The Spiritual Event of the Twentieth Century : An Imagination, The Occult Significance of the 12 Years from 1933 to 1945 in the Light of Spiritual Science by Yeshayahu Ben-Aharon

On the eve of the 33rd anniversary of its publication, The Spiritual Event of the Twentieth Century remains an exceptional work. On the one hand, the author offers a pioneering, first-hand testimony of Rudolf Steiner's prophetic statements regarding the `new Christ Revelation'. On the other, he presents his own findings, based on Imaginative consciousness, of `the Spiritual Event of the Twentieth Century'. Ben-Aharon gives a unique account of events that took place in the spiritual world during the fateful twelve-year period from 1933 to 1945 - encompassing the rise to power of National Socialism and culminating in the end of the Second World War. Through coming to a fully conscious understanding of this `Spiritual Event', we can gain the courage needed to renew and enliven the spiritual science of anthroposophy as `the universal human language of our age'. In addition to his description of the `Century's Event', the author discusses `The New Soul Faculties', `The Relation Between Supersensible and Physical Events', `The Rebirth of Anthroposophy since the End of the Twentieth Century' and `Anthroposophy as the Living Language of the Present'. His words have a particular significance for the grouping of souls which the spiritual scientist Rudolf Steiner referred to as the `Michael School'. This third edition features a thoroughly revised and extended Preface, Introduction and auxiliary chapters - updated out of the signs of the present time.
