The thirteenth did not become a scholar in the accepted sense of that time. He was an individuality who had been incarnated at the time of the Mystery of Golgotha. In the incarnations that followed he prepared himself for his mission through humility of soul and through a fervent life devoted to God. He was a great soul, a pious, deeply mystical human being, who had not just acquired these qualities but was born with them. If you imagine to yourselves a young man who is very pious and who devotes all his time to fervent prayer to God, then you can have a picture of the individuality of this thirteenth. He grew up entirely under the care and instruction of the twelve, and he received as much wisdom as each one could give him. He was educated with the greatest care, and every precaution was taken to see that no one other than the twelve exercised an influence on him. He was kept apart from the rest of the world. He was a very delicate child in that incarnation of the thirteenth century, and therefore the education that the twelve bestowed upon him worked right into his physical body. Now the twelve, being deeply devoted to their spiritual tasks and inwardly permeated with Christianity, were conscious that the external Christianity of the Church was only a caricature of the real Christianity. They were permeated with the greatness of Christianity, although in the outside world they were taken to be its enemies. Each individuality worked his way into just one aspect of Christianity. Their endeavour was to unite the various religions into one great whole. They were convinced that the whole of spiritual life was contained in their twelve streams, and each one influenced the pupil to the best of his ability. Their aim was to achieve a synthesis of all the religions, but they knew that this was not to be achieved by means of any theory but only as the result of spiritual life. And for this a suitable education of the thirteenth was essential.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"III.

Dieser Dreizehnte wurde kein Gelehrter im Sinne der damaligen Zeit. Er war eine Individualität, die inkarniert gewesen war zur Zeit des Mysteriums von Golgatha. Er hatte in darauffolgenden Inkarnationen durch ein demütiges Gemüt, durch ein inbrünstiges, gottergebenes Leben sich für seine Mission vorbereitet. Er war eine große Seele, ein frommer, innerlich tief mystischer Mensch, der mit diesen Eigenschaften geboren wurde und sie sich nicht nur erworben hatte. Wenn Sie sich einen jungen Menschen vorstellen, sehr fromm, fortwährend inbrünstig zu seinem Gott betend, so können Sie sich ein Bild der Individualität dieses Dreizehnten vor Augen stellen. Dieser Dreizehnte wuchs ganz und gar auf in der Pflege und Erziehung der Zwölf, und er erhielt von jedem an Weisheit, so viel ihm jeder nur geben konnte. Mit der größten Sorgfalt wurde dieser Dreizehnte erzogen, und es wurden alle Einrichtungen so getroffen, dass niemand als diese Zwölf einen Einfluss auf ihn ausüben konnten. Er wurde von der übrigen Welt abgesondert. Er war ein sehr schwächliches Kind in jener Inkarnation des dreizehnten Jahrhunderts, daher wirkte die Erziehung, die ihm die Zwölf angedeihen ließen, bis in seinen physischen Leib hinein. Die Zwölf aber, von denen jeder so durchdrungen und erfüllt von seiner geistigen Aufgabe war und tief durchdrungen vom Christentum, waren sich bewusst, dass das äußere Christentum der Kirche nur ein Zerrbild des wahren Christentums war. Sie waren erfüllt von der Größe des Christentums, galten aber äußerlich als Feinde desselben. Jeder einzelne arbeitete sich nur in einen Teil des Christentums hinein. Ihr Bestreben war, die verschiedenen Religionen in einer großen Einheit zu vereinigen. Sie waren überzeugt, dass in ihren zwölf Strömungen alles geistige Leben enthalten war, und jeder wirkte nach seinen Kräften auf den Schüler ein. Sie hatten als Ziel, eine Synthesis aller Religionen zu erlangen, waren sich aber bewusst, dass dieses Ziel nicht durch irgendeine Theorie, sondern durch die Auswirkung des geistigen Lebens zu erreichen war. Und dazu war eine entsprechende Erziehung des Dreizehnten notwendig.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":339,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/130/1911-09-27/p015"}],"english":["GA 130/1911-09-27/p015"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":339,"en_words":365,"ratio":1.08,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.25,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":4667,"original_word_count":3719,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Pauline Wehrle","identified_edition":"RSP1984","book_title":"Esoteric Christianity and the Mission of Christian Rosenkreutz","publisher":"Rudolf Steiner Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA130/English/RSP1984/19110927p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
