
I’ve learned all of this since visiting the Benziger Family Winery; a beautiful family farm in the Sonoma Valley.
The Benziger family winery website describes biodynamic farming as "when you eliminate all the artificial crutches, you learn to trust your instincts and to trust nature’s ability and capacity to make a great wine."
How might that apply to humans?
When you eliminate all the artificial crutches, you learn to trust your instincts and to trust nature’s ability and capacity to make a great human being.
But losing the artificial crutches is not without risk. It's almost guaranteed you'll fall and what you learn when you get up from that fall is called integrity.
When you have integrity you have an internal structure so there is no need for something artificial to prop you up. No crutches.
Grab a glass a wine and join me in this podcast as I dig into the backstory of the founder of Waldorf schools and biodynamic farming, tell the experience of losing the crutches I had depended upon in my marriage, and propose that integrity is a much richer and earthier idea than moral excellence.
In-depth shownotes, video, and other resources at Brad Toews.
