Das tritt als Erlebnis auf. Und der Mensch durchlebt nun ungefähr ein Drittel seines Lebens, denn das ungefähr verschläft der Mensch im normalen Erdenleben. Daher geht jetzt der Mensch durch eine Periode durch nach seinem Tode, wo er seine Nächte rücklaufend durchlebt ungefähr ein Drittel seines Lebens lang, entsprechend der Zeit des Erdenlebens. Da wird das menschliche Leben rücklaufend noch einmal durchlebt, erst die letzte Nacht, dann die vorletzte, dann die drittletzte Nacht, und so fort, bis wir bei der Geburt beziehungsweise Empfängnis angekommen sind.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":143,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/227/1923-08-26/p032"},{"locus":"GA 227/1923-08-26/p033","passage_number":33,"text":"Von anderen Gesichtspunkten aus habe ich dieses Durchgehen des Menschen rücklaufend durch eine ganz andere Welt nach dem Tode geschildert in dem, was ich in meiner «Theosophie» ausgeführt habe als Durchgang des menschlichen seelisch-geistigen Wesens durch die Seelenwelt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":38,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/227/1923-08-26/p033"},{"locus":"GA 227/1923-08-26/p034","passage_number":34,"text":"Nun, nachdem der Mensch auf diese Weise durch die Seelenwelt gegangen ist - wenn er im Leben zwanzig oder einundzwanzig Jahre geworden ist, sind das nach dem Tode etwa sieben Jahre, wenn er sechzig Jahre geworden ist, etwa zwanzig Jahre; das ist genau ebenso lang, als er vom Leben hier auf der Erde verschlafen hat -, da steht er nun davor, dasjenige zu erleben, was durch sein ganzes Wesen aus jenem Erdendasein geworden ist, das ja die Götter geschaffen haben, um mit Hilfe des Menschengeschlechts die Welt wiederum um ein Stück vorwärtszubringen. Bis zum Ende dieses Rückwärtserlebens der Nächte hat der Mensch erfahren nach dem Tode, was aus ihm geworden ist, und was er bedeutet für den Kosmos.
