[46] It is a great merit of Windelband to have brought this aspect of the _Ought_ prominently forward in contradistinction to the over-importance attached to the _Will_ alone by the Pragmatists. _Cf._ his _Praeludien_. [47] _The Truth of Religion_, p. 175. [48] Modern psychology would agree with such a view, but probably not with the implications given to it by Eucken. The "faculty" psychology as it was presented by Kant has now disappeared, and consciousness is conceived as a unity in which the three aspects referred to are present, and even the single aspect that is in the foreground of consciousness is influenced by the others which are in the background. Another point made clear by Hoeffding (_cf_. his _Psychology)_ and others is the difference between the activity of consciousness in the "drifting" process of association of ideas and its power to stem the association current, and to turn it into new directions by means of the reflective power of consciousness itself. [49] It is a great merit of Bergson's philosophy to have pointed this out. It is a conception presented several times in the history of philosophy, but there is great need of re-emphasising it to-day, especially as things in space have gripped the soul with such power and disastrous results.

[52] _Cf._ Ward's _The Realm of Ends_, chapters ii. and xx.; also Caird's _Evolution of Religion_ has many valuable hints throughout the two volumes pointing in the same direction. [53] _The Truth of Religion_, p. 436. [54] Quoted in _The Truth of Religion_, p. 436. [55] Cf. _The Truth of Religion_, pp. 429 ff. [56] _The Truth of Religion_, p. 430. [57] This fact is very clearly interpreted by Rickert in his _Gegenstand der Erkenntnis_. [58] _The Truth of Religion_, p. 431. [59] I cannot but believe that the supposed proofs brought forward by Sir Oliver Lodge and others are so empirical as to be of very little value to religion. [60] _The Truth of Religion_, p. 533. [61] _The Truth of Religion_, pp. 367, 368. [62] _The Truth of Religion_, pp. 11, 12. [63] _The Truth of Religion_, p. 545. It is on this fact that Eucken builds his conception of immortality. Such a conception is not a matter of speculation or of scientific proof, but a matter of an experience born on the summit of the evolution of spiritual life within the soul. It is useless to attempt to press such an experience into a conceptual mould. [64] _The Truth of Religion_, pp. 550, 551.
