Only after long and profound reflection upon the conceptions about to be given can we discern what the realities are that underlie them. That resignation of which mention has already been made, must be brought into connection with the origin of Time—the scene of which we have laid in ancient Saturn. Time, as we have seen, actually originated on ancient Saturn, with the Archai or Spirits of Time, and there is no sense in referring to Time previous to ancient Saturn. Now at the risk of repeating ourselves, we may say that Time continues. Continuity or Duration is a conception which contains Time within itself. Thus when we say that Time is continuous it means that when we observe Saturn and Sun in the Akashic records, on Saturn we find the origin of Time—and on the Sun we still find Time present. Now if all conditions remained as they were, as we described them in the last two lectures when speaking of Saturn and Sun. Time would then form an element in everything that happens in evolution. We could not in thought eliminate Time from any occurrence in evolution. We have seen that the Spirits of Time came into being on ancient Saturn, and that Time is implanted into everything. All that we have hitherto thought whether in pictures or in imagination concerning evolution we must bring into connection with Time. All that has taken place—sacrifice and the virtue of bestowal, which we have mentioned—would be subject to Time, nothing would not be subject to Time, which means that all arising and passing away which indeed pertains to Time, must be subject to it.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"3.

Nur wenn man lange über die Begriffe, die gegeben werden, nachdenkt, wird man herausfinden, welche Realitäten diesen Begriffen zugrunde liegen. Die Resignation, von der wir gesprochen haben, müssen wir in Verbindung bringen mit etwas, dessen Entstehung wir auf dem alten Saturn kennengelernt haben: mit der Entstehung der Zeit. Wir haben gesehen, daß mit den Geistern der Zeit, den Archai, die Zeit eigentlich erst auf dem alten Saturn entsteht, und daß es keinen Sinn hat, vor dem alten Saturn von einer «Zeit» zu sprechen. Nun liegt zwar eine Wiederholung darin, aber wir können doch sagen: die Zeit dauert fort. «Dauern» ist schon ein Begriff, der die Zeit in sich enthält. Wenn also gesagt wird, «die Zeit dauert fort», so bedeutet das: Wenn wir in der Akasha-Chronik Saturn und Sonne betrachten, so finden wir auf dem Saturn die Entstehung der Zeit, und auf der Sonne, daß die Zeit auch vorhanden ist. Wenn nun alle Verhältnisse so fortgingen, wie wir sie in den beiden letzten Betrachtungen charakterisiert haben in bezug auf Saturn und Sonne, so würde die Zeit ein Element bilden für alles Geschehen in der Evolution. Wir könnten uns die Zeit von keinem Geschehen in der Evolution wegdenken. Wir haben ja gesehen, daß die Geister der Zeit entstanden sind auf dem alten Saturn, und daß die Zeit allem eingepflanzt ist. Und alles, was wir in Bildern, in Imaginationen bisher über die Evolution gedacht haben, müssen wir uns mit der Zeit in Verbindung denken. Wäre also nur geschehen, was wir angeführt haben: Opferung und schenkende Tugend, so wäre alles der Zeit unterworfen gewesen. Nichts wäre nicht der Zeit unterworfen gewesen. Das heißt, es würde alles dem Entstehen und Vergehen, was ja der Zeit angehört, unterworfen sein.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":331,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/132/1911-11-14/p016"}],"english":["GA 132/1911-11-14/p010","GA 132/1911-11-14/p011"],"method":"reader","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":331,"en_words":327,"ratio":0.99,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 132/1911-11-14/p016"],"reader_part":true},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6429,"original_word_count":6179,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"GC1989","book_title":"Evolution in the Aspect of Realities","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA132/English/GC1989/19111114p02.html","evidence":null,"reason":"no_translator_named","note":"Neither the lecture's own page nor rsarchive's lecture list names a translator for it.
