3 lectures, edited and rewritten by Rudolf Steiner in 1911 (CW 15)

If periodically we look back on what we have experience or done in life, we make a strange discovery, one that becomes more meaningful for us the older we become. Whenever we think about what we did or said at some time in the past, it turns out that we did a great many things we actually understood only at a later date. When we think of things we did seven or eight years ago--or perhaps twenty years ago--we realize that only now, after a long time, is our mind sufficiently developed to understand what we did or said then. --Rudolf Steiner

Steiner begins this work by pointing to our awareness of a second self that guides us through life. It guides us as infants and children as we attain vertical balance in space, learn to communicate in community, and begin to think in the world. Through this initial wisdom (which is still connected to the spiritual hierarchies) we enter the physical realm and then, as we grow, we exchange it for self-awareness and memory.
