<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>First American edition published in 1959.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Written 1904-1908 (CW 11)</strong></p> <p>"Rudolf Steiner shows that the insoluble link between humanity and cosmos is the fundamental basis of evolution. As human beings have participated in the development of the world we know today, so their achievements are directly connected with the ultimate destiny of the universe. In human hands rests the freedom to shape the future course of creation. Knowledge of our exalted origins and of the path we have followed is indispensable if we are to evolve a future worthy of responsible human beings.... Through a study of Steiner's writings, one can come to a clear, reasonable, comprehensive understanding of human beings and their place in the universe." --<strong>Paul Marshall Allen</strong></p> <p>In the best tradition of ancient wisdom literature, <i>Cosmic Memory</i> reconstructs, from the akashic record, events that span the time between the origin of the Earth and the beginning of recorded history. This spiritual research includes a profound investigation of the origins, achievements, and fate of the Atlanteans and Lemurians--the remarkable "lost" root races that developed the first concepts of "good" and "evil," manipulated natural forces, laid the foundation for human legal and ethical systems, and defined and nurtured the distinctive yet complementary powers of men and women that brought humankind, many centuries ago, to its highest artistic, intellectual, and spiritual attainments. </p> <p>Through this discussion of our true origins, <i>Cosmic Memory</i> offers a genuine foundation for our lives, allowing us to realize our real value, dignity, and essence. The reader is shown our human connection with the world around us as well as our highest goals and true destiny.</p> <p>This is a key volume for understanding Rudolf Steiner's early development as a Theosophist and how his ideas, terminology, and formulations during that time fit into the development of his anthroposophic epistemology and Christology. </p> <p><strong>C O N T E N T S: </strong> </p> <p>Introduction by Paul Marshall Allen (1959)<br />Preface by Marie Steiner-von Sivers (1939) </p> <p>1.
