The Connection Between Humans and the Spiritual World

By keeping this in mind, we must be clear that our time, according to what spiritual science is supposed to bring to humanity, has real, genuine longings, but that these real longings are still being satisfied in many ways that are most mistaken. There are a number of people today who have completely overcome the prejudice that was widespread among people in the middle, and even in the last third of the 19th century, that everything spiritual can be explained solely by physical, physiological effects. But half-truths or quarter-truths often have a much worse effect than complete errors. And such half-truths or quarter-truths underlie what is so often referred to today as analytical psychology or psychoanalysis.
