By his instigation man had to learn to know the external, and therefore had to go through the long course of evolution down to the time of Christ. Then he came who was once withdrawn from Lucifer; came in Krishna and later in the Luke Jesus child. In two stages he gave that teaching that from another side was to be the antithesis of the teaching of Lucifer in Paradise. “He wanted to open your eyes to the conditions of sattwa, rajas, and tamas. Shut your eyes to these conditions and you will find yourselves as men, as self-conscious human beings.” Thus does the Imagination appear before us. On the one side the Imagination of Paradise, where Lucifer opens man's eyes to the three conditions in the external world, when for a while the Opponent of Lucifer withdraws. Then men go through their evolution and reach the point where in two stages another teaching is given them, of self-consciousness, which bids them close their eyes to the three external conditions. Both teachings are one-sided. If the Krishna-Jesus influence alone had continued, one one-sidedness would have been added to another. Man would have taken leave of all that surrounds him, would have lost all interest in external evolution. Each person would only have sought his own perfection. Striving for perfection is right; but such striving bought at the price of a lack of interest in the whole of humanity is one-sided, even as the Luciferic influence was one-sided. Hence the all-embracing Christ Impulse entered the higher synthesis of the two one-sided tendencies.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":269,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/146/1913-06-05/p025","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1913-06-05","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 146/1913-06-05/p019","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/146/1913-06-05/p019"}],"bead_confidence":"high","pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"length_check":{"de_words":596,"en_words":604,"ratio":1.01,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

Through each of them mankind would have fallen into weakness and sin. Through Lucifer humanity would have been condemned to live one-sidedly in the external conditions of sattwa, rajas and tamas. Through Krishna they were to be educated for the other extreme, to close their eyes and seek only their own perfection. Christ took the sin upon Himself. He gave to men what reconciles the two one-sided tendencies. He took upon Himself the sin of self-consciousness that would close its eyes to the world outside. He took upon Himself the sin of Krishna, and of all who would commit his sin, and He took upon Himself the sin of Lucifer and of all who would commit the sin of fixing their attention on externalities.

In dieser Persönlichkeit war also im Grunde alles dasjenige, was an Impulsen vorhanden war zur Verselbständigung im Menschen, zum Loslösen von der äußeren Wirklichkeit. Was wollte denn der Krishna oder, sagen wir, diese nicht in die Menschheitsevolution eingetretene Seele, die im Krishna wirkte und dann im Jesusknaben des Lukas, was wollte sie eigentlich? Sie hat es erleben müssen, daß sie einstmals draußen bleiben mußte aus der Menschheitsentwickelung, weil der Gegner gekommen war, der Luzifer, der gesagt hat: «Eure Augen werden geöffnet werden, und ihr werdet unterscheiden das Gute und Böse und werdet sein wie Gott.» Im alten indischen Sinne trat Luzifer vor die Menschen und sagte: Ihr werdet sein wie die Götter und werdet finden können die Sattva-, Rajas-, Tamaszustände in der Welt. — Luzifer hat die Menschen hingewiesen auf die Außenwelt. So mußten die Menschen kennenlernen auf Anstiften des Luzifer das Außen, so mußten sie durch die Evolution hindurchgehen bis in die Christus-Zeit hinein. Da kam derjenige, der damals zurückgewichen war vor Luzifer, in Krishna und im Lukas-Jesusknaben. In zwei Etappen lehrte er nun dasjenige, was von der einen Seite her der Gegenpol sein sollte gegen die LuziferLehre des Paradieses. Er hat die Augen euch öffnen wollen für die Sattva-, Rajas- und Tamaszustände. Schließt die Augen vor den Sattva-, Rajas- und Tamaszuständen: dann werdet ihr euch als Menschen, als selbstbewußte Menschen finden. — So tritt für uns die Imagination auf: auf der einen Seite die Imagination des Paradieses, wo Luzifer der Menschen Augen öffnet für die Sattva-, Rajas- und Tamaszustände, und sich eine Weile zurückzieht derjenige, welcher der Gegner des Luzifer ist. Dann machen die Menschen eine Entwickelung durch und kommen an den Punkt, wo ihnen in zwei Etappen eine andere Lehre vom Selbstbewußtsein entgegenkommt, aber so, daß sie die Augen schließen sollen vor den Sattva-, Rajas- und Tamaszuständen. Beides sind einseitige Lehren. Wäre nur dageblieben der Krishna-Jesus-Einfluß, dasjenige, was im Jesusknaben des Lukas lebte, dann wäre nur die eine Einseitigkeit zu der anderen gekommen, dann hätte der Mensch Abschied genommen von allem, was ihn umgibt, er hätte alles Interesse auch an der äußeren Entwickelung verloren, dann hätte jeder nur seine eigene Vervollkommnung auf der Erde gesucht. Streben nach Vervollkommnung ist recht, aber das Streben, erkauft durch Interesselosigkeit an der ganzen Menschheit, ist eine Einseitigkeit, wie das Luziferische eine Einseitigkeit war. Daher trat das Allumfassende entgegen, der Christus-Impuls, die höhere Synthese beider Einseitigkeiten. In der Person des Lukas-Jesusknaben selber lebte drei Jahre hindurch der Christus-Impuls, der in die Menschheit kam, um diese beiden Einseitigkeiten zusammenzubringen. Durch die beiden Einseitigkeiten wäre die Menschheit in die Schwachheit und Sünde gekommen: durch den Luzifer wäre sie verurteilt zum einseitigen Leben in den äußeren Zuständen Sattva, Rajas, Tamas; durch den Krishna sollte sie für die andere Einseitigkeit erzogen werden: die Augen zu schließen und nur die eigene Vollkommenheit zu suchen. Der Christus nahm auf sich die Sünde, er gab den Menschen dasjenige, was die beiden Einseitigkeiten ausgleicht. Er nahm auf sich die Versündigung des Selbstbewußstseins, das die Augen schließen wollte gegenüber der Außenwelt; er nahm auf sich die Sünde des Krishna und aller, die Krishnas Sünde begehen wollten. Er nahm auf sich die Luzifer-Sünde und aller, die sie begehen wollten, indem sie nur einseitig den Blick auf Sattva, Rajas und Tamas geheftet hielten. Indem er die Einseitigkeiten auf sich nimmt, gibt er den Menschen die Möglichkeit, allmählich wieder einen Zusammenklang zu finden zwischen Innenund Außenwelt, in welchem Zusammenklang allein das Heil der Menschen zu finden ist.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":596,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/146/1913-06-05/p019"}],"beads":[{"from":[24,25,26],"to":[19],"confidence":"high","pairing_state":"proposed"}],"note":"Paired by the paragraph aligner; each language numbers its own paragraphs.
