1) I wanted to ask about the differences in monist idealism of Steiner vs critical idealism of Schopenhauer, subconscious mentation, and how it affects perception of reality.
Linked to above: You'd discussed Steiner before and some of the mistakes he's made, but also his imagination and his projects. Where exactly was he receiving his ideas? Were they projections of his subconscious or something else? This idea of using imagination as an instrument of perception, does it imply external influence on your imagination or just high openness to subconscious mentation?
