The Evoultionary Sequence

B M D - N R L - G Ch F - S H T

Rudolf Steiner created a sound-sequence of twelve consonants, in which the whole human being is expressed. He calls it the “Evolutionary Sequence” according to the human development. We can speak of the  sound-sequence of the human being, of a contemporary alphabet. We can speak of a qualitative gradation of sounds, of a path of development of four times three sounds.
