The body (Greek: σώμα soma; German: Leib) is that fundamental member which gives a being, especially a human being, its characteristic form or shape. In anthroposophy the term «body» is not merely restricted to the physical body, for the body abandoned by life is the corpse, but one means the living body, that is, the connection between the physical body and the etheric body, which is never completely dissolved during the life of man on Earth. In a broader sense, the astral body, the bearer of desires and sensations, must also be added to the bodily existence.
