As you know from earlier discussions, the head as it appears in a particular incarnation is supposed to have reached its final stage in that incarnation. The head is the part most strongly exposed to death. For the way our head is formed is, for the most part, the consequence of our life in our previous incarnation. On the other hand, the formation of our next head in our next incarnation is the consequence of the life of our present body. A while ago I expressed this briefly by saying: Our body, apart from our head, metamorphoses itself into our head in our next incarnation, while our next body is growing towards us; whereas our present head is the metamorphosed body of our previous incarnation, the rest of our body has grown towards us more or less—there are varying degrees—out of what we have inherited.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture XXII","site_heading":"The Dead, Materialism, and Spiritual Concepts","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Dieses ist, wie Sie aus früheren Betrachtungen wissen, in der Form, wie es auftritt in irgendeiner Inkarnation, eigentlich dazu bestimmt, in dieser Inkarnation seinen Abschluß zu finden.

Denn wie unser Haupt gebildet ist — erinnern Sie sich an frühere Betrachtungen -, wie unser Haupt organisiert ist, ist es im wesentlichen das Ergebnis unseres Lebens in der früheren Inkarnation. Wie dagegen unser nächstes Haupt, unser nächster Kopf gebildet sein wird in der folgenden Inkarnation, das ist ein Ergebnis unseres jetzigen Leibeslebens. Kurz habe ich das ausgedrückt vor einiger Zeit, indem ich sagte: Der Leib des Menschen, außer dem Haupte, wandelt sich um zum Haupt in der nächsten Inkarnation, und der nächste Leib wächst zu, während das jetzige Haupt, das wir tragen, der umgewandelte Leib der vorhergehenden Inkarnation ist, und uns unser übriger Leib jetzt aus den Vererbungsverhältnissen mehr oder weniger — das alles ist gradweise verschieden — zugewachsen ist.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":161,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/173c/1917-01-21/p013"}],"english":["GA 173c/1917-01-21/p013"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":161,"en_words":150,"ratio":0.93,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.97,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":6085,"original_word_count":6271,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"RSP1988","book_title":"The Karma of Untruthfulness II","publisher":"Rudolf Steiner Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA173c/English/RSP1988/19170121p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"no_translator_named","note":"Neither the lecture's own page nor rsarchive's lecture list names a translator for it.
