This recent translation of a masterwork of esotericism places
humankind at the very heart of the vast, invisible processes of
cosmic evolution. When we use the term natural science don't we
mean that we are dealing with knowledge of nature?

Esoteric science is the science of what takes place esoterically,
in the sense that it is perceived not outside in nature but where
one's soul turns when it directs its inner being toward the
spirit. Esoteric science is the opposite and counterpart of
natural science. —Rudolf Steiner

As vital and relevant as when it was first published in 1910,
this masterpiece of esoteric, Rudolf Steiner worked and reworked
on rosicrucian cosmology for many years to make it increasingly
precise and accurate. This work remains the most effective
presentation to date of a spiritual alternative to contemporary
materialist cosmologies and the Darwinian view of human nature
and evolution.

In this basic work of spiritual science, readers learn how the
creation and evolution of humanity is embedded at the heart of
the vast, invisible web of interacting cosmic beings, through
whom the alchemical processes of cosmic evolution unfold. There
are also descriptions of the various bodies of the human being,
their relationship to sleep and death, and a detailed, practical
guide to the methods or exercises, including the Rose Cross
Meditation," through which such initiation knowledge can be
attained.

Most remarkable and revolutionary of all, perhaps, is the central
function that Rudolf Steiner allots to the Christ and to the
entrance of Christ into earthly evolution through the Mystery of
Golgotha.
