It is a matter of simply surrendering oneself with one's aesthetic sense to the forms that arise from the nature of the organism; of surrendering oneself to these forms, without going into the details, in the same way that every single linguistic or tonal phenomenon in eurythmy is presented in a lawful manner – because it is done lawfully. This is necessary if one is to feel in one's immediate impression what can be artistically represented in this way.
