The philosophy of spiritual activity (translated)
By by Rudolf SteinerLength7h 25m
About this audiobook
This seminal work affirms that free spiritual activity - understood as the human capacity to think and act independently of one's physical nature - is today the most appropriate path to inner development and true self-knowledge. This is not simply a volume of philosophy, but also a friendly guide to the practice and experience of living thought. Rudolf Steiner provides a step-by-step account of how we can come to experience living, intuitive thinking, the conscious experience of pure spirit.
Since this book was written over a century ago, many have sought to discover the kind of new way of thinking that can help us better understand the spiritual, ecological, social, political and philosophical issues we face. Steiner showed a path that leads from ordinary thinking to the level of pure spiritual activity, true inner freedom.
