Since the ground we live on today emerged from the depths of the sea, since the Atlantean race gradually began to disappear, the great Aryan root race has been the one that has ruled the earth. If we look at ourselves, we here in Europe are the fifth sub-race of the great Aryan root race. The first sub-race lived in ancient India in the distant past. And today's Indians are descendants of that first sub-race, whose spiritual life is still present in the ancient Vedas of the Indians. The Vedas, however, are only echoes of the ancient Rishi culture. At that time there was no writing; there was only tradition. Then came the second, the third and the fourth sub-races. The fourth sub-race adopted Christianity. Then we see that around the middle of the Middle Ages the fifth sub-race had formed, to which we and the neighboring peoples belong. The ancient Indians of the first sub-race lived under different conditions than we did and were basically organized differently. Even their present-day descendants, the present-day Indians, are organized quite differently from our European peoples. The occultist who studies the differences finds that in the ancient Indian people, the etheric body is much less bound to the physical body, is not as deeply embedded in the physical body, but is much more easily influenced by the astral body.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"XVII.

Seitdem aus den Fluten des Meeres emporgestiegen ist der Boden, den wir heute bewohnen, seitdem die atlantische Rasse allmählich zu verschwinden begonnen hat, seitdem ist die große arische Wurzelrasse diejenige, welche herrschend ist auf der Erde. Wenn wir uns selbst betrachten, so sind wir hier in Europa die fünfte Unterrasse der großen arischen Wurzelrasse. Die erste Unterrasse lebte in urferner Vergangenheit im alten Indien. Und die heutigen Inder sind Nachkommen jener ersten Unterrasse, deren Geistesleben noch vorhanden ist in den uralten Veden der Inder. Die Veden sind indessen nur Nachklänge der alten Rishi-Kultur. Damals ist ja noch keine Schrift dagewesen; da gab es nur Tradition. Dann kamen die zweite, die dritte und die vierte Unterrasse. Die vierte Unterrasse hat das Christentum aufgenommen. Dann sehen wir, dass um die Mitte des Mittelalters die fünfte Unterrasse sich gebildet hat, zu der wir und die angrenzenden Völker gehören. Die alten Inder der ersten Unterrasse lebten unter anderen Bedingungen als wir und waren im Grunde genommen auch anders organisiert. Selbst die heutigen Nachkommen, die heutigen Inder, sind wesentlich anders organisiert als unsere europäischen Völker. Wer als Okkultist die Unterschiede untersucht, der findet, dass im alten indischen Volke der Ätherkörper viel weniger an den physischen Körper gefesselt ist, sich nicht so dicht in den physischen Körper hineinversenkt hat, sondern dass er viel leichter vom Astralkörper zu beeinflussen ist.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":235,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/90b/1905-10-22/p019"}],"english":["GA 90b/1905-10-22/p019"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":235,"en_words":241,"ratio":1.03,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","anchors","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8023,"original_word_count":7678,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Self-Knowledge and God-Knowledge II","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA090b/English/SOL2024/19051022p01.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.
