Life 

Gerhard Wehr initially trained to become a deacon . He became known as an editor and author of non-fiction books on depth psychology (especially analytical psychology ) and esoteric topics with a focus on Christian mysticism , as well as as the author of numerous biographies - especially on Jakob Böhme , Martin Buber , CG Jung and Rudolf Steiner .


His professional career began in church social work and adult education. From 1971 to 1990 he had a teaching position at the deacon school in Rummelsberg . [1] He then lived as a freelance writer in neighboring Schwarzenbruck. He was a member of numerous professional societies; For his theological and journalistic work he was appointed “Honorary Doctor of Theology” ( Dr. theol. hc) by the Augustana University of Neuendettelsau .


One of the main concerns of his work was mediating between different disciplines, denominations and worldviews. This effort was also expressed in the fact that Wehr published his works in anthroposophically oriented publishers such as Novalis , Urachhaus or Pforte , as well as the in-house publisher of the German College for Transpersonal Psychology , Via Nova . On the other hand, he maintained contact with the traditional Christian denominations. His books were published by Evangelical Lutheran-oriented publishers such as Claudius and by the Roman Catholic publisher Herderpublished. He also contributed articles to the ecumenically oriented left-wing Catholic magazine Publik-Forum and to the Swedenborgians ' in-house magazine in Germany, Offene Tore .

Gerhard Wehr (* 26. September 1931 in Schweinfurt; † 22. April 2015 in Schwarzenbruck) war ein deutscher evangelischer Theologe und Sachbuchautor.

Leben[Bearbeiten | Quelltext bearbeiten]

Gerhard Wehr ließ sich zunächst zum Diakon ausbilden. Er wurde als Herausgeber und Autor von Sachbüchern zur Tiefenpsychologie (speziell die analytische Psychologie) und esoterischen Themen mit dem Schwerpunkt christliche Mystik sowie als Verfasser zahlreicher Biografien – insbesondere über Jakob BöhmeMartin BuberC.G. Jung und Rudolf Steiner – bekannt.

Sein beruflicher Werdegang begann in der kirchlichen Sozialarbeit und Erwachsenenbildung. Von 1971 bis 1990 hatte er einen Lehrauftrag an der Diakonenschule in Rummelsberg.[1] Danach lebte er als freier Schriftsteller im benachbarten Schwarzenbruck. Er war Mitglied zahlreicher Fachgesellschaften; für sein theologisch-publizistisches Schaffen wurde er von der Augustana-Hochschule Neuendettelsau zum „Doktor der Theologie ehrenhalber“ (Dr. theol. h. c.) ernannt.

Ein Hauptanliegen seiner Tätigkeit war die Vermittlung zwischen den verschiedenen Disziplinen, Konfessionen und Weltanschauungsrichtungen. Dieses Bemühen fand seinen Ausdruck auch darin, dass Wehr seine Werke zum einen sowohl in anthroposophisch ausgerichteten Verlagen wie NovalisUrachhaus oder Pforte, als auch dem Hausverlag des Deutschen Kollegiums für transpersonale PsychologieVia Nova, veröffentlichte. Zum anderen wahrte er den Kontakt zu den tradierten christlichen Konfessionen. Seine Bücher wurden von evangelisch-lutherisch orientierten Verlagen wie Claudius und vom römisch-katholisch begründeten Verlag Herder herausgegeben. Auch für die ökumenisch ausgerichtete linkskatholische Zeitschrift Publik-Forum sowie für die Hauszeitschrift der Swedenborgianer in Deutschland, Offene Tore, hat er Artikel beigesteuert.

책 소개

크리슈나무르티에서 융까지, 진리를 찾아 나선 대표사상가 11인의 초상

『영혼의 스승들』. 이성을 중시하는 합리주의와 유물론적 과학이 팽배하던 19세기 말, 기존 철학에 반기를 들고 동양철학의 정신적인 면을 통합한 새로운 세계관을 추구하는 독자적인 운동이 시작된다. 이 시대에 활동했던 11명의 대표 사상가들을 통해 인종과 국적, 종교적 신념을 넘어선 그들의 세계로 들어가 본다.

저자는 루돌프 슈타이너부터 크리스나무르티를 넘어 융과 구르지예프에 이르기까지의 서양영성대가들의 초상화를 이 책을 통해 그려낸다. 합리주의와 유물론에 대한 대안으로 세계와 세계의 현상들에 대한 영성적이고 전체적인 접근이 어떻게 발전해왔는지를 보여준다. 19세기와 20세기 서양의 영성대가들을 소개한 역사서라 할 수 있다.

In 1950, Krishnamurti said: "If we are concerned with our own lives, if we understand our relationship with others, we will have created a new society; otherwise, we will but perpetuate the present chaotic mess and confusion."

