From chapter thirteen onwards it is his experiences in the devachanic, or mental world. He who wrote it down says of Christ (the words are not to be taken literally): Here on this earth He lived, here has He worked with divine powers, with occult powers. He has healed the sick, he has gone through everything from death to resurrection. It is impossible to understand these things with the ordinary intellect. Here on earth there is no science or learning by which one could really understand what occurred. But there is the possibility of rising to the higher worlds. There one can find the wisdom to understand Him who walked here on earth among us. Thus did the writer of the John Gospel rise to the two higher worlds and become initiated. It was an initiation, and the writer describes his initiation into the astral world and the devachanic, or mental world.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture I","site_heading":"John's Gospel as Initiation into Higher Worlds","site_heading_note":"A heading the site wrote for this unit from a summary of it; not in the edition, and not the words of Rudolf Steiner or of the translator.

Vom dreizehnten Kapitel ab sind es die Erlebnisse des Johannes in der devachanischen oder mentalen Welt, so daß sich derjenige, der das niedergeschrieben hat, von Christus sagt - die Worte sind ganz vergleichsweise zu nehmen —: Hier auf dieser Erde hat Er gelebt, hier hat Er aus Kräften heraus gewirkt, die göttlich sind, aus okkulten Kräften heraus. Er hat Kranke geheilt, Er hat alles, vom Sterben bis zum Auferstehen, durchgemacht. Diese Dinge mit dem bloßen Verstande zu begreifen, ist unmöglich. Hier auf der Erde gibt es keine Wissenschaft, keine Weisheit, durch die man verstehen kann, was da geschehen ist. Aber es gibt eine Möglichkeit, hinaufzusteigen in die höheren Welten. Da wird man die Weisheit finden, durch die man den, der hier auf der Erde gewandelt hat, verstehen kann. So erhob sich der Schreiber des Johannes-Evangeliums hinauf in die beiden höheren Welten und ließ sich einweihen. Es war eine Einweihung, und seine Einweihung schildert der Schreiber des Johannes-Evangeliums, die Einweihung in die astralische Welt und die Einweihung in die devachanische oder Mentalwelt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":186,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/94/1906-02-19/p014"}],"english":["GA 94/1906-02-19/p014"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":186,"en_words":163,"ratio":0.88,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.96,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":4768,"original_word_count":4981,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"UNK1980","book_title":"The Gospel of St. John","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA094/English/UNK1980/19060219p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"source_says_translator_unknown","note":"The source page itself says the translator is unknown.
