The Human Heart

Lecture given in Dornach, May 26, 1922 (CW 212)

According to Rudolf Steiner, the human heart is the unique organ in forming karma. It is through the heart’s relationships to the physical, etheric, astral bodies, and “I,” that future karma is created. This lecture traces the evolution of the human heart, from the embryo through the different stages of human life. Essential reading for those striving toward new therapies and education for the future of humankind.
