And just as we can follow the forces of Uriel and see how they stream into man through the course of the year, so must we do with Raphael, who pours his forces into the forces of nature in spring, as I have described. I had to show you how the Easter Imagination is completed through the teaching that Raphael, the great cosmic physician, can give to mankind. For precisely when we allow all that Raphael brings about, working in the springtime forces of nature as Uriel does in summer—when we allow all this to work on us at Easter through the spiritual hearing of Inspiration, then we have the crowning of all the truths of healing for mankind.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"V.

So müssen wir uns alles das vorstellen. Im Winter, nachdem Uriel sozusagen seinen Weg um die Erde gemacht hat, strömt uns das durch die Erde zu und macht Halt in unserem Haupte. Und in unserem Haupte werden dann die Kräfte, die sonst in der Natur draußen sind, die wir Urielkräfte nennen können, zu den Kräften, die eigentlich uns zum Bürger des ganzen Kosmos machen, die wirklich in unserem Haupte wieder erstehen lassen ein Abbild des Kosmos, die in unserem Haupte erleuchtend wirken, so daß wir eben Besitzer der menschlichen Weisheit sind. Und wir sprechen richtig, wenn wir sagen: Uriel steigt nieder vom Sommer gegen den Herbst bis zum Winter, Uriel beginnt im Winter aufzusteigen, und von dieser ab- und aufsteigenden Kraft des Uriel haben wir die innerlichen Kräfte unseres Menschenhauptes. Und sehen Sie, so wie Uriel zur Hochsommerzeit in der Natur wirkt, wie er zur Winterzeit im Menschenkopfe wirkt, so daß der Mensch wirklich auch in dieser Beziehung ein Mikrokosmos gegenüber dem Makrokosmos ist — wir verstehen den Menschen nur, wenn wir ihn nicht bloß natürlich, sondern geistig in die Welt hineinstellen —, so wie wir da verfolgen die von UÜtiel ausstrahlenden, im Menschen durch den Jahreslauf einströmenden Kräfte, so müssen wir dasselbe zum Beispiel von Raphael sagen, der seine Kräfte einströmen läßt während des Frühlings in die Naturkräfte, wie ich Ihnen das geschildert habe. So daß ich Ihnen schildern mußte, daß die Oster-Imagination ergänzt wird durch die Lehre, die Raphael, ich möchte sagen, als der große Weltenmediziner der Menschheit geben kann. Denn gerade wenn wir alles dasjenige, was Raphael vollzieht während der Frühlingszeit, webend in den Naturkräften wie Uriel während der Sommerzeit, wenn wir das durch das inspirierte geistige Ohr zur Osterzeit auf uns wirken lassen, dann kommt, wie ich Ihnen dargestellt habe, die Krönung aller Heilwahrheiten über den Menschen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":366,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/229/1923-10-13/p011"}],"english":["GA 229/1923-10-13/p014","GA 229/1923-10-13/p015","GA 229/1923-10-13/p016"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":366,"en_words":340,"ratio":0.93,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","anchors","reader"],"reader_german":["GA 229/1923-10-13/p011"],"reader_part":true},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.0,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":5041,"original_word_count":5029,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Charles Davy and Dorothy S.
