What I had to say to you yesterday was as follows: We first turned our attention to the three faculties of the human soul that are more devoted to knowledge. We pointed out that there are essentially three cognitive faculties in the human soul: first, what is the faculty of memory, then what is intelligence, and finally what is sensory activity. Now I drew your attention to the fact that these three soul faculties can only be understood by looking at their development. In order to understand memory, which is relatively one of the more recent abilities of the human being, we must turn our gaze back to times when the Earth was not yet what it is today, when the Earth was undergoing its development as the Moon, which preceded the Earth. So that the first rudiments of what has now become our faculty of memory are to be sought in the ancient lunar period and there appeared, not as memory, but as the dream-like imagination that pervades the human being, which I have often described in other contexts. What was dream-like imagination in the ancient moon period in the beings from which man developed has become the faculty of memory in the earth period. This memory, as I have already mentioned, is more closely interwoven with the physical body than are the other cognitive faculties of the soul. Intelligence is less closely interwoven with the physical body. It is more detached from it, as I described yesterday. But to discover its first rudiments, one must go further back than the old moon time; one must go back to the old sun time and then find the first rudiment of what is present in us today as intelligence in dormant inspiration. As for that which is most divorced from our physical nature, as I explained yesterday, one must go back furthest, although one is least inclined to believe this from the materialistic point of view of our time: for sensory activity, one must go back to the old Saturn time. And one finds as the first origin of this sensory activity, both beings, from which man was later formed, a dull intuition.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":394,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/196/1920-02-14/p003","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/SOL2024/19200214p01.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.

Deeper down, what underlies memory is already very much connected to the physical organization. In reality, memory (red) is connected to the lowest nervous organisms and to the rest of the organism. I could then create transitions between sensory activity and intelligence by drawing this (indigo) here as a transition. You know that we also have concepts and ideas that are, so to speak, of a descriptive nature. While I have to draw the sensory activity as such in blue, I would have to draw an indigo here as a transition. For the more abstract concepts I would have to draw green, and for that which is in us as memory-based concepts, I would have to draw yellow as a transition from green to red through orange. In this way, I would have to draw the human being in its organization in relation to the ability to perceive, going from the outside in. In the succession of these colors, if you imagine the organization of eyes and ears with blue nuances and that the activity of the senses passes over into the intelligence, the indigo towards the green, lightening through the yellow to the red towards the memory, you get a kind of scheme that, however, very strongly reflects the reality of what the human soul's cognitive abilities or cognitive abilities are.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":260,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/196/1920-02-14/p006","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/SOL2024/19200214p01.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.

Das, was ich Ihnen gestern zu sagen hatte, bestand in folgendem: Wir haben unseren Blick gewendet zunächst auf die drei mehr der Erkenntnis gewidmeten Fähigkeiten der Menschenseele. Wir haben darauf aufmerksam gemacht, daß in dieser Menschenseele wesentlich drei erkennende Fähigkeiten sind, zunächst dasjenige, was Erinnerungsfähigkeit oder Gedächtnis ist, dann dasjenige, was Intelligenz ist, und dann dasjenige, was Sinnestätigkeit ist. Nun machte ich Sie darauf aufmerksam, daß diese drei Seelenfähigkeiten nur verstanden werden können, wenn man auf ihre Entwickelung blickt. Um das Gedächtnis zu verstehen, das verhältnismäßig eine der jüngeren Fähigkeiten der menschlichen Wesenheit ist, muß man aber doch den Blick zurückwenden zu Zeiten, in denen die Erde noch nicht dasjenige war, was sie heute ist, in denen die Erde ihre Entwickelung als der der Erde vorangehende Mond durchmachte. So daß die ersten Anlagen zu dem, was heute in uns Gedächtnisfähigkeit geworden ist, in der alten Mondenzeit zu suchen sind und dort aufgetreten sind nicht als Gedächtnis, sondern als die den Menschen durchsetzende traumhafte Imagination, die ich ja in andern Zusammenhängen öfter beschrieben habe. Was also bei jenen Wesen, aus denen der Mensch geworden ist, während der alten Mondenzeit traumhafte Imagination war, das ist während der Erdenzeit die Fähigkeit des Gedächtnisses geworden. Dieses Gedächtnis, sagte ich Ihnen, ist von allen erkennenden Seelenfähigkeiten am meisten verwoben mit der physischen Leiblichkeit. Die Intelligenz ist schon weniger verwoben mit der physischen Leiblichkeit. Sie ist mehr davon losgelöst in der Art, wie ich das gestern beschrieben habe. Um aber ihre ersten Anlagen zu entdecken, muß man weiter zurückgehen als bis zur alten Mondenzeit, man muß zurückgehen bis zur alten Sonnenzeit und findet dann die erste Anlage zu dem, was heute in uns als Intelligenz vorhanden ist, in der schlafenden Inspiration. Am weitesten zurückgehen muß man für dasjenige, was am meisten, wie ich gestern ausgeführt habe, losgelöst ist von unserer Leiblichkeit, obwohl man das am wenigsten glauben will aus der materialistischen Anschauung unserer Zeit heraus: Für die Sinnestätigkert muß man zurückgehen bis zur alten Saturnzeit. Und man findet als denersten Ursprung dieser Sinnestätigkeit beiden Wesen, aus denen nachher der Mensch geworden ist, eine dumpfe Intuition.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":381,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/196/1920-02-14/p003"},{"locus":"GA 196/1920-02-14/p004","passage_number":4,"text":"Weiter haben wir gesehen, daß, indem wir diese drei Seelenfähigkeiten in uns tragen, wir in der Organisation, die zugrunde liegt diesen Seelenfähigkeiten, zugleich die Beherberger sind für Wesen höherer Hierarchien.
