Description: RUDOLF Steiner (18611925) is a name that has become synonymous with the practical application of spiritual values, a reputation that has earned the Austrian thinker and occultist the respect and admiration of millions of people from around the world. A one-time member of the Theosophical Society, established in the late-nineteenth century by Russian aristocrat Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (18311891), Steiner went on to form his own Anthroposophical movement based on promoting esoteric ideas within the spheres of education, medicine, agriculture, the performing arts, literature, mathematics, astronomy and science. A philosopher, mystic and clairvoyant, Steiner wrote a large number of books and spoke at thousands of meetings and events, creating such a popular following that his organisation was eventually persecuted and banned by Hitler's Nazi Party. Indeed, at a time when Europe found itself divided between the totalitarian ideologies of Communism and Fascism, he and his associates called for the implementation of a radical social programme known as Threefolding, which advocates the separation of culture, politics and economics into a complementary trio of independent domains. In this new volume, a group of objective writers sets out to analyse Steiner's ideas and initiatives in detail. Chapters include Rudolf Steiner's Blood Mysticism; Steiner and Nietzsche; Meditations on the Geist, the Christ and the Grail; Steiner and Child Development; Illuminating the Lightbringer: Rudolf Steiner and the True Nature of Lucifer; Steiner in the Context of Post-war Politics; Kundalini of the East, Kundalini of the West; The Influence of Max Stirner; Scientific Spirituality and Ethical Individualism; 7,000 Oaks: Joseph Beuys and Social Threefolding; The Modern Practicalities of Threefolding; Steiner's Warnings for the Epoch; and From Dialectical Thought to Living Thought: Rudolf Steiner's Philosophy of Freedom and Massimo Scaligero's Elaboration of It. The contributors are Troy Southgate (Editor), K.R. Bolton, Keith Preston, Von Sanngetall, Wayne John Sturgeon, Joo Franco, Stefano Arcella, Sean Jobst and Fulvio Saggiomo.
