Somnambulism
If Samadhi even endangers life, then what tension of energy must be required for the assimilation of fire! But the transmutation of consciousness creates such an intensely ecstatic state that the manifestation of the fiery tension only corresponds to the power of the new being. Somnambulism sets up this fiery resistance even on Earth. In a certain state the somnambulist acquires a phosphorescence that completely safeguards him from burning, even in a strong fire; such cases are well known, both in the East and in the West. But of course, somnambulism is a transmutation of consciousness which kindles, as it were, the entire nervous essence, and thus the fire is absorbed by the fire of the aura. Hence it gives a certain idea of the transformation of the fiery body. (FW I, 659)
