Arranged in brief sections of approx. two pages and comprising LXI, or 61, brief "leading thoughts." Each with stylized symbolical first letter of each opening word. From opening: "Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge, to guide the Spiritual in the human being to the Spiritual in the universe. It arises in man as a need of the heart, of the life of feeling; and it can only be justified inasmuch as it can satisfy this inner need. He alone can acknowledge Anthroposophy, who finds in it what he himself in his own inner life feels impelled to seek. Hence only they can be anthroposophists who feel certain questions on the nature of man and the universe as an elemental need of life, just as one feels hunger and thirst." Printed in Great Britain by Unwin Brothers, Limited, London and Woking. 124 pages. Insured post. Size: 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.…
