This unique work--the fruit of many decades of research and experience--sheds new light on the suprasensory history and karma of the Michaelic movement since Rudolf Steiner's death. It describes that movement's evolution and transformation in the etheric world during the twentieth century, from the world-changing apocalypse of the 1930s and '40s through to the beginning of its incarnation on Earth at the end of the twentieth century. The book also focuses on developments in the work of building the community of the School of Spiritual Science, which embodies the new Michaelic movement today.
As Ben-Aharon indicates, the Michaelic movement is searching for creative, courageous, and enthusiastic souls to foster a strong community that develops--from decade to decade--as a living organism. Based on the continuous resurrection of Anthroposophy, this community strives to create a fully conscious meeting and communication with the school of Michael and Christ in the etheric world, in a form that is appropriate and required by the time. The transcripts of these lectures collect the author's experiences with Anthroposophy during the past four decades in the light of present communications from the spiritual world. It is based on contemporary spiritual investigation and individual, lived experience.
