The I-bearer or I-body, I-shell or I-organisation, which is formed by the I, is the fourth member of man embodied on Earth. It is an expression of the immortal I, which intervenes in the body through incarnation in order to work on the transformation of its bodily shells (physical body, etheric body and astral body) and thereby develops itself further.

„It has emerged from the preceding considerations that the beingness of man is built up from the four members: Physical body, life body, astral body and I-bearer. The "I" works within the other three members and transforms them. Through such transformation, the following arise on a lower level: the sentient soul, the intellectual soul and the consciousness soul. On a higher level of human existence the following are formed: spirit self, life spirit and spirit man. These members of human nature now stand in the most manifold relations to the whole universe and their development is connected with the development of this universe.“ (Lit.:GA 13, p. 137)
