Rudolf Steiner (1861 1925) was born in the small village of Kraljevec, Austro-Hungarian Empire (now in Croatia), where he grew up. As a young man, he lived in Weimar and Berlin, where he became a well-published scientific, literary, and philosophical scholar, known especially for his work with Goethe s scientific writings. At the beginning of the twentieth century, he began to develop his early philosophical principles into an approach to systematic research into psychological and spiritual phenomena. Formally beginning his spiritual teaching career under the auspices of the Theosophical Society, Steiner came to use the term Anthroposophy (and spiritual science) for his philosophy, spiritual research, and findings. The influence of Steiner s multifaceted genius has led to innovative and holistic approaches in medicine, various therapies, philosophy, religious renewal, Waldorf education, education for special needs, threefold economics, biodynamic agriculture, Goethean science, architecture, and the arts of drama, speech, and eurythmy. In 1924, Rudolf Steiner founded the General Anthroposophical Society, which today has branches throughout the world. He died in Dornach, Switzerland.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a deep exploration of the spiritual path to higher knowledge, drawing on the author's own experience and the wisdom of Occult Science. It delves into the four stages of knowledgeââ âmaterial, imaginative, inspirational, and intuitiveââ âand their significance in traversing the inner landscapes of the soul. The book examines the role of sleep in spiritual development, revealing how it allows the soul to work on its own body and forge connections with the higher realms. The author delves into the complexities of the imaginative realm, emphasizing the importance of guidance from a Teacher (Guru) to navigate the illusory reflections of the self that can arise in this stage. The book further explores the distinct approaches to occult training within Oriental, Christian, and Rosicrucian traditions. It posits that the Rosicrucian method offers a path to higher knowledge that is compatible with both Christianity and the scientific understanding of the world, fostering freedom while nurturing the soul. Ultimately, this book provides a comprehensive and insightful guide for those seeking to embark on the journey of spiritual awakening and achieve a deeper connection with the divine.
