We look at him. His soul and spirit speak from the depths of his being. It speaks from his face, from each of his movements. We do not have the whole person before us if we do not see this spiritual-soul in the natural-physical. Natural science has brought it to a high level of perfection over the last three to four centuries, especially in the nineteenth century. Anthroposophy does not want to rely on laymanship or dilettantism, although it is for everyone. The anthroposophical researcher wants to exclude any laymanship or dilettantism in the field of natural science. He wants to see genuine science and genuine methodology developed in the field of natural science. But in doing so, he is particularly aware of how external natural science, which has rightly celebrated such triumphs and has made such a significant impact on practical life, how this natural science represents something external that can be compared to the physical body of the human being.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"The Essence of Anthroposophy","site_heading":null,"date":"1922-01-23","location":null,"word_count":212,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/80a/1922-01-23/p051","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:identity","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Essence of Anthroposophy","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA080a/English/SOL2024/19220123p01.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.

Wir schauen ihn an. Aus seinem tiefsten Innern spricht sein Seelisch-Geistiges. Aus seinem Antlitz, aus jeder seiner Bewegungen spricht es. Wir haben nicht den ganzen Menschen vor uns, wenn wir nicht dieses Geistig-Seelische in dem Natürlich-Leiblichen schauen. Naturwissenschaft hat es im Laufe der letzten drei bis vier Jahrhunderte, insbesondere im neunzehnten Jahrhundert, zu einer hohen Vollendung gebracht. Anthroposophie will nicht auf Laientum, auf Dilettantismus bauen, obwohl sie für jeden Menschen ist. Der anthroposophische Forscher möchte jedes Laientum, jeden Dilettantismus auf naturwissenschaftlichem Gebiete ausschließen. Er möchte gerade auf naturwissenschaftlichem Gebiet echte Wissenschaftlichkeit und echte Methodik zur Entfaltung gebracht wissen. Damit aber ist er sich gerade klar, wie die äußere Naturwissenschaft, die mit Recht solche Triumphe gefeiert hat, die so bedeutsam ins praktische Leben eingegriffen hat nach der Außenseite hin, wie diese Naturwissenschaft etwas Äußeres darstellt, was zu vergleichen ist mit dem Physisch-Leiblichen des Menschen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":190,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/80a/1922-01-23/p051"}],"english":["GA 80a/1922-01-23/p051"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":190,"en_words":212,"ratio":1.12,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":10817,"original_word_count":10371,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Essence of Anthroposophy","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA080a/English/SOL2024/19220123p01.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.
