Hahnemann in the 1st edition of Chronic Disease compared
medicines made from solutions and triturations, and
stated his preference for trituration.
In the same concentration and with the same number of potentizing stages, the trituration-based
medicine proved more powerful. (Dellmour, 1994.)

If the polluted air or pollens in the air are causing your problem, you
can put a cup of water outside for one day and one night and let it collect
whatever is in the air (make sure the water doesn’t evaporate out), and then
make a remedy out of the water. If
you’re sick from something you ate, drop some of it into half a cup of water,
swish it around a few times, and make a remedy out of the water. If you threw the food away, then spit into an
ounce of water, swish it around, then make a remedy out of the water. If you’re sick from the side-effects of a
drug, make a remedy out of the drug. If
you’ve over-dosed on something you’ve smoked, blow some smoke into a
half-filled, small bottle of spring water, shake it up and make a remedy out of
that. If you have a cough and were lucky
enough to have coughed up some mucus, spit what you coughed up into 1 or 2 ounces
of water, swish it around, and then make a remedy out of that to stop your
cough. The list of possibilities is
endless! Remember that whatever
something causes, it can cure in small doses–that’s homeopathy’s motto! So now, if you’re ready, here are the
instructions:
Get a small bottle of spring water (in an emergency any safe water will
do), the exact amount of water or the size of the bottle is not relevant. I
always say a small bottle because small is cheapest (8 ounce bottle, let’s
say).
Pour half the water out.
Now you have half a bottle of water.
Pour in a small amount of what you’re trying to make a remedy of–let’s
say for the sake of argument that you want to make “Homeopathic Pepsi
Cola”–maybe because you drank some Pepsi and it’s making you sick; therefore,
your half-filled water bottle should now consist of a solution of 90% water and
10% Pepsi–there’s no need to be fussy about percentages–just guess at what 10%
might be when you’re adding your Pepsi.
Now it’s time to “Succuss” this solution
(pounding the bottle into your opposite palm).
Succuss means “pound” or “bang”. Do it 40x (see video demonstration
below)
This person is making a water potency of the remedy “Thuja”. What I want you to observe here is how to “succuss” the bottle:
OK, so now, pay attention: Here
is what you’ve done so far:
You’ve bought a small bottle
of spring water, but it could be any brand of bottled water.
You’ve poured half out so that
you’ll be able to “succuss” the bottle.
You’ve poured in a liquid
solution of–this time–Pepsi, so that your half-filled water bottle now consists
of 90% water, 10% Pepsi.
You’ve succussed
the bottle 40x.
Now, here’s what you do next. Get
a piece of paper and write down “Pepsi 1C”–meaning that you now have Pepsi in the
1C potency, this means you’ve done a one-in-ten dilution with 40 succussions and you’ve done it once. (Now, I know, some of you are going to say,
“Elaine, is this really a 1X potency?”
Answer: I don’t know and I don’t
care! It doesn’t matter, OK? What’s important is the number! It’s the first dilution! You can call it whatever you want. We’re not counting drops here, it’s just not necessary,
this remedy, this way of doing it, will work just fine!)
Next step: Pour out 90% of this solution (your 1C)–again, no need to be
fussy about the exact amount, just guess at what 90% might be–and refill half
way with spring water, succuss 40 times, and write
down “2C” or just the number 2 (meaning you’ve now dumped out, refilled, and succussed 40 times, twice).
Now pour out 90% again and refill half way with water again and succuss 40x again and write down the number 3 this
time. Do you get the procedure now? Keep going in this way until you’ve reached
either a 6C, 12C or a 30C depending on what potency you want.
“C” stands for the Roman Numeral “100”, meaning that if we were doing
this with drops like they do in the homeopathic pharmacy, your ratio would be
99 drops of water, 1 drop of “pepsi”. But your average person doesn’t have dropper
bottles at home, and it just isn’t necessary to be that exact when you’re
making a remedy in an emergency.
A 6C would probably have to be taken a lot more frequently as it’s a
lower potency; in a chronic case, two to four times a day, in an acute case,
maybe every half hour; whereas, a 12C would be taken, generally, once a day in
a chronic case, maybe twice; once an hour in an acute case, and a 30C on an
as-needed basis–one dose may be enough depending on what’s wrong with you. As a matter of fact, don’t be surprised if
even one dose of a 6C cures the case.
For that reason, I always say: if there’s a striking improvement after
the first dose, stop dosing! Dose again
if you start to relapse.
Dosing in acute cases is usually needed more frequently. Take less often as you start to feel
better. Always succuss
your bottle roughly 5 times before each dose.
Now label your bottle “Pepsi 6C” and store it in the refrigerator. A sip is a dose. Before each dose, succuss
five times. When the bottle gets low
(when one swallow is left), fill it back up half way with water, succuss 40 times and now you’ll have a 7C; then, resume
dosing as before.
If food has made you sick, and the food is still there, dump some of the
offending food into roughly 2 oz. of water in a disposable cup; swish it
around, then pour the liquid portion of that into your half filled water bottle
and proceed with succussing, dumping out and
refilling as stated above; make a 6C, take a dose, and you should feel
better. Repeat as needed.
If you’re trying to make your remedy from something more solid, like for
example, if you want to antidote the side effects of Penicillin, let’s say; or
let’s say a drug was helping you but you had to stop taking it because of the
side effects but felt that the drug, itself, was helping you in general; well,
here’s what you need to know: the homeopathic remedy made from the drug can be
given for the following reasons–it can be given for what the drug was FOR, it
can be given to antidote the drug, it can
be given to help you ease off an addicting drug and it can be given for
the side effects of the drug.
