Resumen del Editor

This first full-length book on phenomenology and anthroposophy examines the problems of crossing from Husserl's technique of directly viewing concepts and essences to the full experience of crossing the threshold by means of spiritualizing thinking in the anthroposophical sense. It covers all of the places where Steiner mentions Husserl in his collected works and the early part of the book functions as an introduction to Husserl's phenomenology for the general reader. It demonstrates how to begin in everyday consciousness and then pass into the realm of viewing ideas or essences following Husserl's techniques of imaginative variation and reduction. In the later chapters, there are a variety of studies which lead the reader from everyday consciousness and perception into the phenomenological reduction, and then over the chasm into the real life of living thinking in the etheric world. This demonstration shows that there is a huge difference between phenomenological reflection and actual living thinking or moral intuition. There are also several studies of logic itself which cover all of the transitions from representation to essence to spiritual activity. These studies penetrate into what happens on the concept planes and the etheric world during the processes of thinking, judging, inferring, and creating logical conclusions. The book also contains access to several new spiritual scientific creations and bridges which transform some of the basic logical laws and forms into anthroposophical living pulses and elements in the spiritual world. It therefore contains several doorways for the active reader to enter into the new work in the spiritual world and all that such an approach entails.
