In this profound study, Richard Seddon gathers essential though frequently overlooked quotations from the work of Rudolf Steiner. Steiner made no claim to divine inspiration, but described how―through the vigorous discipline of inner development―a capacity for spiritual-scientific research could be acquired. Steiner undertook research into many of the incidents recorded in John’s Gospel and reported his results in lectures across Europe. In compiling Steiner’s various statements, the book shows that John’s Gospel not only gives a historical account, but also represents a path of personal development toward initiation.
