A Road to Self Knowledge by Rudolf Steiner

Description

A Road to Self Knowledge is a book by Rudolf Steiner, first published in 1918. Ostensibly an amplification of his earlier work on higher worlds and how to attain them, this compact guide presents eight meditations and practical exercises designed to develop inner observation and spiritual perception. Steiner frames the exercises so a sincere reader may progress from imagining the physical body toward experiencing the etheric, astral and “I” or thought-body, and ultimately confronting the Guardian of the Threshold — a vivid motif in his work that addresses the moral and psychological clearing necessary for genuine inner development. Written from the perspective of anthroposophy and spiritual-scientific inquiry, the book sits at the intersection of mystical training and pragmatic self-development. It is oriented toward readers seeking hands-on guidance for spiritual growth, offering imagery, disciplined meditation practice, and a roadmap for cultivating clairvoyant cognition and conscience. Over the decades it has influenced teachers and practitioners in spiritual communities, Waldorf education circles, and those interested in contemplative practices that combine ethics, inner work, and a systematic approach to higher perception.
