LIMITED EDITION HARDBACKS TO COMMEMORATE THE 150TH ANNIVERSARY OF
RUDOLF STEINER'S BIRTH Rudolf Steiner Press is proud to publish a
new series of re-edited, re-typeset and re-designed editions of the
classic, authorised translations of Rudolf Steiner's four
fundamental works. Each volume of this series is printed in a
limited edition of 1,000 copies and sewn-bound in high-quality
cloth, finished with coloured end-papers and a marker ribbon. Given
his energetic involvement in practical initiatives and extensive
lecturing, Rudolf Steiner had little time to write books. Of those
he did write - belonging almost entirely to the earlier years of
his work - four titles form an indispensable introduction to his
later teaching: Knowledge of the Higher Worlds, Occult Science, The
Philosophy of Freedom and Theosophy. Rudolf Steiner's fundamental
handbook for spiritual and personal development has grown more
modern as time has passed, although his methods remain clearly
distinguishable from the many others now in circulation. For one
thing, Steiner's path of spiritual growth is based on the clarity
of thought normally associated with scientific research. Rather
than denying clear thinking, his aim is to extend it beyond its
present limitations. Secondly, Steiner recognizes - as in all
genuine disciplines - that the path to spiritual experience is an
arduous and dangerous one, calling for self-control in thought,
word and deed. Human beings comprise a unity, and we cannot develop
knowledge without a corresponding development in feeling and will.
Rudolf Steiner foretold that humanity would begin to experience a
longing for forms of experience that transcend intellectual,
materialistic thinking. More than 100 years after the first
publication of this book in 1904, there are countless means to
achieve such experience, such as eastern meditation, channelling,
remote viewing and astral projection. In addition, there has been a
huge growth in people reporting extrasensory perceptions of various
kinds, such as near-death experiences and meetings with angels. In
this context, Steiner's key spiritual workbook - reproduced here in
the classic Osmond/Davy translation - is needed more than ever,
given its unique, precise instructions for inner training, its
protective exercises, and its indications for grounding and
centring. Knowledge of the Higher Worlds begins with the conditions
required for personal development, and guides us through the stages
of initiation, its practical aspects and its effects.
