I do not mean everything, but just a certain phase of it. For example, the ancient Indian yoga process, which should truly not be experienced as a warm-up in anthroposophy. We can see this from the fact that what I am describing initially seems very similar to this yoga process, doesn't it? But if you don't put it there yourself, you won't find that what I am describing is similar to the yoga process. This consisted in the fact that at a stage of human development in which the whole human life was less differentiated than it is today, it was felt that the rhythmic breathing process was connected with the thinking process. Today we look at the matter physiologically. Today we know: When we breathe, when we inhale, we simultaneously press the respiratory force through the spinal canal into the brain. In the brain, the breathing process continues in a metamorphosed way, so that, physiologically speaking, we have a synthesis of the breathing process and the thinking process.","text_trust":"verbatim","quote_safe":true,"title":"6.

Wenn man das aber nicht selbst erst hineinlegt, so werden sie nicht finden, daß das, was ich schildere, dem Yogaprozeß ähnlich ist. Dieser bestand darin, daß auf einer Stufe der Menschheitsentwicklung, in der das ganze menschliche Leben weniger differenziert war als heute, empfunden wurde, wie der rhythmische Atmungsprozeß in einem Zusammenhange war mit dem Denkprozeß.

Heute wissen wir: Indem wir atmen, indem wir einatmen, drücken wir zu gleicher Zeit durch den Rückenmarkskanal die Atemkraft, also wir drücken die Atemluft in das Gehirn hinein.
