THE SUPER PHYSICAL WORLD AND ITS GNOSIS In this practical age and because of the many various claims of the day, it is but natural that people, who hear of transcendentalism should at once ask the question: "How may we for ourselves know the truth of such statements?" Indeed, it is noticeable, as a characteristic of the majority, that they will accept nothing on faith, or mere "authority," but wish rather to rely entirely upon their own judgment.

THE SUPER PHYSICAL WORLD AND ITS GNOSIS In this practical age and because of the many various claims of the day, it is but natural that people, who hear of transcendentalism should at once ask the question: "How may we for ourselves know the truth of such statements?" Indeed, it is noticeable, as a characteristic of the majority, that they will accept nothing on faith, or mere "authority," but wish rather to rely entirely upon their own judgment. Therefore, when a mystic undertakes to explain something of the super physical nature of man, and of the destiny of the human soul and spirit before birth and after death, he is at once confronted with that fundamental demand. Such doctrine, they seem to think is important only when you have shown them the way by which they may convince themselves of its truth. Rudolf Steiner was a philosopher, social thinker, architect, and esotericist. His philosophical work, which he termed spiritual science, sought to provide a connection between the cognitive path of Western philosophy and the inner and spiritual needs of the human being. In The Way of Initiation, Steiner details the exercises and moral qualities to be cultivated on the path to a conscious experience of 'supersensible' realities. His short but powerful book is intended as a guide for achieving spiritual vision.
Autorenporträt
Das soziale Leben der Gegenwart stellt ernste, umfassende Aufgaben. Forderungen nach Neueinrichtungen in diesem Leben treten auf und zeigen, daß zur Lösung dieser Aufgaben Wege gesucht werden müssen, an die bisher nicht gedacht worden ist. Durch die Tatsachen der Gegenwart unterstützt, findet vielleicht heute schon derjenige Gehör, der, aus den Erfahrungen des Lebens heraus, sich zu der Meinung bekennen muß, daß dieses Nichtdenken an notwendig gewordene Wege in die soziale Verwirrung hineingetrieben hat. Auf der Grundlage einer solchen Meinung stehen die Ausführungen dieser Schrift. Sie möchten von dem sprechen, was geschehen sollte, um die Forderungen, die von einem großen Teile der Menschheit gegenwärtig gestellt werden, auf den Weg eines zielbewußten sozialen Wollens zu bringen.
