The body it loses, the ego can direct continuously. You see, when I walk, my legs, although they are old, are in reality only six to seven years old at most. But I direct them with the old ego that was already there when I walked around as a boy. The ego is still walking around. The ego directs the body during life on earth. Gentlemen, I have explained to you how one actually gets the body. You see, science imagines – I already made this clear to you last time –: Well, you just get the body from your mother, your father. It is already prepared. You are already a small person. You inherit that; you inherit the body. Yes, this science, which claims that you inherit the body, is not really worth a shot of powder, but it is the case that if you just look at a bone – you now have to remember some of what I have told you before – if you look at the thigh bone, for example, you will find that it is a wonderful sight. A thigh bone like that has a whole scaffolding. The scaffolding of the Goetheanum was nothing compared to the beautiful scaffolding that this whole thigh bone has when viewed under the microscope, a wonderful scaffolding, beautifully built.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"VII.
