If you look upon the physical body through the eyes of wisdom, you will find a wonderful structure in every one of its organs—in the heart, in the bones, etc. Observe the wise structure of the heart and consider the work done daily and hourly by this comparatively small organ. Compare this with the present comparatively still deficient development of the astral body: the unpurified passions which live in it every day, man's longing for pleasures which literally ill-treat the structure of the heart—nevertheless the heart is able to paralyze these harmful astral influences without breaking; and frequently without undergoing any damage.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"VIII.

Wenn Sie den physischen Leib anschauen mit den Augen der Weisheit, dann sehen Sie in jedem Organ dieses physischen Körpers einen Wunderbau, im Herzen, in den Knochen und so weiter. Betrachten Sie nur einmal den weisheitsvollen Bau des Herzens und bedenken Sie, was dies verhältnismäßig doch kleine Organ täglich und stündlich an Arbeit leistet. Halten Sie dem gegenüber die heute noch verhältnismäßig mangelhafte Ausbildung des Astralleibes: wie in diesem Astralleib noch täglich unveredelte Leidenschaften sich regen, wie der Mensch unter anderem noch täglich Sehnsucht nach Genüssen in sich verspürt, deren Befriedigung diesen Wunderbau des Herzens geradezu malträtiert, und doch ist das Herz imstande, alle diese astralen Schädigungen zu paralysieren, ohne entzwei zu gehen, ja oft ohne überhaupt Schaden zu nehmen. Heute also ist der Astralleib noch nicht so weit entwickelt wie der physische Leib; heute ist der physische Leib das vollkommenste Glied. In der Zukunft allerdings wird der Astralleib so weit sein, daß er den physischen Leib überragt. Weniger weit als der physische Leib ist heute der Ätherleib entwickelt, und erst an dritter Stelle steht der Astralleib. Und das jüngste unter den Gliedern der menschlichen Wesenheit ist das Ich; es wird deshalb erst am spätesten seine Vollkommenheit erreichen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":234,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/100/1907-06-23/p047"}],"english":["GA 100/1907-06-23/p062","GA 100/1907-06-23/p063"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":234,"en_words":228,"ratio":0.97,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.08,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5666,"original_word_count":5259,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"ANS1942","book_title":"Theosophy and Rosicrucianism","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA100/English/ANS1942/19070623p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"source_says_translator_unknown","note":"The source page itself says the translator is unknown.
