If you have been concerned about the welfare of our planet, in our challenging and transformative times--and if you harbor the hope that you can help bring about a truly better world based in an illuminated spiritual level--then this book is for you.
Rudolf Steiner was a brilliant late 19th-century Austrian visionary whose astonishing spiritual perceptivity brought about the Waldorf Schools, architectural developments, biodynamic agriculture, and much more. But because the books and lectures based on his profoundly forward thinking were written down by others in German, and then translated into overly stilted English, even dedicated Steinerians have often found his books difficult to understand.
And for someone new to Steiner? Not a piece of cake! A pity, since the books contain so much worth reading.
Enter Eliza Joslin Kendall. Raised with Steiner's ideas from a young age, she found in them a spiritual lodestar for our time. "When I read Steiner," she writes, "I just knew that I knew all that he was talking about, as if I had read it before. His writings resonated so deeply within me that I immediately felt called to take Steiner and his philosophy to the public in a way that can be taken in by the soul, not just the mind. I continue to feel that this is greatly needed. Especially in today's world."
Why "today's world"? Because being able to read Steiner in a more comprehensible form gives depth, history, and (the best kind of) mystery for how we got to where we are now--where we actually are at this time--what we need to do to become the most authentic spiritual beings we can be. Humanity, says Steiner, has been evolving in its relationship to the Divine since early epochs and civilizations; and the earth has been evolving along with it. This evolution is intimately connected with the incarnation of Christ-Jesus and the evolution of our relation to the Divine, the I AM as an individual.
In The Gospel of St. John, Steiner helps us see what we have been being prepared for, and how to engage with the spiritual forces that direct this transformation. We are here to be the planet of love. Yes, our very own planet, this earth that is going through the sometimes alarming birthing pains of transformation, is meant to be the planet of Love.
If you've ever thought, "Isn't there some reason I'm here on earth at this time? Isn't there something real that I can do to help?" reading this book will reveal a fascinating epic that you too are part of. Whatever your religious beliefs or background, Steiner's Gospel of St. John via Eliza Kendall can shift your perspective of yourself, the human community, and the planet, which has the resources--and the evolutionary mandate--to actually become the planet of Love.
