Description
Much complementary and additional matter has been inserted in this edition in the part dealing with "Perception of the Higher Worlds." The endeavour has been made to represent in a graphic way the kind of inner soul-processes by which the power of cognition liberates itself from the limits which confine it in the world of sense and thereby becomes qualified for experiencing the supersensible world. The attempt has been made to show that these experiences,...

Intuitive Thinking as a Spiritual Path is Rudolf Steiner's most important work. In it, he explains the two aspects of free will: freedom of thought and freedom of action. This landmark book explores free will from a completely fresh and unique perspective.
If an idea is to become action, man must first want it, before it can happen. Such an act of will therefore has its grounds only in man himself. Man is then the ultimate determinant of his action....

The Way of Initiation is a theosophy book by Rudolf Steiner, an Austrian philosopher and clairvoyant. In this treatise no advice is given and no statement made which is not based on the personal experience of the author, who is, in the truest sense, both a mystic and an occultist, and his two natures are fused together.

It is only of recent times that the truths of occultism have been the subject of public lectures. Formerly, these truths were only revealed in secret societies, to those who had passed through certain degrees of initiation and had sworn to obey the laws of the Order through the whole of their life. Today, man is entering upon a very critical period. Occult truths are beginning to be disclosed to the public. In a matter of twenty years or so, a certain...

This volume contains a collection of short essays by Steiner for the members of the Anthroposophical Society. They were written near the end of Steiner's life and in a way summarize, in highly concentrated form, the whole of Anthroposophy. Each essay ends with a short summary of its contents and these are known, in this translation, as the "guidelines." The guidelines are mantras and can be used quite fruitfully for meditation.

During the re-founding of the Anthroposophical Society at Christmas 1923, Rudolf Steiner also reconstituted the "Esoteric School" which had originally functioned in Germany from 1904 until 1914, when the outset of the First World War made its continuance impossible.
However, the original school was only for a relatively few selected individuals, whereas the new school was incorporated into the Free School for Spiritual Science at the Goetheanum in...

In 1920, Rudolf Steiner had already foreseen that the future imperialism would be economic rather than military or nationalistic. In these three lectures, he describes the history of imperialism from ancient times to the present and into the future. The Anglo-American would play an increasingly important role in future developments, so the English visitors, who attended must have been especially attentive.
