Record: listeners' notes. Written from listeners' notes, summaries, or memory rather than a shorthand transcript. The wording is the note-taker's as much as Steiner's: weigh a single striking phrase here far more cautiously than the same phrase in a stenographic volume, and do not rest an argument on one word. Evidence: «Frühe Vortragsreihen und Einzelvorträge für Mitglieder in Berlin 1903–1904 nach ausführlichen und z.T. fragmentarischen Mitschriften.» (Early lecture series and single lectures for members in Berlin 1903-1904, from detailed and in part fragmentary listeners' transcripts.). The publisher's description of the volume, as mirrored on AnthroWiki (GA 90a); the description calls them "Hörermitschriften", and the served text carries the note-taker's gap marker "[Lücke in der Mitschrift]". The translation is the maintainer's, not a published one.
The result is that you can place yourself in the various etheric forms of consciousness, so that you can not only recognize the laws of devachanic life, but also the transformations of our earth – only our earth, it does not go further – that it has undergone during the time of the so-called round developments. The process of passing through several planets or globes, of Arupa planets and Rupa planets and the like, is undergone. These transformations can be learned in this state of consciousness. And then the different rounds themselves can be undergone, learned.
