If you educate a child of three or four so that you present what will influence the soul’s life, then the effect of this will appear in the eighth year; and people are usually careful to avoid doing anything with a child of four or five that may affect the soul life in an unhealthy way during the eighth or ninth year. Effects on the physical body take much longer to manifest, because the physical body must free itself of the soul and spirit. Therefore, something that influences the soul life at four or five may come to fruition in the physical body when that person is seven or eight times as old—for example, in the thirty-fifth year.

Wir brauchen da eine Pädagogik, die auf Menschenerkenntnis, auf Erkenntnis des Kindes beruht. Und wiederum, eine wirkliche Pädagogik, die auf Menschenerkenntnis beruht, wird in demjenigen Zeitalter vorhanden sein, wo man zum Beispiel erleben wird Doktorarbeiten von der Art: Ein Fall von Diabetes bei einem Vierzigjährigen zurückgeführt auf die Schädlichkeit des kindlichen Spieles im 3., 4. Lebensjahr. Dann wird man sehen, was es heißt: der ganze Mensch besteht aus Körper, Seele und Geist, und beim Kinde ist Körper, Seele und Geist noch eine Einheit. Geist und Seele werden später vom Körper frei, dann sind sie ein Dreifaches. Dann sind sozusagen im erwachsenen Menschen Geist, Seele und Leib auseinandergeschoben, und nur der Leib behält dasjenige, was in ihm während der Zeit der kindlichen Entwickelung eingezogen ist als Keim für das spätere Leben. Nun ist das Eigentümliche: In der Seele erleben wir Folgen, die eben in das Unterbewußte hineingezogen sind, bald; physisch im Körper erleben wir es sieben- bis achtmal später. Wenn Sie das Kind seelenhaft erziehen, das Seelenhafte im 4., 5. Lebensjahr so geltend machen, daß das Kind es aufgenommen hat und sein Seelenleben unter dem Einflusse steht, so kommt dieses zum Beispiel im 8. Lebensjahr zum Vorschein. Die Leute sehen noch darauf, daß man im 4., 5. Lebensjahr das nicht beibringt, was es nicht gesund macht im 8., 9. Lebensjahr. Die Seelenwirkung zeigt sich im 8., im 7. Lebensjahr. Die körperliche Wirkung zeigt sich — weil sich der Körper emanzipiert — langsamer, zeigt sich sieben- bis achtmal später. Für die seelische Entwickelung zeigen sich die Früchte eines Einflusses aus dem 5. Lebensjahr im 8. Lebensjahr; im Körper zeigen sie sich nach 35 Jahren, nach einer Zeit, die siebenmal größer ist. 5 mal 7 ist 35. So daß Krankheitserscheinungen, die auftreten infolge einer falschen, durch Spielen bewirkten seelischen Einwirkung im 3., 4. Lebensjahr, im Beginne der Vierziger- oder Ende der Dreifigerjahre auftreten.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":337,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/309/1924-04-14/p026"},{"locus":"GA 309/1924-04-14/p027","passage_number":27,"text":"Derjenige, der den ganzen Menschen kennenlernen will, muß auch das wissen, daß diese Emanzipation des Seelisch-Geistigen, die beim Erwachsenen eintritt gegenüber dem Vereintsein beim Kinde, nicht etwas Abstraktes ist, sondern sehr konkret ist, indem sich sogar der Zeitverlauf verschieben kann. Immer mehr und mehr wird die Zeit, die der Körper mehr braucht als die Seele, um etwas auszubilden. Der Körper bleibt zurück, und Schädlichkeiten des Körpers treten viel später ein als Schädlichkeiten der Seele. So ist es wiederum bei manchen Verfehlungen im kindlichen Lebensalter, wo man sehen kann, wie in den Flegeljahren im Seelischen gar manches Schlimme ist; aber es gleicht sich aus. Denn man hat da verhältnismäßig leichte Mittel, um selbst Leute noch zurechtzubringen, die in den Flegeljahren, wie man es nennt, recht ausgelassen sind; die werden manchmal noch ganz brave Philister. Das ist nicht etwas so Schlimmes. Aber der Körper entwickelt sich allmählich immer langsamer und immer langsamer; und wenn man längst das, was in den Flegeljahren im Seelisch-Geistigen aufgetreten ist, überwunden hat, hat man als Ergebnis der Flegeljahre noch am Ende des Lebens zu kämpfen mit Podagra als physischer Wirkung, die in langsamer Weise sich ergibt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":189,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/309/1924-04-14/p027"}],"beads":[{"from":[45,46],"to":[26],"confidence":"high","pairing_state":"verified"},{"from":[47,48],"to":[27],"confidence":"high","pairing_state":"verified"}],"note":"Paired by the paragraph aligner; each language numbers its own paragraphs.
