Attachment 1-4. These all come from a series of 11 public lectures Steiner gave in 1923-1924 in various cities. They deal with medicine and healing and have been collected and put in a book called, The Healing Process: Spirit, Nature and Our Bodies (CW 319)….These 4 attachments here are copies of large segments of a lecture or even whole lectures that include topics besides cancer, but provide a context and development of his thought….

A key point Steiner makes is that carcinoma development is due to a “sense organ process”, not a nerve or neurological process, that is inappropriately deposited in usually the metabolic-limb system and has a parasitic physical life of its own. He addresses the development of remedies from an anthropsophic perspective and inserts therapeutic eurythmy in the continuum of therapeutic modalities,…

Steiner also reviews the threefold human being as consisting of the nerve-sense system, the rhythmic system, and the metabolic-limb system, and provides interesting, specific relationships of these systems to the fourfold members and various substances, such as silicon, oxygen and carbon, and their working in various ill conditions (typhoid fever, cancer and migraine). From this and other things he presents, we can understand his conclusion that our spiritual nature (“I” and astral body) are intimately connected to illness! (See lecture 9, p.145.)
