What happens when a person actually brings to consciousness what otherwise always remains in the subconscious, what is dreamt away, what is slept away, when he actually raises it to consciousness through such inner processes as you will find described in my books? When consciousness arises about this, as it is only present in ordinary daytime consciousness for the life of the senses and imagination, then the human being actually learns, for example, what is otherwise only overslept in his impulses of will. But just as one learns to recognize, when one focuses on the life of sleep, that ego-consciousness is dependent on the life of sleep, in another way, by actually raising the life of the will from the subconscious to the conscious, one learns to recognize that if one always had this life of the will before one, if one did not sleep through the life of the will, one would have a completely different consciousness, the consciousness that spiritual researchers actually develop in a certain way. That which wills within us, and in a certain sense also that which corresponds to our feelings, which lives in our emotional impulses, would, if we had it before us as we have our life of imagination, affect us like another person, as if we had a second, different human being within us. The human being would walk around with another human being. And one can say: it is arranged in the wise plan of development that the unified consciousness that the human being needs for his life between birth and death is made possible by the fact that the life of the will is pushed down into sleep, so that he is not divided by having to constantly look at the other who actually wants within him. This other person is connected with the eternal core of the human being, with the eternal core of the human being that is free from physicality, with that which does not work through physicality.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"6.

Was geschieht denn, wenn der Mensch nun wirklich dasjenige, was sonst immer im Unterbewußten bleibt, was verträumt, was verschlafen wird, wenn er das durch solche inneren Vorgänge, wie Sie sie geschildert finden in meinen Büchern, nun wirklich ins Bewußten heraufhebt? Wenn darüber ein Bewußtsein entsteht, so wie es im gewöhnlichen Bewußtsein des Tages nur vorhanden ist für das Sinnes- und Vorstellungsleben, da lernt der Mensch dann tatsächlich zum Beispiel dasjenige kennen, was in seinen Willensimpulsen sonst nur verschlafen wird. Aber wie man, wenn man auf das Schlafleben sich hinrichtet, erkennen lernt, daß das Ich-Bewußtsein abhängig ist vom Schlafesleben, so lernt man, in einer anderen Weise, durch die wirkliche Heraufhebung des Willenslebens aus dem Unterbewußten ins Bewußte erkennen, daß man dann, wenn man dieses Willensleben immer vor sich hätte, wenn man das Willensleben nicht verschlafen würde, ein ganz anderes Bewußtsein hätte, jenes Bewußtsein, das wirklich in einer gewissen Weise der Geistesforscher entwickelt. Das, was in uns will, und in gewisser Beziehung auch dasjenige, was unserem Fühlen entspricht, was in den Gefühlsimpulsen lebt, das würde, wenn der Mensch es so vor sich hätte wie sein Vorstellungsleben, auf ihn wirken wie ein anderer, wie wenn er einen zweiten, einen anderen Menschen in sich hätte. Der Mensch würde mit einem anderen Menschen herumgehen. Und man kann sagen: Es ist im weisheitsvollen Entwickelungsplan so eingerichtet, daß das einheitliche Bewußtsein, das der Mensch braucht für sein Leben zwischen Geburt und Tod, möglich gemacht wird dadurch, daß das Willensleben hinunter in den Schlaf gedrängt ist, er also nicht entzweigespalten wird dadurch, daß er den anderen immerfort anzuschauen hat, der eigentlich in ihm will. Dieser andere hängt nämlich wiederum zusammen mit dem urewigen Wesenskern des Menschen, mit dem von der Leiblichkeit freien, urewigen Wesenskern des Menschen, mit dem, was nicht durch die Leiblichkeit wirkt.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":313,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/72/1917-11-30/p060"}],"english":["GA 72/1917-11-30/p057"],"method":"length","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":313,"en_words":350,"ratio":1.12,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.01,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":11007,"original_word_count":10852,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"eLib2017","book_title":"Freedom, Immortality and Social Life","publisher":null,"publisher_inferred":false,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA072/English/eLib2017/19171130p01.html","evidence":"lecture_page_line"},"entity_parity":{"status":"ok","checked_against":["GA 72/1917-11-30/p060"],"missing_from_translation":[],"present_only_in_translation":[],"bead_confidence":"high","note":"Every load-bearing name in the German counterpart appears in this English passage.
