Human Evolution - Rudolf Steiner - Bog

Rudolf Steiner discusses how we experience a state of separateness with the world through our physical form, while our aura--or soul-spiritual being--is already living actively in cosmic surroundings. A conscious crossing of the threshold into the spiritual world is urgent and necessary today, although Steiner warns of the dangers inherent in certain eastern and western approaches. The tendency of initiates of the East is to abandon the human race, while the American impulse is immersed too strongly in physical, bodily nature. And a potential demonic influence works through technology. However, a spiritual-scientific path of knowledge and development can allow us to navigate through these challenges.
