Your favourite occupation? Pondering and musing. Your idea of happiness? Pondering and musing. Your most extreme aversion? Pedantry and a sense of order. Of what are you afraid? Punctuality. The above quotations are extracted from a questionnaire filled in by a young man in his late twenties. That person, Rudolf Steiner, was later to found the spiritual science of anthroposophy and the many practical disciplines that arose from it. Eventually, he would write his Autobiography, although its composition would be interrupted by his unexpected death. This little volume is an essential complement to Steiner's unfinished autobiography. It gathers a wealth of personal testimonies - including lectures, resumes, notebook entries, a questionnaire, as well as biographical notes written for Edouard Schure - much of which has not been previously published in English. The various materials, together with rare photographs, have been expertly collated and introduced by Walter Kugler.

About Rudolf Steiner
Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925) called his spiritual philosophy 'anthroposophy' meaning 'wisdom of the human being'. As a highly developed seer he based his work on direct knowledge and perception of spiritual dimensions. He initiated a modern and universal 'science of spirit' accessible to anyone willing to exercise clear and unprejudiced thinking. spacer spacer From his spiritual investigations Steiner provided suggestions for the renewal of many activities including education (both general and special) agriculture medicine economics architecture science philosophy religion and the arts. Today there are thousands of schools clinics farms and other organizations involved in practical work based on his principles. His many published works feature his research into the spiritual nature of the human being the evolution of the world and humanity and methods of personal development. Steiner wrote some 30 books and delivered over 6000 lectures across Europe. In 1924 he founded the General Anthroposophical Society which today has branches throughout the world.
