One type of special interest is Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925), a learned philosopher and thinker, a lover and promoter of mysticism and occultism, who founded a philosophical doctrine called "anthroposophy , although at the beginning drank Blavatsky's theosophical currents and company.
believed fervently in man's psychic abilities, applying this idea to its philosophy (thought, like Goethe, that thought is an organ of perception comparable to the other senses.
" the same way that the eye perceives colors and the ear sounds, so thinking perceives ideas "), and for this reason we paid special attention to the subject matter is, the lost continents and old groups humans, who believed, as the Theosophists, had these psychic abilities are much more developed than us.
was initially interested in the technical sciences, studying mathematics and physics at Vienna, which then joined the philosophy, after the meeting with a mysterious "master", which presented a herbalist friend. He received his Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Rostock, Germany, with a thesis based on the concept of the ego of Fichte, which was later published as "Truth and Science." Also started working as a proofreader and editor of the works of Goethe, whom he admired, and make a full issues Arthur Schopenhauer.
At that time wrote what is considered his most important philosophical work, "Die Philosophie der Freiheit (The Philosophy of Freedom, 1894).
I've always admired Nietzsche , and it is thanks to this gentleman that we have lesser-known works: in 1896, the philosopher's sister, Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche, asked for help to sort the Nietzsche archive in Naumburg .
philosopher at that time was out mentally, almost catatonic. Steiner came to see him in the asylum, which greatly influenced him, to the extent that he later devoted a work, "Friedrich Nietzsche, a fighter against his time"
In 1899, he married Anna Steiner Eunick, but soon parted.
That same year he was invited by Count and Countess Brockdorff, to speak at a gathering of Theosophists on Nietzsche. Steiner continued speaking regularly to the members of the Theosophical Society, becoming its Secretary-General of newly formed German section in 1902, without ever formally join the society. Within this society, Steiner met Marie von Sievers, with whom he worked, and who became his second wife in 1914.
Their approach Theosophical was always original and based on his own research that connects with the spiritual teachings of the esoteric tradition and Western philosophy. This and other differences led to a formal break in 1912/13, when Steiner and most members of the German section of the Theosophical Society broke away to form a new group, the Anthroposophical Society, which went through the roof.
entered the Freemasons, leading a lodge, "Mystica Aeterna", belonging to the Order of Memphis Mizraim, between 1906 and 1914, adding references to ritual Masonic Rosicrucians.
About 1920 he began to have problems with the Nazis (Which had burned down the headquarters of the Anthroposophical Society, the "Goetheanum" that I leave a picture here below), who accused him of being a traitor to Germany, among other things, for his suggestion to grant independence to Upper Silesia , Polish land claimed by Germany. Some said he was Jewish Nazis, others, like Hitler himself, accused him of being a tool of the Jews. The truth is that he was against the rampant anti-Semitism, but also against Zionism.
The Beer Hall Putsch of 1923 in Munich, he had to abandon his residence Steiner in Berlin, saying that if those responsible for the failed coup came to power in Germany and would not be able to enter the country, also warned against the disastrous effects it would have for Central Europe that the National Socialists came to power ... how right had.
Beginning in 1923, showed increasing signs of frailty and illness, despite what kept traveling and lecturing. He died on March 30, 1925.
Steiner stated that from an early age had psychic experiences with the spiritual world, and applied his training in mathematics, physics and philosophy to channel and control. He reached the idea that through training and study could develop those skills, becoming a free individual, moral and creative.
these ideas embodied in works such as "Theosophy" (1904), which advances his ideas of the constitution of man in body-soul-spirit, reincarnation and unity of the spiritual and perceptible by the senses, or " How to attain knowledge of higher worlds "(1904/1905), he describes his conception of a path of spiritual development.
Steiner, in various works, especially in "Occult Science", 1910, part of the idea, not new and clearly inherited from Theosophy that humanity can be traced back to Atlantis, and this, in turn, to Lemuria.
"Previously, there was a vast continent in regions where today lies the Atlantic Ocean that was the old continent" Atlantis ", while much of the regions now mankind inhabited by European, Asian and African, was covered by the sea. With the great Atlantean cataclysm which took place in the water element on our earth, the face of it changed completely. "
also believes in the idea that before there were other civilizations of Lemuria Earth and is the reinstatement of previous planetary states, namely: the old moon, the old Sun and the old Saturn. The Earth itself, as it has progressed in its development, had the mission of adding to the three bodies developed during his previous planetary states - the physical body of Saturn, the etheric body, the Sun and the astral body, on Moon - the self, as the fourth vehicle of the human being. All that has preceded the time of Lemuria, was only preparation for the mission of the Earth. "
" We know what were the processes throughout the universe, which led the man to this degree of developmental maturity, we know that at the beginning of our ongoing evolution, the Earth was united with the Sun and the Moon, and then, first of all, the sun broke, leaving a planetary body composed of our Earth and our Moon . But we also know that if the earth had been united with the Moon, every human being as such then existed, would have hardened, mummified, it would become woody. To avoid this, we had to throw the Earth, everything on the moon had substance and entities. "
" Before the time of Lemuria there for a period in which much of the planet was uninhabited, because souls , wanting to go down, they found appropriate bodies. What happened next with these souls? "
The people of Atlantis migrated to the east and west, settling in the different territories. Thus arose the civilization we have also characterized: the culture of ancient India, the ancient Persian culture, the Egyptian-Chaldean, Greco-Roman and our culture today.
In this way humans have been changed: "after this disaster, first developed by the ancient culture of India during which the man lived more identified with his ethereal body and not so strongly linked with your body physical as later happened. "
to reach our current stage, in which materialism and the physical world is what prevails.
But Steiner argues that we have within us the "mechanism" to perceive the spiritual world that claimed to exist. And we have because we have inherited from our ancestors Atlantis. We just have to activate it, and that is devoted their work in the Anthroposophical Society.
So the idea of \u200b\u200bAtlantis, even if they do not, it was essential to his philosophy.
