And when a person learns to recognize how he is independent of the body, then he finally comes to say to himself: Not only when the soul falls asleep does it, as it were, separate itself from the body and then return to the body when it wakes up; through the desire for the body lying in bed, it returns. Through such supersensible knowledge one also comes to really get to know the essence of the soul, how it returns to the body through this desire when waking up. But if you acquire such real concepts of falling asleep and waking up, these concepts will eventually expand to include learning to recognize the human soul in its essence, as it was before it descended from the spiritual worlds through birth or conception into a physical body that is given to it through inheritance.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"4.

Man kommt auch dazu, wirklich kennenzulernen durch solche übersinnliche Erkenntnis die Wesenheit der Seele, wie sie durch diese Begierde zu dem Leibe wieder zurückkehrt beim Aufwachen.
