Among the visualizations that appear, the ego visualization is one. True, we found that the ego visualization leads to a conception of the ego, but aside from that we could learn nothing about the ego. What we did learn, however, is that the ego visualization, though having the same character as other visualizations entering from the physical world, cannot originate in the outer world, the physical world. This being the case, and since reasoning, which is one of the elements of the soul life, must be applied to the ego, it follows that the ego must enter the soul life from the other side. This is conclusive evidence that just as the conception “red” enters the soul life from without and is then encompassed by a verdict, so something in the ego appears from the other side and acts in the same way.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"4.

Urteilen ist eine Seelentätigkeit. Seelentätigkeiten entstehen im Seelenbinnenleben, innerlich. Sie führen zu Vorstellungen. Im Bereiche dieser Vorstellungen taucht auch auf die Ich-Vorstellung. Aus der Ich-Vorstellung haben wir aber nichts über das Ich selbst lernen können. Aber eines zeigt sich jetzt: Nichts von äußeren Eindrücken kann uns zur Ich-Vorstellung bringen. Mit andern Worten: Die Ich-Vorstellung stammt nicht aus der physischen Welt. Da sie also nicht aus der physischen Welt stammt, sonst aber ganz den Charakter hat wie Vorstellungen, die aus der physischen Welt stammen, und da doch das Urteilen in der Seele, das eben zu den elementaren Inhalten des Seelenlebens gehört, auf das Ich angewendet wird, so muß das Ich von woanders her in das Seelenleben hereinkommen. Das heißt, wir haben damit zur Evidenz gezeigt, daß geradeso wie die Vorstellung «Rot» von der äußeren Welt in die Seele hereinkommt und vom Ich durch das Urteil umspannt wird, so von der andern Seite her etwas in die Seele hereinkommt, das vom Urteil umspannt wird. Nehmen wir den Eindruck «Rot» und umspannen ihn mit einem Urteil, so haben wir «Rot ist». Nehmen wir in ähnlicher Weise das Ich und sagen «Ich ist», so nehmen wir einen Eindruck aus derjenigen Außenwelt, die wir die geistige Welt nennen, auf und umspannen ihn mit einem Urteil. «Rot» als solches entspricht den Daseinsformen der physischen Welt. «Rot ist» ist ein Urteil und kann nur innerhalb des Seelenlebens zustande kommen. «Ich» ist eine Tatsache, wie «Rot» eine Tatsache ist, und es kann nur in das Seelenleben eintreten, das heißt, von einem Urteil umspannt werden, wenn das Urteil von der andern Seite der Seele entgegenkommt und das Ich umspannt mit dem Urteil und sagt «Ich bin» oder «Ich ist». «Ich ist» ist nur die Umkehrung des «Ich bin» nach der andern Seite. Der Sprachgenius ist eben sehr gescheit und drückt die Dinge sehr prägnant aus.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":319,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/115/1910-11-04/p039"}],"english":["GA 115/1910-11-04/p042","GA 115/1910-11-04/p043"],"method":"reader","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":319,"en_words":324,"ratio":1.02,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 115/1910-11-04/p039"],"reader_part":true},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.69,"band":"short","note":"This witness is materially shorter than the original (below 75%).
