The ancient mystery saying called on the human being to 'Know
Yourself!' Rudolf Steiner explains that this maxim is not asking us to
study subjectively our own personal character, but rather to come to a
knowledge of our true, archetypal human nature - and with it the
position we occupy in the universe.
In these eloquent lectures - formerly published as Man, Hieroglyph of
the Universe - Rudolf Steiner speaks of the human being as the model
of creation, the primary focus of the cosmos. In an extensive
exposition he talks of the constellation of cosmic forces, zodiac and
planets amongst which we find ourselves situated. Only a true
knowledge of our human nature and the spiritual forces which surround
us - the microcosm within the greater macrocosm - can enable humanity
to progress, he says. This book is an important contribution to that
goal: the development of a contemporary spiritual science of the human
being.
