It is not enough to simply observe the human being from the outside, so to speak. It must be clear that what comes to a conclusion with the change of teeth, so that something similar no longer takes place in the organism in the following phase of life, permeates the whole organism. If we follow such a fact correctly in a concrete process of knowledge, we will say: something happens from birth or conception to the change of teeth, which is connected with such formative forces that then discharge in what occurs during the change of teeth. And if we then turn to the more spiritual life of man, we will find that something equally far-reaching is taking place in the soul and spirit, just as something deeply invasive is taking place in the body with the change of teeth; we will find that, roughly at the same time in life that the change of teeth brings something to a conclusion in the body, something arises that is on the ascendant. We must learn to observe these phenomena just as we observe external physical phenomena. And if we observe them in the same spirit, we shall see that the whole configuration of the child's soul is such as to enable the child to form memories and recollections in a more conscious way; we shall see that the child is able to grasp the indeterminate, indistinct nature of his earlier ideas and perceptions and to give them sharper contours; we shall see that there is a mighty change in the whole way of thinking. to grasp in sharper contours the indeterminacy of earlier concepts, the lack of sharp contours of these concepts; one will see that a powerful change occurs in the whole way of the spiritual-soul life through the formation of concepts.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"13.

Es genügt ja nicht, daß man einfach sozusagen von außen her den Menschen betrachtet. Man muß sich klar sein, daß das, was mit dem Zahnwechsel einen Abschluß findet, so daß etwas Ähnliches in der folgenden Lebensepoche sich nicht mehr im Organismus abspielt, daß das den ganzen Organismus durchdringt. Man wird, wenn man eine solche Tatsache wirklich richtig in einem konkreten Erkenntnisprozeß verfolgt, sagen: Da geschieht etwas von der Geburt oder Empfängnis an bis zu dem Zahnwechsel hin, was mit solchen Bildungskräften zusammenhängt, die sich dann entladen in dem, was im Zahnwechsel auftritt. Und betrachten wir dann auf der anderen Seite das mehr seelisch-geistige Leben des Menschen, da werden wir finden, daß im Seelisch-Geistigen ebenso etwas Durchgreifendes geschieht, wie körperlich etwas tief Eingreifendes mit dem Zahnwechsel vorliegt; wir werden finden, daß ungefähr um dieselbe Lebenszeit, in der mit dem Zahnwechsel im Körperlichen etwas seinen Abschluß findet, sich etwas Aufsteigendes ergibt. Man muß nur lernen, diese Erscheinungen ebenso zu betrachten, wie man die äußerlichen Dinge physikalisch betrachtet. Und wenn man sie in demselben Geiste betrachtet, dann wird man sehen, daß da sich in der ganzen Konfiguration der Kindesseele das ergibt, was dem Kind möglich macht, in einer mehr bewußten Weise Gedächtnisvorstellungen, Erinnerungsvorstellungen zu bilden; man wird sehen, daß für das Kind überhaupt die Möglichkeit eintritt, die Unbestimmtheit der früheren Begriffe, das Nicht-scharf-Konturierte dieser Begriffe in schärferen Konturen zu fassen; man wird sehen, daß ein mächtiger Umschwung in der ganzen Art und Weise des geistig-seelischen Lebens durch die Begriffsbildung eintritt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":279,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/73a/1921-01-14/p012"}],"english":["GA 73a/1921-01-14/p012"],"method":"identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":279,"en_words":332,"ratio":1.19,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.06,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8353,"original_word_count":7905,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Scientific Disciplines and Anthroposophy","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA073a/English/SOL2024/19210114p01.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.
