Symbols are, as expressly emphasized, [gap] everything is real. What matters is that everything that is found is translated into a truly artistic form. And that's the strange thing about these columns - and it's repeated in there, there are six columns on each side, so that there are twelve in total - the most important thing is that these columns are a work of art in their entire formal development. So please note that it is not the form that is the work of art, but the work of art is created by you being in it yourself. You will be compelled to grasp the actual course along the forms. If you try to take in the whole with your gaze, then you will be forced to let your gaze describe certain forms, to give your gaze certain movements. And by going through the evolution, the development, with your eyes, by artistically working through the forms with the preceding [forms], just as one has the form in the melody and grasps a tone together with reference to the preceding one. By experiencing the whole inwardly, you create for this [aspect of the construction] what is present as an artistic construction. [You yourself must be the artistic light. Just as the musical work of art does not consist of trumpets and eardrums and so on, but is actually built up first, it should also be noted here that the work of art in relation to the architecture is actually created in such a way that you form it yourself by generating the artistic form within it. And the pictorial forces in this picture are definitely conditioned in the mysteries of the world.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"76.

Symbole sind, wie ausdrücklich betont, [Lücke] Alles ist wirklich. Darauf kommt es an, dass all das, was gefunden wird, in wirklich künstlerische Form umgesetzt wird. Und das ist das Merkwürdige bei diesen Säulen - und es wiederholt sich das da drinnen, es sind auf jeder Seite sechs Säulen, sodass man im Ganzen zwölf hat -, das Wichtigste ist dieses, dass bei diesen Säulen in ihrer ganzen Formentwicklung das Kunstwerk ist. Also ich bitte das wohl zu beachten, nicht die Form ist das Kunstwerk, sondern das Kunstwerk entsteht, indem Sie selbst darin sein werden. Sie werden genötigt sein, den eigentlichen Verlauf zu fassen entlang der Formen. Wenn Sie versuchen, das Ganze mit dem Blick aufzunehmen, dann werden Sie in die Notwendigkeit versetzt sein, den Blick gewisse Formen beschreiben zu lassen, dem Blick gewisse Bewegungen zu geben. Und indem Sie mit Ihren Augen die Evolution, die Entwicklung durchmachen, indem Sie die Formen mit den vorgehenden [Formen] künstlerisch durchwirken, wie man in der Melodie die Form hat und einen Ton mit Bezug auf den vorgehenden zusammen auffasst. Indem Sie das Ganze innerlich erleben, schaffen Sie für diesen [Aspekt des Baus], was als künstlerischer Bau vorliegt. [Sie müssen selbst] das künstlerische Licht sein. Wie ja auch das musikalische Kunstwerk nicht besteht in Trompeten und Trommelfellen und so weiter, sondern eigentlich erst sich aufbaut, so ist es auch hier zu beachten, dass eigentlich das Kunstwerk in Bezug auf die Architektur so entsteht, dass Sie es selbst bilden, indem Sie darinnen die künstlerische Form generieren.
