A Vision

"In the Waldorf pedagogy, spirituality is done as a broader question, which has to do with recognizing ourselves as part of the whole, with recognizing ourselves as part of everything. There are no instructions for teaching the spiritual. I am not talking about reading the Bible to them, but instead being amazed at being alive, at having a body, being amazed at my surroundings, observing nature, and feeling part of that. Beauty has to do with the spiritual. Being amazed by beauty is something of the spirit. In the second seven-year period, from 7 to 14, the world should be beautiful because at that age, you only learn about what seems beautiful, about things that amaze us."
