Which of the conditions that form the basis for the transformation of human being I into human being J that are lacking in the sphere of the Earth
1896. That the transformation of human being I into human being J could hitherto not take place on Earth, and that this transformation could thus be attained only on another and even more highly evolved planet than the Earth is due, in addition to the previously mentioned reason, also to the fact that the particular condition that determined the further development or complete experience of the great birth did not exist in the sphere of the Earth. What was missing was the solution to the mystery of life revealed as concrete and absolute science. And since such a science was the absolutely only thing that in all fields could satisfy human being I, which is now mature in every respect, there was thus no possibility on Earth for human being I to attain this satisfaction. The analyses of the mystery of life and the solution or revelation revealed through them could not possibly become concrete or absolute knowledge A, that is to say, wakingly day-conscious fact. And if it could not become knowledge A, it could not become knowledge B either, which is the same as wakingly day-conscious practice. But if it could not become practice, it could not become knowledge C, that is to say a habit or talent. On Earth the way of being based on the true solution to the mystery of life or the absolute truth about existence could thus not possibly become a perfect talent in human being I. And since its transformation into human being J is determined unshakeably by this talent, one understands that the beings' reincarnation in the sphere of the Earth, as previously mentioned, had to stop here.
