This holds in a unique way for the dandelion preparation. How many relation-bearing conditions must sound together to bestow upon the dandelion's blossom the capacity — a kind of sense-force — to draw silica in from the cosmic periphery? What a magnificent relational nexus must hold sway in the cow's metabolism in order to create with the mesentery an organ that on the one hand bears a sense-relation to the substances of the food-stream coming from without, and on the other hand mediates the result of this perceiving to the cow's astral being? The union of both — of the blossom and of the peritoneal mesentery — creates a synthesis of a higher order, a manure-substance whose working represents an enhancement of both polar qualities.
