New larynx is emerging for new consciousness to communicate through the syntax of poetry, through the kinesthetics of sacred geometry, making cosmic truth visible, making the music of the spheres perceptible.

“Noetic is poetic,” sang Michael Reddy and Robert Schwarz at one of the conferences of the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS). Yes, I still believe in poetry and geometry.

Can we prove the existence of consciousness? The fine scientists at the Institute of Noetic Sciences continue to dare asking new questions from different perspectives and wider angles, breaking old dogmas and paradigms.

Can we explain how we connect? By cognitive engagement? Well, we are thinking creatures. Yet, we have barely begun moving away from the old reptilian brain of fight or flight towards the frontal lobe. This uniquely human part of the brain allows for higher level cognition that embraces creative activities and global community awareness, leading to deeds of compassion and cooperation among people.

In Smart Moves: Why Learning Is Not All in Your Head, Dr. Carla Hannaford brilliantly summarizes the neurological scientific research. Science shows that we need touch to develop, we need to move to learn, to grow into our genuine human potential. Cerebral activity of narrow thinking and lifeless speech is a dead end, leading to nowhere but death of self, body, nature, Earth.

“Earth is alive. We now have photographs of galaxies, yet, ancient cultures have known about them for ages,” echoes the voice of Drew Dillinger, one of the speakers at the IONS conference I attended several years ago. And we have probably all heard or read that a flutter of a butterfly can change the weather pattern on the other end of the world.

Rudolf Steiner writes that in the harmonious movement art of eurythmy, the body becomes the larynx, an instrument of higher consciousness. Yes, the larynx with a butterfly shape, a eurythmist with angelic wings. I speak with my silk clad limbs; I sing through the waves of my eurythmy veils. I am conscious as I connect with others through my movement. You and I, we move along, towards, through, past each other. Not just “dancing with” as in folk dance, or “dancing at” as in ballet, but consciously cultivating the aliveness among ourselves. Time and space are crafted into a magical opening where we can all glimpse our own true dreams, the dreams that we were born with, the path of humaneness that awaits our discovery.

Thus speaks the cosmic Word

that I, by grace through senses’ portals,

have led into my innermost soul:

Imbue your spirit depths

with my wide world horizons

to find in future time myself in you.

~ Weekly Verse 17 by Rudolf Steiner from The Calendar of the Soul
(trans. Ruth & Hans Pusch)

My finer senses glimpse

the whisper of the Cosmic Word;

deep in my Soul, I hear:

Permeate yourself with

the riches of the Spirit worlds

and cultivate my seeds in you.

~ Soulful Spark 17 by Marta Stemberger
