Not I, but Christ in me

 

"In the beholding of God we do not fall;

in the beholding of ourselves we may not stand."

                          — Julian of Norwich

Rudolf Steiner:  "All that is predestined to perish must sacrifice itself. Man who still has an affinity with his animal nature, the centaur Chiron, has to sacrifice himself. The man of previous epochs must be sacrificed."
