And this further development happens precisely through the higher knowledge of the human being, through the attainment of a third state of consciousness. Through the intensification of thinking, feeling and willing, something is achieved that is, on the one hand, similar to the world of sleep, out of which dreaming arises, and, on the other hand, is completely opposed to it. When we say we fall asleep, we let the dream sound from the world of sleep; so we have to say: in the world of supersensible consciousness, into which anthroposophical research wants to penetrate, there is not a falling asleep, but on the contrary a higher awakening. There is an experience in a world that is similar to and yet very different from the world of dreams; similar in that it ceases when we submerge into the full physical life with the dream world, which, after all, flits past us in moments, say, of waking up, and immediately gives way to the life that permeates the thoughts imbued with will. The life in consciousness that is attained in the manner indicated can and must likewise cease when it submerges into ordinary human corporeality. Just as the dream fades away, so the higher consciousness ceases when it submerges into corporeality. This waking up, this higher state of consciousness, if I may use the much-debated term, hovers, I would like to say, in a lightness just like that of the dream world – but on the other hand it is opposed to it because it is interspersed with certain thoughts in just as strict a sense as waking daytime cognition.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"5.

Und diese weitere Ausbildung geschieht eben gerade durch die höhere Erkenntnis des Menschen, durch die Erringung eines dritten Bewusstseinszustandes. Durch Verstärkung von Denken, Fühlen und Wollen wird etwas erreicht, was auf der einen Seite ähnlich ist der Schlafenswelt, aus der das Träumen heraufflutet, und auf der anderen Seite wieder völlig entgegengesetzt ist. Wenn wir sagen, wir schlafen ein, lassen wir aus der Schlafenswelt den Traum heraufklingen; so müssen wir sagen: In der Welt des übersinnlichen Bewusstseins, in welche die anthroposophische Forschung eindringen will, da findet nun nicht ein Einschlafen, sondern im Gegenteil ein höheres Aufwachen statt. Es findet statt ein Erleben in einer Welt, die ähnlich und wieder ganz verschieden von der Traumeswelt ist; ähnlich insoferne, als dass sie, wenn wir mit der Traumeswelt, die ja in Augenblicken, sagen wir, des Aufwachens an uns vorüberhuscht, wenn wir mit ihr untertauchen in das volle physisch-leibliche Leben, aufhört, sogleich demjenigen Leben weicht, das die willensdurchflossenen Gedanken durchsetzt. Dasjenige Leben im Bewusstsein, das in der angedeuteten Art erreicht wird, kann ebenso aufhören und muss ebenso aufhören, wenn es untertaucht in die gewöhnliche menschliche Leiblichkeit. So wie der Traum verglimmt, so hört das höhere Bewusstsein auf, wenn es in die Leiblichkeit untertaucht. Dieses Aufwachen, dieses höhere Erwecktsein, wenn ich mich des viel umstrittenen Ausdrucks bedienen darf, das schwebt, ich möchte sagen in einer ebensolchen Leichtigkeit, wie die Traumeswelt ist — aber auf der anderen Seite ihr deshalb entgegengesetzt, weil es in ebenso strengem Sinne durchsetzt ist von den sicheren Gedanken wie das wache Tageserkennen.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":286,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/80b/1922-02-12/p022"}],"english":["GA 80b/1922-02-12/p023"],"method":"length","confidence":"medium","correspondence":"established","length_check":{"de_words":286,"en_words":302,"ratio":1.06,"partial":false},"pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false},"witness_completeness":{"ratio":1.03,"band":"comparable","note":null,"word_count":8163,"original_word_count":7949,"may_be_abridged":false},"witness_quality":{"translator":{"scope":"unit","status":"recorded","translator":"Steiner Online Library","identified_edition":"SOL2024","book_title":"The Inner Nature and Essence of the Human Soul","publisher":"Steiner Online Library","publisher_inferred":true,"match_score":1.0,"source_url":"https://www.rsarchive.org/Lectures/GA080b/English/SOL2024/19220212p01.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.
