- Title: Foundation Course: Lecture 7: Formation of Speech.
Matching lines:
- Something which thoroughly ruins our sense of language is physics, and in physics, as it is today, it only aspires to study objective processes and refrains from all subjective experience, there it should no longer be spoken at all. According to physics, when one body presses (stoβen) against another, for example in the theory of elasticity, then you are anthropomorphising, because the experience of pressure as soon as you sense sound, means you’re only affected by the same kind of pressure as the pressure your own hand makes. Above all, one gets the feeling with the S-sound that nothing other can be described as something like this (a waved line is drawn on the blackboard). The word “Stoβ” (push/impacts — β is the symbol for ss — translator) has two s’s, at the end and beginning; it gives the entire word its colouring; so when the word “Stoβ” or “stoβen” (to push/thrust) is pronounced one actually can feel how, when your ether body would move, it would not only move but be shoved forwards and continuously be kept up.
- Title: Foundation Course: Lecture 15: Ordination and Transubstantiation
Matching lines:
- (Translator’s Note: The lecture which follows this one, the sixteenth in the series, indicates that all participants in this lecture course were asked to sign an agreement that in the future, from that day onward, to only transmit the material presented to them from that point on, in a verbal form. These next lectures enter into all the details required of priests when performing the sacraments, with the wording, gestures and so on. For this reason, I will refrain from translating this material. It will remain available for those wanting to approach ordination into The Christian Community, in the oral tradition.)
