You will find places all over the human body where the blood vessels touch the nerves in some way. Now wherever blood vessels and nerves make contact feeling arises. But in certain places, e.g., in the senses, the nerves and the blood are so refined that we no longer perceive the feeling. There is a fine undercurrent of feeling in all our seeing and hearing, but we do not notice it, and the more the sense organ is separated from the rest of the body, the less do we notice it. In looking, in the eye's activity, we hardly notice the feelings of sympathy and antipathy because the eye, embedded in its bony hollow, is almost completely separated from the rest of the organism. And the nerves which extend into the eye are of a very delicate nature and so are the blood vessels which enter into the eye. The sense of feeling in the eye is very strongly suppressed.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Lecture V","site_heading":"Feeling as Bridge Between Thinking and Willing","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.

Sie werden ja im menschlichen Leibe überall finden, wie die Blutbahnen mit den Nervenbahnen in irgendeiner Weise sich berühren. Und überall dort, wo Blutbahnen mit Nervenbahnen sich berühren, entsteht eigentlich Gefühl. Nur ist, in den Sinnen zum Beispiel, sowohl der Nerv wie das Blut so verfeinert, daß wir nicht mehr das Gefühl spüren. Von einem leisen Gefühl ist all unser Sehen und Hören durchzogen, aber wir spüren es nicht; wir spüren es um so weniger, als das Sinnesorgan abgegrenzt, abgetrennt ist von dem übrigen Leib. Beim Sehen, bei der Augentätigkeit, spüren wir das gefühlsmäßige Sympathisieren und Antipathisieren fast gar nicht, weil das Auge, in der Knochenrundung eingebettet, fast ganz vom übrigen Organismus abgesondert ist. Und sehr verfeinert sind die Nerven, die sich ins Auge hineinerstrecken und auch die Blutbahnen, die sich ins Auge hineinerstrecken. Es ist das gefühlsmäßige Empfinden im Auge sehr unterdrückt. -— Weniger unterdrückt ist das Gefühlsmäßige beim Sinn des Hörens. Das Hören steht viel mehr als das Schauen mit der Gesamttätigkeit des Organismus in einem organischen Zusammenhang. Indem sich zahlreiche Organe im Ohre befinden, die ganz andersgeartet sind als die Organe des Auges, ist das Ohr in vieler Beziehung ein getreues Abbild desjenigen, was im ganzen Organismus vor sich geht. Daher wird das, was im Ohr als Sinnestätigkeit vor sich geht, sehr stark begleitet von Gefühlstätigkeit. Und hier wird es selbst Menschen, die sich gut auf das verstehen, was gehört wird, schwer, wirklich zur Klarheit zu kommen, was im Gehörten, besonders beim künstlerisch Gehörten, bloßes Erkennen und was Gefühlsmäßiges ist. Darauf beruht eine sehr interessante Erscheinung der neueren Zeit, die auch in die unmittelbare künstlerische Produktion hineingespielt hat.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":281,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/293/1919-08-26/p025"}],"english":["GA 293/1919-08-26/p024","GA 293/1919-08-26/p025"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":281,"en_words":301,"ratio":1.07,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.08,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":4487,"original_word_count":4144,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Daphne Harwood and Helen Fox","identified_edition":"RSP1966","book_title":"The Study of Man","publisher":"Rudolf Steiner Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA293/English/RSP1966/19190826a01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line","publisher_note":"The publisher is inferred from the edition code in this lecture's source URL, not stated by the source page.
