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 Erinnerungsaufzeichnungen von Teilnehmenden» (From participants' records written from memory). Rudolf Steiner Verlag Gesamtverzeichnis 2022, volume subtitle. The translation is the maintainer's, not a published one.

Strength flows down upon us from the higher Devachan, and it will strengthen our inner being if we transform our power into virtue, into active virtue. True, active virtue arises when we transform all the qualities that emerge in our lower nature through the power of our will, so that they become forces that can work as spiritual forces in the world.
