Today, too, I would like to point out that in my writings, in “How to Know Higher Worlds?”, in “The Occult Science in Outline”, in my last book, “The Riddle of Man”, you will find information and hints about what the soul has to undertake in order to find within itself, as it were, the strength to awaken from ordinary waking consciousness to observing consciousness in the same way that one awakens from dream consciousness to ordinary waking consciousness. Just as the soul must exert itself by virtue of the natural forces given to it in order to awaken from the dream-life, in which man is passively surrendered to the succession of images, into the waking consciousness, so can it, by taking itself in hand and applying to itself all that I have described in the book “How to Know Higher Worlds.” She can strengthen herself to awaken within a world that is now just as different in comparison to the ordinary waking consciousness as the ordinary sense world of the waking consciousness is different from what one experiences in the mere world of images in a dream. Out of the ordinary waking consciousness and into a world of intuitive consciousness: this is the path that the most outstanding thinkers of modern times have avoided so much. And we have the peculiar phenomenon that precisely the most enlightened minds have remained with Kant and have not found the way from Kant to Goethe, in order to advance vividly into the realm of the seeing consciousness, which is only the development at a different level of what Goethe meant by contemplative judgment.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"5.

Ich will auchheute wiederum darauf hinweisen, daß Sie in meinen Schriften, in «Wie erlangt man Erkenntnisse der höheren Welten?», in «Die Geheimwissenschaft im Umriß», in meinem letzten Buche «Vom Menschenrätsel» Angaben und Andeutungen darüber finden, was die Seele in sich vorzunehmen hat, um gewissermaßen in sich die Kraft zu finden, um aus dem gewöhnlichen Wachbewußtsein zum schauenden Bewußtsein so aufzuwachen, wie aufgewacht wird aus dem Traumbewußtsein ins gewöhnliche Tagesbewußtsein. So wie die Seele sich erkraften muß vermöge der ihr gegebenen Naturkräfte, um aus dem Traumleben, in dem der Mensch passiv dem Ablauf der Bilder hingegeben ist, aufzuwachen in das Tagesbewußtsein, so kann sie, indem sie sich selbst in die Hand nimmt und alles das auf sich anwendet, was ich beschrieben habe in dem Buche «Wie erlangt man Erkenntnisse der höheren Welten?», erkraften, um aufzuwachen innerhalb einer Welt, die nun ebenso eine andere ist im Vergleich zum gewöhnlichen Tagesbewußtsein, wie die gewöhnliche Sinnenwelt des Tagesbewußtseins eine andere ist gegenüber dem, was man in der bloßen Bilderwelt des Traumes erlebt. Heraus aus dem gewöhnlichen Wachbewußtsein, hinein in eine Welt des schauenden Bewußtseins: das ist der Weg, den gerade die hervorragendsten Denker der neueren Zeit so sehr gemieden haben. Und man hat die eigentümliche Erscheinung vor sich, daß eben wiederum die erleuchtetsten Köpfe bei Kant stehengeblieben sind und den Weg nicht gefunden haben von Kant zu Goethe, um auf Goethe fußend lebendig vorwärtszudringen ins schauende Bewußtsein hinein, das nur die Ausbildung dessen auf einer anderen Stufe ist, was Goethe mit anschauender Urteilskraft gemeint hat.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":273,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/66/1917-03-31/p021"}],"english":["GA 66/1917-03-31/p021"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":273,"en_words":296,"ratio":1.08,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.05,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":10452,"original_word_count":9922,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"Mind and Matter — Life and Death","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA066/English/SOL2024/19170331p01.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.
