Er erlebt dasjenige zuerst, was die erste Bewußtseinsstufe der Kindheit abstreift, den Zusammenhang mit dem Makrokosmos. Der ist nicht da, tritt nicht ins bewußte Leben hinüber. Und so wie der Mensch seiner eigentlichen Wesenheit nach ist, wird er aufgezehrt, getötet von dem Leben des physischen Planes, das eigentlich erst mit dem genannten Zeitraum beginnt. — Fassen Sie jetzt diesen Menschen ins Auge, der sozusagen der Mensch des physischen Planes ist, der sich im heutigen normalen Bewußtsein zurückerinnert bis zu einem bestimmten Zeitpunkt; vor diesem liegen drei Jahre der Kindheit. Dieser Mensch mit dem Faden der Erinnerung ist so verstrickt mit dem physischen Plan, daß es Orpheus seiner eigentlichen Wesenheit nach nicht in ihm aushalten kann, sondern zerrissen wird. Das ist der eigentliche Menschengeist der heutigen Zeit, derjenige Menschengeist, der uns zeigt, wie der Mensch am tiefsten mit der Materie verstrickt sein kann. Das ist der Geist, der im Sinne des paulinischen Christentums der Menschensohn genannt wird. Das müssen Sie sich einmal als einen Begriff aneignen: der Menschensohn, der sich im Menschen findet von dem Zeitpunkt ab, bis zu dem sich der Mensch heute zurückerinnert, mit alledem, was sich der Mensch von der Kultur aneignen kann. Fassen Sie diesen Menschen ins Auge, und denken Sie sich nun alles, was der Mensch sein könnte durch den Zusammenhang mit dem Makrokosmos, wenn hinzukäme, was in den ersten Kindheitsjahren hereindringt vom Makrokosmos. In den ersten Kindheitsjahren kann es nichts anderes sein als eine Grundlage, weil das entwickelte menschliche Ich noch nicht da ist. Wenn es aber in das entwickelte menschliche Ich hereinfiele, dann würde geschehen, was zuerst geschehen ist in dem Augenblick, als dem Jesus von Nazareth der Geist von oben herunterkam durch die Jordan-Taufe: Die drei unschuldigen Kindheits-Entwickelungsstadien mischten sich mit dem übrigen Menschentum zusammen. Das ist das Nächste. Und was war die Folge davon? Die Folge war, daß dieses unschuldige Kindheitsleben, als es sich entwickeln wollte auf der physischen Erde, sich nur drei Jahre entwickeln konnte - wie es sich überall nur drei Jahre entwickelt — und dann auf Golgatha sein Ende fand, das heißt, sich nicht vermischen konnte mit dem, was der Mensch wird in dem Zeitpunkt, bis zu dem er sich dann normalerweise zurückerinnert.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":383,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/124/1911-01-16/p035"}],"english":["GA 124/1911-01-16/p041","GA 124/1911-01-16/p042"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":383,"en_words":400,"ratio":1.04,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.95,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6274,"original_word_count":6604,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"E.
