Rudolf Steiner - The Four Temperaments

This is my third audiobook recording. I'll be reading another short booklet from Rudolf Steiner. I am doing this for three reasons:

1. I was inspired by the recorded readings of Josh Reeves (http://www.theglobalreality.com/) and Dale Brunsvold (http://www.rudolfsteineraudio.com/).
2. Being of a silent and introspective nature, I'm hoping these readings will help strengthen and steady my voice which has become rather weak from lack of use.
3. Commitment to transmute the consumptive impulse into something creative.

This torrent contains the complete booklet, "The Four Temperaments" by Rudolf Steiner.

"The two streams in the human being combine to produce what is commonly known as a person's temperament. Our inner self and our inherited traits commingle in it. Temperament is an intermediary between what connects us to an ancestral line and what we bring with us.... Temperament strikes a balance between the eternal and the ephemeral." -Rudolf Steiner

From personal spiritual insight, Rudolf Steiner renews and broadens the ancient teaching of the four temperaments. He explains how each person's mixture of temperaments is shaped, usually with one dominating. Steiner provides lively descriptions of the passive, comfort-seeking phlegmatic; the fickle, flitting sanguine; the pained, gloomy melancholic; and the fiery, assertive choleric. He also offers practical suggestions for teachers and parents in addressing the differing manifestations of the temperaments in children, as well as advice intended for adults' personal development.
