Unchastity is not yet possible in the etheric body. It was a heritage from the gods bestowed upon men which caused them to create such works of art. The human being has lost this ability to feel himself within the etheric and physical bodies alone, without the ego or the astral body.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"III.

Dadurch entstanden die griechischen Skulpturen, jene griechischen Skulpturen, die als Kunstwerke wirklich so vor uns stehen, wie der Sonnenmensch geistig vor uns stehen muß, wenn wir ihn begreifen als nur enthaltend die physische Menschengestalt und das ätherisch Lebendige darinnen und noch nicht enthaltend das Astralische. Ja, so eine aus der griechischen Kunst heraus geschaffene Venus von Milo können wir betrachten als eine vor uns stehende Personifikation keuschesten Wesens, weil Unkeuschheit erst im astralischen Leibe möglich ist in alldem, was als Triebe und Begierden den astralischen Leib durchdringt. Unkeuschheit ist noch nicht möglich im ätherischen Leibe. Da war es Erbgut der Götter, das die Menschen mitbekommen haben, was sie veranlaßte, solche Kunstwerke zu schaffen.
