The Philosophy of Freedom | Free Book
The Basis for a Modern World Conception
Are we free, whether we know it or not? Or is our sense of freedom
merely an illusion? Rudolf Steiner tackles this age-old problem in a
new way. He shows that by taking account of our own activity of
thinking, we can know the reasons for our actions. And if these
reasons are taken from our world of ideals, then our actions are free,
because we alone determine them. But this freedom cannot be settled
for us by philosophical argument. It is not simply granted to us. If
we want to become free, we have to strive through our own inner
activity to overcome our unconscious urges and habits of thought. In
order to do this we must reach a point of view that recognises no
limits to knowledge, sees through all illusions, and opens the door to
an experience of the reality of the spiritual world. Then we can
achieve the highest level of evolution. We can recognise ourselves as
free spirits. This special reprint, featuring the acclaimed
translation by Michael Wilson, is being made available in response to
public demand.
