We have to change over to the sphere of active, living thinking in order to experience our etheric body. What we then have to bear in mind is that in that world everything is different from what we experience while bound to the physical world of the senses. In the first place the things and happenings we know from the aspect of the physical world appear in quite a different light in these higher worlds. As it is, the things and events encountered in the physical world are after all only final manifestations. They have their source in the higher worlds; so that we then see more into the primary origins of our surroundings in the physical world. But apart from that, when in the physical world we have, to begin with, the world well known to ordinary consciousness, where man is surrounded by the three kingdoms of nature besides his own. But when we rise to those powers of cognition—in my books I have used the expression ‘Imaginative Cognition’—which enable us to experience our own etheric body or the body of formative forces, we enter the etheric world. And we have sufficiently developed and strengthened our faculties when we have kindled the inner light and can experience ourselves, as it were, in the Second Man, in the body of formative forces; we then enter the world which, at any rate to begin with, reveals itself to us in images: the world of the Angeloi, Archangeloi and Archai.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":296,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/84/1923-04-22/p005","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1923-04-22","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 84/1923-04-22/p005","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/84/1923-04-22/p005"}],"bead_confidence":"medium","pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"length_check":{"de_words":289,"en_words":296,"ratio":1.02,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

But when we regard the world in which the third Hierarchy is revealed to us, we do not have colours adhering to things, sounds reverberating from objects, and so on, but colours, sounds, warmth and cold flowing and vibrating—one can hardly say through space—but flowing and vibrating in *time*. Colour is not spread over the surface of things but it fluctuates and moves in waves. And by applying the faculties which enabled us to enter these worlds, we know that, just as in the physical world colour-effect suggests a material foundation, so in yonder world the floating cloud of colour, a flowing organism of colour, is the manifestation of the working and weaving of the spirit-and-soul forces of the third Hierarchy. So that the moment we behold the life-tableau of which I have spoken, which gives a clear and spontaneous picture of the whole of our life since birth, there also appears within this stream of our own life's events something of which one can. say: within the de-materialised world of flowing colours and sounds lives the third Hierarchy.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":241,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/84/1923-04-22/p007","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1923-04-22","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 84/1923-04-22/p007","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/84/1923-04-22/p007"}],"bead_confidence":"medium","pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"length_check":{"de_words":267,"en_words":241,"ratio":0.9,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

Das ist nicht über die Oberfläche der Dinge hingespannt; was farbig ist, sondern das fluktuiert, das wellt. Nur weiß man einfach durch diejenigen Kräfte, durch die man sich in diese Welten versetzt hat, daß ebenso, wie man in der physischen Welt hinter dem Farbigen etwas Materielles vermutet, daß, wenn man irgendeine flutende Farbenwolke, einen flutenden, man kann schon sagen, Farbenorganismus in dieser Welt erblickt, darinnen ein Geistig-Seelisches waltet und webt, das zur dritten Hierarchie gehört. In dem Augenblicke also, wo dem Menschen jenes Lebenstableau erscheint, von dem ich gesprochen habe, das anschaulich zeigt, wie in einem Momente überschaubar, was wir durchlebt haben seit unserer Geburt, in diesem Augenblick lebt auch in dieser Strömung unserer eigenen Lebensereignisse drinnen dasjenige, von dem man sagen kann: Innerhalb der von der Materie freigewordenen flutenden Farben-, Tonwelt und so weiter, lebt nun die dritte Hierarchie.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":267,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/84/1923-04-22/p007"},{"locus":"GA 84/1923-04-22/p008","passage_number":8,"text":"Wenn wir uns dann durch die Kraft unseres Erkenntnisvermögens aufschwingen dazu, unseren eigenen astralischen Leib zu überblicken, also das, was von uns vorhanden war, ehe wir zum Erdendasein heruntergestiegen sind, was wir wiederum an uns tragen werden, wenn wir durch die Pforte des Todes geschritten sind, dann wissen wir: das ist eine weitere Welt, aber eine Welt, die wir auch nicht im Äther des Kosmos finden, die hinter dem Tor der Geburt und des Todes liegt.
