Das Ich drückt seinen Stempel der Einheit auf, wenn man den göttlichen Geist ansieht als Mystiker. Das Schauen nach der Außenwelt führt zur Vielheit der Monaden. Aber nur unser Anschauen und die Art und Weise, wie die Außenwelt uns entgegentritt, führt zur Vielheit, und daher schauen Leibniz und Herbart die Untergründe der Welt in einer Vielheit. Das, was sich durch ein tieferes Forschen aus dieser Tatsache ergibt, ist, daß Einheit und Vielheit Begriffe sind, die gar nicht angewendet werden dürfen da, wo man eigentlich den göttlich-geistigen Weltengrund vermutet; daß Einheit und Vielheit etwas sind, was uns gar nicht dienen soll zur Charakteristik des göttlich-geistigen Weltengrundes; daß dieser göttlich-geistige Weltengrund nicht dadurch charakterisiert werden kann, wenn er in seiner Wesenheit charakterisiert werden soll, daß wir sagen, er sei ein einheitlicher, oder daß wir sagen, er sei ein monadologischer, ein vielheitlicher. Sondern wir müssen sagen, er ist erhaben über das, was Einheit und Vielheit zunächst sind; Vielherit und Einheit sind Begriffe, die gar nicht dahin reichen, wo das Göttlich-Geistige zu fassen ist.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":226,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/59/1910-02-10/p014"}],"english":["GA 59/1910-02-10/p018","GA 59/1910-02-10/p019"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":226,"en_words":165,"ratio":0.73,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","anchors","reader"],"reader_german":["GA 59/1910-02-10/p014"],"reader_part":true},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.79,"band":"watch","note":"This witness is somewhat shorter than the original.
