One nation always arises out of another through the astral body becoming different; astral entities are always to be found behind the national soul. But the etheric body of humanity and that of the individual remains unchanged from nation to nation; a new etheric body only arises with the ascent from race to race. Even the physical body is subject to change. The ancient Atlanteans had a very different physical body, and the first Lemurians had no real physical body at all. The solar hero encompasses in his consciousness an entire human race like individual atoms. He grasps the whole race with his consciousness. The seventh stage, the Father Initiation, leads beyond the race to all mankind on earth, to all peoples and races of the whole planet. Christ Jesus is the representative of this; he carries all mankind within himself. That is why in the Gospel of John humanity is called the bride, and the initiated Son of Man is called the bridegroom. Christ Jesus is the one who, in the essence, encompasses the consciousness of all humanity. This brings us to where we left off from the previous lecture when we were considering the wedding at Cana.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Fourth Lecture","site_heading":"Four Bodies and Seven Degrees of Initiation","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.

Ein Volk entsteht immer aus dem anderen dadurch, daß der Astralleib anders wird; überall stehen hinter der Volksseele astralische Wesenheiten. Der Ätherleib der Menschheit und der des Einzelnen bleibt aber unverändert von Volk zu Volk; ein neuer Ätherleib entsteht erst bei dem Aufstieg von Rasse zu Rasse. Selbst der physische Leib ist der Veränderung unterworfen. Die alten Atlantier hatten einen ganz anderen und die ersten Lemurier hatten überhaupt noch keinen wirklichen physischen Leib. Der Sonnenheld umfaßt in seinem Bewußtsein eine ganze Menschenrasse wie einzelne Atome. Er ergreift mit seinem Bewußtsein die ganze Rasse. — Die siebente Stufe, die Vater-Einweihung, führt über die Rasse hinaus zur ganzen Erdenmenschheit, zu allen Völkern und Rassen des ganzen Planeten. Christus Jesus ist der Repräsentant dafür; er trägt die ganze Menschheit in sich. Darum heißt im Johannes-Evangelium die Menschheit die Braut, der eingeweihte Menschensohn der Bräutigam. Christus Jesus ist derjenige, der im Extrakt das Bewußtsein der ganzen Menschheit umfaßt.
