Foundation Stone

WILLEM ZEYLMANS VAN EMMICHOVEN, born in Holland in 1893, was a pupil of Rudolf Steiner. A medical doctor and founder of the Rudolf Steiner Clinic in Scheveningen, he was also General Secretary of the Anthroposophical Society in the Netherlands, in which capacity he attended the Christmas Foundation Meeting. Zeylmans also conducted important research into the influence of colours, the psychology of peoples and nations, and the psychology of the individual human being.

"Anthroposophy can become fruitful in the world when a community of people is actively working with the Foundation Stone Meditation. When Zeylmans van Emmichoven revived this Meditation around the whole world, a process began through which the Anthroposophical Society itself, which has been through many conflicts and battles, could be healed again." - Joop van Dam
