Official synopsis Publisher
“We must eradicate root and branch any fear and dread in our soul concerning the future that is coming towards us…. We must develop composure with regard to all the feelings and sensations we have about the future; we must anticipate with absolute equanimity whatever may be coming towards us, thinking only that whatever it may be will be brought to us by the wisdom-filled guidance of the universe.” —Rudolf Steiner
Based on brief, pithy quotations from Rudolf Steiner’s collected works, the “spiritual perspectives” in this volume present core concepts on the subject of fear. These brief extracts do not claim to provide exhaustive treatment of the subject, but open up approaches to the complexity of Steiner’s extraordinary world of ideas. Some readers will find these fragments sufficient stimulus in themselves, while others will use the source references as signposts towards deeper study and understanding.
