The fluid metabolism ends in the bladder. It absorbs, concentrates, and discharges into the outer world what the kidney, in its perception of the soul-permeated fluid organism, releases from the interior as unusable. The activity of kidney and bladder stands in a striking relationship to its counter-pole: the outwardly directed nerve-sense activity. This holds above all for the eye, and in the stag for the antlers, which after dying off remain for some months until shedding as a kind of groping sense organ. The eye, in its structure governed almost entirely by the laws of physics, appears like a piece of the outer world that sinks "gulf-like" into the organism.[1] The antlers grow as limb-bones beyond the head and die away, quite literally, into an object of the outer world.

The physical and spiritual dependencies of the human being), Dornach 1983, S. 158: «In die Sinne erstreckt sich die Außenwelt wie in Golfen hinein in das Wesen des Organismus.» (Into the senses the outer world extends, as into gulfs, into the being of the organism.)
