The Heavenly Sophia and the Being Anthroposophia
Sergei O. Prokofieff
Translated from Russian by Simon Blaxland de Lange

The culmination of 25 years of working with Rudolf Steiner's spiritual impulse, this publication is based on the author's own experience of a living, supersensible being, who works in the higher worlds for the good of earthly evolution, and who stands behind the science of the spirit known as Anthroposophy. This being, 'Anthroposophia', is not intended as a poetic image or abstract concept, but is described as an actual spiritual entity who ‘brings to human beings of the twentieth century the new revelation of the heavenly Sophia, the divine wisdom’.

In the first part of the book the author describes the path which led him to experience the being Anthroposophia — a path which is described clearly and can be followed by the reader. In the second part, basing his ideas on the few statements Rudolf Steiner made on the subject, Prokofieff tackles the question: What is the place of the living being Anthroposophia in the hierarchic cosmos, and what is her relationship to the Christ, the heavenly Sophia and the Spirit of our Time, the Archangel Michael?

This comprehensive study is the fruit of an intense spiritual striving and will be treasured by those close to Rudolf Steiner's Anthroposophy.
