How Does The Human Being Move? The Problem of Motor Nerves

The question of how our muscles become ‘conscious’ of our desire to move is an obvious one.  In my view, we should take as the basis of our observations the idea that what we call our nervous system is only the physical expression of what lives everywhere in our body as activity of perception. There is something that guides us in a certain direction, but that means that there has to be some unknown connection between what guides us and our ‘muscle being’, as there is in the case of conscious actions. Just as our muscle being ‘listens’ to the movements we want to make, so it also listens to the guiding impulse of our destiny, our karma.

About the Author

Leendert F. C. Mees, M.D. (1902–1990), was born in Amsterdam and studied medicine before becoming a student of the anthropologist Louis Bolk. At the time, he also met Rudolf Steiner and became a lifelong student of Anthroposophy. From 1930 on, he practiced general medicine in The Hague and was also a doctor and teacher at the Waldorf school there. In 1959, he and his wife established a clinic for artistic therapy in Dreibergen. In 1969, he began writing extensively and lecturing worldwide on medicine, evolution, education, and other topics.
