We come to realize or to have to realize that this population, which was left behind in Europe during the migration from Atlantis to the East, received its external and internal knowledge, its insights into the spiritual world and into the social, economic and commercial order of the world through the function of the physical organization. The population of Europe is essentially characterized by the fact that the main part of these Europeans absorbed what they absorbed primarily through the instrument of their body. The people who migrated further east were such that they absorbed more with the soul; they neglected, because it was not given to them to develop the physical function, everything that was to be grasped directly from the world and from the human order through the physical. The Europeans used the physical tools of their brain and the rest of their physical selves to create what they considered their culture. And so we have the strange phenomenon that that which in Asia also developed as Christianity out of a wonderful primal wisdom migrated to Europe and was received under very different conditions in Europe than it was formed in Asia. In Asia it was only formed by the soul; in Europe it was received by the body. Why could it be received by the body? It could be absorbed by the physical because the European bodies were actually formed in such a way that they could become the right tools for the spiritual. The bodies of the Asians were not formed in this way. The population of Europe had retarded in order to make the body receptive to the assimilation of knowledge, of will impulses and so on, under the climatic and other cultural conditions of old Europe.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Twelfth Lecture","site_heading":"Consciousness Evolution: Atlantean Divergence and Christian Incarnation","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.

Wir kommen darauf, einzusehen oder einsehen zu müssen, daß diese bei der Wanderung von der Atlantis nach dem Osten in Europa zurückgebliebene Bevölkerung dasjenige, was sie empfing an äußeren und inneren Erkenntnissen, was sie empfing an Einsichten über die geistige Welt und an Einsichten über die soziale und ökonomische und kommerzielle Ordnung der Welt, daß sie das empfing durch die Funktion der physischen Organisation. Auf dem Grunde von Europas Bevölkerung ruht im wesentlichen das, daß die hauptsächlichsten dieser Europäer das, was sie aufnahmen, vor allem durch das Werkzeug ihres Körpers aufnahmen. Die weiter nach Osten hinübergewanderten Menschen, die waren so geartet, daß sie mehr mit der Seele aufnahmen; sie vernachlässigten, weil es ihnen gar nicht gegeben war, die körperliche Funktion auszubilden, alles das, was gerade von der Welt und von der menschlichen Ordnung begriffen werden soll durch das Körperliche. Die Europäer verwendeten zu dem, was sie als ihre Kultur begründen sollten, das _ physische Werkzeug ihres Gehirns, die physischen Werkzeuge der übrigen Körperlichkeit. Und so haben wir das merkwürdige Phänomen vor uns, daß dasjenige, was drüben in Asien auch als Christentum sich herausgebildet hat aus einer wunderbaren Urweisheit, nach Europa herüberwanderte und unter ganz andern Bedingungen aufgenommen wurde in Europa, als es in Asien ausgebildet wurde. In Asien wurde es nur ausgebildet vom Seelischen, in Europa wurde es aufgenommen vom Körperlichen. Warum konnte es da aufgenommen werden vom Körperlichen? Es konnte aufgenommen werden vom Körperlichen, weil tatsächlich die europäischen Körper so gebildet waren, daß sie richtige Werkzeuge des Geistigen werden konnten. Die Leiber, die Körper der Asiaten waren nicht so gebildet. Die Bevölkerung Europas war zurückgeblieben, um unter den klimatischen und sonstigen Kulturverhältnissen des alten Europa den Körper gewissermaßen empfänglich zu machen für die Aufnahme von Erkenntnissen, von Willensimpulsen und so weiter.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":299,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/196/1920-02-08/p010"}],"english":["GA 196/1920-02-08/p010"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":299,"en_words":299,"ratio":1.0,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","anchors","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.03,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5473,"original_word_count":5331,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Spiritual and Social Changes in the Development of Humanity","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA196/English/SOL2024/19200208p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
