Questions Regarding Health in Light of Spiritual Science

If a materialistic view focuses too much on the merely material, then it would be necessary for this materialistic view to move in the direction that has just been indicated. It would actually be impossible for them to stereotype and standardize. And how we stereotype in our time! For example, it is readily said that this or that food or this or that medicine is harmful. A veritable epidemic of stereotyping has broken out, and this is inevitable unless all one-sidedness is excluded in the fight against the various methods of healing. An epidemic has broken out under the keyword “power,” so that, for example, at gatherings of naturopaths, it is said that this or that is “power.” With this, people believe they have done enough to denigrate this or that and say that they are based solely on the material. Those who claim to regard human beings as individuals should also take this into consideration. But even when looking at other living beings, for example, the word “power” basically loses all meaning. Our views on such matters need to be modified. Who would not think of assuming a special power for humans when they hear, for example, that rabbits eat hemlock without harm, while Socrates died from it? Goats can also eat hemlock without harm, as can aconite, monkshood, and even horses. In all these cases, we must therefore always consider the individual organism. When we consider the individual organism, we come to the conclusion that something may be right for one person in a particular case, but “one size does not fit all”!
