We live in a time when many are striving to develop inner faculties because they recognize the necessity of true spiritual development.

"Even before we are called to the stages of higher development we can prepare ourselves by understanding the way and the truth of the unfolding schooling we shall take. Recognizing the power and place of the inner exercises and meditations means we work with them in a way that they bear the fruits of genuine transformation." -- Lisa Romero

This book gives direct insight into the workings of the inner exercises and meditations and their intended results on a number of levels. It also speaks about the well-trodden path of inner development, helping us to make sense of the experiences we encounter as we each move through the various stages of consciousness.

Working with the content supports the clarity for the individuals that are striving to make headway on the path and are experiencing encounters in inner realms. It also helps us understand the others' striving and experiences on their journey.

"The future of such spiritual esoteric movements as ours will depend more and more upon the realization that the spiritual development of humankind is a necessity." -- Rudolf Steiner
