I must only look through colorless transparent glasses; I must not look through glasses that change the outer world itself for me. And I must now find my way into the difference between glasses that change the outer tinting and glasses that are colorless and transparent and avoid any outer tinting. From this comparison – as I said, long-winded considerations could be used instead of the comparison – I will find: if I take the structure of the so-called normal eye, I have given it a structure that proves to be transparent, that can be compared to the transparent-colorless glass. I find nothing in the normal eye that indicates that the external world is qualitatively changed in any way. But I must not conduct this investigation with the ordinary concepts that I have in everyday consciousness, but with the imaginative consciousness that can truly penetrate the structures of the eye.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Ich muß nur durch eine farblos-durchsichtige Brille schauen; ich darf nicht durch eine Brille schauen, die mir die Außenwelt selber verändert. Und ich muß mich jetzt hineinfinden in den Unterschied zwischen einer die äußere Tingierung verändernden Brille und einer farblos durchsichtigen Brille, die jede äußere Tingierung vermeidet. Von diesem Vergleich aus — wie gesagt, es könnten langatmige Überlegungen anstelle des Vergleichs gesetzt werden — werde ich finden: wenn ich die Einrichtung des sogenannten normalen Auges nehme, habe ich in ihm eine Einrichtung gegeben, die sich gerade als durchsichtig erweist, die sich vergleichen läßt mit dem durchsichtig-farblosen Glase. Ich finde nichts im normalen Auge, was darauf hinweist, daß die Außenwelt qualitativ in irgendeiner Weise verändert wird. Aber ich muß diese Untersuchung anstellen nicht mit den gewöhnlichen Begriffen, die ich im alltäglichen Bewußtsein habe, sondern mit dem imaginativen Bewußtsein, das wirklich in die Einrichtungen des Auges eindringen kann.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":219,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/76/1921-04-04/p052"}],"english":["GA 76/1921-04-04/p052"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":219,"en_words":230,"ratio":1.05,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.02,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8785,"original_word_count":8635,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Stimulating Effect of Anthroposophy on the Individual Sciences","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA076/English/SOL2024/19210404p01.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.
