33. Eurythmy Performance

This is the case in the scene that is to be presented today and in which the eurythmic means of expression is used in particular. It shows how John undergoes such inner psychological processes. But it would only give a pale picture if, for example, John were to express them or if they were to be depicted symbolically. That is not real art, but one must see things in a concrete, pictorial way, one must go into the concrete and pictorial, so that what takes place between Mary and the soul forces - which appear as real spiritual powers, not merely as natural forces, but as real spiritual powers - is a revelation of that which is really present spiritually. Thus the presentation becomes something that really concerns people, something that plays into people from the spiritual world, just as earth magnetism plays into the magnetic needle.
