He has absorbed everything and carries the whole trinity of Atma-Budhi-Manas within himself. In the mineral kingdom, Atma is spread out; it rests in its entirety in the rock, which is still directly connected to the cosmos. In the plant and animal world, dualism is already present; Budhi penetrates into the etheric and astral worlds, and the plant and animal world is built from life and sensation. Manas, wisdom, hovers above them and brings about the wisdom that is expressed in nature, in the wonderful conformity to law of the structure of all animals' rational actions. But man draws Manas into himself. Wisdom can no longer affect him from the outside. Bound up with Kama, enclosed in his mental body, wisdom is clouded for him. Man is a condensation into the single form of chemical-physical processes that take place in the mineral cosmos. Man is also active in the astral world through his feelings, desires and passions. He ceaselessly creates astral beings in that sphere, which have a truly living, material existence there, because the matter of the astral world consists of surging sensations such as envy, hatred, goodwill, anger and so on. There, the beings created by human feelings lead their special existence as elemental beings; there are also beings from other worlds that require the astral sphere for their development, and then there are the astral bodies of the souls awaiting their human incarnation. Furthermore, there are the devas, who also come from other worlds and often seek to influence people. There are the four Deva-Rajas, who form the physical bodies according to the astral scheme from the four elements of fire, water, air and earth, which the Lipikas, the lords of karma, have formed from the mental substance of the individuality.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"14.

Er hat alles in sich hineingezogen und trägt die ganze Dreiheit Atma-Budhi-Manas in sich. Im Mineralreich ist Atma ausgebreitet, es ruht in seiner ganzen Einheit im Gestein, das noch in unmittelbarem Zusammenhang mit dem Kosmos steht. In der Pflanzen- und Tierwelt ist schon der Dualismus vorhanden; Budhi dringt in die Äther- und Astralwelt, und aus Leben und Empfindung baut sich die Pflanzen- und Tierwelt auf. Manas, die Weisheit, schwebt über ihnen und bewirkt die Weisheit, die in der Natur zum Ausdruck kommt, in der wunderbaren Gesetzmäßigkeit des Baues wie aller Vernunfthandlungen der Tiere. Der Mensch aber zieht Manas in sich hinein. Die Weisheit kann nun nicht mehr von außen auf ihn wirken. Mit Kama verbunden, in seinem Mentalkörper eingeschlossen, ist ihm die Weisheit getrübt. Der Mensch ist eine Zusammenziehung von chemischphysikalischen Prozessen zur Einzelform, die sich in dem mineralischen Kosmos abspielen. Der Mensch ist durch seine Gefühle, Wünsche und Leidenschaften in der astralen Welt auch tätig. Unaufhörlich schafft er selbst astrale Wesenheiten in jener Sphäre, die dort wirklich lebendige, materielle Existenz haben, denn die Materie der astralen Welt besteht aus durcheinanderwogenden Empfindungen wie Neid, Haß, Wohlwollen, Zorn und so weiter. Dort führen die von den Empfindungen der Menschen geschaffenen Wesen als Elementarwesen ihre Sonderexistenz, dort befinden sich auch Wesen aus anderen Welten, die zu ihrer Entwicklung der astralen Sphäre bedürfen, und dann die astralen Körper der auf ihr Menschwerden harrenden Seelen. Ferner [befinden sich dort] die Devas, die auch aus anderen Welten kommen und oft die Menschen zu beeinflussen suchen. Dort sind die vier Deva-Rajas, die aus den vier Elementen Feuer, Wasser, Luft und Erde die physischen Körper nach dem astralen Schema bilden, den die Lipikas, die Herren des Karma, aus dem Mentalstoff der Individualität gebildet haben.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":300,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/88/1903-07-12/p009"}],"english":["GA 88/1903-07-12/p009"],"method":"identity","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":300,"en_words":311,"ratio":1.04,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","anchors","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.07,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":2351,"original_word_count":2201,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2022","book_title":"On the Astral World and Devachan","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA088/English/SOL2022/19030712p01.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.
