Description: Before Birth and Beyond Death by Karl König A collection of significant lectures and essays by Karl König, inspired by Rudolf Steiner, arguing that the greatest part of humankind exists beyond this earthly life, and highlighting the importance of our connections with them. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description "We could all benefit positively if we direct our thoughts to all of humankind and consider that birth and death are only portals. We must recognise that the greater part of humankind exists beyond these portals and that we are one with them." -- Karl König Karl König, following Rudolf Steiners teachings, believed that human beings are eternal and that our time in our earthly bodies is just one part of our journey. Our souls exist before birth and continue on beyond death until they are reborn. In these important lectures and essays, König argues that the greatest part of our community exists beyond this earthly life. He calls on us not to neglect our connection with them and encourages us to solicit their guidance so that we might rediscover the values that our society has lost. In this remarkable book, König suggests that by changing our everyday thinking, we can create a bridge across the threshold of death, allowing essential communication between humans in different states of being and uniting humankind to the benefit of all. Author Biography Karl König (1902-66) was well-known as a physician, author and lecturer. He began his work at the Institute of Embryology at the University of Vienna. In 1940 he founded the Camphill Movement in Scotland. Based on Rudolf Steiners insights into human development, the special education schools for children and villages for adults with special needs are now established in many parts of the world. Review For those new to anthroposophy the book may prove both inspiring and insightful, serving as an introduction to Rudolf Steiners lectures on life after death. The earnest and lively expression of Königs thoughts renders this book well worth reading by all who wish to engage with the mystery of life and death.-- Karl König Institute Newsletter, Summer 2021Today, nearly one hundred years later, this sea of materialism has rushed in like a tsunami and it is pertinent that this volume is published now to make available what—like a prophetic spirit—Karl König brought to the world and which has the power to be helpful and even life-preserving in these darkened times...
