Written in 1901, based on lectures at the Theosophical Library, Berlin (CW 7)

Natural science makes bread; the 'mystics' taught the way of cultivating their souls as a garden in which such seeds could sprout and reach their full potential. 'Mysticism' from this point of view is an inner process that can illuminate and transform--make transparent to their higher meaning--outer facts. The fragmented multiplicity of the 'dissected' world becomes thereby unified in meaning. -- Christopher Bamford (foreword)

The mystics Steiner writes about in this book were early giants in the modern art of illumined self-knowledge. Their ways of seeing the world, God, and themselves foreshadowed all that we practice now in the best of meditation, both East and West. Here, you can read about their essential passion for unity, their practice of intensification of perception, and their ever-fresh insights into the process of knowing itself.
