If we are patient and carry out the exercises long enough and in the right way, we shall see that we are left with something which we know for certain is entirely independent of our own inner experience and has no subjective colouring, and yet shows by its objective being that it is akin to the centre of the human being, the ego. Thus in order to reach intuitive knowledge we go out from ourselves and yet come to something which is closely akin to our inner being. So we rise from our own inward experience to the spiritual, which we no longer experience within ourselves but in the external world. Thus on the path of spiritual science, through Imagination, Inspiration and Intuition, we overcome the shadow-sides both of pluralism and ordinary mysticism.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"III.

Da müssen wir etwas tun, was der gewöhnlichen Naturwissenschaft ähnlich ist, wir müssen hinausgehen in die Außenwelt.

Hier muß der Mensch die Aufmerksamkeit von seiner eigenen Tätigkeit abwenden, er muß vergessen, was er getan hat, um das Rosenkreuz zustande zu bringen. Wenn er aber Geduld hat, wenn er seine Übungen lange genug und richtig ausführt, so wird er sehen, daß ihm etwas zurückbleibt, von dem er ganz gewiß weiß, daß es von seinem eigenen inneren Erlebnis absolut unabhängig ist, nicht subjektiv gefärbt ist, sondern ihn hinaufführt zu etwas, was von seiner subjektiven Persönlichkeit unabhängig ist, was aber durch seine objektive Wesenheit zeigt, daß es gleich ist dem, was das Zentrum des menschlichen Wesens, des menschlichen Ich ist. In der intuitiven Erkenntnis gehen wir, um sie zu erreichen, aus uns heraus und kommen doch zu etwas, was unserem eigenen inneren Wesen gleich ist.
