Mathematics (Greek: μαθηματική τέχνη mathēmatikē téchnē "the art of learning, belonging to learning" or μανθάνω manthánō "I learn") is the science which seeks to fathom the laws of numbers and geometrical figures through pure thought with inner, self-sustaining certainty. According to Rudolf Steiner, mathematics is the first stage of supersensible perception. For this reason, the Gnostics also conceived of their mysticism as "mathesis", because the same clarity of thought as in mathematics should also prevail in spiritual knowledge.
