With ‘belly clairvoyance’ on the other hand he will find it relatively easy to see the most marvellous things in the world. This belly clairvoyance does of course also involve powers which man must learn to use. The powers used there for the digestive process are after all merely transformed power. We will experience them in their right form if we get better and better at identifying with our destiny. In this field, too, it will teach us to draw up not just the winged angel s head that came up first but the other part that follows, and it is important to draw up not just the powers that serve digestion but also those of a higher kind. Those are the powers that lie in our karma, in our destiny. Identifying ourselves with these we shall be able to send forth the spiritual entities we see around us, entities whose tendency is such that sounds and colours flow inward from the universe. Then, of course, the spiritual world will have its full content, it will be concrete, so real and concrete that we find ourselves within it the same way we find ourselves in the physical world.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"8.

Dabei liegen natürlich in diesem Bauchhellsehen auch Kräfte, die der Mensch verwenden lernen muß. Diejenigen Kräfte, die da verwendet werden zu unserem Verdauungsprozeß, sind ja nur verwandelte Kräfte, und richtig erleben wir sie, wenn wir immer mehr und mehr ausbilden lernen die Identifizierung mit dem Schicksal. Das ist auch auf diesem Felde dasjenige, was uns lehrt: dem, was zuerst als geflügelter Engelskopf heraufkam, müssen wir ja nachziehen den anderen Teil, und da handelt es sich darum, daß wir nicht nachziehen nur die Kräfte, die zur Verdauung dienen, sondern auch diejenigen, die höherer Art sind; das sind diejenigen, die in unserem Karma, unserem Schicksal liegen. Wenn wir uns damit identfizieren, dann gelingt es uns, hinauszutragen die geistigen Wesen, die wir um uns sehen, die jetzt die Tendenz haben, daß die Töne und Färbungen hereinfließen aus dem Weltenraum.
