Plato As A Mystic

By Rudolf Steiner

Book Overview

""Plato As A Mystic"" is a philosophical book written by Rudolf Steiner, a renowned Austrian philosopher and founder of anthroposophy. The book explores the mystical aspects of the works of Plato, one of the most influential philosophers in Western thought. Steiner argues that Plato's ideas were not just intellectual concepts, but rather spiritual experiences that he had undergone through his own mystical practices. He delves into Plato's philosophy of the Forms, the concept of the soul, and the nature of reality, exploring how these ideas can be understood through a mystical lens. Steiner also discusses the role of the philosopher in society and the importance of spiritual development in understanding the world. ""Plato As A Mystic"" is a thought-provoking work that offers a unique perspective on one of the most important figures in Western philosophy.THIS 36 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Christianity as Mystical Fact and the Mysteries of Antiquity, by Rudolf Steiner.
