So wie die alten heiligen Rishis, jene großen Lehrer des alten indischen Volkes, die wunderbare Methode ausgearbeitet haben, die heute noch immer für die Angehörigen des indischen Volkstums ihre Gültigkeit hat, so wie im Anfange des Christentums die christlich-gnostische Methode hinaufführen mußte in die geistigen Gebiete, so muß für den modernen Menschen, für den Menschen, der in unserer heutigen Umwelt lebt, wenn er ganz und gar dieser heutigen Welt angehört und aus dieser die Bedingungen seines Daseins schöpft, eine andere Methode die taugliche sei.
