Sie haben ein Denken; sie haben Gefühle und einen Willen. Aber sie entwickeln durch den ätherischen Leib etwas, was der Mensch nur durch den physischen Leib entwickeln kann. Sie kommen durch ihren ätherischen Leib zu einem Bewußtsein von ihrer eigenen Wesenheit. Der Mensch würde von einer übersinnlichen Wesenheit nichts wissen können, wenn er nicht das, was er an Kräften im physisch-sinnlichen Leib erwirbt, hinauftrüge in die übersinnlichen Welten. - Das übersinnliche Bewußtsein lernt diese Wesenheiten dadurch kennen, daß es zur Fähigkeit wird, mit Hilfe des ätherischen Menschenleibes zu beobachten. Es hebt dieses übersinnliche Bewußtsein die Menschenseele in die Welt hinauf, in welcher diese Wesenheiten ihren Wohnplatz und ihr Wirkensfeld haben. Erst wenn die Seele in dieser Welt sich selbst erlebt, treten in ihrem Bewußtsein Bilder (Vorstellungen) auf, welche eine Erkenntnis von diesen Wesen vermitteln. Denn diese Wesenheiten greifen nicht unmittelbar in die physische Welt und damit auch nicht in den physisch-sinnlichen Menschenleib ein. Sie sind für die Erlebnisse, welche durch diesen Leib gemacht werden können, nicht vorhanden. Sie sind geistige (übersinnliche) Wesen, welche die Sinneswelt gewissermaßen nicht betreten. - Wenn der Mensch die Grenze zwischen sinnlicher und übersinnlicher Welt nicht beachtet, dann kann es geschehen, daß er in sein physisch-sinnliches Bewußtsein übersinnliche Bilder hereindrängt, welche nicht der wahre Ausdruck für diese Wesenheiten sind. Diese Bilder entstehen durch ein Erleben der luziferischen und ahrimanischen Wesenheiten, welche zwar gleichartig sind mit den eben beschriebenen übersinnlichen Wesenheiten, die aber im Gegensatze zu ihnen ihren Wohnplatz und ihr Wirkensfeld in die Welt verlegt haben, welche der Mensch als Sinneswelt wahrnimmt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":280,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/17/l11/p003"}],"english":["GA 17/l11/p003","GA 17/l11/p004","GA 17/l11/p005"],"method":"reader","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":280,"en_words":290,"ratio":1.04,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["reader"],"reader_german":["GA 17/l11/p003"],"reader_part":true},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.07,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":1623,"original_word_count":1510,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"status":"unknown","warning":"No translator is recorded for this edition.
