In their everyday life, the ancient Greeks enjoyed a close association with the spiritual worlds. An indication of this is reflected in the ways that human passions and frailties were assigned by them to their gods. Today, people depend on intellectual, rational knowledge and have lost that link to spirit.

In these lectures, Rudolf Steiner discusses the Eleusinian and Dionysian Mysteries and shows how that living reality of the spiritual worlds can be reawakened through our modern viewpoint by cultivating spiritual science. With this approach, we can once again, like our predecessors, glimpse the same living beings behind the figures of Greek mythology.

10 lectures, Munich, Aug. 18-27, 1911 (GA129)
