Book excerpt: In this fifth installment of Rudolf Steiner's Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts, we are given the grandest possible narrative of the gradual and arduous birth of freedom as the fruit of an immensely long evolutionary process. We learn how our own view this process changes, from "heavenly history" to "mythological history" and finally to "earthly history." We learn how the calculable is slowly wrested from the vast, incalculable cosmos as the initially restricted sphere of human freedom. We learn how the foundations of this possibility were laid in the distant past through the activity of numerous Hierarchies. And finally, we learn how Lucifer and Ahriman seek to distort this process. It is a vision that is breathtaking in its scope and profundity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rudolf Steiner intended the Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts to serve as a renewal of anthroposophy in light of the Christmas Conference, but also as a condensed recapitulation of what he had earlier given in books and cycles of lectures. In this sense he hoped to focus and unify the work of the society. The Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts are perhaps the single most important text in all of anthroposophy. An austere clarity of style is born of brevity.That brevity is greatest in the 185 numbered aphorisms in which he sought to make an even more condensed recapitulation of anthroposophy. This volume contains the complete sequence. Together, they form a powerful occasion for meditation. Readers should be sure to consult the appendix containing the incomplete, but very fine, mediations on the sequence by Carl Unger.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge, to guide the Spiritual in the human being to the Spiritual in the universe.' (From the first 'Leading Thought'.) This key volume contains Rudolf Steiner's so-called 'Leading thoughts' and 'Letters' written for members of the Anthroposophical Society. In brief paragraphs, they succinctly present Rudolf Steiner's science of the spirit, Anthroposophy, as a modern path of knowledge. Invaluable as clear summaries of Rudolf Steiner's fundamental lines of thought, they are intended not as doctrine, but as a stimulus and focus for study and discussion. Their intention, as Rudolf Steiner states, is to contribute to a 'unity and organic wholeness of the work of the Society without there being any question of constraint'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this seventh and final installment of the Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts, Rudolf Steiner begins by asserting that our sensations are actually part of the world, and that with our thinking, we can grow into the world of the stars. Moreover, we are actually organized by our previous incarnations, and intimations of this arise in the soul as the voice of conscience. The scientific worldview of the present is a continuation of medieval Nominalism; it denies real experience of the spirit in ideas. Finally, technology threatens to drag us down into sub-nature. We must develop supra-natural intuitions that raise us as far above nature as technology threatens to drag us beneath it.

Book excerpt: "Leading thoughts" and letters for members of the Anthroposophical Society (CW 26) "The leading thoughts here given are meant to open up subjects for study and discussion. Points of contact with them will be found in countless places in the anthroposophic books and lecture courses, so that the subjects thus opened up can be enlarged upon and the discussions in the groups centered around them." -- Rudolf Steiner This key volume contains Rudolf Steiner's "leading thoughts," or guiding principles, and related letters to members of the Anthroposophical Society. Using brief, aphoristic statements, Steiner succinctly presents his spiritual science as a modern path of knowledge, accompanied by "letters" that expand and contextualize the guiding thought. These 185 thoughts constitute invaluable, clear summaries of Steiner's fundamental ideas--indeed, they contain the whole of Anthroposophy. They are intended not as doctrine, but to stimulate and focus one's study and discussion of spiritual science. "Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge to guide the Spiritual in the human being to the Spiritual in the universe.... Anthroposophy communicates knowledge that is gained in a spiritual way.... There are those who believe that with the limits of knowledge derived from sense perception the limits of all insight are given. Yet if they would carefully observe howthey become conscious of these limits, they would find in the very consciousness of the limits the faculties to transcend them." -- Rudolf Steiner This volume is a translation of Anthroposophische Leitsätze, Der Erkenntnisweg der Anthroposophie--Das Michael-Mysterium (GA 26).

Book excerpt: 5 lectures at The Hague, November 13-18, 1923 (CW 231) What is our relationship to the planets we see in the night sky? Does the cosmos have any affect on our individual lives? Modern science tells us that we are an insignificant accident in a vast, indifferent universe. Rudolf Steiner maintains that we are intimately enmeshed with the whole cosmos, right down to the very structure of our physical bodies. In these talks, Steiner explores our relationship as individuals to the spiritual cosmos--where we will all become cosmonauts one day. The key to being at home in the universe is to comprehend the significance of our individual, physical lives on Earth and what happens when we leave our physical bodies behind. Steiner describes his view of our journey after death and our subsequent return to Earth and a new life. He describes the "planetary" spheres through which we pass and how they affect our future life. He shows us how our character and actions on Earth affects us after we die, and how those experiences in turn shape our next physical life. This is not just more information to add to our already overloaded store of abstract concepts; Steiner gives imaginative exercises that help us explore our suprasensory, spiritual nature. We can begin right now to act more consciously by recognizing the concrete nature of morality and the real consequences of our present lives. The introduction and comprehensive afterword by Paul Mar-gulies explain and contextualize Steiner's text, revealing a message that is more vital and relevant than ever in our frenzied, materialistic times. This book can help us experience more meaning in life and become more at home as spiritual citizens of the universe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We're trying to get to the castle of the Wise Enchanter,' Michael said. 'It's very difficult." "But you have found your way to the Enchanted Islands," said the hermit. "That is the first step, and that is good. I can't tell you which way to go, since I have no idea. You see, very few people have ever reached the castle itself, and no one has been there since I have been here, but I can tell you one thing...if you keep going straight through the forest, it will end. At the end, there are two paths. One path is the Right Way. The other is the Left Way. One of these paths is the true way, and will take you where you need to go; but you can only know which is which once you have gone along the way of your choice for some time." "What if the Right way is the wrong way, or the Left way is the right way?" Lauren asked. "It sounds confusing." "Yes, yes, of course it does. But once you've done it, everything will be perfectly clear." Words are disappearing from the world. Something is lurking in the deepest waters, devouring all the words that are no longer used. No one has noticed, but the world is slowly growing darker. For many years no children have come to the Enchanted Islands in search of Wisdom, and the Wise Enchanter is growing old. Four children from the corners of the earth have been sent on a quest to rediscover each letter, unlock the treasure of language, and thereby grow wise. Time is running out; if the children do not reach the castle of the Wise Enchanter in time, Wisdom and light may vanish from the world altogether.
