During the fall and winter of 1901–02, Steiner gave a series of lectures called “Christianity as Mystical Fact” to members of the Theosophical Society. The lectures were rewritten and issued as a book later that year. They mark a watershed in the development of Western esotericism.

The Way of Initiation, by Rudolf Steiner, is a profound exploration of the spiritual path towards self-knowledge and initiation.

Rudolf Steiner explores the astonishing, special relationship and deep spiritual connection between our own time and that of ancient Egypt. He tells us why it is important to study Eygpt, with its vast wisdom and knowledge of cosmic laws and myths.

All listeners, atheist, agnostic or theist, will discover much of interest in Steiner's brilliant prose. The influence of Mystery Wisdom on thinkers such as Plato, Heraclitus and Pythagoras is brought to life as Steiner explains how the initiate of the Mystery temples, such as those at Eleusis, ten miles from Athens, learnt to differentiate between mere knowledge and a wisdom that went beyond the transitory, phenomenal world of appearance to noumenal reality.

In Mystics of the Renaissance, Rudolf Steiner examines the thought of 11 European mystics (Eckhart, Tauler, Suso, Ruysbroek, Nicholas of Cusa, Agrippa von Nettesheim, Paracelsus, Weigel, Boehme, Giordano Bruno, and Angelus Silesius) through a collection of essays and explains their ideas and how they relate to modern Concepts.

Rudolf Steiner uses the history of Atlantis and Lemuria to discuss the esoteric evolution of man. He covers in more detail what is suggested in An Outline of Occult Science. There was a time when a continent called Atlantis still lay between Europe and America. This portion of the worlds surface was at one time land; this land now forms the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. Plato alluded to the last remaining remnant of that lost continent when he spoke of the Island of Poseidon.

Originally published in 1894, Rudolf Steiner's Die Philosophie der Freiheit was considered by Steiner to be his most enduring work above all others. This is the first English translation, which was done in 1916. Two years later, in 1918, he revised it to be more in line with The Theosophical Society's philosophy. In many ways, this edition is truer to his spirit then all other translations, including some of the modern ones.

The object of these lectures is to place before you an idea of the Christ-Event in so far as it is connected with the historical appearance of the Christ in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. So many questions of the spiritual life are bound up with this subject that the choice of it will enable us to make a wide survey of the realm of Spiritual Science and its mission, and to discuss the significance of the Anthroposophical Movement for the spiritual life of the present time.

Originally published in 1918, this book takes an extensive look into how to achieve greater self-knowledge, and is highly recommended for inclusion on the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in the subject. Contains eight meditations.

In the beginning, form was given to all created things by the Gods. This power of giving form has passed from the Gods to men, in so far as the mineral kingdom is concerned. In ancient traditions it was taught that man must accomplish the task of transforming the Earth in fulfillment of a threefold goal, namely the realization of truth, beauty, goodness. It is for man to make the Earth into a temple of truth, beauty, and goodness. And then, those who come after him will look upon his work as we now look upon the mineral world which came forth from the hands of the Gods.

Gegen Ende seines Lebens wendet sich Rudolf Steiner in Vorträgen und Schriften in besonderer Weise an die Mitglieder der Anthroposophischen Gesellschaft. Dabei ist es sein vorrangiges Anliegen, der dogmatischen Erstarrung der gedanklichen und spirituellen Substanz der bisher erarbeiteten Anthroposophie vorzubeugen, indem er das Gewonnene in immer anderen Formen neu entwickelt und dadurch der gelebten meditativen Praxis zu erschließen sucht.

A Road to Self-Knowledge by Rudolf Steiner is a spiritual-guide structured as eight meditations, each focusing on successive layers of human being—from the physical body and etheric (life-force) body, through the elemental world and the "Guardian of the Threshold," to the astral body, the I- or thought-body, the nature of experience in supersensible realms, and finally the remembrance of one's repeated earthly lives.

Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrate by Matthew Schmitz. This is the first English translation and the only one sanctioned by Rudolf Steiner himself. First published in 1916, it is based on the original 1894 German Die Philosophie der Freiheit. Other translations have been based on the 1918 revised German edition. It includes inspiring passages about individualism that were removed from the book in 1918 and are missing in later translations. The Philosophy of Freedom is the fundamental philosophical work of philosopher, Goethe scholar and esotericist Rudolf Steiner (1861–1925).

Of all of his works, The Philosophy of Spiritual Activity is the one that Steiner himself believed would have the longest life, and the greatest spiritual and cultural consequences. It was written as a phenomenological account of the results of observing the human soul, according to the methods of natural science.

This collection of 18 lectures delivered in Paris, France by Rudolf Steiner in 1906 is a must for any serious student of Steiner's philosophy. Ranging from esoteric insights into Christianity and Yoga, to astral planes and apocalypses.

In den 10 Autoreferaten des "Französischen Kurses" von 1922 am Goetheanum hat Steiner eine der letzten von ihm selbst veröffentlichten Schriften vorgelegt. Diese enthält eine stark komprimierte Zusammenfassung der anthroposophischen Wissenschaft vom Menschen und der Entwicklung seines Bewusstseins sowie eine Schilderung der Erlebnisse der Seele nach dem Tod und vor der Geburt. Sie stellt so gewissermaßen eine späte Metamorphose und Vertiefung seiner Theosophie von 1904 dar, in welcher vor allem auch seine christologischen Forschungsergebnisse mit einbezogen sind.

In seinem Buch "Die Rätsel der Philosophie" (1914), zunächst erschienen unter dem Titel "Welt- und Lebensanschauungen im neunzehnten Jahrhundert" (1900/1901) stellt Rudolf Steiner die Entwicklung der abendländischen Philosophie in den Kontext der Evolution des menschlichen Bewusstseins.

In den Aufsätzen "Aus der Akasha-Chronik" entwarf Rudolf Steiner von 1904 bis 1908 die Skizze einer geisteswissenschaftlichen Darstellung des gemeinsamen Werdens von Mensch und Kosmos. Vorangegangen war ein erstes kosmogonisches Fragment von 1904, welches der "Theosophie" eingefügt werden sollte (aber verworfen wurde und unveröffentlicht blieb). Es folgte 1910 die klassische Darstellung dieser Zusammenhänge in der "Geheimwissenschaft im Umriss".

Die Entwicklungstheorie Ernst Haeckels und insbesondere dessen "biogenetisches Grundgesetz" übten einen kaum zu überschätzenden Einfluss auf das steinersche Denken aus. Der kurze Text "Haeckel und seine Gegner" von 1900 bildet, neben seinen anderen intellektuellen Biographien über Goethe und Nietzsche, eine aufschlussreiche Quelle zum Verständnis der Entwicklung Rudolf Steiners, sowohl was sein vortheosophisches Werk angeht als auch im Hinblick auf seine spätere Esoterik.

Während der Jahre des Ersten Weltkrieges widmete sich Steiner intensiv der Verteidigung seiner anthroposophischen Geisteswissenschaft gegen zeitgenössische Kritiker. Die Schrift ›Von Seelenrätseln‹ von 1917 ist Ausdruck dieser Bemühungen. Steiner legt darin Wert darauf, die Anthroposophie methodisch klarer zu fassen als in früheren Texten und deren Forschungsansatz methodisch gegenüber dem naturwissenschaftlichen Paradigma zu verorten.
