Food is more than substance; food also contains forces.
Ehhrenfried Pfeiffer, one of the students of Rudolf Steiner, who distinguished himself in the fields of natural science and agriculture, once asked his teacher:
“How is it that, despite your numerous indications, the spiritual impulse, especially the inner path of development, is so little effective in the isolated person. How is it that, despite theoretical insight and the will to action, the successful undertaking of the spiritual impulses is so weak?”
Rudolf Steiner's answer was remarkable and surprising: "That is a problem of nutrition. Nutrition today does not give man the strength to manifest the spiritual in the physical. The bridge from thinking to willing and acting cannot be built anymore." In this statement we have, in shocking clarity, the expression of the importance of nutrition to the modern path of spiritual training.
The Biodynamic farming method results in food that is more imbued with needed forces than food grown conventionally.
