For us it has at the same time become a meaningful historical problem: to strike the bridge between West and East, and this task must stand before us in philosophy. This task also directs itself into Anthroposophy. If Anthroposophy becomes capable of inward thought experiences developing into living form, then it may on the other side experience quite materialistic natural phenomena as they are experienced in the West, because then it will not be through abstract concepts but through living scientific circles that the bridge is built between mere belief and knowledge, between knowing and subjective certainty. Then out of philosophy a real Anthroposophy will develop and philosophy can be fructified from both sides by these living sciences. Only then would Hegel's philosophy be awakened to life, when through the anthroposophical experience you let the blood of life be spiritually added to it. Then there won't be a logical base which is so abstract that it can't be “Spirit on the other side of Nature”, as Hegel wanted it, but that it really can be grasped, not as abstraction but as the living spirituality of philosophy.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"3.

Es ist für uns zu gleicher Zeit ein bedeutsames historisches Problem geworden: die Brücke zu schlagen zwischen West und Ost, und diese Aufgabe muß heute vor uns stehen in der Philosophie. Diese Aufgabe führt aber zugleich hinein in die Anthroposophie. Wird die Anthroposophie innerlich fähig, sich selber in dem Gedankenerleben lebendige Gestalt zu geben, dann darf sie auch auf der anderen Seite ganz materialistisch die natürliche Wirklichkeit erleben, wie man sie im Westen erlebt; denn dann wird nicht durch abstrakte Begriffe, sondern im lebendigen Wissenschaftsringen die Brücke gebaut zwischen dem bloßen Glauben und dem Wissen, zwischen dem Erkennen und der subjektiven Gewißheit. Dann wird aus der Philosophie eine wirkliche Anthroposophie entwickelt, und die Philosophie kann jederzeit von dieser lebendigen Wissenschaft befruchtet werden. Das wird die Hegelsche Philosophie erst wieder zum Leben erwecken können, wenn ihr durch das anthroposophische Erleben Lebensblut geistiger Art zugeführt wird. Dann wird nicht mehr eine Logik dastehen, die so abstrakt ist, daß sie nicht der «Geist jenseits der Natur» sein kann, wie Hegel wollte, sondern daß sie das wirklich sein kann, indem dann nicht der abstrakte, sondern der lebendige Geist von der Philosophie erfaßt wird.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":206,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/81/1922-03-07/p026"}],"english":["GA 81/1922-03-07/p033"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":206,"en_words":204,"ratio":0.99,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.98,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5108,"original_word_count":5205,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Hanna von Maltitz","identified_edition":"eLib2018","book_title":"The Impulse for Renewal in Culture and Science","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA081/English/eLib2018/19220307p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line"},"entity_parity":{"status":"ok","checked_against":["GA 81/1922-03-07/p026"],"missing_from_translation":[],"present_only_in_translation":[],"bead_confidence":"high","note":"Every load-bearing name in the German counterpart appears in this English passage.
