As a human being becomes more structurally balanced and upright, and all the ropes/muscles of the 'human tent', just as in the model above, approach relative balance versus each other and gravity, he or she will also experience more emotional, psychological and spiritual 'uprightness'.
The meditation on, what Dr. Rolf called 'the Line', is an opportunity for attempting to solve
one of humanity's most protracted riddles:
How can we have our feet firmly rooted in material reality, while at the same time
keeping our eyes fixed on the far stars?
The concept of the Line bridges the gap between purely anatomical considerations and philosophical or metaphysical Ideas, as expressed for instance in Zen Buddhism or Hatha Yoga.
