Steiner was also strongly influenced by Goethe's phenomenological approach to science.

From a philosophical point of view, Torres García was strongly influenced by the Theosophy of Helena Blavatsky and the Anthroposophy of Rudolf Steiner, as were other artists of the day, such as Piet Mondrian, Paul Klee, and Vasili Kandinski.

Steiner contrasted the anthroposophical approach with both conventional mysticism, which he considered lacking the clarity necessary for exact knowledge, and natural science, which he considered arbitrarily limited to investigating the outer world.

Steiner is considered one of the founders of the modern organic farming movement.

Steiner emphasized that he considered this movement, and his role in creating it, to be independent of his anthroposophical work, as he wished anthroposophy to be independent of any particular religion or religious denomination.

Spiritual training is to support what Steiner considered the overall purpose of human evolution, the development of the mutually interdependent qualities of love and freedom.

Steiner regarded the " observations " of spiritual research as more dependable ( and above all, consistent ) than observations of physical reality yet considered spiritual research as fallible

Under the Kurgan hypothesis, there are two possibilities for how the early Anatolian speakers could have reached Anatolia: from the north via the Caucasus, and from the west, via the Balkans, the latter of which is considered somewhat more likely by Mallory ( 1989 ) and Steiner ( 1990 ).

The heyday of synthetic geometry can be considered to have been the 19th century, when analytic methods based on coordinates and calculus were ignored by some geometers such as Jakob Steiner, in favour of a purely synthetic development of projective geometry.

Along with such composers as Max Steiner and Alfred Newman, he is considered one of the founders of film music.

Along with composers Max Steiner and Dimitri Tiomkin, Newman is considered one of the " three godfathers of film music ," and played a major part in creating the tradition of composing original music for films.

Steiner considered the etheric reality or life principle as quite distinct from the physical material reality, being intermediate between the physical world and the astral or soul world.

Steiner hoped to form a spiritual movement that would free the individual from any external authority: " The most important problem of all human thinking is this: to comprehend the human being as a personality grounded in him or herself.

To describe this being, Steiner periodically used terms such as the " Representative of Humanity " or the " good spirit " rather than any denominational term.

In 1882, one of Steiner's teachers, Karl Julius Schröer, suggested Steiner's name to Joseph Kürschner, chief editor of an important new edition of Goethe's works, who asked Steiner to become the edition's natural science editor, a truly astonishing opportunity for a young student without any form of academic credentials or previous publications.

Steiner articulated three stages of any creative deed:

In 1899 Steiner experienced what he described as a life-transforming inner encounter with the being of Christ ; previously he had little or no relation to Christianity in any form.

As of 2012, an outstanding problem in design theory is if any nontrivial (< math > t < k < n </ math >) Steiner systems have t ≥ 6.

Steiner begins with some geometric constructions which are easily understood ; for example, it can be shown that any closed curve enclosing a region that is not fully convex can be modified to enclose more area, by " flipping " the concave areas so that they become convex.

The original problem was stated in the form that has become known as the Euclidean Steiner tree problem or geometric Steiner tree problem: Given N points in the plane, the goal is to connect them by lines of minimum total length in such a way that any two points may be interconnected by line segments either directly or via other points and line segments.

This body of Teachings, Western Wisdom Teachings, was further developed in Heindel's subsequent investigations and works and it is not available in Steiner or any other source as it contains material and specific clairvoyant accounts " not be found elsewhere in any occult sources "; thus, it is concluded through the available sources that " The similarities are due to a common source to both men ( Rosicrucian influences and teachers )".

The power of a point theorem, due to Jakob Steiner, states that for any line through A intersecting C in points P and Q, the power of the point with respect to the circle is given up to a sign by the product

By 1907, a split between Steiner and the mainstream Theosophical Society had begun to become apparent.

In 1923, faced with differences between older members focusing on inner development and younger members eager to become active in the social transformations of the time, Steiner refounded the Society in an inclusive manner and established a School for Spiritual Science.

Towards the end of Steiner's life, a group of theology students ( primarily Lutheran, with some Roman Catholic members ) approached Steiner for help in reviving Christianity, in particular " to bridge the widening gulf between modern science and the world of spirit.

In the first, more philosophically oriented phase, Steiner attempted to find a synthesis between science and mysticism ; his philosophical work of these years, which he termed spiritual science, sought to provide a connection between the cognitive path of Western philosophy and the inner and spiritual needs of the human being.

Steiner entered the village school ; following a disagreement between his father and the schoolmaster, he was briefly educated at home.

At 21, on the train between his home village and Vienna, Steiner met a herb gatherer, Felix Kogutzki, who spoke about the spiritual world " as one who had his own experience therein ...".

As a playwright, Steiner wrote four " Mystery Dramas " between 1909 and 1913, including The Portal of Initiation and The Soul's Awakening.

In his commentaries on Goethe's scientific works, written between 1884 and 1897, Steiner presented Goethe's approach to science as essentially phenomenological in nature, rather than theory-or model-based.

Here Steiner suggests that there is an inconsistency between Kant's philosophy, which posits that knowledge is representation and that the essential verity of the world is inaccessible to human consciousness, and modern science, which assumes that all influences can be found in what Steiner termed the “ sinnlichen und geistlichen ” ( sensory and mental / spiritual ) world to which we have access.

Steiner thus explicitly denies all justification to a division between faith and knowledge ; otherwise expressed, between the spiritual and natural worlds.

To be " Christian " is, for Steiner, a search for balance between polarizing extremes and the ability to manifest love in freedom.

Steiner tree for three points A, B, and C ( note there are no direct connections between A, B, C ).
