But it is good when the inner current comes and extinguishes this presently, so that, at most, the impression penetrates the liquid (but it dissolves) and at present no rigid form can come about. Since, at present, it cannot become a firm shape, the matter remains in the astral body. Now one is asleep, the next night. There it goes out with the astral body and the ego. There it reinforces itself somewhat during the state of sleep. (See diagram 3, right) Then it comes back in again with awakening (left), and will possibly be extinguished again; and this happens as a rule three to four times. Only after the fourth, having been asleep, the extinguishing force will not be strong enough anymore, and then this is fixed so firmly, that this plastic formation ( *Gebilde*), which cannot be dissolved in there anymore, becomes the basis for memory-representation, for recollection.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture I","site_heading":"Spiritual Rhythms in Human Organism and Perception","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.

Aber es ist gut, wenn die innere Strömung kommt und das zunächst auslöscht, so daß höchstens der Eindruck in die Flüssigkeit eindringt — da verschwimmt er aber — und es zunächst zu keinem festen Gebilde kommt. Dadurch, daß es zunächst zu keinem festen Gebilde kommt, bleibt die Sache bloß im astralischen Leibe. Jetzt schläft man die nächste Nacht. Da geht es mit dem astralischen Leibe und mit dem Ich heraus. Da verstärkt es sich etwas während des Schlafzustandes (siehe Zeichnung, rechts). Dann kommt es wieder mit dem Aufwachen herein (links), wird womöglich wieder ausgelöscht; und das geschieht in der Regel drei- bis viermal. Erst nach dem vierten Schlafe ist dann die auslöschende Kraft nicht groß genug mehr, und dann setzt sich das so fest, daß dieses plastische Gebilde, was da drinnen nicht mehr aufgelöst wird, die Grundlage für die Gedächtnisvorstellungen, für die Erinnerungen wird.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":187,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/218/1922-10-20/p015"}],"english":["GA 218/1922-10-20/p018"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":187,"en_words":200,"ratio":1.07,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.97,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":4899,"original_word_count":5044,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Margaret W Deussen","identified_edition":"MSV1975","book_title":"Spiritual Relation in the Configuration of the Human Organism","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA218/English/MSV1975/19221020p01.html","evidence":"lecture_list_row"},"entity_parity":{"status":"ok","checked_against":["GA 218/1922-10-20/p015"],"missing_from_translation":[],"present_only_in_translation":[],"bead_confidence":"high","note":"Every load-bearing name in the German counterpart appears in this English passage.
