New Age 2026 (Part VIII): The Incarnation of Ahriman

In this episode of the New Age 2026 series, we examine the themes of this series, including information technology, materialism and the UFO phenomenon, in light of the ideas of the Austrian mystic and philosopher Rudolf Steiner. Steiner held two beings to be responsible for evil in the world, Lucifer, the bearer of false light, and Ahriman, the embodiment of materialism. He claimed Lucifer had already incarnated on Earth in the third millennium BC, but that Ahriman's human incarnation was still to come. Whether we take Steiner literally or not, his ideas are interesting to consider in light of the great materialism of the current times.
