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.

18 lectures & conversations with 57 priests, Dornach, Sept 5–22, 1924 (CW 346) John's Book of Revelation, the Apocalypse, has been subjected to countless theological and academic interpretations over the years, usually based on theories and abstract speculations. Rudolf Steiner, however, discussed the Book of Revelation through direct experience and knowledge of the spiritual truths contained in John's mysterious imagery. Rudolf Steiner had already presented his insights on the Apocalypse to various audiences, but in 1924 he presented a completely new perspective. This time, his comments were in response to requests from priests of The Christian Community, the movement for religious renewal, which itself had taken form on the basis of Steiner's insights. This book will be of value to anyone who would like a fresh perspective on the most enigmatic book of the New Testament. Includes eight color plates of blackboard drawings. This book is a translation from German of text reconstructed from notes taken by the participants, originally published as Vorträge und Kurse über christlich-religiöses Wirken, Bd.5, Apokalypse und Priesterwirken (GA 296).

Rudolf Steiner's collection of fifty-two meditative verses--presented here in both English and German--were first published in 1925, shortly after Steiner's death. These verses, representing the fifty-two weeks of the year, begin with Easter week and offer thoughts that help one find a deeper relationship with the spiritual forces at work throughout the year. Each verse in this volume appears alongside the corresponding verse for the week that represents a kind of opposite (or "compensating") force during the year. This durable, pocket-sized hardcover volume also includes a short introduction by Hans Pusch, describing a unique and useful way to approach The Calendar of the Soul. Click HERE to read more. The Calendar of the Soul is a translation of "Anthroposophischer Seelenkalender," included in Wahrspruchworte (GA 40).
