I divided the human organization—meaning the physical one—into the nerve-sense system, the rhythmic system, and the metabolic-limb system. I need not point out to you that I did not divide man into separate members placed side by side in space, although certain academic persons have accused[^6] me of such a caricature. I made it clear that these three systems interpenetrate each other. The nerve-sense system is called the “head system” because it is centered mainly in the head, but it spreads out into the whole body. The breathing and blood rhythms of the chest system naturally extend into the head organization, and so on. The division is functional, not local. An inward grasp of this threefold membering will give you true insight into the human being.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture III","site_heading":"Mathematics, Blood Experience, and the Birth of Modern Science","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.

Ich muß auf die Stelle dieses Buches «Von Seelenrätseln» verweisen. Dort habe ich die menschliche Organisation, unter der ich zunächst die physische Organisation verstehe, gegliedert in das Nerven-Sinnessystem, in das rhythmische System und in das Stoffwechsel-Gliedmaßensystem. Ich brauche hier nicht besonders darauf hinzuweisen, daß damit nicht etwa, wie das von universitärer Seite aus karikiert worden ist, eine solche Gliederung des Menschen gemeint ist, wo die einzelnen Glieder nebeneinandergestellt werden im Raume. Es wird Ihnen ja aus der Darstellung, die ich in meinem Buche «Von Seelenrätseln» gegeben habe, klar sein, daß diese Glieder ineinandergreifen, daß das Nerven-Sinnessystem, wenn man es Kopfsystem nennt, eben durchaus nur der Hauptsache nach im Haupte, im Kopfe lokalisiert ist, daß es aber eben im ganzen Menschen sich ausbreitet, daß diese drei Systeme ineinandergehen, daß natürlich auch der Atmungs- und Blutrhythmus von dem mittleren Menschen, von dem Brustmenschen herauf sich erstreckt in die Kopfesorganisation und so weiter. Die Gliederung ist also eine funktionelle, sie ist nicht eine lokale. Aber man lernt den Menschen doch durchschauen, wenn man ein inneres Verständnis für diese Gliederung hat.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":214,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/326/1922-12-26/p012"}],"english":["GA 326/1922-12-26/p015"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":214,"en_words":153,"ratio":0.71,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.0,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":4571,"original_word_count":4559,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Maria St. Goar","identified_edition":"AP1985","book_title":"The Origins of Natural Science","publisher":"Anthroposophic Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA326/English/AP1985/19221226p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
