In this instance, a sequence of fifteen images of the Madonna, intended originally for contemplation under supervision in a clinical setting as a new form of therapy for those suffering soul wounds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn a 1908 lecture, Steiner addressed the subterranean spiritual links connecting ancient Egypt and our own time and described certain healing functions of the Isis Mysteries. He connected the Madonna Mary, in a sense, as the evolutionary metamorphosis of Isis, focusing on Raphael's visionary image of her in the \u003ci\u003eSistine Madonna.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sequence consists of fifteen images (predominantly by Raphael) and a sculpture. The first half begins and ends with the Sistine Madonna, which frames it. The second half is similarly framed, but by two details from \u003ci\u003eThe Transfiguration.\u003c\/i\u003e One first establishes a meditative soul mood and then slowly contemplates the sequence of images.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAmong the numerous topics discussed are divine feminine Wisdom, the Holy Mother, the origin of the Madonna sequence, the etheric body and the sequence, and Rudolf Steiner's healing mission.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Lindisfarne Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/16\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781584209898\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.80lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 5.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Christopher Bamford","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43067699232949,"sku":"9781584209898","price":15.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_1f72659f-38ff-4ce8-8a74-2dec6e4495ea.jpg?v=1690863392","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/healing-madonnas-exploring-the-sequence-of-madonna-images-created-by-rudolf-steiner-and-felix-peipers-for-use-in-therapy-and-meditation-9781584209898","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
