But then it is resurrected from itself and recognizes things in their spiritual meaning. It realizes that where the senses see objects, there is actually nothing, that there are openings in a much more real and dense being all around. It now experiences the sensory world as round holes, as “pearls of existence”; it feels itself alive and weaving in the dense spiritual world, which has become real life where the sensory organs perceive nothing. With the third formula, which is meditated upon for this purpose, one can then test oneself. If the other two formulas are meditated every day, for example in the morning and in the evening, the first verse in the morning and the second verse in the evening, then on Sundays, in addition to these two, one can take the third verse in between, as if to test the extent to which all this has become reality. This is then again a confirmation of another formula that is actually contained in these three: E.D.N. - I.C.M. - P.S.S.R. In the first formula, we can feel what lies at the basis of sensory existence as true creative powers: E.D.N. - In the second, we go into solitude, as if we were dying, in order to find within ourselves that which knows itself to be united with Christ: 1.C.M. - And in the third, we rise from ourselves, are reborn in the spirit, and recognize the spirit being: P.S.S.R. - As I-beings, we must develop into an organ of the spiritual world.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Esoteric Lesson","site_heading":"Etheric Body Independence and Spiritual Meditation Formulas","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.
