The Temple Legend : Freemasonry and Related Occult Movements

In these unique lectures first given to members of his Esoteric School (1904-14), Steiner throws light on the hidden content of the picture-language of myths, sagas and legends. Pictures, he explains, are the real origin of all things -- the primeval spiritual causes. Steiner discusses pictures and symbols in detail, along with the history and nature of the cultic tradition; Free-masonry and its background; the Rosicrucians; Manichaeism; the Druids; the Prometheus Saga; the Lost Temple; Cain and Abel, and more.
