Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Returning from travels in war-torn Europe, Rudolf Steiner gives a stark impression of the disastrous conditions of the time, encouraging deeper esoteric work as a counter to the world situation. Speaking under the broad theme of human development in the light of Anthroposophy, he analyzes the gulf between contemporary culture and science--which he says are characterized by narrow-mindedness, ignorance and ineptitude--and a scientific approach to the spirit. Steiner is clear about the shortcomings of his followers, mentioning past failures and a continuing tendency toward sectarianism and dogmatic judgments. Steiner also discusses how we experience a state of separation from the world through our physical form, whereas our aura, or soul, spiritual being--is already living actively in cosmic surroundings.

Neuware - 9 lectures, Dornach, August 17-September 2, 1918 (CW 183)'Anyone who takes hold of what we call Spiritual Science, not with purely abstract thoughts but with one's whole being, will see that this Spiritual Science goes right into the dexterity of the hands, that it makes a person more capable and enables one to extend one's interest over wider areas and the will over a wider world.' -- Rudolf SteinerReturning from travels in war-torn Europe, Rudolf Steiner gives a stark impression of the disastrous conditions of the time, encouraging deeper esoteric work as a counter to the world situation.

The wealth of spiritual thoughts and knowledge presented in these lectures remain as relevant today as they were when they were first delivered.This volume is a translation from German of Die Wissenschaft vom Werden des Menschen (GA 183).…
