Even if not many will read the book, but what comes from it finds its way into many books and lectures and figures as logic. That is why it is so infinitely difficult, in view of the immature thinking of our time, not only to come up with spiritual-scientific thoughts, but also with the positive results of Akasha research, of which I spoke last time. This compelled me to utter the words that have just been used, that our friends should really feel the need to thoroughly and deeply penetrate each other's views – especially when it comes to dealing with things where ordinary thinking can no longer suffice – with the realization of the necessity of a strictly trained thinking. Otherwise it will, of course, take a long time before we can get through to the thinking fog of our time, which behaves so critically, with positive occult research. Of course, this can only be taken up by someone who has first prepared his soul through the results of spiritual science, which can be more deeply imprinted in thought. Only to such people can one speak of things that cannot be reached by mere thought, but which must be related as they result from Akasha research. Not incoherent, although they are only narrations, what I gave as the Fifth Gospel, they are related with what spiritual research has to give in strict thought structure, even if it does not appear so immediately.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Second Munich Lecture","site_heading":null,"date":"1913-12-10","location":null,"word_count":270,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/148/1913-12-10/p011","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:length","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Fifth Gospel III","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA148/English/SOL2024/19131210p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.

Wenn auch nicht viele das Buch lesen werden, aber das, was davon abstammt, wandert in viele Bücher und Vorträge und figuriert als Logik. Daher kommt es ja, daß es so unendlich schwierig ist gegenüber dem unreifen Denken unserer Zeit, nicht nur mit geisteswissenschaftlichen Gedanken zu kommen, sondern mit den positiven Resultaten der Akasha-Forschung, von denen ich das letzte Mal sprach. Das nötigte mich zum Aussprechen der Worte, die eben gebraucht worden sind, daß wirklich von unseren Freunden empfunden werden sollte die Notwendigkeit, sich gründlich und tief zu durchdringen — gerade dann, wenn es sich darum handelt, Dinge zu behandeln, bei denen das gewöhnliche Denken nicht mehr ausreichen kann — mit der Anschauung von der Notwendigkeit eines streng geschulten Denkens. Sonst wird es selbstverständlich noch lange dauern, bis wir dahin kommen, daß wir gegenüber dem Denknebel unserer Zeit, der sich so kritisch gebärdet, mit positiver okkulter Forschung durchkommen. Selbstverständlich kann diese nur einer aufnehmen, der seine Seele durch die Ergebnisse der Geisteswissenschaft, die mehr in Gedanken geprägt werden können, erst vorbereitet hat. Zu solchen nur kann man sprechen von Dingen, in die man mit bloßen Gedanken nicht mehr hineinkommen kann, sondern die erzählt werden müssen, wie sie sich ergeben aus der Akasha-Forschung. Nicht unzusammenhängend - trotzdem es nur Erzählungen sind, was ich als Fünftes Evangelium gab - sind sie mit dem, was in strengem Gedankengefüge auch die Geistesforschung zu geben hat, wenn es auch nicht sogleich so erscheint.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":266,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/148/1913-12-10/p012"}],"english":["GA 148/1913-12-10/p011"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":266,"en_words":270,"ratio":1.02,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6704,"original_word_count":6463,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Fifth Gospel III","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA148/English/SOL2024/19131210p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
