When the Goetheanum in Dornach, before its actual completion, organized autumn courses on the various sciences and on various branches of human life last fall, the aim was not to focus exclusively on spiritual science as such in these courses, but to let the individual sciences express themselves in such a way that what they themselves could experience as a fertilization through spiritual science would have to come to light. For this reason, it was considered important that experts from the individual scientific fields were able to express themselves at this event, that they were heard, and that personalities from practical life, from commerce, industry and so on, were also heard, in other words, from thoroughly practical life. The idea was that those people who are either directly involved in science or those who have experienced the hardships and challenges of life and at the same time have truly penetrated into that which is to emerge as spiritual science at the Goetheanum in Dornach, should be able to discuss the experiences they have with the introduction of spiritual science into their particular field. But it has also been used to highlight what is supposed to be the actual origin of the anthroposophically oriented spiritual science represented by the Goetheanum. What is to be represented here is not something that even remotely has the intention, say, of founding some new religion. Nor is it about wanting to set up some kind of sectarian movement, but the starting point of spiritual science is taken entirely from the scientific life of modern times and especially of the present.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"2.

Als im Herbste des vergangenen Jahres das Goetheanum in Dornach noch vor seiner eigentlichen Fertigstellung Herbstkurse über die verschiedenen Wissenschaften und über verschiedene Zweige des menschlichen Lebens veranstaltete, da war es das Bestreben, nicht ausschließlich Geisteswissenschaft als solche bei diesem Kurse zur Geltung zu bringen, sondern die einzelnen Wissenschaften selbst sich so aussprechen zu lassen, dass dasjenige zutage treten musste, was sie selbst als Befruchtung durch die Geisteswissenschaft erfahren können. Deshalb wurde Wert darauf gelegt, dass bei dieser Veranstaltung Fachleute aus den einzelnen wissenschaftlichen Gebieten zur Sprache kamen, zur Aussprache kamen und auch Persönlichkeiten des praktischen Lebens, des kommerziellen, des industriellen und so weiter, also des durchaus praktischen Lebens. Es war eben der Gedanke dabei, dass diejenigen Menschen, die entweder auf der einen Seite in der Wissenschaft selber drinnenstehen, oder diejenigen, welche die Härten und Aufgaben des Lebens kennengelernt haben und die zu gleicher Zeit wirklich eingedrungen sind in dasjenige, was im Goetheanum in Dornach als Geisteswissenschaft zutage treten soll, dass diese sich über die Erfahrungen aussprechen können, die sie mit der Einführung der Geisteswissenschaft in ihr besonderes Fach machen können. Es ist aber auch damit zur Geltung gebracht worden, worinnen der eigentliche Ursprung der durch das Goetheanum vertretenen anthroposophisch orientierten Geisteswissenschaft zu suchen sein soll. Es handelt sich bei dem, was da zur Vertretung gelangen soll, nicht um irgendetwas, was auch nur im Entferntesten die Absicht hat, etwa, sagen wir, irgendeine neue Religion gründen zu wollen. Es handelt sich auch nicht darum, irgendeine sektiererische Bewegung in Szene setzen zu wollen, sondern der Ausgangspunkt der Geisteswissenschaft ist durchaus aus dem wissenschaftlichen Leben der neueren Zeit und insbesondere der Gegenwart herausgeholt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":274,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/80b/1921-01-28/p003"}],"english":["GA 80b/1921-01-28/p003"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":274,"en_words":267,"ratio":0.97,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":17469,"original_word_count":17257,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Inner Nature and Essence of the Human Soul","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA080b/English/SOL2024/19210128p01.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.
