You will have seen, among the many and varied phenomena which these impulses bring forth, that there is one apparently fundamental tendency. Characterizing it to begin with in a more external manner, we may say: True it is that the most varied phenomena emerge, and the most varied demands are being made. Social and antisocial world-conceptions make their appearance. This or that action is taken, inspired by these social or antisocial world-conceptions. But if from the vantage-point now gained we put the question: “What is it that really underlies these things? What is it that is trying to work its way out to the surface in human destinies and human evolution?” Then (as I said, externally to begin with) we may characterize it as follows:—Man wants to have a social order, he wants to give the life of mankind in society a social structure within which, in harmony with the age of the spiritual soul, he may become conscious of what he is and knows himself to be as Man—in his human dignity, in his significance and force as Man. Within the social order, he wants to find himself as Man.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":214,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/186/1918-12-13/p003","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1918-12-13","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 186/1918-12-13/p003","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/186/1918-12-13/p003"}],"bead_confidence":"high","length_check":{"de_words":297,"en_words":330,"ratio":1.11,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

And man will only be able rightly to introduce these conscious impulses into his life if in the course of this age he becomes more and more conscious of what he as Man *is* and *can be* within the social structure—the structure of Society or of the State or whatever it may be—in which he lives.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":107,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/186/1918-12-13/p004","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1918-12-13","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 186/1918-12-13/p003","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/186/1918-12-13/p003"}],"bead_confidence":"high","length_check":{"de_words":297,"en_words":330,"ratio":1.11,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

Wir können sagen: Gewiß, die mannigfaltigsten Erscheinungen treten auf, die mannigfaltigsten Forderungen werden aufgestellt; soziale und antisoziale Weltanschauungen treten auf. Dies oder jenes wird getan aus solchen sozialen und antisozialen Weltanschauungen heraus. Wenn man aber von dem Gesichtspunkte aus, den wir nun gewonnen haben, zusammenfassen will mancherlei in die Frage: Was liegt denn eigentlich zugrunde, was will sich denn da an die Oberfläche der Menschengeschicke und der Menschenentwickelung arbeiten? - so wird man, allerdings zunächst äußerlich, die Sache so charakterisieren können: Der Mensch will auch eine soziale Ordnung haben, er will dem gesellschaftlichen Zusammenleben eine soziale Struktur geben, innerhalb welcher er sich, angemessen unserem Zeitalter der Bewußtseinsseele, bewußt werden kann, was er in seiner Würde als Mensch, in seiner Bedeutung als Mensch, in seiner Kraft als Mensch, was er als Mensch wissen kann. Er will sich als Mensch finden in dieser sozialen Ordnung. Diejenigen Impulse, die früher instinktiv waren, die haben den Menschen angeleitet, dies oder jenes zu tun, dies oder jenes zu denken, zu empfinden. Diese instinktiven Impulse wollen sich in bewußte Impulse verwandeln. Diese bewußten Impulse im Zeitalter der Bewußtseinsseele, das im fünfzehnten Jahrhundert seinen Anfang genommen hat und bis ins vierte Jahrtausend währen wird, wird der Mensch nur dann richtig in sein Leben hereinbringen können, wenn er sich immer mehr in diesem Zeitalter bewußt wird, was er als Mensch ist und als Mensch vermag auch innerhalb der sozialen Struktur, in der er gesellschaftlich, staatlich oder dergleichen lebt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":297,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/186/1918-12-13/p003"}],"beads":[{"from":[2,3,4],"to":[3],"confidence":"high"}],"note":"Paired by the paragraph aligner; each language numbers its own paragraphs.
