Rosicrucianism and Modern Initiation
Add to CartThese lectures, given just after the Christmas Foundation Meeting and following Rudolf Steiner's lecture course World History and the Mysteries and describe the changes in the inner life and consciousness of Western humanity since the ninth century. The previous awareness of the existence of the spiritual within all realms of nature disappeared, to be replaced by today's consciousness of only the sensory world.
The esoteric stream of knowledge, however, was preserved quietly by inconspicuous teachers and their widely scattered students. Rudolf Steiner describes the inner teachings of the early Rosicrucian schools and alchemists as well as those of later occult schools of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
This background leads to consideration of the inner training that is most appropriate for today—the mastery of science and its transformation through individual self-development of inner capacities.
Contents:
Research into the Life of the Spirit during the Middle Ages
Hidden Centers of the Mysteries in the Middle Ages
The Time of Transition
The Relationship of Man to the Sun
Occult Schools in the Eighteenth and First Half of the Nineteenth Centuries
The Task of the Michael Age
