Certainly, in order to gain a true knowledge of the Christ, those inspiring forces are absolutely necessary which are now being bestowed by the same super-human beings who formerly guided the Egypto-Chaldaeic epoch and who have now put themselves under the Christ. There is need of a new inspiration of this kind, of an inspiration which the great esoteric teachers of the middle ages had prepared from the thirteenth century onwards, and which from this time forth must ever come more and more into publicity. When man, according to the meaning of this science, prepares his soul aright for the knowledge of the spirit-world, he can then hear clairaudiently and he can see clairvoyantly what is revealed by the old Chaldaeic and Egyptian angel beings who are now again acting as spiritual leaders under the guidance of the Christ. That which humanity will some time later actually gain thereby, could only be prepared in the first centuries of Christianity and up to our times.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture III","site_heading":null,"date":null,"location":null,"word_count":193,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/15/l03/p029?edition=ASGB1921","alignment_confidence":"high","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/l03/p029"},{"lang":"en","edition":"AP1992","edition_basis":null,"is_original":false,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/15/l03/p029","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/l03/p029?edition=ASGB1921","paragraph_aligned":true}],"german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"l03","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 15/l03/p037","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/15/l03/p037"}],"bead_confidence":"high","pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"length_check":{"de_words":271,"en_words":335,"ratio":1.24,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

Es bedarf wahrhaftig, um den Christus wirklich kennenzulernen, derjenigen inspirierenden Kräfte, die jetzt auftreten durch die selber von dem Christus geführten alten ägyptischen und chaldäischen übermenschlichen Wesenheiten. Es bedarf einer solchen neuen Inspiration, der Inspiration, welche vorbereitet haben die großen Esoteriker des Mittelalters vom dreizehnten Jahrhundert an und die immer mehr und mehr von jetzt ab in die Öffentlichkeit dringen muß. Wenn sich im Sinne dieser Wissenschaft der Mensch in seiner Seele in richtiger Weise vorbereitet zur Erkenntnis der Geisteswelt, dann kann er hören hellhörend, sehen hellsichtig, was offenbaren die alten chaldäischen und ägyptischen Mächte, die jetzt geistige Leiter geworden sind unter der Anführung der Christus-Wesenheit. Was da der Menschheit einmal erstehen wird, das konnte in den ersten christlichen Jahrhunderten bis zu unserer Zeit nur vorbereitet werden. Daher dürfen wir sagen: Es wird künftig eine Christus-Idee leben in den Herzen der Menschen, an Größe mit nichts zu vergleichen, was bisher die Menschheit zu erkennen glaubte. Was entstanden ist als erster Impuls durch Christus und gelebt hat als Vorstellung von ihm bis heute - selbst bei den besten Vertretern des Christus-Prinzipes -, das ist nur eine Vorbereitung zu der wirklichen Erkenntnis des Christus. Es wäre recht sonderbar, könnte aber geschehen, daß denen, welche im Abendlande die Christus-Idee in solchem Sinne zum Ausdruck bringen, vorgeworfen würde, sie stünden nicht auf dem Boden der christlichen Tradition des Abendlandes. Denn diese christliche Tradition des Abendlandes reicht durchaus nicht aus, um den Christus für eine nächste Zukunft zu begreifen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":271,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/15/l03/p037"}],"english":["GA 15/l03/p029","GA 15/l03/p030"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":271,"en_words":335,"ratio":1.24,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.11,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":7626,"original_word_count":6840,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"status":"unknown","warning":"No translator is recorded for this edition.
