In the normal man of to-day these two forms of consciousness are separate: indeed they must be separate, for they are incompatible. Nor were they any more compatible in Christ Jesus Himself; after those three years, death was bound to supervene and to occur in the circumstances as they actually were in Palestine. These circumstances were not matters of chance but came about because these two lived within each other: the Son of God (which is man from the moment of his birth until the development of the Ego-consciousness) and the Son of Man (which is what he is after Ego-consciousness has been attained). The events which then culminated in the happenings in Palestine were the outcome of the living together of the Son of God and the Son of Man.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"VI.

Paulus sagte: «Nicht ich, sondern der Christus in mir!» das heißt die Wesenheit, die ein solches makrokosmisches Bewußtsein hat, wie es das Kind haben würde, wenn es das Bewußtsein der ersten drei Jahre durchdringen könnte mit dem Bewußtsein der späteren Zeit. Beim heutigen normalen Menschen sind diese beiden Arten getrennt, müssen getrennt sein; denn sie würden sich sonst nicht vertragen können. Sie haben sich auch nicht im Christus Jesus vertragen. Denn nach jenen drei Jahren mußte notwendigerweise der Tod eintreten, und zwar unter den Verhältnissen, wie sie sich in Palästina abgespielt haben. Nicht zufällig haben sie sich so dargestellt, sondern durch das Ineinanderleben dieser zwei Faktoren: des Gottessohnes, der der Mensch ist von dem Zeitpunkt der Geburt bis zur Entwickelung des Ich-Bewußtseins, und des Menschensohnes, der der Mensch ist nach dem Zeitpunkt der Erringung des Ich-Bewußtseins.
