Knowledge now becomes feeling; what lives in the soul is transformed into spiritual perception. A person no longer feels that he lives only within himself. He begins to experience himself in all beings: in the stone, plant and animal, in everything into which he is immersed. They reveal to him their essential nature, not in words or concepts, but to his innermost feelings. A time begins when universal sympathy unites him with all beings; he feels with them and participates in their existence. This living within all beings is the seventh stage, or *attaining godliness* ( *Gottseligkeit*), the blessed repose within all things. When the human being no longer feels confined within his skin, when he feels himself united with all other beings, participating in their existence, and when his being encompasses the whole universe so that he can say to it all: “Thou are that,” then the words which Goethe, out of Rosicrucian knowledge, expresses in his poem The Mysteries will have meaning: “Who added to the cross the wreath of roses?”","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"XI.

Dann verwandelt sich Erkenntnis in Gefühl, dann geht das, was in seiner Seele lebendig ist, in Empfindung über, und er hört auf, sich nur in sich selbst zu fühlen. Er fängt an, sich in jedem Wesen zu fühlen. Wenn er untergetaucht ist in jeden Stein, in jede Pflanze, in jedes Tier, dann fühlt er mit Pflanze, Stein und Tier, und es sagt, es offenbart ihm jedes einzelne Ding seine Wesenheit, nicht in Worten, nicht in Begriffen, sondern im innersten Gefühl. Dann beginnt jene Zeit, wo ihn ein allgemeines Netz von Sympathie mit den Wesen verbindet, wo er sich in alle Wesen hineinlebt. Dies Hineinleben in alle Wesen nennt man die siebente Stufe, die Gottseligkeit, das selige Ruhen in allen Wesen. Wenn der Mensch sein Selbst verbunden fühlt mit allen übrigen Wesenheiten, nicht mehr in seiner Haut lebt, sondern eingegangen ist in alle Wesen, mitfühlt mit allen Wesen, wenn er ausgebreitet ist in dem ganzen Weltenraum, so daß er zu allem sagen kann: «Das bist du», wenn er ganz Gefühl, ganz Seligkeit geworden ist, dann darf das gesagt werden, was Goethe aus der Rosenkreuzerschulung heraus in seinem Gedichte «Die Geheimnisse» ausspricht:","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":211,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/55/1907-03-14/p051"},{"locus":"GA 55/1907-03-14/p052","passage_number":52,"text":"> «Wer hat dem Kreuze Rosen zugesellt?»","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":7,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/55/1907-03-14/p052"}],"english":["GA 55/1907-03-14/p069"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":218,"en_words":191,"ratio":0.88,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":0.87,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":7578,"original_word_count":8755,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Rita Stebbing","identified_edition":"AP1987","book_title":"Supersensible Knowledge","publisher":"Anthroposophic Press","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA055/English/AP1987/19070314p01.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.
