Book Review by Bobby Matherne of: "An Outline of Occult Science" by Rudolf Steiner + "The Deed of Christ and the Opposing Spiritual Powers"

"Steiner carefully explains how the human being with its newly developed ego is the most intricate, delicate instrument for observing the realm of the spirit, in fact it is the only such instrument available.
... No one who has read Steiner's works could possibly claim that his subjective reports of a spiritual dimension are delusions of a weak or suggestive mind. If the human body is the only instrument capable of exploring the spiritual dimension, then all such reports must be subjective, but that doesn't make them un-objective. Steiner describes how to tell the difference between reality and delusions in viewing the spiritual world.";

"... the laws of nature reveal themselves only to the thoughts fructified by intuition of the more highly developed man.":

In light of the truth of this (quote by Rudolf Steiner) we can now see that "the Laws of Nature" were well-recognized by the "Founding Fathers" when they subscribed to "The Declaration of Independence". Therefore we do justice to our own development by recognizing the same "self-evident Truths". Our very "Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness" depend upon this recognition!

"... A man who does not concern himself with the spiritual world, who does not instill into his soul what can flow from spiritual science, is subject to the forces of physical heredity. Only by steeping his whole being in what spiritual science can communicate to him does he gain mastery over the forces of heredity, regards it as a factor of no essential significance and becomes the victor of everything that the powers of hindrance place in his way in the external world. ...":

Footnotes:
"...Owing to negligence of the midwife the child was bleeding almost to death. It was questionable how long it would survive. If this birth had been normal the child would have been baptized a few days later in the church of Kraljevec, but now an emergency baptism was called for. However, the schedule of the church of Kraljevec could not accommodate this emergency. So the child was carried two miles through wintry February cold and snow to the church of Draskovec, a neighboring village. There it was baptized on February 27, and named:
Rudolfus Josephus Laurentius Steiner
or, as we would say:
Rudolf Joseph Laurence Steiner.":
