On April 25, 1990, the Kelowna Parzival Group celebrated its inauguration as an official Members\u2019 Group of the Anthroposophical Society in Canada. <\/span><\/p><p class=\"Body\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">For many years, members were gathering in the homes of members. In 2002, we started to meet in the faculty room of the Kelowna Waldorf School (now Lakeside School). With the exception of July and August, the group meets every Monday night from 7:15 PM to 9:00 PM. <\/span><\/p><p class=\"Body\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">We always start the evening by reading the verse of the week from Rudolf Steiner\u2019s <i>The Calendar of the Soul<\/i> in English and German. The reading is followed by a few minutes of silence, after which we share our thoughts on the mood of the verse as it reflects the inner life of the soul in relation to the outer life of nature. Since we use a version of the Calendar that contains seven different English translations, we often reflect on the different renderings and the translators\u2019 attempts to mirror different aspects of the German original. This conversation sets the mood for the evening and is followed by our study of the chosen book or lecture. <\/span><\/p><p class=\"Body\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">From 2015 to 2019, the group was studying Rudolf Steiner\u2019s <i>Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts<\/i> in connection with Carl Unger\u2019s <i>The Language of the Consciousness Soul<\/i>. Our present study is Georg Kuehlewind\u2019s <i>Working with<\/i><i>Anthroposophy<\/i>, which will be followed by a book of selected lectures and writings by Rudolf Steiner, <i>The Archangel Michael\u2014His Mission<\/i> <i>and Ours<\/i>.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"Body\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Questions and conversations are the lifeblood of our study. Exploring the texts together, step by step and from different angles, gives us the experience of a co-creative effort in arriving at a level of understanding that we could not accomplish on our own. And what is more, this united quest for cognition helps us to get to know each other.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"Body\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Since 2003, members of the General Anthroposophical Section of the School of Spiritual Science, living in Kelowna, Westbank, Lumby and Nelson, meet in Kelowna (usually on 5 weekends per year) to attend Class lessons and participate in Class conversations. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-318647e elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"318647e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-74e2f11a elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-stretched elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default parallax_section_no qode_elementor_container_no\" data-id=\"74e2f11a\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;stretch_section&quot;:&quot;section-stretched&quot;,&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;,&quot;shape_divider_top&quot;:&quot;mountains&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shape elementor-shape-top\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-negative=\"false\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 1000 100\" preserveAspectRatio=\"none\">\n\t<path class=\"elementor-shape-fill\" opacity=\"0.33\" d=\"M473,67.3c-203.9,88.3-263.1-34-320.3,0C66,119.1,0,59.7,0,59.7V0h1000v59.7 c0,0-62.1,26.1-94.9,29.3c-32.8,3.3-62.8-12.3-75.8-22.1C806,49.6,745.3,8.7,694.9,4.7S492.4,59,473,67.3z\"\/>\n\t<path class=\"elementor-shape-fill\" opacity=\"0.66\" d=\"M734,67.3c-45.5,0-77.2-23.2-129.1-39.1c-28.6-8.7-150.3-10.1-254,39.1 s-91.7-34.4-149.2,0C115.7,118.3,0,39.8,0,39.8V0h1000v36.5c0,0-28.2-18.5-92.1-18.5C810.2,18.1,775.7,67.3,734,67.3z\"\/>\n\t<path class=\"elementor-shape-fill\" d=\"M766.1,28.9c-200-57.5-266,65.5-395.1,19.5C242,1.8,242,5.4,184.8,20.6C128,35.8,132.3,44.9,89.9,52.5C28.6,63.7,0,0,0,0 h1000c0,0-9.9,40.9-83.6,48.1S829.6,47,766.1,28.9z\"\/>\n<\/svg>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-26000156\" data-id=\"26000156\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-64eb7e9 elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"64eb7e9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why Do You Become A Member?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-52a832cf animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-bridge_testimonials_carousel\" data-id=\"52a832cf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"bridge_testimonials_carousel.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class='testimonials_c_holder clearfix '><div class=\"testimonials_c testimonials_c_carousel\" data-show-navigation=\"yes\" data-animation-speed=\"5000\" data-auto-rotate-slides=\"15\" data-number-per-slide=\"3\"><ul class=\"slides\"><li id=\"testimonials-c-15225\" class=\"testimonial_content\"><div class=\"testimonial_content_inner\"><div class=\"testimonial_text_holder\"><div class=\"testimonial_text_inner\" style=\"\"><p>\"J'ai d\u00e9couvert l'anthroposophie il y a 42 ans \u00e0 Kelowna, en Colombie-Britannique.
