The individual events of the past life, which have long since vanished from the spiritual view, appear before the soul at this important turning point in life, so to speak, with all their details. And if we ask ourselves how such a thing is possible, we can at least make what presents itself to the clairvoyant eye comprehensible to ourselves by pointing to those all-too-familiar moments in life that those who have once been in mortal danger, such as a fall in the mountains or near drowning, tell us about. They say that in such moments their whole past life stood before their eyes as in a great painting. What is told in this way can certainly be confirmed by spiritual science.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"The Human Being's Journey Through the World of the Senses, Soul and Spirit","site_heading":null,"date":"1910-03-21","location":null,"word_count":165,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/119/1910-03-21/p005","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:identity","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"Singles","book_title":null,"publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA119/English/Singles/19100321p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line"},"edition_coverage":{"de":["original"],"en":["English"]},"available_versions":[{"lang":"de","edition":"original","edition_basis":null,"is_original":true,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/119/1910-03-21/p005"},{"lang":"en","edition":"English","edition_basis":null,"is_original":false,"is_default_edition":true,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/119/1910-03-21/p005","paragraph_aligned":true}],"record":{"record_type":"unknown","scope":"volume","note":"How this text was taken down (shorthand transcript, listeners' notes or manuscript) is not on record here.
