4.0 out of 5 stars The Key to Spiritual Advancement, May 5, 2000
By J Durberville (Australia) - See all my reviews
Rudolph Steiner, a Theosophist, wrote this book. The content of this book largely revolves around Steiner's knowledge of the Higher Worlds. They are very complex and involve deep reading. Written in a very intellectual manner, Steiner straightforwardly passes on how he perceives the universe to work. The universe is a manifestation of many worlds, of many inhabitants, and Steiner states it is possible to attain to these worlds through both being knowledgeable of them and actively striving for further spiritual attainment. For many, this book has served as a key to spiritual advancement. I do not recommend it for the initiating Theosophist, the content is too complex without having read a background of Theosophy. For intermediate spiritualists and occultists and anyone who has a fairly good understanding and willingness to KNOW and to UNDERSTAND the universe as Steiner sees it, this book is a godsend and may possibly change your own view of life in general.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Guide to Daily Living, April 1, 2004
By Dr. W Terry Howell "terryhowell4" (Franklin, Tennessee United States) - See all my reviews
Even if one is not interested in knowing about and experiencing higher worlds, this book is a great guide to living, full of wisdom and insight. A true spiritual path is also a path toward becoming a mature human being, which may not be terribly exciting to people seeking spiritual fireworks or wanting to promote egoistic aims. This path is one of selflessness and the strengthening of attention; both needed in an self-centered world suffering from an ever increasing attention deficit disorder. Steiner only speaks of what he has experienced personally. He is not a guru and expects no one to take his word for the truth of what he says. He encourages one to be open minded, try the exercises with patience and consistency(harder than one might think)and verify the truth for one's self.

5.0 out of 5 stars Clearly the best "how to" book dealing with meditation., December 17, 1997
By nadachair@aol.com (St. Paul, MN) - See all my reviews
Clearly the best "how to" book dealing with meditation! I got the sense that I was be talked to by one who had "been there, done that" and was clearly out to make sure my experience was a safe and sane one. The fact that this book was written early this century doesn't in any way diminish its currency. The audio book is unabridged and a wonderful way to revisit important passages again and again.
