 |
||||
 |
Aristotle One of the historical founders of rational science, linking
thought to concrete reality and observation. The individual consciousness
is thus strengthened. |
|||
|
||||
 |
Plato Plato is a witness of the reality of that spiritual realm, where
creating/forming forces , i.e. ideas reveal themselves by direct
supersensible perception. Behind a material phenomenon a fully
bright ideal reality exists. |
|||
|
||||

self conscient perception of innerly appearing spiritual phenomena,

Novalis His passionate love for caves and depths of the earth surely leads to more knowledge and devotion for the earths beauties and misteries. |
|||
|
||||
 |
Ernst Haeckel Ernst Haeckel’s attempt to study Nature as a whole, connected by rational principles that can be expressed by sober thoughts, such as ontogeny and philogeny, is a milestone in mankind’s struggle to understand his relationship to the beings of Nature around him. His drawings of primitive sea animals reveal a deep devotion to creatures. |

 |
Charles Darwin One of the big fighters for a dynamic understanding of Nature: evolution contraposed to the static view of an abstract creationism, whereas the latter cannot be confirmed by unprejudiced observations in Nature. |
|||
| |
||||
 |
St. John In the prologue to his gospel with impressive philosophical wordings the drama of evolution is already enlarged beyond the sole scope of physical perception: Logos acting within the evolution, the Logos itself appearing as Man. Man becoming himself an actor, if he knows to find the Logos within his depths and to transform his being accordingly. |

 |
Francesco D’Assisi Francis looks at living creatures with that love and devotion, that puts any creature in the condition to reveal itself, truly confídent, that it will be properly considered, recognised and respected. |
