An inward working that does not proceed from any soul-interiority of its own — the plant has no such thing — but one that, out of the supersensible, has the power, by way of the plant's arrangement of substances, to draw earthly substances toward itself in a targeted way. But how do these substances come into motion? Must they not first be set flowing in the right way by the life organisation of plants growing in neighbouring fields, in meadows and in forests? That is: must the earthly substances not first be raised out of their physico-material condition into that of the formative forces? This riddle-question remains open!
