For the psyche will not unveil itself to us until we can trace the various levels of materiality—water, air and fire—in the individual organs. We must first condense the psychic element; only then shall we reach man's physical nature and come in turn, by passing through this, to the spiritual basis of our physical organism. Just as, when we sink shafts into ourselves with the aid of memory, we discover the laid-up experiences of our individual existence on earth, so too, in thus descending into the whole man, we shall find the spiritual element that has come down from the spiritual world through conception, foetal development and so on. In clothing itself in us, with what it acquires from the earth, this spiritual element becomes world-memory. We find the cosmos stored up as recollection inside us. And we thus find it possible—exactly as in ordinary consciousness we can remember the individual experience of personal existence—to survey the cosmos through inward contemplation.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"5.

Denn ehe wir nicht die verschiedenen Stufen der Materialität, Wasser, Luft, Feuer, in den einzelnen Organen verfolgen können, enthüllt sich uns auch nicht das Seelische. Wir müssen das Seelische zuerst verdichten, dann kommen wir erst zur physischen Natur des Menschen, dann aber wiederum, indem wir durch diese hindurchdringen, zu dem, was geistig-seelisch zunächst unserer physischen Organisation zugrunde liegt. Da finden wir dann: Geradeso wie wir, wenn wir mit unserer Gedächtniskraft in uns hineinbohren, die abgelegten Erlebnisse unseres persönlichen Erdendaseins finden, so finden wir, indem wir so untertauchen in den ganzen Menschen, das Geistig-Seelische, das heruntergestiegen ist aus der geistigen Welt durch die Konzeption, Keimentwickelung und so weiter. Indem dieses Geistig-Seelische in uns sich umhüllt hat mit dem, was ihm von der Erde zukommt, wird es zum Weltgedächtnis. Wir finden gewissermaßen den Kosmos erinnerungsmäßig in uns aufgespeichert.
