But lest the impression made upon you by what has been said should lead to any misunderstanding, I will mention yet another fact which may mitigate anything that was painful in that impression. Although a genuine occultist realises that Anthroposophy must enter into the spiritual life of our present time in order that the man of the future may be able to use the organ for remembering past lives and remain physically in good health, nevertheless it cannot be said categorically that a man who in this epoch is not ready to accept Anthroposophy will suffer in his following incarnations in the sense referred to above. For a long time to come it will still be possible for a human being, even if he has neglected to use this organ in the present life, to put this right in the next, for there will be several more opportunities for him to regain health and acquire anthroposophical knowledge. The time will come, however, when this possibility will cease.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"I.

Obgleich der wahre Okkultist sehen kann, daß die Geisteswissenschaft in das spirituelle Leben unserer gegenwärtigen Zeit eintreten muß, damit der Mensch der Zukunft das Organ für die Erinnerung gebrauchen könne und physisch in guter Gesundheit bleibe, so kann doch zu gleicher Zeit durchaus nicht behauptet werden, daß ein Mensch, der in der jetzigen Zeit nicht bereit ist, Geisteswissenschaft aufzunehmen, für seine folgende Inkarnation auf die vorher beschriebene Weise verloren sein wird. Es wird für lange Zeit in der Zukunft einem Menschen immer noch möglich sein, wenn er auch das Angedeutete vernachlässigt hat, nämlich in diesem Leben sich den Gebrauch des Organs für die Erinnerung anzueignen, dies im nächsten Leben gutzumachen, denn er wird noch einige Gelegenheiten haben, seine Gesundheit wiederherzustellen und geisteswissenschaftliche Wahrheiten zu erlangen.
