With Rev. Bastiaan Baan

Saturday, March 17th 10:00am - 9:00pm at Ecoheal and Sunday March 18th 12:45 Lecture at Emerson Waldorf School Brown Wing

“... In herb, stone, sea and light’s pure glance shineth His childlike countenance.”

Usually we just hear these words of Novalis as a poetic expression. However, for Novalis and a few others who are able to see behind the veil of the physical world, one can recognize the hidden presence of Christ in nature. In this conference, we will try – in several lectures, in singing, and in a workshop where we observe plants – to uncover the veil.
