This realization imbues us with humility, but also with a proper consciousness of our human dignity. We realize at the same time that something lives in us that can prove at all times that we can rise above ourselves to a self that is already surpassing us and will continue to do so from one life to the next. As this realization assumes a more and more definite form, it can have a very soothing, heartwarming effect and, at the same time, imbue the soul with the appropriate humility and modesty. What lives within us is truly a higher, divine human being, and we can feel ourselves pervaded by this being as by a living presence of whom we can say, *This is my inner guide in me*.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture One","site_heading":null,"date":null,"location":null,"word_count":143,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/15/l01/p023","alignment_confidence":"medium","alignment_reason":"beads:length","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":null,"edition_coverage":{"de":["original"],"en":["AP1992","ASGB1921"]},"available_versions":[{"lang":"de","edition":"original","edition_basis":null,"is_original":true,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/15/l01/p023"},{"lang":"en","edition":"AP1992","edition_basis":null,"is_original":false,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/15/l01/p023","paragraph_aligned":true},{"lang":"en","edition":"ASGB1921","edition_basis":null,"is_original":false,"is_default_edition":false,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/15/l01/p023?edition=ASGB1921","paragraph_aligned":true}],"german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"l01","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 15/l01/p014","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/15/l01/p014"}],"bead_confidence":"medium","pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"evidence":["length"],"length_check":{"de_words":238,"en_words":253,"ratio":1.06,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

Ist dieser selbst einmal von dem Menschenwesen abgefallen, so muß der Mensch , wenn er sein Ziel erreicht haben soll, so weit gekommen sein, daß er in der Tat sich mit seiner ganzen Wesenheit den Kräften hingeben kann, die gegenwärtig nur in der Kindheit tätig sind. Der Sinn der Entwickelung durch die aufeinanderfolgenden Erdenleben hindurch ist also, den ganzen Menschen, somit auch den bewußten Teil, allmählich zum Ausdruck der Kräfte zu machen, die in den ersten Lebensjahren unter Einwirkung der geistigen Welt an ihm - ihm unbewußt - walten. Der Gedanke, der aus solchen Betrachtungen heraus sich der Seele bemächtigt, muß mit Demut, aber auch mit richtigem Bewußtsein der Menschenwürde erfüllen. Es ist der Gedanke: Der Mensch ist nicht allein; in ihm lebt etwas, was ihm immerdar den Beweis liefern kann: Es kann der Mensch sich über sich selbst erheben, zu etwas, was gegenwärtig schon über ihn hinauswächst und was wachsen wird von Leben zu Leben. Immer bestimmtere und bestimmtere Gestalt kann dieser Gedanke annehmen; er liefert dann etwas ungeheuer Beruhigendes und Erhebendes; aber durchdringt auch die Seele mit entsprechender Demut und Bescheidenheit. - Was hat in diesem Sinne der Mensch in sich? Wahrhaftig einen höheren, einen göttlichen Menschen, von dem er sich lebendig durchdrungen fühlen kann, sich sagend: Er ist mein Führer in mir.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":238,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/15/l01/p014"}],"english":["GA 15/l01/p022","GA 15/l01/p023"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":238,"en_words":253,"ratio":1.06,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"evidence":["length"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.0,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6215,"original_word_count":6235,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"status":"unknown","warning":"No translator is recorded for this edition.
