	And if the position of the heart tends a little to the left side, then this position is an expression of the way in which on the one side Lucifer wants to catch something for himself, while on the other side Ahriman wants to catch something. The whole left-right relationship is an expression of that in which Lucifer and Ahriman fight each other in man, only that in man, as I have said, what lies on both sides of the plane is in a certain respect the same.

			== The liver and the inner disposition of the brain of the following incarnation ==

			While the [[lungs]] essentially determine the shape of the [[head]] of the following incarnation, the inner disposition of the [[brain]] for the next life on earth is formed through the liver. If these forces already become effective in the present incarnation, this leads to [[hallucination]]s or strong [[vision]]s.

			{{GZ\|If you now study the liver in the same way as I have now explained for the lungs, you will find that there is also concentrated in the interior of the liver all the forces which in the next incarnation will be transferred to the inner dispositions of the brain. So again, in the diversions of the metabolic organism of the present life, the inner forces of the liver pass over, but now not into the form of the head like the lungs, but into the inner disposition of the brain. Whether a person is a sharp thinker in the next incarnation depends on how he behaves in the present incarnation. So that, therefore, on the diversions through the metabolism in the liver, certain forces appear; but if these forces are squeezed out in the present incarnation, then they lead to hallucinations or strong visions.\|205\|103}}

			== Liver and Ahriman ==

			{{GZ\|With regard to the head of man, Lucifer and Ahriman have thrown up quite the same works of attachment on the left and right. The left and right halves of the head are very similar, the forces are such that they can play little into each other, that they touch little the surface in the middle. In the middle is the surface, on the left Lucifer, on the right Ahriman; but because the left and right halves of the head are formed so similarly, they bounce off each other: Lucifer and Ahriman, and man can develop a calm activity in the middle here (see drawing page 121). His thinking is quite little disturbed by the influence of Lucifer and Ahriman, because there they bounce off each other.

			If one goes further down, it is no longer so. On the one hand Lucifer succeeds in piling up the stomach, on the other hand Ahriman succeeds in piling up the liver. And the stomach is the means through which Lucifer fights from left to right, the liver is something through which Ahriman fights from right to left. The relation of stomach and liver is seen in the right way, if we consider that Lucifer succeeds in piling up the stomach on the left as a kind of means of struggle, and that Ahriman succeeds in piling up the liver on the right. This is in a perpetual struggle, and science would do well to really study this struggle between the stomach and the liver.

			[[File:GA158_121.gif\|center\|300px\|Drawing from GA 158, p. 121]]

			And if the position of the heart tends a little to the left side, then this position is an expression of the way in which on the one side Lucifer wants to catch something for himself, while on the other side Ahriman wants to catch something. The whole left-right relationship is an expression of that in which Lucifer and Ahriman fight each other in man, only that in man, as I have said, what lies on both sides of the plane is in a certain respect the same. But we see that it is really only equal up there; it ceases to be equal the further down we pursue man.\|158\|120f}}

	With regard to what I am about to say, you can really devise your experimental methods as precisely as possible. For first of all, look at lower animals in which there is not yet any approach to an I-organisation, considered from the point of view of the soul. There you will find no developed liver, even less bile acid in the process. These things develop phylogenetically only in the course of the animal series, when it goes towards the ego-organisation. The strength of the I-organisation that a being develops goes in parallel with the development of its liver and bile. And in the same way, of course, you can carry out physiological series of experiments, which you only have to extend over the different ages of human beings. Then you will see how the function of the liver is connected with what is present in the human being as an I-organisation. You have only to observe certain pathological conditions, let us say, certain children's diseases, which have a lethal outcome, and you will already find how certain mental organisations, which do not go towards the sensory side, but towards the I-side, are connected with the secretion of bile. Then you will find that an immensely fruitful series of experimental methods opens up, some of which can be selected from what is offered by sensory-empirical science, and which only have to be trained. You will see that just as the physical organisation is connected with carbon, the etheric organisation with oxygen, the astral organisation with nitrogen, so the ego-organisation is connected with hydrogen. You will be able to integrate all the differentiations of heat - I can only hint at this here - into that which hydrogen exercises as its special function, naturally always in connection with other substances, in the human organism. And thus, by ascending immediately from the sensuous into the supersensuous, but by grasping this supersensuous by envisaging its physical representatives, we come to be able to conceive of the whole human being, as it were, as a very complicated cell which is ensouled and spiritualised.\|314\|114f}}		With regard to what I am about to say, you can really devise your experimental methods as precisely as possible.

			== Liver and anabolic build-up processes ==

			Due to the strong [[ether]]eal activity, the anabolic processes predominate in the liver, which are predominantly endothermic, i.e. they consume heat. Contrary to a widespread opinion, which is sometimes still held in relevant reference works today<ref>cf. e.g.: http://www.spektrum.de/lexikon/biologie-kompakt/leber/6902</ref>, the liver temperature, i.e. the [[blood]] temperature in the liver is significantly lower than the average body temperature.

