Schure takes the reader on a spiritual adventure of extraordinary depth and intensity as he tells the story of the esoteric origin of humanity and the earth. In a moment of cosmic consciousness, Schure experienced the spiritual light in which he found the key to the secret history of humanity. From that moment of recognition, he wrote this book. Steiner considered Schure to be one of the best guides for finding the path to the spirit in our day.
