10. The Supernatural Human Being III

Everything that is experience or knowledge of the spiritual world, and everything that is spoken from this spiritual world, is based on the interaction of imagination, inspiration, and intuition. Everything that has been developed in these lectures has come about in such a way that the soul has truly applied methods that are completely unknown to the majority of people today. For the majority of people know nothing at all about these methods, through which one can truly recognize the spiritual, which lives in the environment of our spirit, just as the sensory lives in the environment of our senses. But if one is able to penetrate this spiritual world through imagination, inspiration, and intuition, then one also finds in it the spiritual essence of the human being itself. But one finds the innermost core essence that lives in the human being, that is the human being and that only reveals itself through the outer physical organization, only when one faces oneself from the outside, when one has stepped out of one's own body. One comes to recognize one's innermost being in such a way that it reveals itself only in images, in imaginations. And the outer physical body, in which one was previously enclosed, now becomes itself an imagination of the supersensible, so that one now knows what one was initially enclosed in. In this way, one comes to know the human being as we regard him today, in that he gives rise to the two significant fundamental questions of free will and immortality.
