Our concepts and ideas have to be taken hold of in this centre; more and more of them must be experienced; and our inner life must be increasingly enriched by impressions from the outer world. Man is truly man to the degree in which his Ego becomes richer and more comprehensive. Hence the Ego must seek to enrich itself in the course of succeeding lives; it must become a centre whereby man is not simply part of the outer world but acts as a stimulating force upon it.

But the reverse side of this progress is manifest in what we call selfishness or egoism. If these words were taken as catchwords and it were said that human beings must become selfless, that of course would be bad, as any use of catchwords always is. It is indeed man's task to enrich himself inwardly, but this does not imply a selfish hardening of the Ego and a shutting off of itself with its riches from the world. In that event a man would indeed become richer and richer, but he would lose his connection with the world. His enrichment would signify that the world had no more to give him, nor he the world. In the course of time he would perish, for while striving to enrich his Ego he would keep it all for himself and would become isolated from the world. This caricature of development would impoverish a man's Ego to an increasing extent, for selfishness lays a man inwardly waste. So is it that the Ego, as it works in the three members of the soul, acts as a two-edged sword. On the one hand, it must work to become always richer, a powerful centre from which much can stream forth; but on the other hand it must bring everything it absorbs back into harmony with the outer world. To the same degree that it develops its own resources, it must go out from itself and relate itself to the whole of existence. It must become simultaneously an independent being and a selfless one. Only when the Ego works in these two apparently contradictory directions—when on one side it enriches itself increasingly and on the other side becomes selfless—can human evolution go forward so as to be satisfying for man and health-giving for the whole of existence. The Ego has to work on each of three soul-members in such a way that both sides of human development are kept in balance.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":352,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/58/1909-12-05/p026","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1909-12-05","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 58/1909-12-05/p021","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/58/1909-12-05/p021"}],"bead_confidence":"high","pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"length_check":{"de_words":392,"en_words":352,"ratio":0.9,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

Development occurs in all forms of life, and we find that the three members of the human soul are today at very different stages of evolution. The Sentient Soul, the bearer of our emotions and impulses and of all the feelings that are aroused by direct stimuli from the outer world, is the most strongly developed of the three. But at certain lower stages of evolution the content of the Sentient Soul is experienced in a dull, dim way, for the Ego is not yet fully awake. When a man works inwardly on himself and his soul-life progresses, the Ego becomes more and more clearly conscious of itself. But as far as the Sentient Soul is awake, the Ego is hardly more than a brooding presence within it. The Ego gains in clarity when man advances to a richer life in the Intellectual Soul, and achieves full clarity in the Consciousness Soul. Man then comes to be aware of himself as an individual who stands apart from his environment and is active in gaining objective knowledge of it.

Würde der Mensch das Wort Selbstsucht oder Egoismus nur als ein Schlagwort nehmen und sagen, man muß selbstlos werden, dann wäre das natürlich schlimm, wie jeder Gebrauch eines Schlagwortes als Schlagwort schlimm ist. Des Menschen Aufgabe ist es in der Tat, sich reicher und reicher zu machen; das ist nicht dasselbe, wie selbstsüchtig werden, wenn diese Bereicherung des Ich verknüpft ist damit, daß das Ich sich verhärtet in sich selber, daß es sich abschließt mit seiner Bereicherung. Da wird der Mensch zwar reicher und reicher, aber er wird zugleich den Zusammenhang mit der Welt verlieren, und seine Bereicherung würde bedeuten, daß ihm die Welt und er der Welt nichts mehr geben kann, daß er doch mit der Zeit vergehen würde, weil er, indem er strebt, sein Ich zu bereichern, alles im Ich behält und damit den Zusammenhang mit der Welt verliert.

Es muß eben in demselben Maße, in dem es sich in sich hineinentwickelt, zu gleicher Zeit aus sich herausgehen, mit allem Dasein zusammenfließen.
