We must be deeply conscious of the fact that this Christmas Meeting constituted an entirely new foundation of the Anthroposophical Society. And there must be no returning to old customs, to old habits of thought in relation to the fundamental changes that have come about in the method of handling the truths of Anthroposophy. The contents of the lectures given here since Christmas should not really be passed on to any audience otherwise than by *reading an exact transcript of what has been said here*. A free exposition of this particular subject matter is not possible at the present stage. If such a course were proposed I should have to take exception to it. These difficult and weighty matters entail grave consideration of every word and every sentence spoken here, in order that *the limits* within which the statements are made shall be absolutely clear. If anyone proposes to communicate the subject-matter to an audience in some different way, he must first get in touch with me and enquire whether this would be possible. For in future a united spirit must prevail through the whole Anthroposophical Movement. Otherwise we shall fall into the same mistakes that were made by a number of members who thought it their duty to elaborate anthroposophical truths in terms of modern science, and we have experienced to the full how much harm was done to the Movement by what was then “achieved”—I say the word with inverted commas!","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"The Study of Problems Connected with Karma","site_heading":"Karma's Hidden Work: Sleep, Memory, and Cosmic Intelligence","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.

Es handelt sich ja immer darum, daß eingesehen werde, wie schwerwiegend eigentlich alles das genommen werden muß, was mit unserer Weihnachtstagung zusammenhängt. Es sollte das Bewußtsein wirklich ein durchgreifendes sein, daß mit dieser Weihnachtstagung im Grunde eine völlige Neugründung der Anthroposophischen Gesellschaft stattgefunden hat. Und es sollte durchaus so sein, daß nicht in die alten Gewohnheiten, auch nicht in die alten Denkgewohnheiten zurückgefallen werde gegenüber den starken Veränderungen, die in der neuerlichen Handhabung des anthroposophischen Weisheitsgutes eingetreten sind. Wir müssen uns nämlich darüber auch klar sein, daß dasjenige, was gerade in den Betrachtungen, die seit der Weihnachtstagung hier gepflogen werden, gesagt worden ist, nicht anders von jemand anderem gegenüber dieser oder jener Zuhörerschaft vorgebracht werden kann, nicht in einer anderen Weise, als höchstens, wenn dazu Vorlagen vorhanden sind, durch Vorlesen des genauen Wortlautes, der hier gesprochen wird.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":189,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/236/1924-06-22/p004"},{"locus":"GA 236/1924-06-22/p005","passage_number":5,"text":"In einer freien Weise kann das nicht wiedergegeben werden zunächst.
