It is organized into four parts. First, Steiner builds a comprehensive understanding of human nature: physical bodily nature; soul qualities; spirit being, or I-being; and the higher spiritual aspects. This leads us to Steiner's description of the human being as sevenfold: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Material, physical body \u003cbr\u003e- Ether body, or body of life forces \u003cbr\u003e- Sentient soul body \u003cbr\u003e- Mind soul \u003cbr\u003e- Spirit-filled consciousness soul \u003cbr\u003e- Life spirit \u003cbr\u003e- Spirit body (or spirit man)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the next section, Steiner offers an extraordinary overview of the laws of reincarnation and the principles of karma, as we pass from one life to the next. This prepares us for the third section, in which he shows the various ways in which we live--during life on earth and after death and in the three worlds of body, soul, and spirit. \u003cbr\u003eFinally, we are given a succinct description of the path of knowledge, along which each person can begin to understand the marvelous and harmonious complexity of the psycho-spiritual worlds in their fullness. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis volume is a translation of \u003ci\u003e  Theosophie, Einführung in übersinnliche Welterkenntnis und Menschenbestimmung  \u003c\/i\u003e (GA 9).\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rudolf Steiner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0880101792\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780880101790\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steiner Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/19\/1994\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.60h x 5.30w x 0.50d","brand":"Rudolf Steiner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46974514954495,"sku":"9780880101790","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0e05ce08-813e-4fdd-a6ec-6237074369ee.jpg?v=1750875258","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/theosophy-rudolf-steiner-9780880101790","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
