A faint reflection of the harmony of the spheres and of the working of the life-ether was present in man's inner nature. But the reflection of the harmony of the spheres faded away to the same extent as man became *inwardly* aware of feelings and perceptions which mirrored the external world to him and constitute his inner life to-day. To the extent to which he felt himself an ‘I’, an Ego-being, his perception of the divine, all-pervading life-ether vanished from him. His condition had to be acquired at the cost of being deprived of certain aspects of external life. As an earthly being, man felt that the life he could no longer experience as streaming directly from the Sun was enclosed within him; and in his inner life to-day He has only a faint reflection of the sublime cosmic life, of the harmony of the spheres and the life-ether.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture III","site_heading":"Cosmic Evolution and the Hebrew Lineage of Christ","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Aber in demselben Maße, wie sich der Mensch innerlich erfüllt fühlte mit Empfindungen, mit Wahrnehmungen, die ihm die äußere Welt wiederholten und die sein heutiges Innenleben ausbildeten, in demselben Maße schwand für ihn die Sphärenmusik. Und in demselben Maße, wie sich der Mensch fühlte als eineIch-Wesenheit, schwand für ihn hin die Wahrnehmung des die Welt durchpulsenden göttlichen Lebensäthers. Der Mensch mußte sich den jetzigen Zustand dadurch erkaufen, daß er gewisse Seiten des äußeren Lebens verlor. So fühlte der Mensch als Erdenwesen in sich abgeschlossen das Leben, das er als direkt von der Sonne ausstrahlend nicht mehr wahrnehmen konnte; und nur einen schwachen Abglanz hat er von dem gewaltigen kosmischen Leben, von Sphärenklang und Lebensäther, heute in seinem Innenleben. ‚Auch für das menschliche Erkennen entwickelte sich wie eine Wiederholung das, was sich für die Erde selbst entwickelt hat. Die Erde wäre, als sie sich von der Sonne abgetrennt hatte, in sich verschlossen worden, wäre verhärtet worden, wenn sie weiter verbunden geblieben wäre mit all den Substantialitäten, mit denen sie sich von der Sonne getrennt hatte. Die Sonne konnte mit ihren Wirkungen zunächst nicht in das Erdenwerden eingreifen, und das dauerte so lange, bis die Trennung des Mondes von der Erde eintrat. Deshalb haben wir in dem, was die Erde als Mond aus sich herauswarf, eine Abstoßung all derjenigen Substantialitäten zu erblicken, welche es der Erde unmöglich machten, die direkten Sonnenwirkungen zu empfangen. Und indem sie den Mond aus sich heraussetzte, öffnete sie dadurch ihr Sein und ihr Wesen erst so recht den Einflüssen, den Wirkungen der von ihr getrennten Sonne, kam gleichsam der Sonne entgegen. Entgegen jener Richtung, in der sich die Erde selbst von der Sonne getrennt hatte, schickte sie einen Teil ihres eigenen Wesens, den Mond, der dann die Wirkung des Sonnenwesens der Erde reflektiert wiedergab, wie er äußerlich das Licht wiedergibt. In der Abspaltung des Mondes von der Erde liegt also etwas höchst Bedeutungsvolles vor: das Sich-Öffnen der Erde gegenüber den Sonnenwirkungen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":351,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/123/1910-09-03_02/p018"}],"english":["GA 123/1910-09-03_02/p021","GA 123/1910-09-03_02/p022"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":351,"en_words":362,"ratio":1.03,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.95,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6387,"original_word_count":6702,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Dorothy S.
