But a new element is introduced that can only come from the spirit of anthroposophically oriented spiritual science. That is, to what was always traditional in the earlier confessions, to the afterlife, is added the decisive view of the prenatal, so that we are clear that in the child that grows up, what comes down from the spiritual worlds is gradually revealed. We came down from the spiritual worlds at a certain time. The gods sent us into this world, and we carry out what the gods have placed in us. The children come down later; they have been in the spiritual world longer. We look to what shines out of the children's souls. They carry messages from the spiritual worlds, where they were longer than we were. A feeling that something is coming down from the spiritual world into the present, that falls into the children, that the teacher first has to unravel, that a giving, which one so gladly does, is joined by a taking - that can only come from the spirit of true spiritual science, when the idea of pre-existence is joined by the idea of post-existence in living feeling.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Thirteenth Lecture","site_heading":"Ideas and Growth Forces: Bridging Prenatal and Posthumous Existence","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.

Aber ein neues Element tritt da ein, das nur aus dem Geiste anthroposophisch orientierter Geisteswissenschaft herauskommen kann. Das ist, daß zu dem, was bei den früheren Bekenntnissen immer traditionell war, zu dem Nachtodlichen, der entschiedene Hinblick zu dem Vorgeburtlichen hinzutritt, daß wir uns klar sind, daß in dem Kinde, das heranwächst, sich nach und nach dasjenige enthüllt, was aus den geistigen Welten herunterkommt. Wir sind zu einer bestimmten Zeit aus den geistigen Welten heruntergekommen. Die Götter haben uns in diese Welt gesandt, und wir führen dasjenige aus, was die Götter in uns gelegt haben. Die Kinder kommen später herunter, sie waren länger in der geistigen Welt drinnen. Wir schauen hin auf dasjenige, was aus den Kinderseelen herausleuchtet. Botschaft aus den geistigen Welten, in denen sie länger waren als wir, tragen sie uns zu. Ein Gefühl dafür, daß aus der geistigen Welt etwas in die Gegenwart herunterkommt, das in die Kinder hineinfällt, das der Lehrer zunächst zu enträtseln hat, daß zu dem Schenken, das man so gerne tut, ein Nehmen hinzutritt — das kann nur kommen aus dem Geiste wahrer Geisteswissenschaft, wenn zu der Postexistenzidee die Präexistenzidee im lebendigen Erfühlen hinzutrritt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":204,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/198/1920-07-10/p023"}],"english":["GA 198/1920-07-10/p023"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":204,"en_words":211,"ratio":1.03,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.05,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5786,"original_word_count":5526,"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/SOL2024/19200710p01.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.
