English The Spiritual Guidance of Man and of Mankind Produced by Chris Curnow and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net (This file was produced from images generously made available by The Internet Archive) "The Spiritual Guidance of Man and of Mankind" by Rudolf Steiner is a philosophical text rooted in the teachings of Western esotericism, likely written in the early 20th century. The work elaborates on the spiritual and spiritual evolution of humanity, considering concepts from theosophy and occult science. It discusses the idea that there is a higher wisdom that guides the soul from childhood through various incarnations, and that understanding this wisdom is crucial for personal and collective development. The opening of the text introduces the notion of a dual self within each person, wherein the higher self governs the subconscious processes of growth and development during early childhood. Steiner emphasizes the importance of self-reflection in recognizing how our past actions resonate in our present understanding. He posits that individuals are guided by superior spiritual forces throughout their lives, suggesting that the wisdom imparted during childhood influences our abilities and understanding in adulthood. The text establishes a framework for exploring how these spiritual dynamics play a role not only in individual lives but also in the broader evolution of humanity.
