Selected lectures and writings from 1903 to 1922 (CW 245)
Selected from material given by Rudolf Steiner to members of his
Esoteric School (1904–1914), this volume features exercises,
meditations, and practices for spiritual self-development. In contrast
to Eastern methods of inner development, these arise from the
Western, Rosicrucian stream, adapted fully to modern consciousness.
Various exercises are given—for morning and evening, for the
days of the week, and for the months of the year. Also included
are numerous explanations that can deepen and enhance meditative
work, including several articles on inner development and the
obstacles one faces on the way to true self-awareness.
This enlarged edition contains additional clarification of the exercises,
descriptions of future world and human evolution, and advice that
Steiner gave later in his life on the nature of breathing exercises
and ancient and modern methods of initiation.
This is an invaluable resource for all those who are serious about
inner development, regardless of one’s chosen path.
This volume is a translation from German of the book
Anweisungen für eine esoterische Schulung (GA 245).
