A survey of recent history reveals a gloomy picture: an ongoing series of conflicts, wars and general turmoil. As a result of all this, the human emotional landscape has become littered with angry, bitter, and vengeful feelings. The modern justice system, preoccupied as it is with finding and proving guilt, does little to remedy this tragic situation. However, many individuals and groups are seeking ways to break the never-ending cycle of recrimination.  When faced with the question of what we can do to change and improve the world, one of the most radical and challenging answers is to learn to begin forgiving others for what they have done to us. In this powerful and moving book, Prokofieff shows how the forces that lead to forgiveness can be developed consciously and freely. Without preaching a morality of forgiveness, he sets before us the spiritual facts that speak for themselves.  From Tsarist Russia and the Nazi concentration camps to the early battles in the history of the Anthroposophical Society, the author offers striking examples of those who have been able to forgive frequently terrible crimes. He provides a multilayered analysis, pointing to the beneficial consequences of every act of forgiveness. As he develops his theme, the importance of forgiving—not simply for personal salvation, but for the advancement and benefit of human evolution—is revealed in all its healing truth.

The Twelve Holy Nights and the Spiritual Hierarchies

This publication- the culmination of working for 25 years with Rudolf Steiner's spiritual impulse- 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, that 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 shown to be an actual spiritual entity 'which brings to human beings of the twentieth century the new revelation of the heavenly Sophia, the divine wisdom.

In this concise study Sergei Prokofieff addresses the nature of spiritual scientific research as well as a number of central Christological themes:The significance of our individual relationship to the Christ; Taking personal responsibility for our misdeeds while Christ takes upon himself the “Sin of the World” (John 1:29); The spiritual-scientific approach compared to religion and faith; The modern path of initiation outlined by Rudolf Steiner and the corresponding direction of development into higher stages of consciousness, progressively freed from physical sensory impressions; The moral-spiritual “Sun” nature of the Christ being; The Moon sphere and the obstacles it presents to achieving clarity in spiritual perceptions; The nature of matter and substance in relation to the Grail chalice; The role of Christ in the “Raising of Lazarus” and the question of the magical contravention of natural laws; The nature of the Resurrected Phantom of Christ and the paths Rudolf Steiner described toward achieving an individual relation to it.A superficial assessment of this work by Sergei Prokofieff would believe it to be directed at individual personalities. A deeper consideration, however, reveals the value of this book as a guide to measuring one’s own spiritual perceptions against the rigorous criteria laid out by Rudolf Steiner and for maintaining the discernment needed to recognize the non-validity of the numerous spurious spiritual claims surrounding us today.“Time-Journeys”: A Counter-Image to Anthroposophical Spiritual Research is a response to the book by Peter Tradowsky, The Stigmata: Destiny as a Question of Knowledge, which was itself a response to the appendix, “The Forces of the Phantom and Stigmatization” by Sergei Prokofieff in The Mystery of the Resurrection in the Light of Anthroposophy (Temple Lodge, 2010).

A Consideration from an Anthroposophical Point of View The reflections in this book by Peter Selg and Sergei Prokofieff on the soul-spiritual, ethical, and medical-therapeutic issues surrounding physician-assisted suicide (and suicide as such) will provoke one's thought, feeling, and volition. Its inspiration arises from both Rudolf Steiner and the Hippocratic Oath. Peter Selg begins by showing how Rudolf Steiner views the principle of life as immanent spirit and the living medium of the “I,” or individuality and as inviolable and wise beyond our understanding. It is the sacred task of healing always to attend to, honor, and serve life in this sense―to affirm, enhance, and strengthen the life forces of the sick. As Rudolf Steiner puts it, “The will to heal must always function as therapeutically as possible...even when one thinks that the sick person is incurable.” These words were spoken before the full consummation of materialist, technologically enhanced medicine, but Rudolf Steiner, as Peter Selg shows, was well aware of the dangers related to the direction of modern medicine. Sergei Prokofieff links the initiatory origins of Hippocratic medicine in the Mysteries with the return of the Mystery origin of medicine and healing in Anthroposophic medicine. Turning to Steiner’s spiritual research, he considers suicide to be an “illness” of our time and examines the spiritual consequences of suicide for the after-death experiences of those who have taken their own lives―specifically, that suicide results in the soul’s profound disorientation. He goes on to show how suicide makes the after-death experience of Christ infinitely more difficult, as it does the “resurrection of the spirit” and the relation to the spiritual world. Far from being a “free” act, Prokofieff concludes, suicide is quite the opposite. Anyone seeking insight into suicide will find in this book a profound and esoteric introduction to this controversial problem.
