Record: listeners' notes. Written from listeners' notes, summaries, or memory rather than a shorthand transcript. The wording is the note-taker's as much as Steiner's: weigh a single striking phrase here far more cautiously than the same phrase in a stenographic volume, and do not rest an argument on one word. Evidence: «Nach zum Teil bruchstückhaften Mitschriften» (From transcripts that are in part fragmentary). The publisher's description of the volume, as mirrored on AnthroWiki (GA 246), which also speaks of "fragmentarischen Hörernotizen und Vortragszusammenfassungen". The translation is the maintainer's, not a published one.
With windows, the dome is perceived in connection with the soul of nature. But up there is something that is meant to go out into the distance. You will find everything painted there that you have ever come to know in anthroposophy; but not as an allegory, everything is understood artistically. It is important that there [illegible word in shorthand] is a painting created from the spirit.