Providing a far-reaching basis for solving many of the world's crises, On Relationship brings together Krishnamurti's most essential teachings on the individual's relationship to other people and institutions. The renowned teacher makes clear that the way we handle personal crises and relationships links us to the problems of all people and has a larger, global meaning. Ending the causes of war, for instance, cannot truly begin until we perform simple, but often ignored, tasks such as reconciling with estranged family members, keeping our homes in order, and respecting others.

J. Krishnamurti



Krishnamurti is regarded globally as one of the greatest thinkers and religious teachers of all time. He did not expound any philosophy or religion, but rather talked of the things that concern all of us in our everyday lives, of the problems of living in modern society with its violence and corruption, of the individual's search for security and happiness, and the need for mankind to free itself from inner burdens of fear, anger, hurt, and sorrow. He explained with great precision the subtle workings of the human mind, and pointed to the need for bringing to our daily life a deeply meditative and spiritual quality.

Krishnamurti belonged to no religious organization, sect or country, nor did he subscribe to any school of political or ideological thought. On the contrary, he maintained that these are the very factors that divide human beings and bring about conflict and war. He reminded his listeners again and again that we are all human beings first and not Hindus, Muslims or Christians, that we are like the rest of humanity and are not different from one another. He asked that we tread lightly on this earth without destroying ourselves or the environment. He communicated to his listeners a deep sense of respect for nature. His teachings transcend man-made belief systems, nationalistic sentiment and sectarianism. At the same time, they give new meaning and direction to mankind's search for truth. His teaching, besides being relevant to the modern age, is timeless and universal.

Krishnamurti spoke not as a guru but as a friend, and his talks and discussions are based not on tradition-based knowledge but on his own insights into the human mind and his vision of the sacred, so he always communicates a sense of freshness and directness although the essence of his message remained unchanged over the years. When he addressed large audiences, people felt that Krishnamurti was talking to each of them personally, addressing his or her particular problem. In his private interviews, he was a compassionate teacher, listening attentively to the man or woman who came to him in sorrow, and encouraging them to heal themselves through their own understanding. Religious scholars found that his words threw new light on traditional concepts. Krishnamurti took on the challenge of modern scientists and psychologists and went with them step by step, discussed their theories and sometimes enabled them to discern the limitations of those theories. Krishnamurti left a large body of literature in the form of public talks, writings, discussions with teachers and students, with scientists and religious figures, conversations with individuals, television and radio interviews, and letters. Many of these have been published as books, and audio and video recordings.

More information about Krishnamurti’s life can be found in the biographies written by Mary Lutyens and Pupul Jayakar.

If we change our consciousness, we can change the world ... & so much more. I am so impressed that I've purchased several copies as gifts for close friends. It comes from within & not from with-out. All I can say is read, study, learn, explore, question, & become a new person without image ... if we can.

Condensé de différents extraits de livres sur les relations. Comme toujours Krishnamurti très clair, très dense et éclairant pour les relations que nous avons avec le monde et les proches. En anglais , cela garde la saveur de l’énergie de Krishnamurti et par petits extraits cela est facile à lire et intégrer. Son enseignement ressemble aussi à celui de la sagesse éternelle que j'ai apprécié.

totally amazing, life changing book. if you struggle with mindfulness in the heart of emotional upset, this book is for you.
If you'd like to break old patterns of negative thinking and self-sabotage, this book is for you.
If you'd like to stop living up to the status quo and start manifesting your inner vision, this book is for you.
If you are a human being with a chatty mind, this book is for you.

very simple, clear, life-changing meditation techniques that help you reach a whole new understanding of who you are and what it is to be alive. Spoiler Alert: it's about being pure awareness, minus all the muck & mess of ego & collective consciousness.

My only complaint is, I bought the paperback book for $12 a few weeks ago. Just logged in to buy several copies, as gifts for friends/clients, and all of a sudden the cheapest one is $64? Why price a book that everyone should read so high that few will buy it? I hope the vendors re-think their pricing, to make it more accessible to everyone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow, simply wow!Reviewed in the United States on December 18, 2013

I had never heard of Tom Stone before I read this book, and I absolutely wish I had a time machine so I could give this book to myself the second I came out of the womb. It is a staggaringly straight forward approach to what most people call Enlightenment, a better term for which would be Integrated Human Adulthood.

This is not a theoretical book on spirituality. It is practical to the core. Tom leads his readers through a series of exercises designed to get, as fast as possible, into the state of direct experience of the self. Further, he shows the reader how to resolve all the trauma that is perpetually making our lives miserable.

I have read hundreds of books in the Enlightenment/Spiritual/Self-help/Theology genre. This is one of my top 3 favorites. Why, because I followed the steps and it is working!!!

Tom Stone is very authentic and is able to show you your authenctic self without difficulty.
I have never met anyone who could indicate the real nature of man that easely.
Moreover the core-technique he discribes gives you the oppertunity to free yourself of the burden of nasty emotions that kept you in captivity.
I recomment this book and the excersises to everybody!
