You learn to know the world of the hierarchies in their order of succession, from those beings whom you learn to know first as angels, and archangels, up to those who seem to be almost vanishing, so indistinct do they become—the Cherubim and Seraphim. But one thing is possible when you find yourself in these worlds; you can succeed in entering into relation with these beings. Whatever you are in sensory existence you must have left behind you, in the sense of the way we described this before, but, as I have already said, you still bear it in memory. Into these worlds you carry the memory of what you have left behind and, as in physical life we look back into our memories, so you look back from the higher worlds on to what you have been in sensory existence. You still possess it in memory pictures.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture V","site_heading":"Experiencing the Spiritual World: Consciousness Beyond the Physical Body","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.

Wir stehen eigentlich in dieser geistigen Welt nur Wesenheiten gegenüber, und diesen Wesenheiten steht nicht das entgegen, was man Naturverlauf nennen könnte. Alles ist Wesen, was einem begegnet, wozu man auf die Weise, wie es gestern angedeutet worden ist, geführt wird. Überall wo etwas ist, ist Wesen, und man kann nicht sagen wie im Sinnensein: Dort ist ein Tier und dort sind äußere Stoffe, die von ihm gegessen werden. - Diese Zweiheit gibt es dort nicht, sondern was ist, ist Wesen. Und wie man sich zu diesen Wesen zu stellen hat, habe ich auch schon gesagt: daß es hauptsächlich die Welt der Hierarchien ist, die wir von anderen Gesichtspunkten aus öfter charakterisiert haben. In ihrer Stufenfolge lernt man die Welt der Hierarchien kennen, von denjenigen Wesenheiten an, die man zunächst kennenlernt als die Angeloi und Archangeloi, Engel und Erzengel, wie sie in unserer Terminologie genannt werden, bis zu den Wesenheiten, die einem fast zu entschwinden scheinen, so undeutlich werden sie, den Cherubim und Seraphim. Aber es ist eines möglich, wenn man sich in diesen Welten befindet: eine Beziehung zu diesen Wesenheiten zu gewinnen. Was man im Sinnensein ist, das muß man vorher zurücklassen im Sinne der gestrigen Auseinandersetzungen; aber wie ich Ihnen gesagt habe, man behält es doch zurück in der Erinnerung. Man trägt die Erinnerung an das Abgelebte in diese Welten hinein, und wie man im Sinnensein auf die Erinnerungen zurücksieht, so blickt man auf das, was man im Sinnensein ist, von der höheren Welt aus zurück, man hat es in der Erinnerungsvorstellung.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":274,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/138/1912-08-29/p004"}],"english":["GA 138/1912-08-29/p005"],"method":"reader","confidence":"high","correspondence":"partial","length_check":{"de_words":274,"en_words":181,"ratio":0.66,"partial":true},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 138/1912-08-29/p004"],"reader_part":true},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.04,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":7376,"original_word_count":7084,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Gilbert Church","identified_edition":"AP1980","book_title":"Initiation, Eternity and the Passing Moment","publisher":"Anthroposophic Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA138/English/AP1980/19120829p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
