This era had an aspect of the world that had already presented itself cosmically in the Atlantean age. The human being became denser and denser. At the beginning of the human being's evolution the bones were present only as lines of force within. Then the human being became a being of air, and later a gelatinous being. The forms of the skeletal system are increasingly formed. On the other hand the powers of soul were in equal measure greater at that time. The Lemurians, who lived in viscous bodies in ancient times, had powers of soul much greater than those of the following races. It was much the same with the Atlanteans. If cannon balls had existed at that time, for example, such an Atlantean could have simply deflected any cannon ball through the power in his soul even though his physical body was not as dense as bodies are today. In terms of their physical bodily nature, Atlanteans were much thinner than we are today.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture II-VI","site_heading":null,"date":"1909-05-15","location":null,"word_count":183,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/104a/1909-05-15/p011","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:length","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"James H.

Diese hatte also eine Anschauung, welche sich schon kosmisch dargelebt hatte in dem atlantischen Zeitalter. Immer mehr verdichtete sich da der Mensch. Im Anfang seiner Entwickelung sind die Knochen nur als Kraftlinien im Menschen angedeutet; dann ist der Mensch ein luftiges, später ein gallertartiges Wesen. Es bilden sich nun mehr und mehr die Formen des Knochensystems aus. Dagegen war in demselben Maße die seelische Kraft dazumal stärker. Die Lemurier, die in alten Zeiten in dickflüssigen Leibern waren, hatten viel größere Seelenkräfte als die folgenden Rassen. Ähnlich war es noch bei den Atlantiern. Hätte es damals schon Kanonenkugeln gegeben, so hätte zum Beispiel ein solcher Atlantier eine gegen ihn geschleuderte Kugel einfach wegreflektieren können durch Seelenkraft, wenn auch sein physischer Leib nicht so dicht war wie heute. Die Atlantier waren also als physische Leiblichkeit noch viel dünner.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":154,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/104a/1909-05-15/p011"}],"english":["GA 104a/1909-05-15/p011"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":154,"en_words":183,"ratio":1.19,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.25,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":2023,"original_word_count":1614,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"James H.
