Only by following these guidelines can it become a true knowledge of the human being and thus the basis for an education that is appropriate for humanity and in keeping with human dignity. For it is not only through knowledge of the world that we can cope in life, since neither science nor mysticism can lead the human being to a full knowledge of his or her own humanity. For it is like breathing: there must be an interaction, a kind of inhalation and exhalation, between knowledge of the world and knowledge of the human being. But such knowledge alone can only be the basis for an education that pursues the spiritual and soul aspects of the human being until they are transformed into the physical and bodily aspects. It is the basis for that aspect of the state of human culture that needs to be transformed. For anyone who looks at today's life will be able to say to himself: This state cannot be transformed by external transformation, it cannot be brought about by it alone, what we desire for the continuation of our civilization, which is threatened, but only by that which comes from the spirit, and only those human deeds and actions that are borne by the spirit will fit in with social progress.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"The Development and Education of the Human Being in the Light of Anthroposophy","site_heading":null,"date":"1923-04-30","location":null,"word_count":257,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/84/1923-04-30/p030","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":"What is the Purpose of Anthroposophy and the Goetheanum?","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA084/English/SOL2024/19230430p01.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.

Nur in diesen Richtlinien kann sie zur wirklichen Menschenerkenntnis werden und dadurch zur Grundlage einer menschheitsgemäßen und der Menschenwürde gemäßen Menschenerziehung. Denn nicht aus der Erkenntnis der Welt allein kommen wir im Leben zurecht, da weder Naturwissenschaft noch Mystik den Menschen zur vollen Erkenntnis seines Menschenwesens führen können. Denn es ist mit ihr wie mit dem Atmen: sie muß eine Wechselwirkung sein, gewissermaßen ein Einatmen und Ausatmen, zwischen Welterkenntnis und Menschenerkenntnis. Solche Erkenntnis allein kann aber nur die Grundlage sein einer Erziehung, die das Geistig-Seelische bis zu seiner Umwandlung ins Physisch-Leibliche verfolgt, eine Grundlage für das, was am Zustand der menschlichen Kultur einer Umwandlung bedarf. Denn derjenige, der das heutige Leben betrachtet, wird sich sagen können: Durch äußere Umwandlung kann nicht umgewandelt werden dieser Zustand, durch sie allein kann nicht herbeigeführt werden, was wir zum Fortgange unserer Zivilisation, die bedroht ist, wünschen, sondern allein durch dasjenige, was aus dem Geiste kommt, und nur diejenigen Menschentaten, Menschenhandlungen werden sich dem sozialen Fortschritte einfügen, die vom Geiste getragen sind.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":200,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/84/1923-04-30/p030"}],"english":["GA 84/1923-04-30/p030"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":200,"en_words":257,"ratio":1.28,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.06,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8408,"original_word_count":7960,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"What is the Purpose of Anthroposophy and the Goetheanum?","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA084/English/SOL2024/19230430p01.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.
