In the chapter "Future development of man as a practically active being" on the page 58 I am describing two approaches to man´s activity. Steiner´s one which know man more like result of practical activity of Jahve Elohim and less like practical activity subject. Steiner reduce man´s activity on theoretical activity - spiritual activity. And on the other hand Marx´s one approach which is different because he is emphasize practical activity of man. He do not speak that now we are transforming our astral body like Steiner, but he is speaking about instruments which are produced by man and which become the organs of his activity - the extension of his natural body. By Marx "Earth" epoch creates the physical body of the technical organism. If we use Marx´s practically active being which is self determined by means of its externalization, there is no other way to understand reality but through the belief that we are building technical organisms now. The "mineral development of man" as described  by Steiner must be understood as the establishment of the physical body of the technical organism.

However, as such objectification – the establishment of the technical organism – affects the acting subject in a backward direction and results in de-objectification, spiritualization and ascending: after the “mineral-like development” is completed, man ascends to a higher level and becomes an angel, the Holy Spirit, the God of technical organisms. Man created a relatively independent nature, the “ecology” of technical organisms, “physical” bodies, and thus he ascends as his own creation to the upper Devachan from which his physical body is maintained. And from this plane he will be able to continue affecting the evolution of technical individuals. It is similar to the adaptive guiding of the “anarchy” of living nature by spiritual beings.

Furthermore, the next, plant-like development of man, cannot be naively understood as resulting in the plant composition of our excrement, as Steiner did.(see page 58) We have to understand that man, who created the “physical body” of technical organisms, analogically instiled the etheric body into these organisms under “plant-like development”. Nowadays, man living in the kingdom of inevitability, overcomes his mineral-like being via the creation of organisms ("which will later process the entire mineral substrate of the Earth" - Steiner). In the distant future, he will ascend to the forces which maintain his etheric body.

Steiner dealt with the evolution of higher beings in impressive detail, but where is man stranded in his concept? Steiner’s man secretes, so to speak, plants and later even animals instead of gradually losing the lower members of his being!

Steiner does not assume that man, similar to God, will start creating an organism in his own image; he does not assume that in the Volcano epoch, which means within “three and a half days”, the result of his work will attain the level of current man and current man will ascend to the level of God the Father by that time. Man on his way to God, which is also the way to the creation of the new human being, gradually gets rid of his body and hands it over to his piece of work – to the man which is under creation, to the man that was the producer – the technical organism at the beginning. We believe that the statement “let us create man in our own image” makes real sense in this way.
