Over the course of his career, Rudolf Steiner wrote seven foundational works--seven basic books--that present a pathway from the earthly realms to the higher worlds. Each taking up a different viewpoint to represent the many pathways to the spirit, the basic books share two characteristics in common: each is written for the general public, and each presented a complete path to the higher worlds. Steiner intended the basic books to provide the seeker with guidance that honors the freedom of individual conscience in the modern age of thinking. In this holistic yet compact survey, Spaulding draws on forty years of teaching and lecturing to present a guide to the basic books that weaves specific advice for study into the rich context of Steiner's biography, his major social initiatives and artistic works, and the three major periods of the development of the Anthroposophical Society. This book will prove valuable for a broad range of readers, from the novice who is approaching Steiner for the first time and seeking a foothold in where to start and what to read; to the long-time student and experienced anthroposophist who is seeking guideposts for further insight and meditative depth; to the study group that is taking up one of the basic books and would like a companion for discussion, reflection, and inspiration.
Includes a new translation of the Foundation Stone Mediation into the American plain style.
