He lives in these riddle questions, these riddle questions basically constitute what can be mental health and illness in the first instance, but what can also become physical health and illness. Because, ladies and gentlemen, the life of the soul is something extraordinarily complicated, however simple it may initially appear. What we carry in our consciousness during our waking hours from morning to evening is, as is now also scientifically recognized, only part of our soul life. A large part of our soul life rests in unconscious or, as I could also say, subconscious depths, and it surges up in the form of vague feelings, of vague moods, and also of all kinds of other soul content, and forms what is an indeterminate basic state of our soul life. But that which takes place and rises in this more or less indeterminate way in the depths of our soul life is intimately connected with what actually constitutes the happiness or suffering of our lives. And anyone who attempts to penetrate the soul life of a human being by anthroposophical means will very soon notice how everything that flows up from the depths of the soul in this kind of indeterminate way with the physical body, how at first quietly, then more and more, our entire state of health, which makes us capable of living or unable to live, can depend on these subconscious soul moods.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"Anthroposophy and the Riddle of the Soul","site_heading":null,"date":"1922-01-17","location":null,"word_count":258,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/80a/1922-01-17/p005","alignment_confidence":"high","alignment_reason":"beads:identity","two_voice_volume":false,"translation_credit":{"scope":"unit","status":"established","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Essence of Anthroposophy","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA080a/English/SOL2024/19220117p01.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.

In diesen Rätselfragen lebt er darinnen, diese Rätselfragen machen im Grunde dasjenige aus, was zunächst seelische Gesundheit und Krankheit sein kann, was aber auch zur körperlichen Gesundheit und Krankheit werden kann. Denn — meine sehr verehrten Anwesenden — das Seelenleben, es ist etwas außerordentlich Kompliziertes, so einfach es zunächst auch erscheinen mag. Dasjenige, was wir während unseres tagwachen Zustandes vom Morgen bis zum Abend in unserem Bewusstsein tragen — es ist ja heute durchaus auch wissenschaftlich anerkannt —, das ist ja nur ein Teil unseres Seelenlebens. Ein großer Teil unseres Seelenlebens ruht in unbewussten — oder ich könnte auch sagen —, unterbewussten Tiefen, schlägt seine Wellen herauf in Form von unbestimmten Empfindungen, von unbestimmten Stimmungen, wohl auch von allerlei anderen Seeleninhalten, und bildet dasjenige, was eine unbestimmte Grundverfassung unseres Seelenlebens ist. Dasjenige aber, was [sich] in dieser Weise mehr oder weniger unbestimmt in den Untergründen unseres Seelenlebens abspielt und heraufflutet, das hängt innig zusammen mit demjenigen, was eigentlich das Glück oder Leid unseres Lebens ist. Und gerade derjenige, der auf anthroposophischem Wege versucht, in das Seelenleben des Menschen einzudringen, der merkt sehr bald, wie alles, was in einer solchen Art unbestimmt aus den Tiefen des Seelischen heraufflutet, mit dem Körperlich-Leiblichen zusammenhängt, wie zuerst leise, dann immer mehr und mehr unser ganzer Gesundheitszustand, der uns lebenstüchtig oder lebensunfähig macht, von diesen unterbewussten Seelenstimmungen abhängen kann.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":242,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/80a/1922-01-17/p005"}],"english":["GA 80a/1922-01-17/p005"],"method":"identity","confidence":"high","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":242,"en_words":258,"ratio":1.07,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"verified","verified":true,"evidence":["length","meaning","audit"]},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.06,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":10325,"original_word_count":9735,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Essence of Anthroposophy","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA080a/English/SOL2024/19220117p01.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.
