In Troxler's view, man has faith - faith, which, in the realm of religious belief, supports humanity's highest spiritual supports, but which also plays a major role in other areas of human life: faith. Man has this faith in his soul life. I am not just repeating Troxler's words, but speaking as one would have to think if one took in what Troxler said and developed it a little further. This power of belief is something that the outer physical body must have, something that can be grasped by the soul just as it arises directly in the soul, even without the development of higher cognitive powers. But behind this belief lives, hidden in the soul, [a higher organ of knowledge, so that belief is, as it were, for ordinary daily life, the living out of this higher organ of knowledge. Troxler calls what lives behind faith: spiritual hearing, the supersensible, spiritual hearing. So that in Troxler's sense, faith is to be imagined as the beautiful that flows in from an unconscious or subconscious spiritual part of the soul, which drives faith to the surface. But if it is developed itself, it becomes a spiritual ear that would become hearing in the spiritual world. Spiritual hearing means perceiving in the same way as the sensory ear perceives external sounds that live in the air.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"11.

Da hat der Mensch nach der Anschauung Troxlers den Glauben - den Glauben, der auf dem Gebiet der religiösen Anschauung die höchsten Geistesstützen der Menschheit trägt, der aber auch im übrigen Menschenleben eine große Rolle spielt: den Glauben. Diesen Glauben hat der Mensch - ich spreche jetzt nicht bloß Worte Troxlers nach, sondern ich spreche so, wie man etwa denken muss, wenn man das, was Troxler gesprochen hat, in sich aufnimmt, es ein wenig weiterwebt -, diesen Glauben hat der Mensch in seinem Seelenleben. Diese Glaubenskraft ist etwas, was das äußere Leibliche haben muss, etwas, was so, wie es unmittelbar in der Seele auftritt, von der Seele erfasst werden kann, auch ohne dass höhere Erkenntniskräfte entwickelt werden. Aber hinter diesem Glauben lebt, verborgen in der Seele, [ein höheres Erkenntnisorgan, sodass der Glaube gleichsam für das gewöhnliche Tagesleben ist das Ausleben dieses höheren Erkenntnisorgans. Was hinter dem Glauben lebt, nennt Troxler]: das seelische Hören, das übersinnliche, das seelische Hören. Sodass man sich in Troxlers Sinn den Glauben gleichsam vorzustellen hat als das Schöne, das hereinflutet aus einem unbewusst oder unterbewusst Geistigen der Seele, das den Glauben an die Oberfläche treibe. Wenn es aber selber entwickelt wird, so wird es zu einem Geistesohr, das in der geistigen Welt zum Hören würde. Geistig Hören heißt, so wahrnehmen, wie das sinnliche Ohr die äußeren, in der Luft lebenden Töne wahrnimmt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":275,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/70b/1916-02-21/p068"}],"english":["GA 70b/1916-02-21/p068"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":275,"en_words":273,"ratio":0.99,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.05,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":13967,"original_word_count":13293,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Ways to a Knowledge of the Eternal Forces of the Human Soul","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA070b/English/SOL2024/19160221p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
