It was designed for man by the evolving Jahve-Godhead that on his awaking the etheric weaving and living which has been described should dip down into both the etheric body and the physical body. You must not be horrified that it is Lucifer who weaves with us while we live in the fine etheric element from going to sleep to awaking. I have already in various lectures indicated that it is quite false if people think they must be on their guard against Lucifer in every sphere of life. That is a materialistic prejudice. Spiritual beings are not there because they actually ought not to be there. And most people act in a wrong may towards the Luciferic and the Ahrimanic beings when they seem to wish to have nothing to do with what is Luciferic or Ahrimanic. It is a matter of appreciating beings where they are in their element and knowing that they only work harmfully in elements where they do not belong. So it is right for earthly life that Lucifer lives and weaves, from our going to sleep to awaking, in the element of which we men are to know nothing, since we already have the other knowledge which is an effect of the tasting of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Es war dem Menschen durch die sich fortentwickelnden Jahve-Gottheiten bestimmt, daß beim Aufwachen jenes angedeutete ätherische Weben und Leben untertaucht sowohl in den ätherischen Leib wie in den physischen Leib des Menschen. Sie müssen nicht erschrecken darüber, daß Luzifer es ist, der mit uns webt, während wir im ätherischen, feinen Elemente selber leben vom Einschlafen bis zum Aufwachen. Ich habe ja schon in Münchner Vorträgen einmal angedeutet, daß das ganz falsch ist, wenn man glaubt, man müsse sich vor Luzifer auf allen Gebieten des Lebens nur in acht nehmen. Das ist ein materialistisches Vorurteil. Geistige Wesenheiten sind nicht dazu da, daß sie eigentlich nicht da sein sollten. Und es benehmen sich die meisten gegenüber dem Luziferischen und Ahrimanischen unrichtigerweise so, als ob sie nur ja nicht etwas zu tun haben wollten mit dem Luziferischen und Ahrimanischen. Darum handelt es sich aber gar nicht, das Leben so einzurichten, daß man nichts zu tun hat mit dem Luziferischen und Ahrimanischen. Es handelt sich darum, daß man auch diese Wesenheiten da gelten läßt, wo sie in ihrem Elemente sind, und weiß, daß sie schädlich nur wirken in den Elementen, wo sie nicht hingehören. So ist es für das Erdenleben recht, daß Luzifer lebt und webt vom Einschlafen bis zum Aufwachen in dem Elemente, von dem wir Menschen nichts wissen sollen, da wir schon das andere Wissen haben, das eine Wirkung vom Genusse des Baumes der Erkenntnis des Guten und des Bösen ist.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":245,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/162/1915-07-25/p014"}],"english":["GA 162/1915-07-25/p014"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":245,"en_words":227,"ratio":0.93,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.99,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5061,"original_word_count":5138,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"TS1989","book_title":"The Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA162/English/TS1989/19150725p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"source_says_translator_unknown","note":"The source page itself says the translator is unknown.
