In this fifth installment of Rudolf Steiner's Anthroposophical Leading Thoughts, we are given the grandest possible narrative of the gradual and arduous birth of freedom as the fruit of an immensely long evolutionary process. We learn how our own view this process changes, from "heavenly history" to "mythological history" and finally to "earthly history." We learn how the calculable is slowly wrested from the vast, incalculable cosmos as the initially restricted sphere of human freedom. We learn how the foundations of this possibility were laid in the distant past through the activity of numerous Hierarchies. And finally, we learn how Lucifer and Ahriman seek to distort this process. It is a vision that is breathtaking in its scope and profundity.
