This relation can, it is true, be fully clarified only by Spiritual Science. Anyone who studies the sleeping human being will be able to say, even from the external standpoint, that in sleep the human being is shut off alike from the experiences arising from his own life and also from the environment. Spiritual Science does of course make it clear that when man falls asleep he passes as a being of soul and spirit into the spiritual world and on waking is again united with his body. It is not necessary to take this into consideration at the moment, but simply to keep clearly in mind what can also be apparent to ordinary consciousness. The human being is shut off from his environment, and what rises out of his body into his ordinary consciousness is also stilled during sleep. Pictures do indeed surge up and fade away in dreams but their actual relation to the external world is not changed; the form assumed by the pictures is such that this relation remains as it was. The relation to the external world, that which as bald environment giving contour to the outer impressions, approaches man as he opens his senses during waking life—this does not penetrate into the dream. Impressions can indeed be made upon a man, but the characteristics of what the senses make out of those impressions are absent. The soul puts an emblem, a symbol, in the place of the ordinary, bald impression. Therefore the actual relation to the outer world does not change. This could be corroborated in countless cases. In the normal dream the human being is as shut off from the external world as he is in normal sleep; he is also shut off from his own body. What rises up from his bodily nature does not come to direct expression as is the case when he is united in the normal way with his body. If, for example, someone's feet get overheated because of a too warm covering, he would be aware in the ordinary waking state that his feet are too hot. In the dream he is not aware of it in this form, but he thinks he is walking on burning coal or something of the kind. Again it is a matter of transformation brought about by the soul.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"7.

Allerdings kann diese Stellung sich vollständig nur aufklären, wenn sie geisteswissenschaftlich betrachtet wird. Derjenige, welcher den schlafenden Menschen betrachtet, wird sich schon äußerlich sagen können: Der Mensch ist im Schlafe abgeschlossen sowohl von dem, was aus seinem eigenen Leben her erlebt werden kann, wie von demjenigen, was aus der Umgebung erlebt werden kann. Nun, Geisteswissenschaft zeigt zwar, daß der Mensch, indem er einschläft, als geistig-seelisches Wesen wirklich in die geistige Welt hineingeht, und im Aufwachen sich wiederum mit seinem Leibe verbindet. Allein, man braucht darauf nicht einmal Rücksicht zu nehmen, sondern man braucht sich nur dasjenige, was auch dem gewöhnlichen Bewußtsein vorliegen kann, klar vor die Seele zu führen. Der Mensch ist abgeschlossen von seiner Umgebung, und auch dasjenige, was aus seinem Leibe dem gewöhnlichen Bewußtsein bewußt wird, schweigt während des Schlafes. Im Traum wogen zwar Bilder auf und ab, aber ihr Verhältnis zur Außenwelt ändert sich nicht; die Bilder werden gerade so geformt, daß dieses Verhältnis so bleibt. Das Verhältnis zur Außenwelt, dasjenige, was als nüchterne Umgebung, als nüchterne Konturierung der äußeren Eindrücke an den Menschen herantritt, indem er seine Sinne wachend der Außenwelt öffnet, das tritt in den Traum nicht hinein. Eindrücke können zwar, wie wir gesehen haben, auf den Menschen gemacht werden. Allein, gerade das, was charakteristisch ist für das, was die Sinne aus diesen Eindrücken machen, das bleibt weg. Das Seelische setzt ein Sinnbild, ein Symbol an die Stelle des gewöhnlichen nüchternen Eindrucks. So ändert sich nicht das Verhältnis zur Außenwelt. Das könnte an unzähligen Fällen erhärtet werden. Der Mensch bleibt im normalen \"Traum von der Außenwelt so abgeschlossen, wie er es auch im normalen Schlafe ist, und ebenso von seiner eigenen Leiblichkeit. Auch dasjenige, was von der eigenen Leiblichkeit aufsteigt, kommt nicht in unmittelbarer Weise zum Ausdruck, wie wenn man in normaler Art mit seinem Leibe verbunden ist. Wenn man zum Beispiel durch eine zu warme Decke zu warme Füße bekommt, so würde man im gewöhnlichen wachen Zustande spüren, daß man die Füße zu warm bekommt. Das spürt man im Traume nicht so, sondern man glaubt, daß man zum Beispiel über glühende Kohlen oder dergleichen geht. Wiederum ist es die Umwandlung, die die Seele leistet, worauf es ankommt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":394,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/67/1918-03-21/p022"}],"english":["GA 67/1918-03-21/p024"],"method":"length+anchor_constrained","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":394,"en_words":421,"ratio":1.07,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.0,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":10888,"original_word_count":10914,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"not_established","translator":null,"identified_edition":"SOL2018","book_title":"The Eternal in the Human Soul","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA067/English/SOL2018/19180321p01.html","evidence":null,"reason":"no_translator_named","note":"Neither the lecture's own page nor rsarchive's lecture list names a translator for it.
