'Our contemporaries - who wish to keep to a narrow-minded and
superficial outlook, are annoyed to find that spiritual science
continually seeks the whole picture - that it has to create a
bridge between the body and the soul, and truly explores how the
psyche becomes corporeal and the body becomes psychological.' How
do the soul and the spirit live in human physical bodies? In our
materialistic age, in which the very existence of the metaphysical
is widely rejected, such questions are rarely posed let alone
addressed. In this exceptional series of lectures, Rudolf Steiner
speaks in scientific detail about the connection of the subtle
aspects of human nature - our soul and spirit - to our physical
constitution. At the heart of this course are the well-loved
'Bridge' lectures, which appear in English for the first time in
their wider context. Steiner discusses the solid, fluid, air and
warmth bodies, and how these are connected with the various ethers,
the 'I' and human blood. He goes on to describe how ideals and
ideas impact the various aspects of the human constitution - how
morality is a source of 'world creativity' - with moral thinking
imbuing life into substance and will. Moral ideas have a positive
effect, he says, whereas theoretical ones have a negative impact.
In the realm of the moral, a new natural world comes into being,
and thus the moral order and the natural order are intertwined.
This volume also features Steiner's classic lecture on the Isis
legend and its renewal today as divine wisdom - Sophia. Other
themes include the mystery of Christ as the connection between the
spiritual and physical sun; the permeation of the life of thought
with will (love) and permeation of the life of will with thoughts
(wisdom); the path to freedom and love and their importance in the
universe; the metamorphosis of head and limbs through successive
lives on earth; the threefold nature of the human form (head,
thorax, limbs), the threefold nature of the soul (thinking,
feeling, will) and the threefold nature of the spirit (waking,
dreaming, sleeping).
