Minutus

Gradually I discovered more effective means against this original malady that caused so many complaints; against this malady which may be called by the general name of Psora; i. e., against the internal itch disease with or without its attendant eruption on the skin. It then became manifest to me, through the aid afforded when using these medicines in similar chronic diseases, in which the patient was unable to show a like cause, that also these cases in which the patient remembered no infection of this kind were of necessity caused by a Psora with which he had been infected, perhaps, even in his cradle, or in some other way that had escaped his memory; and this often received corroboration on a more careful inquiry with the parents or aged relatives.

Some regard psora as the original separation from the Divine.

Dr Ghatak's book, Chronic diseases, causes and cure (
translated by Dr P N Bannerjee), just explains this in
a beautiful way. That all diseases, al least psoric
were mental primarily, and physically only
secondarily. Accidentally, I read a book By a
motivational writer from Malaysia Khader Ibrahim, ( In
Tamil Language), the physical steps the yogy undergoes
in his spiritual path. He has taken references from
some ancient texts. The skin lesions breaking out, the
testicles bulging, hemorroids breaking, small tumors
appearing and subsiding, aren't they the exit of the
miasmatic poisons ? If some are interested to know I
will translate the entire text.

Dear Venkat,

Whould u pls elucidate how psora is primarely mental and secoundarly physical???????!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kind Regards,
Nader

Hello,
As I understand from Hahnemann's CD, he has introduced some specific infections as the cause of the chronic diseases. This has no relation to the spiritual or moral problems. Miasms in Hahnemannian term are infections not mental emotional qualities. But many authors have mixed this concept with another theory that relates human diseases to moral and spiritual problems. We have to understand the difference between these viewpoints.
My own understanding is that prior to infection, we have a problem with the related chakra (energy centre) and because of that we develop the susceptibility to that infection. For example when our Mooladhara (the first) chakra catches, we develop the susceptibility to genital and sexual diseases and now if some syphilis germs are present they can easily attack us.

Hope this has helped.

Dear Feras,

Thanks very much for info but it doesn mean that susceptibility to genital and sexual disease is a part of syphilis disease and also chakra problem which cause suceptibility to itch disease is a part of psora disease.When Hahnemnann speak about miasms he means contagious,infectious disease not other things else.
Unfortunately some Homeopaths use miasm in other means such as sin and etc which are nonsense and cause orthodox medicine ridicules Homeopathy.

Kind Regards,

Nader

Dear Venkat

I am very very interested in the translation and would be grateful if you
could do that. If others are not, maybe you can send me the translated text
off list.

To put it very very simply, diseases originate in the mental/emotional
sphere and then solidify into the physical if they are not addressed and
concluded in the mental/emoltional.

Eleana

Hi Eleana,

Certainly this is often true (perhaps even usually?), but I don't feel it's
useful as a blanket assertion unless you want to have your "mental/emotional
sphere" include things such as past lives (in which case it becomes highly
theoretical and will leave some folks standing at the bus stop). But if we
take "mental/emotional sphere" at its usual face value, that explanation
doesn't cover congenital diseases (whether genetic or contracted in utero);
or diseases caused by malnutrition, trauma, poisoning, etc. Many diseases
can have mental symptoms as an *effect*, and the mental symptoms resolve
when the *physical* issue is treated.

For a very current example, if an infant becomes autistic (or otherwise
damaged) from vaccine damage or illness, how can that be said to have
"originate[d] in the mental/emotional sphere"?

Best wishes,
Shannon

Well... to use your example, an infant may become autistic due to trauma...
(birth trauma, vax, injury or illness). One could argue that the vital
force, soul, spirit, qi, (rose by any other name) is so shocked by the
experience, it partly detaches from the body because it does not wish to be
on the earthly plane where there is so much pain and suffering.

The vital force detaching itself, leaves the infant unable to function and
interact fully with his/her environment. One could argue that the
mental/emotional state of the soul is the reason the infant/person is unable
to fully function, which therefore, creates the physical pathology as a
consequence.

Another issue of course is the interaction of the particular person with
his/her environment and family and the possibility that children take on
their parents' stuff through inheritance (inheritance being as much a matter
of genetics as learned behaviour or both)...

Also I suppose the idea of INCARNATING is to do things IN THE BODY, so it's
a bit like a Moebius strip really!
