Hugo Erbe’s New Biodynamic Preparations, Hugo Erbe – BACK IN PRINT

Hugo Erbe, a student of Dr Steiner’s, collected ideas from Dr. Steiner’s numerous lectures and publications and used his own developing faculties of perception and comprehension to become innovative and creative. One of the results are the 21 preparations presented here. These supplement those presented by Dr Steiner. Their creation and application are described in Erbe’s own words. Erbe said of his work, “It may appear, at first sight, presumptuous to wish to add anything to what Rudolf Steiner gave from his comprehensive spiritual insight. However, Steiner never left any doubt that he did not wish his indications to become hardened dogmas, but that they should rather be seen as laying the foundations for a new type of agriculture and as being open to further development and to modification according to circumstances. We may reasonably presume that he expected his pupils to develop their own personal activity out of the needs of each new situation.”
