“Everything that from eternity has happened in heaven and earth, the life of God and all the deeds of time simply are the struggles for Spirit to know Itself, to find Itself, be for Itself, and finally unite itself to Itself; it is alienated and divided, but only so as to be able thus to find itself and return to Itself...As existing in an individual form, this liberation is called 'I'; as developed to its totality, it is free Spirit; as feeling, it is Love; and as enjoyment, it is Blessedness.” KnowsLoveFeelingsAbleEarthFormSpiritIndividualHeavenStruggleHappenedReturnEternityDeedsLiberationEnjoymentDividedHeaven And EarthTotalityFree SpiritBlessedness Author:Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel
“Of course, even the general designation 'religious' includes various basic ideas or convictions, for example, the indestructibility of the soul, the eternity of its existence, the existence of a higher being, etc. But all these ideas, regardless of how convincing they may be for the individual, are submitted to the critical examination of this individual and hence to a fluctuating affirmation or negation until emotional divination or knowledge assumes the binding force of apodictic faith.” MayIdeasSoulCoursesIndividualForceReligiousExistenceExampleEmotionalHigherEternityAssumingVariousConvictionCriticalEtcAffirmationConvincingExaminationBindingNegationDesignation Author:Adolf Hitler
