英文說明

Despite dramatic advances in recent decades, medicine - like many 
other scientific disciplines - is prone to materialistic tendencies, 
viewing the human being as little more than a biological machine 
that can be manipulated with 'interventions' and drugs. In this 
collection of challenging lectures, Dr Glockler asks if a new science 
of healing can be developed today - a discipline that allows for 
realities of soul and spirit. With humanity standing at the threshold 
of a new spiritual consciousness, this question becomes increasingly 
relevant. Michaela Glockler speaks on themes relating to the esoteric 
path of spiritual development and its therapeutic task for the 
individual and community. Giving an account of the evolution of 
the ancient mysteries in relation to medicine, she discusses the 
application of inner work in outer action, reflecting on modern 
social and ethical issues such as organ transplantation and the 
termination of pregnancy. Whilst the author primarily addresses 
those involved in the healing professions, this book will be of interest 
to anybody concerned with a new science of the spirit.
