Publisher's Synopsis
""Haeckel, The Riddle Of The Universe And Theosophy"" is a book written by Rudolf Steiner, a renowned Austrian philosopher, and founder of Anthroposophy. The book is a critical analysis of the evolutionary theory proposed by Ernst Haeckel, a German biologist, who argued that all living organisms share a common ancestry and that evolution is driven by natural selection.Steiner, on the other hand, advocates for theosophy, a spiritual philosophy that seeks to understand the nature of reality and the purpose of human existence. In this book, Steiner challenges Haeckel's theory and argues that it is incomplete and fails to account for the spiritual dimension of life.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a detailed critique of Haeckel's theory, while the second part presents Steiner's own views on theosophy and its relevance to the understanding of the universe and human existence.Overall, ""Haeckel, The Riddle Of The Universe And Theosophy"" is a thought-provoking book that challenges conventional scientific beliefs and offers a unique perspective on the nature of reality and the purpose of human existence. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, spirituality, and the mysteries of the universe.THIS 62 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Three Essays on Haeckel and Karma, by Rudolf Steiner.
