Can anyone advise where I may be able to get some information regarding the
proving of Diamond and Electricity.
Many thanks

Re: Diamond & Electricity
THE FIRST REMEDY WHICH WE WOULD LIKE TO INTRODUCE IS DIAMOND (ADAMAS).
THE FRIEND OF ALL FEMALES AND MALES!!!!!!!
A lady's true friend – diamond (Adamas)
Diamond is one of the most popular gemstones, yet it has been in use for
a shorter time than any of the other gemstones. This is because the
lapidaries did not learn to fashion diamond until about the 15th Century
when it was found that one diamond would abrade another (Pabian,2000).
Until the beginning of the 18th century the world's diamonds came form
India. Until 1498 Venice was the link between India and Europe, and
Bruges, where many Italian merchants lived, was the diamond cutting
centre (Pryke, 1995).
SOME FACTS ABOUT DIAMOND
Diamond is the ultimate gemstone, having few weaknesses but many
strengths. It is the hardest substance found in nature, it is four times
harder than the next hardest natural mineral, corundum (sapphire and
ruby). However, it is not completely indestructible. Diamond has four
directions of cleavage, meaning that if it receives a blow in one of
these directions it will cleave or split. Apart from this one flaw
diamond has many strengths; it has a broad colour range, high
refraction, high dispersion or fire, very low reactivity to chemicals,
rarity and extreme hardness and durability (Amethyst Galleries:1995).
Diamond is composed of the single element carbon, and it is the
arrangement of the carbon atoms in the lattice that give diamonds its
amazing properties.
Diamond and graphite are both composed of just carbon but their
properties are quite different due to the way the carbon atoms bond
together. Diamond is one of the hardest and strongest minerals whereas
graphite is one of the softest (May).
Did you know?
In the Roman Empire there was a belief that diamonds could neutralise a
magnetic force.
In medieval Italy Legrand states that "the diamond was regarded as the
stone of reconciliation that would unite a husband and wife who had
quarrelled" because for centuries magnetics was considered to be
equivalent to a diamond.
In the West diamonds were worn by military men as symbols of power,
courage and virility.
Diamond's healing power could be released either by holding it in one
hand while making the sign of a cross with the other or by warming it by
pressing it firmly against the body of a sick person.
Some doctors in the Middle Ages believed that diamond powder taken
orally could be curative - with unfortunate consequences for their
patients. Catherine de Medici (1519 –89) is reputed to have used it to
kill her enemies. (Pryke, 1995)
The remedy diamond (adamas)
A proving of adamas was conducted in Aug/Sept of 1969 and was repeated
in 1970 (Sankaran). The provings were somewhat fragmentary and it was
thought that a thorough proving still needed to be carried out. An
outstanding symptom which was found in these provings was headache
associated with sugar, ameliorated by eating. In one prover this symptom
lasted for two years after the proving was over. The most recent and
thorough proving of diamond was done by Jeremy Sherr in 1994. The remedy
for the proving was made by using Diamond dust of 0.2 microns. Sherr
"1997:32) states that "this proving has brought out a great deal more of
the essence of diamond, and it will hopefully heal many that are
infected by our modern social structure". It is very interesting to
observe that in our "social Structure" we as people have begun to lose
our individual vision and direction, and diamond as a remedy from
Sherr's proving has great issues around a lack of clarity and vision.
Some individuals in the proving felt that they were "feeling like a
cloud is lifting, world becoming clearer again and not feeling so
irritable and grumpy" (1997:33). Diamond patients can also be very clear
in their thoughts, which are sharp and less fuzzy. Things seem less
clouded to them and there can be great focus in their lives. Relating
these symptoms to the mineral it is fascinating to find that diamond is
a clear, sharp substance in its pure form.
