the ubermensch does not retreat from the world, but rather overcomes it (no pun intended). he must live in this world and work to remake it as the inner world. it's rather akin to blake's ideas: 'innocence' and 'organised innocence'. we are incarnate (precisely) to get (some of these) things out of our systems. from a forgotten pre-chrisitian greek philosopher: a dry soul is a beautiful thing to god; souls love to get wet. i have paraphrased and compressed, but conveyed accurately. giblfiz has the idea!
