Who is the Christ? What is the 'Sun-spirit'? How should we understand the person of Jesus in relation to the Cosmic Christ, or even to the Holy Trinity? In a majestic overview of Rudolf Steiner's extensive references to Christ and Jesus, originally dispersed throughout his many writings and lectures, Oskar Kürten creates a mutually reconcilable and coherent text. We are invited to accompany the author as he attempts to comprehend the unimaginably vast enigma of Christ's appearance on Earth. The results of his work can sometimes be overwhelming, but as Kürten points out: 'humanity is always advancing in its intellectual and spiritual culture, and each step poses higher demands on our capacity to understand'. In a volume comprising three previously-untranslated booklets, composed originally as study material for people conversant with the fundamentals of anthroposophy, Mystery of the Christ gives numerous pointers to great mysteries, inviting readers to penetrate ever more deeply into the inexhaustible subject-matter. As Kürten states, this approach enables us 'again and again to find surprisingly new insights into the mysterious interconnections in which Christ's entry into earth-existence and the Mystery of Golgotha are placed'.
