selection principle. Texts are listed when they treat the mysteries, under that name or as mystery centres, schools, sites or temples. In the volumes on the mysteries (GA 8, 87, 106, 144, 180, 232 and 233a) every text that treats them is listed. Not listed are texts on the Mystery of Golgotha alone, on the modern path of initiation without the mysteries, or on the mysteries of existence in the everyday sense. Of the Mystery Dramas, the scenes set in a temple of the mysteries are listed.
usage. This entry lists where Rudolf Steiner's collected works (the Gesamtausgabe, GA) treat the subject. It contains no quotations: the headings, scope lines and notes are this index's wording, not Steiner's. Under each heading Steiner's own books (GA 1 to 28) come first, then articles and notes (GA 29 to 46), then lectures in date order. A text is listed when it treats the subject or the point its heading names, not when the word merely occurs. A paragraph number marks the one passage that is the point; otherwise the reference is the whole chapter or lecture. A book's defining paragraph is also listed in German where the German edition numbers it differently. A lecture with more than one English translation is listed once. Texts with no English translation are listed in German, and so are the esoteric lessons (GA 266), whose German is the original record; each reference's witnesses name every language the site serves it in. A reference marked as listeners' notes was written down by others (a listener, a newspaper, the minutes), one marked report by others is another person's account of a meeting or event, one marked mixed sources comes from a volume that holds both listeners' records and texts in Steiner's own hand, and one marked may be abridged is a translation shorter than the German. Read a passage before saying what it contains.
