In these much-valued lectures, Rudolf Steiner begins by positing
the question, 'Why investigate the spiritual worlds at all?' He
goes on to explore the contemporary need for spiritual knowledge
and the authentic paths that can lead to it. Speaking in Torquay,
England, at the International Summer School organized by his friend
and colleague D.N. Dunlop, Steiner surveys the differences in
various types of consciousness - from ancient to modern times, in
waking and dreaming, from space into time - and the changes that
have taken place in relation to knowledge and science in the course
of history. He goes on to discuss the Mystery nature of
crystallized minerals and metals such as copper and silver, and
their relationship to the planets. He also describes how the ages
of life can become organs of perception. In a dramatic conclusion
Steiner explains the role of moon beings, ahrimanic elemental
beings, and the true nature of mediumship, ectoplasm and spiritual
possession. Presented here in a fresh translation that corrects
many errors in previous editions, the text is complemented with
notes, an introduction by Paul King and an index. Lectures include:
'Nature is the Great Illusion. "Know Thyself"'; 'The Three Worlds
and their Reflected Images'; 'Form and Substantiality of the
Mineral Kingdom in relation to Human Levels of Consciousness'; 'The
Secret of Research into other Realms through the Metamorphosis of
Consciousness'; 'The Inner Enlivening of the Soul through the
Qualities of Metals'; 'Initiation Science'; 'Star Knowledge';
'Possible Aberrations in Spiritual Research'. (Eleven lectures,
11-22 Aug. 1924, GA 243)