			{{LZ\|Despite the interlocking of liver and bile function, one can nevertheless see the "pure" building up in the liver, which is connected with reductive processes, i.e. runs endothermically. In other words: the liver needs heat for its function, the bile produces it. This interconnection of reduction and formation has already been touched on several times and is connected with the nature of animal metabolism in an animate organism. (see Vol. II, p. 121).

			Related to this is the finding that the liver temperature is 0.2-0.6 ° C lower than the body temperature<ref>Graf, et al, ''Gastroenterologia'' 83, 1955. 233.</ref> These findings could also be confirmed under other conditions (e.g. Grayson in Nigeria).

			== The liver as a mirror organ for recalling emotionally coloured thoughts ==

			The liver surface is a mirror organ through which [[emotion]]ally coloured thoughts can be recalled in [[memory]]:

			{{GZ\|Take the lung organisation, liver organisation, and so on, you come to look inward, as it were, to survey the surface of the individual organs, of course by looking inward mentally. What is this surface of the organs? This surface of the organs is nothing other than a reflecting apparatus for the soul life. What we perceive and also what we process mentally is reflected on the surface of all our inner organs, and this reflection means our memories, our memory during life. So what is reflected there, after we have perceived and processed it, on the outer surface of our heart, our lungs, our spleen and so on, what is reflected back there, that is what gives off the memories. And with a training that is not very far-reaching, you can already notice how certain thoughts radiate back to the whole organism in the memory. The most diverse organs are involved. If, for example, we are dealing with the recollection of, let us say, very abstract thoughts, the lungs, the surface of the lungs, are extremely strongly involved. When it is more a question of thoughts that are coloured by feeling, that is, thoughts that have a feeling nuance, then the liver surface is very strongly involved. So that we can really describe in detail how the individual organs of the human being are involved in this reflection, which then appears as memory, as the faculty of recollection. We must not, when we consider the soul, say: in the nervous system alone lies the parallel organism for the soul life; in the whole human organism lies this parallel organisation for the human soul life.\|205\|100f}}

			== Liver, warmth body and I-organisation ==

			The liver is closely connected with the heat body and with the [[I-organisation]] of the [[human being]], which in turn is especially connected with the [[hydrogen]].

			{{GZ\|... the kidney has an intimate relationship with the astral body, and the liver with the I.\|218\|80}}

			{{GZ\|Everything is absorbed into the I-organisation first through the hepatic-biliary system. That which is present in the heat structure and in all that is present in the hepatobiliary system as a heat structure radiates out in such a way that the human being is permeated with that which is I-organisation, which is bound in general to the heat differentiations in the whole organism.

			With regard to what I am about to say, you can really devise your experimental methods as precisely as possible. For first of all, look at lower animals in which there is not yet any approach to an I-organisation, considered from the point of view of the soul. There you will find no developed liver, even less bile acid in the process. These things develop phylogenetically only in the course of the animal series, when it goes towards the ego-organisation. The strength of the I-organisation that a being develops goes in parallel with the development of its liver and bile. And in the same way, of course, you can carry out physiological series of experiments, which you only have to extend over the different ages of human beings. Then you will see how the function of the liver is connected with what is present in the human being as an I-organisation. You have only to observe certain pathological conditions, let us say, certain children's diseases, which have a lethal outcome, and you will already find how certain mental organisations, which do not go towards the sensory side, but towards the I-side, are connected with the secretion of bile. Then you will find that an immensely fruitful series of experimental methods opens up, some of which can be selected from what is offered by sensory-empirical science, and which only have to be trained. You will see that just as the physical organisation is connected with carbon, the etheric organisation with oxygen, the astral organisation with nitrogen, so the ego-organisation is connected with hydrogen. You will be able to integrate all the differentiations of heat - I can only hint at this here - into that which hydrogen exercises as its special function, naturally always in connection with other substances, in the human organism. And thus, by ascending immediately from the sensuous into the supersensuous, but by grasping this supersensuous by envisaging its physical representatives, we come to be able to conceive of the whole human being, as it were, as a very complicated cell which is ensouled and spiritualised.\|314\|114f}}

			== Liver and musicality ==

			{{GZ\|But the important thing is that there is an important difference between the liver of a musician and the liver of a non-musician, because the liver has very, very much to do with what resounds in the human being from musical ideas. Yes, it is of no use to regard the liver as a minor organ in ascetic knowledge. This liver, which is apparently such a small organ, is the seat of everything that lives in the beautiful sequence of melodies, and the liver has a great deal to do with listening to a symphony. Only, of course, one must be clear that this liver also has an ether organ and that this has primarily to do with it.
