Autobiography

Více o knize

Entering this world with defined soul predispositions suggests that my life’s course is influenced by these traits, implying a spiritual existence before birth. As a spirit, I embody a repetition of someone whose biography informs my own. Each life reflects the human spirit's continuity, enriched by past experiences. In his Autobiography, Rudolf Steiner offers a rare glimpse into his inner life, personal relationships, and key events that shaped him as a philosopher, seer, and teacher. This edition restores the original format of seventy chapters, reflecting the content as it appeared in the Goetheanum weekly newsletter. Steiner's story transcends mere successes and failures; it reveals a soul with a keen scientific mind and natural clairvoyance, enabling him to perceive the spiritual realm. While inherently clairvoyant, he valued modern scientific methods, leading to the development of Anthroposophy, or spiritual science. Over the century since these events, Steiner's insights have profoundly influenced various aspects of life, continuing to transform experiences in the twenty-first century. This illustrated, revised, and expanded edition is the first volume in The Collected Works of Rudolf Steiner, a series that will compile all English translations of his writings, including many previously unavailable.
