The rebirth of the feminine surrounds us in many forms--from the
global movement for women's rights to a renewed interest in
feminine spirituality, the Goddess, and the Divine Mother. What is
the spiritual meaning of this rebirth? What is the feminine divine?
Who is she? The feminine divine has had many names in many
cultures: Ishtar in Babylon, Inanna in Sumeria, Athena, Hera,
Demeter, and Persephone in Greece, Isis in Egypt, Durga, Kali, and
Lakshmi in India. She is the Shekinah of the Cabalists, and the
Sophia of the Gnostics. To Steiner, she is Anthroposophia (or
Divine Wisdom), who descended from the spiritual world and passed
through humanity to become now the goal and archetype of human
wisdom in the cosmos. This book contains most of Steiner's
statements on Sophia. We see him "midwifing" the birth of the
Sophia, the new Isis, and divine feminine wisdom, in human hearts
on earth. Each chapter explores the mystery of the various
relationships of Sophia: Sophia and Isis, Sophia and the Holy
Spirit, Sophia and Mary, the mother of Jesus (and Mary Magdalene),
Sophia and the Gnostic Achamod, and Sophia and the New Isis. Above
all, in a remarkable way, Steiner makes clear the relationship of
Christ and Sophia. Contents: * Introduction by Christopher Bamford
