Many people in our time therefore do not think much of satisfying their soul needs, their longings for the eternal in the human soul, through such self-abandoned thinking. And in our time, when the old traditions of religious life, of faith, as such are becoming increasingly shaky and shaky, people do need such new supports. Therefore, many deeper minds are found in our time, which understand: a philosophy of life that relies on reason alone cannot give the soul the necessary support and security. That is why such deeply-disposed natures today turn to certain mystical directions.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"The Essence of Anthroposophy","site_heading":null,"date":"1922-01-23","location":null,"word_count":136,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/80a/1922-01-23/p007","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:identity","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Essence of Anthroposophy","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA080a/English/SOL2024/19220123p01.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.

Und in unserer Zeit, in der die alten Traditionen des religiösen Lebens, des Glaubens, als solche immer wankender und wankender werden, brauchen doch die Menschen solche neuen Stützen. Daher finden sich viele tiefer veranlagte Gemüter in unserer Zeit, welche einsehen: Eine auf das sich selbst überlassene Denken vertrauende Weltanschauung kann der Seele nicht den nötigen Halt, die nötige Sicherheit geben.