Through millions of years of pressure and heat upon the diamond
structure we achieve the beautiful substance called diamond. One would
assume that with this slow process over time the diamond character would
be slow in nature, and very patient. And this seems to be true: with
this remedy the person can be very patient. One prover in Sherr's
proving waited patiently in the freezing cold and then sat in a traffic
jam for a couple of hours (1997:38) where they usually would have blown
their top. However, on the flip side they can be very impatient,
intolerant, sharp and critical. The patient can say such things as
"everything was irritating me", "I needed to pick on someone"
(Vermeulen, 1998: 24). In Sherr's proving the provers felt that they
were rushed and some also felt hyperactive. This gives one a sense of
impatience and intolerance.
Some of the characteristics which came through in the proving done by
Jeremy Sherr are clarity, sharpness, hardness, positiveness and the
ability to make a decision. On the other side the diamond patient can
also seem to have feelings of worthlessness, weakness, not being good
enough, not being recognised, and they can feel that their work is not
being perceived by outsiders. This is similar to the substance graphite
which is a weak carbon structure, and can be dark, misty looking in
colour, just like how the weak diamond patient can seem to have a misty,
and cloudy perception of their vision and lack clarity. It is intriguing
how in the presence of a catalyst graphite can be converted into diamond
(Vermeulen, 1998:23) and how when the "worthless, graphite patient" is
given the remedy diamond they can be converted into that clear, strong,
"diamond" individual. This imbalance of power between strength (diamond)
and weakness (graphite) can bee seen in a diamond patient's relationship
with her partner. A diamond wife can live her whole life through her
partner. The wife gives everything for her husband's career: he receives
all the glory, shine and vision and she has nothing. Diamond types can
have this rivalry between dependence and independence, power and
powerlessness (Cara).
A very characteristic symptom which diamond types can experience is a
feeling of sparkling. The patient can feel sparkly, things can look
sparkly. In Sherr's (1997: 35) proving provers "felt sparkly –
definitely not sluggish", "delusion of being a prince, with a turban and
jewel on his Third eye". Sherr (1997: 35) stated that provers also used
a lot of words which one might connect with crystals e.g. clear, cold ,
shining, gem, jewel, incisive, penetrating, sharp.
Another dilemma which diamond types can have is the two/four syndrome!
Just as carbon can make bonds with four other carbons to form the strong
carbon structure, the patient has an affinity to number four. In a Tai
Chi class, while proving the remedy diamond a prover was asked to get
into a pair, but instead formed a foursome which felt more comfortable.
The prover needed to be a four, just as carbon needs to form four bonds
with other carbon atoms (Sherr, 1997:36). In addition, the patient can
have a delusion that he can see four sides, as if four faces. Delusions
such as 'he has two pairs of arms, sensation as if doing the work of
two, feels like doing two things at once all the time' can also be
experienced by diamond patients (Vermeulen, 1998:25).
As a substance diamond does not combine with any other substance and
interestingly the diamond patient can demonstrate an aversion to company
(Vermeulen, 1998:25). In Sherrs proving some provers experienced a
feeling that they wanted to be alone and felt better for being alone.
On the physical and general level the patient can seem to have a dryness
about them, they are thirsty and have an increased thirst, they can have
dryness on all levels - head, nose, face, mouth, throat and skin. They
can experience pain in the throat which is [drying up of throat and pain
in throat which is] drinking, therefore diamond is better for
replenishing fluids in the body. This dryness is understandable as
diamond is formed in very hot, dry conditions, therefore some form of
dryness on the physical level may be expected. A characteristic symptom,
which was stated earlier, was headache and hunger; headache with hunger
ameliorated by eating (Vermeulen, 1998:25).
There can be an urgent desire to pass stool: in the morning has to rush
for stool and while going to sleep gets sudden urging for stool
(Vermeulen, 1998:25). There is an aversion to cream, fats, milk and
white wine and a desire for cheese, coffee, fish, fruit, seafood, smoked
salmon, vegetables and fizzy, sparkly drinks. They can be worse for
alcohol and cold drinks. In Sherrs (1997: 81) proving one prover felt
