Minutus

Hi H.
concluding statement:
The Baron is the only one (afaik) whose publicashed cases *can* be
compared to the documents. We have no other casebooks of classical
homeopaths except of Hahnemann, who did not - to any extent - publish
about his own practice.

Also: Some of Hahnemann's casebooks have been published - and
some of these again have been commented on in great detail.

I now do understand why no publisher has considered it worth his while
to have any of those translated into English. No-one would be
interested enough to buy them. Julian Winston did say that on
Lyghtforce years ago, but I could not believe him.

Referral to Hahnemann and the classical homeopaths ( you cannot get
more classical than v. Boenninghausen, who was Hahnemann's star
student and converted more MDs to homeopathy than anyone else,
including Hahnemann himself) seems to be nothing but lip service
nowadays. I can just imagine what would have happened if at the time
of Boericke, Tafel etc. those casebooks had been available for
translation.
I think I clearly stated that this is just one of the reasons. But yes
- this potency phantom, as you call it, is still one of the most
powerful clubs the "classicals" wield over the others.

I am surprised that there is no outcry on this list about what you are
saying below. On the German list it would raise havoc! And do not
forget: My publications are primarily for the German readers - I just
threw in the English translation for good measure:-)

But I am reconsidering. If people like you, whose opinion I can
respect, think that "Project v. Boenninghausen" is a waste of time,
(and the others never even bother to read) I
tend to believe it as far as the translating is concerned. I'll
probably forget about it. The material will be there in German - let
others do the translating, if they want!

Regards

Luise

I am not saying that the case books are not worth translating or
buying. it should be an excellent source and study material for all.

You are presenting the facts and it will be the truth for different
people for different reasons... just that not all will be
concentrating on the "massaging" part- and even if they did for me it
does not matter....

In Tamil ( my language) we have a saying - "Do not see who says it- it
it is wise to see only if there is any "truth" in it..."

So even if Boenninghausen's method of demonstrating the efficacy of
high potencies might be questionable if you dig deeper, the fact that
high potencies are effective is not in doubt- of course I will never
say that low potencies are not... there is a field for both based on
the needs... Dr.Koppikar a highly respected homeopath of may be 70
years of homeopathic practice tells the story of cancer pains
