He is considered the father of Waldorf education, biodynamic agriculture, anthroposophical medicine and spiritual science. Human physical nature in relationship to the world of the soul and the spirit: head? developed body, dreaming soul and sleeping spirit; chest? wakefulness in the body-soul, dreaming of the spirit; limbs? wakefulness in the still unformed body, soul and spirit.
