The Souls Awakening:Soul & Spiritual Events in Dramatic Scenes By Rudolf Steiner
The Souls' Awakening: A Mystery Drama: Soul and Spiritual Events in Dramatic Scenes By Rudolf Steiner: Translated from the German by Ruth and Hans Pusch with additional corrections and additions by Barbara Renold: Published in 1995 by Anthroposophic Press, NY: 188 pages: ISBN # 9 780880 104265. This RARE book in brand new and in MINT condition. Rudolf Steiner said of his mystery dramas (1910-13) that they contained the whole essence of Anthroposophy and that if, through some unlikely chance, only these dramas were to survive, the essential content of Anthroposophy would nevertheless be preserved. These dramas are powerful portrayals of the complex processes of reincarnation and karma. In them, we are led to inhabit the living landscape of the human soulspirit where supersensible beings work in the weaving of individual destines. Following the dramatic interplay of the joy and sorrow, struggle and striving of a group of individuals attempting to apply spiritual knowledge to their practical lives and relationships, we are brought into connection with the spiritual reality of human life itself. Thus, to read, watch or act in any of these plays is an initiatory experience. In The Souls' Awakening --Steiner's fourth mystery drama--an enlightened entrepreneur appoints a scientist, a historian, and an artist to use their spiritual perceptions to transform his business into one that serves spiritual as well as practical needs. A long-standing colleague objects, and a series of conflicts and crises develops. As the plot unfolds, we follow the characters on a journey that moves from business meetings through various states of consciousness, into worlds known before birth and previous lives in Egypt. This classic translation by Ruth and Hans Pusch was revised for this volume by Ruth Pusch. Included is Hans Pusch's "Thoughts on the Seal," in which he discusses the Rosicrucian meaning of the seal represented on the cover. This book is a translation of "Der Seelen Erwachen," published as part four of Vier Mysteriendramen The Four Mystery Dramas ), which includes "The Portal of Initiation"; "The Soul's Probation"; "The Guardian of the Threshold"; and "The Souls' Awakening."
