史代納博士的農耕哲學理念

做Biodynamic的農夫,除了必讀史代納博士的《農業八講》之外,還會讀博士的其他關於人,天體,甚至哲學的演講,以進一步了解人智學理論。而研習人智學其中一本必讀的基本書是《自由的哲學》。農夫太太近來正在研習這本書,當中看到一個觀點,是哲學但同時也是農夫/人類要自省的:

“He (補充:此處指是Man) demands ever more than the world, of itself, offers him.

Nature has endowed us with needs, but left their satisfaction to our own activity.”

而作為農夫/人類,每一個經驗都是「謎題」,亦會有欲望想去解開,為的是要學懂,使自己的意識與宇宙更連結。

“This feeling makes us strive to bridge over this opposition, and ultimately the whole spiritual striving of mankind is nothing but the bridging of this opposition. The history of our spiritual life is a continuous seeking after union between ourselves and the world.”

所以我們用「生機互動」這個中譯而不用内地的譯名「活力農耕」,因為後者表達不到史代納博士的農耕哲學理念。
