{{Style S-HPB SB. Continues on|14-110}} | The most general and the simplest expression of the activity of the older spirit-masses is reproduction, which consists in the attempt of the active spirit to produce one resembling itself. | ||
The formation of new spirit-masses depends on the common action, partly of older spirit masses, partly of material causes; and, indeed, everything working in common is impeded or advanced according to the inner heterogeneity or homogeneity of the spirit-masses which it strives to produce. | |||
The form in which the spirit-masses construct themselves (or the quality of the representation accompanying their construction) depends upon the relative forms of motion of the matter in which they are constructed, so that a like form of motion of the matter determines a like form of the spirit-mass con{{Style S-HPB SB.

All spirit-masses formed simultaneously (in our cerebro-spinal system) are combined in consequence of a physical (chemical-electrical) process between the places where they are formed. | |||
Every spirit-mass endeavours to produce a similarly-formed spirit-mass. It thus endeavours to restore that form of motion of matter in which it was formed (itself). | |||

But to explain the combination of a particular new representation with others, the assumption of an individual substratum alone is ''insufficient;'' rather must the causes of its entering into these particular combinations in this particular strength be sought in the representations with which it combines. ''Along with'' these causes, however, the assumption of an individual substratum of all representations is superfluous. . . . | |||
We now apply these laws of intellectual processes, to which we are led by the explanation of our own inner perception, to the explanation of the adaptability perceived on the earth—that is, to the explanation of existence and of historical development.{{Style S-HPB SB. Continues on|14-110}} | |||
