'_When we know how to enter deeply into the realm of the soul, we
reach understanding of the harmony that exists between successive
lives on earth and the whole of the physical world outside us_.' -
Rudolf Steiner.
In these eight lectures, given during the Great War as thousands of
young men were being killed in battle, Rudolf Steiner - the great
initiate of the twentieth century - describes the dramatic reality of
the spiritual worlds encountered by human beings after death. He
speaks of the joys and sufferings experienced in those worlds by
people of different character; the vision of the 'ideal human being'
that souls experience; the cosmic 'midnight hour'; the processes
leading to rebirth in the world of the senses; the deeper causes
behind such phenomena as materialism and criminality; and why, in the
flesh, we lose our instinctive perception of the spiritual worlds.
Steiner describes how knowledge of the spiritual realms, as well as
the life beyond death and before birth, can be built on the
foundations of modern science. Indeed, he speaks of mankind's
involvement in science and its many achievements as necessary steps on
the path towards a modern spirituality and true understanding of the
soul, and describes in detail some of the methods by which direct
perception of the worlds of soul and spirit can be developed.
