Synopsis "Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts 2: The Cognitional Path of Anthroposophy - The Mystery of Michael"

Rudolf Steiner continues in this second installment of the Leading Thoughts to recast anthroposophy in a more succinct, coherent, and elegant form. He covers six main topics: Consciousness in the primordial past, Michael as the Ruler of Thoughts, how the Leading Thoughts are to be used, karma, dreams and higher levels of knowledge, and the Hierarchies. An austere clarity is born of brevity, making this book unsuitable for those new to anthroposophy.

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.
