Occident Publishers

Occident Publishers was founded in 1994 in The Hague, to publish the writings of Mieke Mosmuller. The theme is the spiritualizing of thinking.

The theme is the spiritualizing of thinking, through the active forming of concepts. Man has the freedom to give direction to the course of his thoughts and with that as well, to the course of his own actions. By bringing willpower into thinking, man becomes able to live creatively and finds the way to spiritual insight. The shape that life then takes lies completely beyond necessity.

Today marks 100 years since Rudolf Steiner passed away, and there will likely be many events and commemorative activities. I want to contribute to this, but I would like to preface it with something.
About 20 years ago, maybe a little less, I watched a film about Rudolf Steiner—it was a DVD. In this film, there was likely an effort to make Rudolf Steiner more widely known. And in it, there was an image that deeply moved me: a bookshelf with a portrait of Rudolf Steiner inside it.
Yes, of course, that is something very ordinary, and one cannot expect him to appear himself, as he had already been dead for a long time. But there it was—his photo. And that made a profound impression on me. I suddenly felt: this is not right at all, because here, Rudolf Steiner is being remembered, but he is actually being treated as if he is dead. He passed away back then, and yes, we no longer have him. And of course, as anthroposophists, we know that he continues to live. But this photo showed something else. Rudolf Steiner is dead. He is no more.

Vandaag is het 100 jaar geleden dat Rudolf Steiner is overleden, en er zullen waarschijnlijk veel evenementen en herdenkingsactiviteiten zijn. Ik wil mijn bi...

Imagine humanity in a distant future. How would human society look like? How would human beings think? And above all, what would the human form be?

‘... transhumanists are not prepared to delve into the meaning and significance of the physical body itself. They simply want to get rid of it, having distilled from it what is most important to them: an algorithm based on computer science, which also contains certain creativity, as we know it in gaming. You have to be content with that creativity, further developed, of course. You then have to be happy with the unprecedented computing capacity as a basis for intelligence. Those future machine people, who will be something completely different from robots, will then take the place of biological humans.’

In the form of lectures and conversations, this book shows this ‘other half’ of trans- and posthumanism. It is a spiritual vision of the future, not science fiction.

I took away a deep impression with me while leaving his room. We had talked for about an hour, and my mind was full of sorrow. Compassion, but at the same time there was an enormous antipathy for so much cold hardness. With the loss of fat and muscles the last bit of goodness and warmth seemed to be being dissolved. A complete breakdown he seemed to be, hatred and freezing coldness all over. Hard sneering, irony. The small, small light of goodness that had been there, once, seemed to have vanished totally. He himself felt it as a blazing fire in which he was being consumed. But I only perceived freezing coldness...

I looked back at my life and to the meetings with him. I experienced the enormous power of that man, negative power, lack of will to tolerate the positive sides of other people. A destructiveness, yet with an old initiation as its foundation, but then as a kind of

Alzheimer. Our brain functions as a mirror. It reflects all our mind-operations and brings them to consciousness in this way. When the mirror decays, the reflections become vague and difficult to perceive, although they are still there...

It is said that 70% of all dementia cases are 'Alzheimers'. This form of dementia is thought to be an illness based on changes in the nervous system of the brain. These changes are manifest, but the scientists are not sure about the truth of their suppositions.

The spirit of ageing - New blog-post by Mieke Mosmuller

If we look at the human being as a living being and we look at him as if this being has nothing to do with ourselves, we would see a rather complicated physical organism that seems to be at the top of the evolution of nature. In youth it

The primal Question and the primal Answer - New blog-post by Mieke Mosmuller

'We have found the first question, the question with which philosophy begins. The answer to that question we have not found in abstract thinking, not dubious anymore, but as an inevitable fact, founded on experience in internal, supra-subjective and supra-objective thinking. This has given philosop

Why should we develop a pure and independent thinking? - New blog-post by Mieke Mosmuller

We don't think the thoughts of Aristotle only because we need the contents. We think along with his thoughts because we learn to know a certain thinking skill that comes from the old Greek period, but that still isn't a skill that human beings have developed in general. Why
