Ever since nature and consciousness were separated in the late Middle Ages, giving rise to a science of matter alone -- in which mind was considered only an epiphenomenon of neural chemistry -- the spiritual beings who are the universe have felt abandoned and unable to complete their work, which depends on human collaboration for its success. Meanwhile, human beings have likewise felt abandoned and alienated, condemned to spend eternity as a speck of dust in an infinitely decaying universe.

Produktbeschreibung
Ever since nature and consciousness were separated in the late Middle Ages, giving rise to a science of matter alone -- in which mind was considered only an epiphenomenon of neural chemistry -- the spiritual beings who are the universe have felt abandoned and unable to complete their work, which depends on human collaboration for its success. Meanwhile, human beings have likewise felt abandoned and alienated, condemned to spend eternity as a speck of dust in an infinitely decaying universe. In these remarkable lectures, Rudolf Steiner reestablishes the human being as a participant in an evolving, dynamic universe of living spiritual beings: a living universe, whole and divine. He does so in concrete images, capable of being grasped by human consciousness as if from within.

Autorenporträt
Rudolf Steiner (b. Rudolf Joseph Lorenz 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. Steiner termed his spiritual philosophy anthroposophy, meaning "wisdom of the human being." As an exceptionally developed seer, he based his work on direct knowledge and perception of spiritual dimensions. He initiated a modern, universal "spiritual science" that is accessible to anyone willing to exercise clear and unbiased thinking. From his spiritual investigations, Steiner provided suggestions for the renewal of numerous activities, including education (general and for special needs), agriculture, medicine, economics, architecture, science, philosophy, Christianity, and the arts. There are currently thousands of schools, clinics, farms, and initiatives in other fields that involve practical work based on the principles Steiner developed. His many published works feature his research into the spiritual nature of human beings, the evolution of the world and humanity, and methods for personal development. He wrote some thirty books and delivered more than six thousand lectures throughout much of Europe. In 1924, Steiner founded the General Anthroposophical Society, which today has branches around the world.
