Some people's path to anthroposophy leads them directly to Rudolf
Steiner's early work and The Philosophy of Freedom, and this
becomes the philosophical basis for their future exploration.
Rudolf Steiner referred to this as a 'safe' approach.But many
people's destiny leads them directly to anthroposophy itself, or
via one of its practical initiatives, making it difficult sometimes
for them to relate to the cognitive basis of anthroposophy. In this
unique study Sergei O. Prokofieff offers fresh means of access to
Rudolf Steiner's crucially important book, The Philosophy of
Freedom. Prokofieff indicates why The Philosophy of Freedom is so
important to anthroposophy. It is here that Rudolf Steiner lays the
foundations for his method of research. In Steiner's own words:
"One who is willing can indeed find the basic principles of
anthroposophy in my Philosophy of Freedom". Prokofieff discusses
the Christian nature of the anthroposophical method of cognition,
and how it is integrally related to freedom and love. This in turn
reveals the deeply Christian roots of The Philosophy of Freedom and
its importance for modern Christian esotericism. In fact, says
Prokofieff, the book holds a 'central position ...in the spiritual
history of the Occident'. In considering its multifaceted
'cosmic-human dimension', the author discusses The Philosophy of
Freedom in relation to the Mystery of the Resurrection, the Working
of the Hierarchies, the Being Anthroposophia, the Fifth Gospel,
Rudolf Steiner's Path of Initiation, the Rosicrucian and Michaelic
Impulses, the Life Between Death and Rebirth, the Foundation Stone,
the Christian Mysteries of Karma and the Science of the Grail.

Education for Nonviolence describes how we can actually do
something about our increasingly violent world. Few in the media
draw a clear connection between the all-too-frequent tragedies we
hear and read about in the news each day and the way as parents and
teachers we raise and educate our children. Abstract concepts, rote
learning, and standardized tests cannot develop the emotional and
social intelligence our children need later in life to build
relationships, contribute to society, and succeed in the workplace.
The author describes how Waldorf independent and charter schools
provide much-needed pathways toward wholeness--sensory and
nature-based education; the arts; character education; community
building; traditions of hospitality; meeting the needs of boys...to
name just a few of the topics covered in this book. Waldorf schools
are founded on the social ideals grounded in an abiding belief that
our schools can make a crucial difference in building a future
society that is less violent, more just, and truly compassionate.
May this book help us rededicate ourselves to our social mission as
we celebrate a century of Waldorf education in 2019.
