Soul riddles, grasped in their liveliness, are nothing other than the expression of soul-spiritual hunger and thirst. And the solution to the soul riddle is basically nothing other than the assimilation of true spiritual content, true spiritual beings, which unite with the human spirit and with the human soul life. And so, I would say, spiritual saturation, which must continually repeat itself, is the solution to the riddle of the soul. The more vividly one grasps the process and the more one realizes how anthroposophy seeks to reach into every aspect of practical life, how it seeks to take root in the most mundane things and reach up to the great riddle of existence by introducing man to the divine spiritual source of existence, by leading him to his immortal self, the more one will realize that anthroposophy cannot be theory, but something that can be experienced.

Je lebendiger man den Prozess fasst und je mehr man einsieht, wie Anthroposophie durchaus in das praktische Leben hineingreifen will in jedem Punkte, wie sie im Alleralltäglichsten Wurzel fassen will und hinaufgelangen will zu den großen Rätselfragen des Daseins, indem sie den Menschen in den göttlich-geistigen Urgrund des Daseins einführt, indem sie ihn zu seinem Unsterblichen führt, desto mehr wird man einsehen, dass Anthroposophie nicht Theorie sein kann, sondern etwas durchaus Erlebbares sein kann.
