A lecture with Jessie Phelps.

Presented by Novalis Anthroposophical Group

“Novalis was able to see that waking life during the day with its mundane consciousness is only art of the experience of contemporary humanity; and that every soul, immersing itself at night in unconsciousness, is in fact plunging into a spiritual world. He was able to feel profoundly, and to know, that in these world of spirit in which the soul is plunged at night, a higher spiritual reality exists; and that the day with all its sense impressions, even those of sun and light, is only a small part of the totality of spiritual reality.  Thus the world of the night, the true world of spirit, dawn and make the night precious to him.”

Rudolf Steiner GA 108
