Südwärts vom heutigen Asien dehnte sich dieser Kontinent aus bis nach Afrika und Australien hinüber; den bewohnten unsere Vorfahren, als sie noch Lemurier waren. Sie hatten einen viel weicheren Körper als die Atlantier, und der Wille war bei ihnen viel mächtiger ausgebildet als bei den Atlantiern. Dafür aber war der Boden unter den Lemuriern ein recht unsicherer: er wurde fortwährend durcheinandergeworfen von Feuerausbrüchen, vulkanischen Gewalten. Eine Art Feuerland war dies alte Lemurien. Gehen wir noch weiter in seine Anfänge zurück, so kommen wir zu einem Zeitpunkt, wo das Knochensystem überhaupt erst begann sich herauszugliedern aus der knochenlosen Masse. Dann kommen wir in die Zeit, wo die Erde überhaupt das heutige Mineralreich noch nicht herausgebildet hatte: alles, was heute in den Bergen drinnen ist, haben wir da in einem fortwährenden Hinfließen und Hinrinnen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":162,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/100/1907-06-25/p018"}],"english":["GA 100/1907-06-25/p026","GA 100/1907-06-25/p027"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":162,"en_words":140,"ratio":0.86,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.07,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":3926,"original_word_count":3679,"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/ANS1942/19070625p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"source_says_translator_unknown","note":"The source page itself says the translator is unknown.
