Synopsis "Karmic Relationships 1: Esoteric Studies (Cw 235)"

12 lectures, Dornach, February 16 - March 23, 1924 (CW 234)During 1924, before his final address in September, Rudolf Steiner gave more than eighty lectures on karma to members of the Anthroposophical Society. These profoundly esoteric lectures examine the underlying laws of reincarnation and karma, exploring in detail the incarnations of various named historical figures. In Steiner's words, the study of karma is "a matter of penetrating into the most profound mysteries of existence, for within the sphere of karma and the course it takes lie those processes which are the basis of the other phenomena of world-existence?"In this fundamental first volume--and essential basis for study of the later volumes--Rudolf Steiner provides an overview of the laws and conditions of karma, considering the incarnations of Friedrich Nietzsche, Lord Bacon of Verulam, Lord Byron and many others.This volume is a translation of Esoterische Betrachtungen karmischer Zusammenhänge, in 6 Bdn., Bd.1 (GA 235).

Rudolf Steiner (Donji Kraljevec, Austro-Hungarian Empire, now Croatia, February 25 or 27, 1861-Dornach, Switzerland, March 30, 1925) was an Austrian philosopher, literary scholar, educator, artist, playwright, social thinker, and occultist. He was the founder of anthroposophy, Waldorf education, biodynamic agriculture, anthroposophic medicine, and the new artistic form of eurythmy.

He described anthroposophy as follows: Anthroposophy is a path of knowledge that would like to lead the spiritual in man to the spiritual in the universe. Those who feel certain questions about the essence of man and the world as a vital necessity as the one felt when we are hungry and thirsty can be anthroposophists.

Steiner proposed a form of ethical individualism, to which he later added a more explicitly spiritual component. He derived his epistemology from the worldview of Johann Wolfgang Goethe, according to which thought is an organ of perception just like the eye or the ear. Just as the eye perceives colors and the ear sounds, so thought perceives ideas.
