Now what kind of approach by the reader did THE PHILOSOPHY OF
SPIRITUAL ACTIVITY count on? It had to assume a special way of
reading. It expected the reader, as he read, to undergo the sort of
inner experience that, in an external sense, is really just waking
up out of sleep in the morning. The feeling one should have about
it is such as to make one say, "My relationship to the world in
passive thoughts was, on a higher level, that of a person who lies
asleep. Now I am waking up." It is like knowing, at the moment of
awakening, that one has been lying passively in bed, letting nature
have her way with one's body. But then one begins to be inwardly
active. One relates one's senses actively to what is going on in
the color permeated, sounding world about one. One links one's own
bodily activity to one's intentions. The reader of The Philosophy
of Spiritual Activity should experience something very like this
waking moment of transition from passivity to activity, though of
course on a higher level. He should be able to say, "Yes, I have
certainly thought thoughts before. But my thinking took the form of
just letting thoughts flow and carry me along. Now, little by
little, I am beginning to be inwardly active in them." - from
Rudolf Steiner's AWAKENING TO COMMUNITY
