A new epoch began with the Mystery of Golgotha. You may therefore say: All initiations were prophetic announcements of that which took place in the Mystery of Golgotha; this event could only take place because an individuality as encompassing as the Ruler of the Sun Spirits was incarnated in the body of Jesus of Nazareth. What took place upon Mount Golgotha, could not have been fulfilled by any human Ego; such as we have it. Such a deed called for an Ego which had already advanced t0 a high stage of development upon the Sun.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"XII.

Was für den einzelnen Menschen in den Mysterienschulen geschah, vollzog sich für die ganze Welt einmal in der physischen Welt in Palästina. Wenn Sie heute die Vorschriften für die alten Eingeweihten nehmen könnten, würden Sie sehen, daß jene Vorschriften mit diesen dreieinhalb Tagen ihren Abschluß bekamen: niemals hatte sich das früher auf dem physischen Plane abgespielt. Es begann damit eine neue Epoche. So daß Sie sagen können: Alle die Einweihungen waren prophetische Vorherverkündigungen dessen, was sich in dem Mysterium von Golgatha vollzogen hat; und nur dadurch konnte es sich abspielen, daß eine so umfassende Individualität, wie es der Regent der Sonnengeister war, eingekörpert war in den Leib des Jesus von Nazareth. Kein solches menschliches Ich, wie wir es in uns haben, hätte jemals das durchführen können, was sich da auf Golgatha abgespielt hat.
