Knowledge of the Higher Worlds | Free Book
How is it Achieved?
Rudolf Steiner's fundamental handbook for spiritual and personal
development has grown more modern as time has passed, although his
methods remain clearly distinguishable from the many others now in
circulation. For one thing, Steiner's path of spiritual growth is
based on the clarity of thought normally associated with scientific
research. Rather than denying clear thinking, his aim is to extend it
beyond its present limitations. Secondly, Steiner recognizes - as all
genuine disciplines always have - that the path to spiritual
experience is an arduous and dangerous one, calling for self-control
in thought, word and deed. Human beings comprise a unity, and we
cannot develop knowledge without a corresponding development in
feeling and will. Rudolf Steiner foretold that humanity would begin to
experience a longing for forms of experience that transcended
intellectual, materialistic thinking. More than one hundred years
after the first publication of this book in 1904, there are countless
means to achieve such experience, such as eastern meditation,
channelling, remote viewing and astral projection. In addition, there
has been a huge growth in people reporting extrasensory perceptions of
various kinds, such as near-death experiences and meetings with
angels. In this context, Steiner's key spiritual workbook - reproduced
here in the classic Osmond/Davy translation - is needed more than
ever, given its unique, precise instructions for inner training, its
protective exercises, and its indications for grounding and centring.
Knowledge of the Higher Worlds begins with the conditions required for
personal development, and guides us through the stages of initiation,
its practical aspects and its effects.
