With the man of the present age, all this goes on within the lines of the human Form. But this human Form itself is through and through a thing of Spirit. Strange indeed, and solemn! With physical senses in the physical world to behold a Spirit-thing in Man's Form! To anyone who possesses spiritual sight, this human Form appears in fact as a real Imagination, come down into the physical world. To see Imaginations, one must go out of the physical into the neighbouring spiritual world; and then one sees how similar the human Form is to these Imaginations.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"XVII.

Diese selbst aber ist ein durch und durch Geistiges. Feierlich sollte es stimmen, ein Geistiges mit physischen Sinnen in der physischen Welt als Menschengestalt wahrzunehmen. Für den, der geistig schauen kann, liegt dieses so, daß er in der Menschengestalt eine wirkliche Imagination sieht, die in die physische Welt heruntergestiegen ist. Will man Imaginationen schauen, muß man aus der physischen Welt in die nächste geistige übertreten.
