Out of spirit that fills the whole universe, we see material entities arise and solidify; on the other hand material entities continually dissolve again. Spirit has flowed into everything that surrounds us as matter. Everything material is solidified spirit. Just as we only have to add the necessary heat for ice to turn back into water, so it is only necessary to add enough spirit to the physical beings to make the spirit resurrect in them. One speaks of a rebirth of the spirit which, having flowed into matter, has become solidified. Thus, we see that the astral body, the bearer of pleasure and pain, cravings and passions, is something that could not possibly originate from the physical. It is of the same element that permeates the whole world, but in us it lives as conscious spirit. It will be released from matter through the processes that govern human life. The spirit that in the physical world appears as the last is at the same time the first. The spirit brings the physical body and the ether body into existence, and when these have reached a certain point in their evolution, the spirit reappears as if reborn within them.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"III.

In allem, was uns heute als Materielles umgibt, ist etwas, in das der Geist hineingeflossen und darin erstarrt ist. So sehen wir in jeglichem materiellen Wesen erstarrten Geist. So wie wir dem Eise nur die nötige Wärme zuzuführen brauchen, um wieder Wasser entstehen zu lassen, so brauchen wir den Wesen um uns herum nur den nötigen Geist zuzuführen, um in ihnen den Geist erstehen zu lassen. Wir sprechen von einer Wiedergeburt des Geistes, der in die Materie hineingeflossen und darin erstarrt ist. So erscheint uns auch der astralische Leib — der Träger von Lust und Unlust, Begierde und Leidenschaft — nicht als etwas, was aus dem physischen Dasein hervorgehen konnte, sondern als dasselbe Element, das in uns auflebt als bewußter Geist, wie das, was uns erscheint als das die ganze Welt durchflutende Element, welches — durch einen Prozeß des menschlichen Lebens — wieder aus der Materie erlöst wird.
