They say to themselves: We bring with us a certain amount of judgment that we can pour out on other people. These connect us with life before birth. But then we only acquire useful judgments in the realm of external, namely economic life, when we join with others in a lasting way, when we form associations with them, when we judge together with them, when we, so to speak, piece our judgment and their judgments together. We cannot communicate with them, but in order for our judgment to exist at all, we have to piece our judgment together with theirs. Where does this come from? That is the big question. It comes from the fact that we as human beings are really at least a dual being. We are actually a threefold being, but I will not take that into consideration today. You can read more about it in my book 'Von Seelenrätseln'; but I will first take the dual nature into consideration by summarizing the second and third more. What we bring from the spiritual world into this world, what we can pour out over man, that forms our head, the head that is now really more than a mere expression, a mere tool, that really is an image of what we were before birth, that also expresses our soul , and thus does more than the rest of the organism, which, when we are not moving, does not truly visualize our soul directly in activity, and does not truly express our soul directly as the face and head express our soul.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Twelfth Lecture","site_heading":"Spiritual Crisis, Pre-existence, and Social Renewal","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.

Er sagt sich: Wir bringen eine gewisse Summe von Urteilen mit, die wir überschütten, die wir ausschütten können an andere Menschen. Die verbinden uns mit dem Leben vor der Geburt. Dann aber eignen wir uns brauchbare Urteile auf dem Gebiete des äußeren, namentlich wirtschaftlichen Lebens nur an, wenn wir uns mit anderen bleibend zusammentun, wenn wir Assoziationen mit ihnen bilden, wenn wir zusammen mit ihnen urteilen, wenn wir gewissermaßen unser Urteil und ihre Urteile zusammenstückeln. Wir können ihnen nichts mitteilen, sondern wir müssen, damit überhaupt unser Urteil bestehen kann, unser Urteil mit ihrem zusammenstückeln. Woher kommt denn das? Das ist die große Frage. Das kommt davon, daß wir als Menschen wirklich mindestens ein Doppelwesen sind. Wir sind eigentlich ein dreifaches Wesen, aber darauf will ich heute nicht Rücksicht nehmen, Sie können das Genauere darüber in meinem Buche «Von Seelenrätseln» nachlesen; aber ich will zunächst auf das Doppelwesen Rücksicht nehmen, indem ich das zweite und dritte mehr zusammenfasse. — Was wir aus der geistigen Welt heraus bringen in diese Welt herein, was wir über den Menschen ausschütten können, das formt an uns das Haupt, den Kopf, der nun wirklich mehr ist als ein bloßer Ausdruck, ein bloßes Werkzeug, der wirklich ist ein Abbild desjenigen, was wir vor der Geburt waren, der unser Seelisches ja auch physiognomisch ausdrückt, also mehr tut als der übrige Organismus, der nun wahrhaftig nicht gerade unser Seelisches, wenn wir uns nicht bewegen, also unmittelbar unser Seelisches in Regsamkeit vergegenwärtigt, der wahrhaftig nicht unser Seelisches unmittelbar ausdrückt, wie das Gesicht, der Kopf unser Seelisches ausdrückt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":276,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/198/1920-07-09/p020"}],"english":["GA 198/1920-07-09/p020"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":276,"en_words":288,"ratio":1.04,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","anchors","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":9110,"original_word_count":8977,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Healing Factors for the Social Organism","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA198/English/SOL2024/19200709p01.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.
