About this book

Edouard Schuré's biographical essay on Rudolf Steiner comes before the main text in this edition, translated from the German by Max Gysi and issued in New York by Macoy Publishing and Masonic Supply Co. as its first Americanized edition. Steiner, the Austrian-born philosopher who founded anthroposophy, wrote on the training of those who seek knowledge of higher worlds.

Eight chapters lead from the superphysical world through the path of discipleship, probation, enlightenment and initiation to the higher education of the soul and the conditions of discipleship. The translator's note stresses that the advice rests on the author's own experience.
