Thus, everything around the student became alive for him; it became imagination. Wherever he walked through fields and meadows, the images in his soul were at work. This unleashed an inner power in him, and he gradually began to see behind beings and things. When you hear it described like this, it seems almost unbelievable. When the student was guided by the teacher into the imaginative world, he was not only introduced to thinking, but also to the feelings and impulses that flowed from the soul of the creator of the world. He was introduced to a world of beings. And then it continues from the development of feeling to the development of will.
