Edith Maryon to Rudolf Steiner

Schnorrstraße 10

Munich, 12.9.13 Dear Teacher,

May I report to you on some of the results of my exercises? I had intended to do so on Sunday, but unfortunately didn't, although I have wanted to ask you some questions for two months now, and I will have to wait until Berlin to get answers. Because of something you said, I fear you think I'm not doing my exercises; but I really enjoy doing these exercises and try to put as much into them as possible, even if it's never enough. I have not told you anything because I feel that you can see everything you want and that my experiences are perhaps not important enough to talk about.

1. I feel warmth in the region of the heart, which flows down through the arms and hands - is this the fire of Kundalini? How can it be directed?

2. There are all kinds of strange experiences with the lotus flower of the eyes; how can the currents that emanate from it be directed so that they come into contact with spiritual beings? I now often see something on the mountains that I think is my “higher self” and I thought that maybe I could get ahead through this.

3. Then I feel as if something is taking shape in front of my face and chest, like some kind of organ: I feel and see in a sense all sorts of tubes, one of which is around my head and connects my throat and ears; my throat seems to expand and something seems to rise in it.

And then there are all kinds of other things, but I don't want to take up any more of your time.

*With love and gratitude*, [in German].

Your student,

L. Edith C. Maryon
