One of these currents is that of the physical world: We see how physical entities – headed by the physical human body – develop up to a certain level of perfection. Then there comes a point in time when this physical human body has become so perfect that it is now able to accommodate this spiritual-soul entity, which has developed to such an extent that it could find expression in the physical human body. since that spirit, that soul, has moved within the human body from the imperfect form that that body had, up to the present human form, the soul and spirit itself has worked in the human body through long, long periods of time. And through the forces through which they worked, the soul and spirit within the human body developed this body ever higher and higher, to its present form. Soul and spirit are, so to speak, the transformers and redevelopers of the human body. From that time on, we can also characterize the form of the physical human body, as it existed at that time, suitable for receiving the soul-spiritual, today, without any religious document, but only from the developed abilities of the seer.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"32.

Dann kommt ein Zeitpunkt, wo dieser physische Menschenleib so vollkommen geworden ist, dass er nun aufnehmen konnte diese geistig-seelische Wesenheit, die sich so weit entwickelt hatte, dass sie im physischen Menschenleibe einen Ausdruck finden konnte, und seit jener Zeit, seit dieser Geist, diese Seele im Menschenleibe von jener unvollkommenen Gestalt, die jener Leib hatte, eingezogen ist, bis herauf zu der heutigen Menschengestalt arbeitet Seele und Geist selbst im Menschenleibe durch lange, lange Zeiträume hindurch. Und durch die Kräfte, durch die sie wirkten, wurde somit von Seele und Geist innerhalb des Menschenleibes dieser selbst immer höher und höher entwickelt, bis zu seiner heutigen Gestalt. Seele und Geist sind also sozusagen die Umgestalter und Fortgestalter des Menschenleibes.
