In its climaxes, its inner artistic form, it reflects deep occult truths. Beginning with an instruction in the ordinary concepts of our thinking it goes on to an indication of the path of Yoga. Then at the third stage to a description of the marvelous expansion of man's horizon over the whole earth, where Krishna awakens in Arjuna the idea, “All that lives in your soul has lived often before, only you know nothing of it. But I have this consciousness in myself when I look back on all the transformations through which I have lived, and I will lead you up so that you may learn to feel yourself as I feel myself.” A new moment of dramatic force as beautiful as it is deeply and occultly true!","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture II","site_heading":"Soul Upheaval and the Birth of Abstract Thought","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.

Wir fühlen uns dann so mit der ganzen Erde verwoben. Aber indem wir das tun, fühlen wir uns nicht mehr als Menschen an eine bestimmte Zeit und an einen bestimmten Ort gefesselt, sondern wir fühlen unser Menschentum, wie es sich entwickelt hat vom Erdenursprung bis zum Erdenende. Wir fühlen die ganze unendliche Reihe unserer Entwickelungen durch die Erdenevolution hindurch. So schreitet Yoga weiter zu dem Sich-eins-Fühlen mit dem, was von Verkörperung zu Verkörperung, von Inkarnation zu Inkarnation in der Erdenentwickelung geht. Das muß die nächste, die dritte Stufe sein. Das ist es auch, was zu der schönen, künstlerischen Komposition der Bhagavad Gita führt, daß dieser erhabene Sang in seiner inneren künstlerischen, sich steigernden Komposition okkulte tiefe Wahrheiten spiegelt: erstens Unterweisung in den gewöhnlichen, dazumal alltäglichen Begriffen, zweitens Anleitung zum Yogaweg, drittens die Beschreibung der wunderbaren Ausbreitung des Horizontes über die ganze Erde hin, da wo Krishna vor Arjuna die Vorstellung entwickelt: Alles, was in deiner Seele lebt, hat oftmals gelebt, du weißt es nur nicht. Aber ich habe in mir dies Bewußtsein, wenn ich zurückschaue in die Verwandlungen, die ich durchlebte, und ich will dich heraufführen, damit du lernst dich fühlen, wie ich mich fühle. — Ein neues dramatisches Moment! Ebenso schön, wie auf der anderen Seite tief okkult wahr. Die Entwickelung der Menschheit vom Alltagsbewußtsein heraus, von der Perle am Wege, die nur erst bekannt sein muß, von der in der jeweiligen Zeit alltäglichen Gedanken- und Begriffswelt, bis herauf zur Überschau dessen, was in Wahrheit in uns ist und von Erdeninkarnation zu Erdeninkarnation lebt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":278,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/146/1913-05-29/p031"}],"english":["GA 146/1913-05-29/p033","GA 146/1913-05-29/p034","GA 146/1913-05-29/p035"],"method":"length+anchor_constrained","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":278,"en_words":329,"ratio":1.18,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.97,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5876,"original_word_count":6059,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"George and Mary Adams with emendations by Doris M.
