It was particularly emphasized that a kind of powerlessness occurs in relation to the knowledge of the spiritual world in the case of that soul which does not take its starting-point from moral excellence, from moral mood. Such a soul will show a certain stupor for the higher worlds and will only be able to reveal that which has been seen as if through a kind of stupor, and thus it will be falsified. The connection between the moral state of mind at the starting point and what the soul can attain when it really enters the spiritual worlds through imagination, inspiration and intuition has already been pointed out. But we can characterize the significance of the moral state of mind for the higher levels of knowledge even more precisely.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"13.

Eine solche Seele wird für die höheren Welten eine gewisse Betäubung zeigen und nur dasjenige aus diesen höheren Welten offenbaren können, was eben wie durch eine Art Betäubung gesehen, was also verfälscht ist. So ist schon hingewiesen worden auf den Zusammenhang von moralischer Seelenstimmung im Ausgangspunkte mit dem, was die Seele erlangen kann, wenn sie durch Imagination, Inspiration und Intuition wirklich in die geistigen Welten eintritt.
