If you read my “Key Points of the Social Question”, you will say: “But it is not imagination that you give when you talk about goods; it is not inspiration that you give when you talk about labor, and it is not intuition that you give when you talk about capital. Certainly not. One does not need to ascend to the higher worlds to speak of goods, labor and capital, although it is also very interesting to see the reflections of goods, labor and capital in the higher worlds. But one does not need to ascend. But one only needs to be familiar with what imagination, inspiration and intuition are in order to say the right thing about capital. That is what it is all about. Someone who is not familiar with imagination, inspiration and intuition will not say the right thing about goods, labor and capital. Thus, spiritual science and today's social science are inwardly connected, and there is no other way for today's human being than to ascend from earth consciousness to world consciousness, so that he acquires the ease and also the power of thought that enables him to grasp social life. As long as man only crawls on the earth and basically believes that he is nothing more than what he absorbs from plants, animals and minerals, which is only a little differently composed in him, man does not know himself as the right being that he is. Only then, when he says to himself: the sun and moon work in me — then man knows himself as the right being that he is. World consciousness must be attained in a spiritual way; in a spiritual way, man must recognize how he belongs to a greater part of the world than the earth.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Third Lecture","site_heading":"Cosmic Forces and Social Understanding Through Spiritual Thinking","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Wenn Sie in meinen «Kernpunkten der sozialen Frage» nachlesen, so werden Sie sagen: Das ist aber keine Imagination, die du da gibst, wenn du von Ware redest; es ist keine Inspiration, die du da gibst, wenn du von Arbeit redest, und keine Intuition, die du da gibst, wenn du vom Kapital redest. - Ganz gewiß nicht. Man braucht nicht in die höheren Welten hinaufzusteigen, um Ware, Arbeit und Kapital zu sehen, obwohl das auch sehr interessant ist, die Spiegelbilder der Ware, der Arbeit und des Kapitals in den höheren Welten zu sehen. Aber man braucht nicht hinaufzusteigen. Man muß aber nur bekannt sein mit dem, was Imagination, Inspiration und Intuition sind, damit man das Richtige sagt über das Kapital. Das ist es, um was es sich handelt. Derjenige, der nicht bekannt ist mit Imagination, Inspiration und Intuition, der sagt eben nicht das Richtige über Ware, Arbeit und Kapital. So hängen innerlich zusammen Geisteswissenschaft und die heutige soziale Wissenschaft, und es gibt für den heutigen Menschen keinen anderen Weg als den, aufzusteigen aus dem Erdenbewußtsein zum Weltenbewußtsein so, damit er die Leichtigkeit und auch das Kraftvolle des Denkens bekommt, das ihn befähigt, das soziale Leben zu erfassen. Solange der Mensch nur so hinkriecht auf der Erde und im Grunde genommen glaubt, er sei nichts anderes als dasjenige, was er aus Pflanze, Tier und Mineralien aufnimmt, das sich nur ein bißchen anders zusammensetzt in ihm, so lange weiß sich der Mensch nicht als das richtige Wesen, das er ist. Erst dann, wenn er sich sagt: Sonne und Mond wirken in mir — dann weiß sich der Mensch als das richtige Wesen, das er ist. Das Weltenbewußtsein muß eben auf geistige Art errungen werden; auf geistige Art muß der Mensch erkennen, wie er einem größeren Weltenteil angehört, als die Erde ist.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":304,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/191/1919-10-05/p012"}],"english":["GA 191/1919-10-05/p012"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":304,"en_words":302,"ratio":0.99,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6474,"original_word_count":6251,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Social Understanding from a Spiritual-Scientific Perspective","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA191/English/SOL2024/19191005p01.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.
