Es kann heute nicht ausgeführt werden, aber einer tieferen Betrachtung der Entwickelung des Geistes würde sich ergeben, daß alle diejenigen, welche Einheit auf dem Wege nach außen suchten, zunächst im Grunde genommen sich einer Täuschung hingaben, der Täuschung, daß sie das, was nur im Innern mystisch erlebt wird, die Einheit, nach außen warfen wie eine Projektion oder eine Art Schattenbild und glaubten, die Einheit, die sie durch den Weg nach innen fanden, die liege auch durch das Denken erreichbar der Außenwelt zugrunde und wäre dort auch zu finden, Ein gesundes Denken findet aber keine Möglichkeit, in der Außenwelt durch das Denken zur Einheit zu kommen, sondern findet, daß das, was uns da in bunter Mannigfaltigkeit entgegentritt, durch das Zusammenwirken und Einfließen von verschiedenen Wesenheiten, die sich gegenseitig beeinflussen, zustande kommen muß durch Monaden. So führt Mystik zur Einheit, weil das Ich in unserem Innern arbeitet als ein Einheitliches; weil es als Zentrum der Seele arbeitet. So führt der Weg durch die Außenwelt notwendigerweise zur Vielheit, zur Monadologie, sozusagen zur Anschauung, daß viele Geistwesen zusammenwirken müssen, um unser Weltbild zustande zu bringen, weil wir von vornherein als menschliche Beobachter der Welt, wenn wir nach außen blicken, durch eine Vielheit von Organen und eine Vielheit von einzelnen Beobachtungen uns die Erkenntnis der Außenwelt verschaffen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":243,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/59/1910-02-10/p013"}],"english":["GA 59/1910-02-10/p016","GA 59/1910-02-10/p017"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":290,"en_words":230,"ratio":0.79,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.79,"band":"watch","note":"This witness is somewhat shorter than the original.
