For spiritual-scientific research, the heart is an extraordinarily interesting organ. You know that our trivial science is inclined to treat knowledge of the heart rather lightly. It looks upon the heart as a pump which pumps the blood through the body. Nothing more absurd can be believed, for the heart has nothing to do with pumping the blood. The blood is set in motion by the full agility of the astral body and ego, and the heart's movement is only the reflex of these activities. The movement of the blood is autonomous, and the heart only brings to expression the movement caused by these forces. The heart is in fact only the organ that manifests the movement of the blood, the heart itself having no activity in relation to this blood movement. The present natural scientists become very angry if you speak of this. Many years ago, I think in 1904 or 1905, on a journey to Stockholm I explained this to a scientist, a medical man, and he was furious about the idea that the heart should not be regarded as a pump, that the blood comes into movement through its own vitality, that the heart is simply inserted in the general blood movement, participates with its beat, and so on.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":221,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/en/ga/205/1921-07-02/p023","german_anchor":{"de_prefix":"1921-07-02","de_passages":[{"locus":"GA 205/1921-07-02/p015","url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/205/1921-07-02/p015"}],"bead_confidence":"high","pairing_state":"proposed","verified":false,"length_check":{"de_words":227,"en_words":221,"ratio":0.97,"partial":false},"correspondence":"established","note":"English passage numbering is edition-relative, so the same number need not name the same paragraph in the German.

Nun, man kann nichts Unsinnigeres meinen als dieses, denn das Herz hat überhaupt nichts zu tun mit irgendeinem Pumpen des Blutes, sondern das Blut wird durch die ganze Regsamkeit des astralischen Leibes, des Ich, in Tätigkeit versetzt, und das Herz ist nur der Reflex dieser Bewegungen. Die Bewegung des Blutes ist eine Eigenbewegung, und das Herz bringt nur zum Ausdruck, was die Bewegung des Blutes, die Kräfte verursachen. Das Herz ist tatsächlich nur das Organ, das ausdrückt die Blutsbewegung; das Herz hat gar keine Aktivität in bezug auf die Blutsbewegung. Die gegenwärtigen Naturwissenschafter werden ganz fuchswild, wenn man von dieser Sache spricht. Ich habe einmal vor vielen Jahren, ich glaube 1904 oder 1905, auf einer Reise nach Stockholm einem Naturforscher, einem Mediziner, diese Sache auseinandergesetzt, und er wurde fast tobsüchtig darüber, daß man das Herz nicht mehr als Pumpe ansehen soll, sondern daß es das Blut selber ist, das durch seine Vitalität in Bewegung kommt und daß das Herz eben nur eingefügt ist in die allgemeine Blutsbewegung und sie mitmacht im Schlage und so weiter.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"word_count":227,"url":"https://anthroposophy.ai/v1/steiner/de/ga/205/1921-07-02/p015"},{"locus":"GA 205/1921-07-02/p016","passage_number":16,"text":"Nun, an dem Herzen wird allerdings etwas reflektiert, was schon nicht mehr bloß eigentlich Gedächtnis- oder Gewohnheitssache ist, sondern es spiritualisiert sich da schon, wenn es an die Außenwand des Herzens kommt, das Leben.

Das ist einfach, ich möchte sagen, ganz physischerseits zu nehmen: die Gewissensbisse, die in unser Bewußtsein hereinstrahlen, sie sind dasjenige, was von unseren Erlebnissen durch das Herz reflektiert wird. So lehrt es einen die spirituelle Erkenntnis des Herzens.
