In the lecture he gave on September 20, 1924, Rudolf Steiner asserted the following:
« In spiritual science
(anthroposophy is, after all, only a name) genuine investigation is made into
how the potato nourishes the human being, the potato is found to be something
that is not completely digested by the digestive organs, but it passes into the
head through the lymph glands, through the blood, in such a way that the head
itself must also serve as a digestive organ for the potato. When potatoes are
eaten in large quantities, the head becomes a kind of stomach and also digests.
This kind of knowledge can never be derived from natural
science. When things are genuinely investigated with respect to their spiritual
quality, it becomes apparent that in this modern age humanity has been
seriously injured by the excessive consumption of potatoes. Spiritual science
finds that the eating of potatoes has played a very large part in the general
deterioration of health in recent centuries.
People believe that when their
stomach is full of potatoes, they have had a nourishing meal. The truth is that
the health of their head is impaired, because the head itself then has to
become a digestive organ. »
But this Rudolf Steiner’s affirmation
is completely false because later it was discovered that in the brain, there is
no substance that serves to digest aliments.
And that is why, neither science
nor any genuine esoteric teaching, they mention that the brain also exercises
the function of a digestive organ. Only in the Rudolf Steiner’s imagination, that
he confused with clairvoyance.
This assertion is a lie more
invented by Rudolf Steiner.
