The leaders of the mysteries thus set great store upon a schooling in human love and unselfishness. They knew that through the wisdom of the mysteries a pupil could indeed unite with his god even though he were insufficiently prepared, but they realized that he could do so only at the price of increased egotism. By withdrawing from the sense world and entering the spiritual world he could experience the human self, the human ego, far more strongly than is usually the case. The men in these mysteries who, by strengthening their inner lives perceived God, remained useful members of human society only if they had first passed through a spiritual development grounded in a sound preparation of the moral life. This, the Dionysian initiation, led man to experience within himself what lies at the base of all human nature, that is, Dionysos.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"11.

Und gerade deshalb legten die Führer der Mysterien einen so großen Wert auf eine gute, entsprechende Vorbereitung, denn sie wussten: Wenn ein Unvorbereiteter kommt, ein solcher, der nicht zur Selbstlosigkeit und zur menschlichen Liebe heranerzogen worden ist, bevor er seinen Geistesweg begonnen hat, der nicht eine gute Grundlage hat, dann vereinigt er sich durch das Mysterienwesen zwar mit seinem Gotte, aber er würde dies eben erkaufen müssen mit einem egoistischen, mit einem selbstsüchtig werdenden Wesen. Denn dadurch, dass man sich aus dem Miterleben der äußeren Welt zurückzieht und in sich selbst lebt, erlebt man das menschliche Selbst verstärkt; die Egoität, wenn ich den Ausdruck gebrauchen darf, erlebt man verstärkt. Und so waren die Gottschauer dieser Mysterien, die dieses Gottschauen erlebten durch eine Verstärkung, eine Erkraftung ihres inneren Selbstes, nur befähigt, aufgrund eines guten inneren Kernes in einer guten moralischen Lebensweise zu bleiben trotz der Verstärkung ihres Egoismus. Das war die eine Art [der Mysterienschulung], und zwar jene, [durch] die [die Schüler] - ohne die Einweihung - ein höheres Schauen erreichten.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":209,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/69c/1913-11-15/p027"}],"english":["GA 69c/1913-11-15/p026"],"method":"reader","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":209,"en_words":161,"ratio":0.77,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 69c/1913-11-15/p027"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.68,"band":"short","note":"This witness is materially shorter than the original (below 75%).
