Constitution v MM
Posted: Sun Jan 19, 2003 3:30 pm
Hi Colleagues
I had to smile when the extremes of Puls were being mentioned. This of
course true about almost every remedy in the book. Each one had two (or
more) sides to the coin.
In fact if we use a 50 p coin in UK which has two main sides and 7 sides on
its edges as an example, each one shows a facet of a remedy (see different
types of Sulphur for example). So you have the tidy and also the untidy
Sulph, the mean and generous sulph and so on. (If you look at the various
possible forms of the element sulph in nature, you also see these
variations)
In fact if you consider every remedy in the book, its state in 'reasonable
health' is completely different to when it is in poor health.
Compare the healthy Phos with a sick Phos. It is often difficult to think
that the sick phos has anything to do with the healthy phos.
Our MM rarely differentiate between these states of the patient and they
really put all the possible symptoms into the one pot!
So indeed with remedies such as puls we have the 'pussy cat' and then we
have the manipulative person who can from hell.
The puls patient usually regarded as thirstless and be EXTREMELY thirsty
too. And these extremes of symptoms are demonstrated by the careful
sectional study of the remedies by their symptoms in the repertory.
So our repertorising and judgement about remedies also needs to be
unprejudiced and based on facts. You can never say, oh HE is THIRSTY so he
cannot be Puls. HE too can be puls!
