Homeopathic agg

Dear Vera,

The psychic trinity in Homeopath is Soul (Gr. Seele), the rational
spirit or intellect (Gr. Geist) and the emotional disposition (Gr. Gemuet).
This makes up the spiritual level of the human being. On the vital plane
there is the human Esse (Gr. Wesen), the vital force (Gr. Lebenskraft) and
vitality (L. Vigour Vita). On the physical plane we have the physical
organism and its systems, organs and parts. All of these levels work
synergistically to make up a human being. Hahnemann wrote in the first
sentence of the Introduction to the Organon that as long as humanity has
existed people have been exposed individually and collectively to diseases
or moral and physical causes. Thus disease may be collective or individual
or a combination of both and it may be mental or moral or a mixture of
both. Thus the human condition is simply intricate and intricately simple.

There are two types of causation, the persona and the collective. There
are also disease caused by a single cause and those caused by multiple
causes. There are three types of diseases, the acute, the subacute and the
chronic. There are four major types of long lasting chronic diseases, those
caused by the never well since syndrome, those drugs, toxins, poisons,
those caused by maintaining causes, and those caused by chronic miasms. The
proximate cause of most diseases are based on an aetiological constellation
rather then any one thing you can point out as the "sole cause".

We do not live in a perfect world. Some things are within the individual
sphere and others are collective. Persons are born with different
characters, different predispositions and different chronic miasms. Some
persons with serious chronic miasms are "old souls" that do not succumb to
intemperance and maintain a good mental outlook. Others are "troubled
souls" who seem born to suffer on all planes and are self destructive. Some
persons seem morally strengthened by serious physical diseases while others
seem defeated by every little discomfort. In essence, true "pathology" is
based on the state of mind not the physical abilities as everyone is born,
everyone gets old, every gets sick and everyone dies. This is the human
condition yet we are spirits not bodies alone.

A person who has psora can be lazy, dirty, sloppy, eat poorly and
irregually, drink too much beer, smoke too much pot, live off others and is
subject to many excesses. Many sycotic people eat too much rich food and
meat, gain too much weight. and do not exercise because it hurts and makes
them breathless. Some syphilitics tend to drink hard liquors and take
dangerous drugs like heroine because they wish to die. Yes, this is very
true on its own levels but some persons are exposed to unavoidable negative
conditions. Are all the children in Pakistan who are facing a freezing
Himalayan winter with little food or shelter suffering because of their
miasmic desires or because a great collective tragedy beyond their control?
So unhealthy living, poor diet, bad living and working conditions, etc.,
are not always under control of the individual. One must look at each
patient and situation on a case by case basis and make adjustments as
necesarry.

Dear Leela,

Tnx for info , I agree with you idea on repeating the dose but someone may
has another interpretation. I myself have another opinion but for prove it I
need some info and helps and because of this I asked colleagues to tell
their EXPERIENCE regarding whether they have seen any Homeopathic agg in
"Acute Miasms" from "FIST DOSE", unfortunately there was a little responses.
May be Homeopathic agg is very rare in ACUTE MIASMS or our friends do not
want to share their experiences !
I hope colleagues will not deprive me of their experiences.

Kind Regards,
Nader

Hi David,

Thanx a lot for explaining your methodology. I would be pleased if you tell
your opinion in the following questions:
1- Is the Never-been well since syndromes after acute miasms a progressive
state or not?
2-Is there conditions such as flare up of these syndromes or not?

Kind Regards,
Nader

Good questions Nader -

Specifically for the question of "aggravation in acutes" yes I have
seen this many times. Of course I also believe that all human beings
are chronically affected - and there is no pure acute without
underlying chronic- so there it is.

Another question is what would be Chicken pox ( sub-acute?) where
there is a reactivation after so many years and when the virus lies
dormant in nervous tissue.

What happens to the miasm when the patient has already been treated
with specific antibiotics at time of primary infection, This treatment
is definitely different from the allopathic treatment for infections
during hahnemann's time. Does this still go on to become a chronic
miasm after adequate antibiotic treatment? Even if it does, is there
any difference between a chronic miasmatic disease after specific
antibiotics and one that has not been treated? Do both create the same
miasmatic picture of that disease? Or does a potentially chronic
miasm like gonorrhea after specific antibiotic become an acute or
sub-acute?

Also the antibiotic treatment of acute conditions might make them
become more miasmatic ( chronic ) as well. Because sometimes
antibiotics might work as "life savers" and do not allow the acute
disease to kill off the patient as it would have done, instead of
acute it might have added one more layer to the patient's make-up and
created a sub-acute for example even though we can continue arguing
that it is still "acute" because according to Hahnemann a disease is
by "nature" acute or chronic.

Historically amebiasis used to be a short, dysenteric
infection.Medical books around 1930, 1940 speak of it as an acute
dysentery. Now it is a chronic state and I have seen so many patients
in India with chronic amebiasis. THey have a disease picture of
irritable bowel syndrome.

Much as we evolve bacteria and viruses also evolve as decades pass.
Eradication of small pox is as much due to the weakening of virus as
to the vaccination. Hence my question as to how relevant miasmatic
theory and miasmatic medicine classification are to practice in the
way they are now. My take on this is that this whole question needs
revisiting from a medical and practice point of view.

These are states that produce symptoms after a specific acute miasma. For
example, I have treated never-well-since typhoid cases, etc. In these
cases, they experienced symptoms after the infection that they did not have
before the infection.
These NWS cases certainly suffer symptoms after the acute infection.
They may produce longer term complications such a paralysis after
diphtheria, etc. Sometimes, such states activate the chronic miasms and
cause them to flare up.

Dear Nadar,

The above is a hypothetical example on which I will pass. Nevertheless,
if a person's vital force is deranged from the effects of an acute miasma,
and they have never been well since, that derangement has the potential to
increase according to patient, time and circumstances. It also has the
potential to cause a flare up of sympathetic chronic miasms.

Dear David,

Thanks for all info and answers and my last question is:

Do you believe that VF has Memory or not?

Best Regards,
Nader

Dear Nadar,

There seem to be little doubt that the instinctive vital force
carries a record of unresolved symptoms. This is demonstrated every time we
witness the reversal of the chronological order of the symptoms under
treatment elucidated by Hahnemann in the Chronic Diseases in 1828 and
expanded by Hering in his preface of the American edition of the Chronic
Diseases in 1845. That these old symptoms reappear in logical order in many
cases shows an instinctive record that could be called "memory".
