There is no way of approach to the Grail through words of any kind, or through 
philosophical speculations. The only way is by changing all these words into feeling, 
by becoming able to feel in the Grail the sum of all that is holy. - Rudolf Steiner 
(from lecture 6) Reviewing human history in relation to the cosmic-earthly events of 
Christ s incarnation, Rudolf Steiner explains the significance of both the Gnostic 
religion and the legend of the Holy Grail. 
He indicates how the Grail emerges in human history, and how the stellar script 
relates to the secret of Parsifal. Steiner examines humanity s existential quest in 
the historical patterns of human thought and spiritual development. We are shown 
the widespread influence of the sibyls, who with their astrological and clairvoyant 
prophecies were a backdrop to one of the richest cultural epochs, the Greco-Roman 
world. Steiner contrasts the revelations of the sibyls to those of the Hebrew prophets.
 This course of lectures, a complete edition from Steiner s Collected Works, offers 
an illuminating insight into the development of the soul through succeeding ages.
