You will find it described in detail in my book, *The Riddle of Man*. This mode of thought must continue to develop. The men of the fifth post-Atlantean epoch, however, must not merely behold reality. They must be able to live with reality. They must get busy, like Goethe, and, working in quite a different way from that of the materialistic physicists, really make such use of their laboratory apparatus that it produces the primal phenomenon for them. They will then have to devise some way of getting the primal phenomenon into practical life. As you know, it is at home in, and holds sway throughout, nature. The intentions of humanity that come from free imaginations will have to be included in this primal phenomenon of nature. On the one hand, men will have to direct their gaze quite selflessly to the outer world to work in it and to gain knowledge of it. On the other, by powerful application of their personalities, they will have to bring it all into inner movement in order to find the imaginations for outer activity and outer knowledge. Gradually, the consciousness soul and its culture will achieve this transformation.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Sie können in Goethes Schriften und in meinen Erklärungen dazu über dieses Urphänomen viel gesprochen finden. Es ist die reine Anschauung der Wirklichkeit, dieses Urphänomen. Aber Goethe hat nicht nur den ersten Anstoß gegeben zu einer visionsfreien sinnlichen Beobachtung im Urphänomen, sondern er hat auch den ersten Anstoß gegeben zur freien Imagination; denn gerade das, was wir in seinem «Faust» gefunden haben, wenn es auch noch nicht weit ist in geisteswissenschaftlicher Beziehung, wenn es auch noch in gewisser Weise instinktiv nur im Verhältnis zur Geisteswissenschaft ist, es ist doch der erste Anstoß des freien imaginativen Lebens, denn es ist nicht bloß eine Phantasiewelt. Wir haben gesehen, wie tief wirklich diese Phantasiewelt ist, die in freien Imaginationen in diesem wunderbaren Faust-Drama entwickelt wird. So allerdings haben wir dem Urphänomen gegenüber das, was Goethe das typische intellektuelle Anschauen nennt. Sie können in meinem Buche «Vom Menschenrätsel» darüber Genaueres lesen. Das muß sich immer weiter und weiter ausbilden. Auf der einen Seite muß der fünfte nachatlantische Zeitraum in der Wirklichkeit nicht nur anschauen, sondern mit der Wirklichkeit leben können, so daß er abseits von den materialistischen Physikern so wie Goethe etwa hantiert in seinem physikalischen Kabinette, um die Instrumente so zu gebrauchen, daß sie ihm die Urphänomene geben. So muß man sich eine Hantierung auch in bezug auf das praktische Leben denken, welche dieses praktische Leben mit dem Urphänomen durchdringt, welche also in der Natur so zu Hause ist, daß die Natur von dem Urphänomen aus beherrscht wird, und eingeschlossen in dieses Urphänomen der Natur müssen werden die Intentionen des Menschengeschlechtes, die aus der freien Imagination kommen. Auf der einen Seite gewissermaßen selbstlos den Blick auf die Außenwelt zur Erkenntnis und zur Arbeit zu richten, und auf der anderen Seite das Ganze selbst mit stärkster Einsetzung der Persönlichkeit in innerliche Regung und Bewegung zu bringen, um die Imaginationen zu finden für die äußere Tätigkeit und äußere Erkenntnis, das wird die Bewußtseinsseele und das Kulturleben der Bewußtseinsseele nach und nach in die Wirklichkeit verwandeln.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":349,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/171/1916-09-17/p016"}],"english":["GA 171/1916-09-17/p018","GA 171/1916-09-17/p019"],"method":"reader","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":349,"en_words":366,"ratio":1.05,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 171/1916-09-17/p016"],"reader_part":true},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8831,"original_word_count":8490,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Gilbert Church, Frédéric Kozlik and Stewart C.