Just empty one or two capsules of the drug into an ounce of water in a
disposable cup (and if it’s a solid pill, mash it up into a powder with a
mashing implement) and let it
sit in the ounce of water until the water is thoroughly saturated with
this powdery substance. Stir the
substance around a few times, swish it around.
Now empty this solution into your half-filled water bottle of spring
water to get the 90% water, 10% drug ratio that we talked about in making a
remedy out of Pepsi Cola. Now proceed
with “potenization” (succussing,
dumping out, refilling, again and again) until you reach your desired potency,
at least a 6C.
A brief note on dosing in acutes: Let’s say
you’ve made a 6C. In an acute, you may
have to take a dose as often as every 10 or 15 minutes, take it less and less
often as you get better. Always succuss the bottle a few times before dosing. If you should get worse, stop the remedy; an
improvement may follow. If it does,
repeat only as needed.
If you’re making this remedy for a chronic case, figure on three doses a
day, but be prepared to take more or less often, depending on how quickly or
slowly you improve.
HOW TO “PLUS” YOUR BOTTLE
When your remedy bottle is no longer working as well as it used to,
you’ll need to raise the potency. The way to do it is this:
1. Pour out 90% of your bottle.
2. Refill with spring water half way.
3. Succuss (pound the bottle into your
opposite palm) 40 times.
4. Again, for the second time, pour out 90% of the bottle.
5. Refill with water half way.
6. Succuss 40 times.
7. Repeat this process one more time. You will now have raised the
potency by 3 degrees. It should now start working again.
What if you have to make a remedy out of a solid pill?
I already answered that but I’ll say it again. You need to grind or mash this pill up into a
powder. (take two pills if you
want.) It can be done. I’ve done it
using a chopping knife. I could have
used my coffee grinder if I had thought of it.
A mortar and pestle would be the best way but most people don’t have
that in their home, but, you might want to purchase it.
I placed on the balcony a glass of water for a day and night so the
chemicals they were spraying would go into the glass.
Good thinking, Maria! I really
doubt that I would have thought of the air being a source of the problem!
I took this glass, poured it in a bottle of water, leaving room at the
top for succussion (shaking), then I
emptied-refilled, emptied-refilled, 6 times all together, and sucussed
40 times in between as you explain, and he took one sip. The tickling pain in his intestines
immediately vanished!
No way! That’s amazing!
I have kept the bottle and labeled it “Chemtrails 6C” and stored it in the fridge for future use.
God forbid you should ever need to use it again. See, it’s like Robin Murphy always says, “Etiology over-rules symptomatology!” (The etiology in
this case being chemicals
in the air.) And what’s our
motto? “Whatever something can cause, it
can cure in small doses.” And that’s
exactly what you just proved! But you
know what? Don’t be surprised if the
exact same remedy doesn’t work again if they change the formula that they’re
spraying!
Some people don’t believe in chemtrails. The point is, the antidote worked!
Robin Murphy also says, “We have to learn to become ‘antidoters’.”
Probably Alan will not publish this in the enzine
since chemtrails is a sensitive subject.
Eigen Erfahrung:
Ich
bin 4x geimpft vor Corona. Nach 4te mal kann ich nichts mehr lesen.
Ich empfinde einen Druck unter Vertex.
Eine Corona Potenz gibt es nicht,, darum bitte ich eine
Bekannte nach Ihre Impfung mir die leere Spritze ohne Nadel mit zu bringen.
Die leere Spritze ohne Nadel spüle ich mit Alkohol aus und träufele
das auf Globuli. Es nimmt den Druck. Der Druck kommt
mehrmals wieder ich nehme dann wieder
meine selbst hergestellte Corona Potenz. Das wirkt immer
wieder.
Elaine shows us how to make our own remedies when we don’t have access
to regular ones or regular ones don’t address the problem.
What’s the value of knowing this?
It’s immense! If you’re sick from
vacationing in Mexico (famous for giving tourists diarrhea),
you can make a remedy out of the local water–no offense to our lovely Mexican
readers! (And here they are now!)
How To Make Your Own Remedy 1
If the polluted air or pollens in the air are causing your problem, you
can put a cup of water outside for a day and night or longer and let it collect
whatever is in the air
(make sure the water doesn’t evaporate out), and then make a remedy out
of the water. (I’m going to explain how
to do this.) If you’re sick from
something you ate, drop some of it into half a cup of water, swish it around a
few times, and make a remedy out of the water.
If you threw the food away, then spit into an ounce of water, swish
it around, then make a remedy out of the water. If you’re sick from the side-effects of a
drug, make a remedy out of the drug. If
you’ve over-dosed on something you’ve smoked, blow some smoke into a
half-filled, small bottle of spring water, shake it up and make a remedy out of
that. If you have a cough and were lucky
enough to have coughed up some mucus, spit what you coughed up into 1 or 2
ounces of water, swish it around, and then make a remedy out of that to stop
your cough. If you got a rash from
pulling weeds out of the garden, mash up one of the weeds, soak it in water,
then make a remedy out of the water.
The list of possibilities is endless!
Remember that whatever something causes, it can cure in small
doses–that’s homeopathy’s motto! So now,
if you’re ready, here are the instructions I promised:
Get a small bottle of spring water
How To Make Your Own Remedy 2 (in an emergency any safe water will do),
the exact amount of water or the size of the bottle is not relevant. I always
say a small bottle because small is cheapest.
So, an 8 ounce bottle, let’s say.
Pour half the water out (but save the water.
Now you have half a bottle of water.
Pour in a small amount of what you’re trying to make a remedy of–let’s
say for the sake of argument that you want to make “Homeopathic Pepsi Cola”–
maybe because you drank some Pepsi and now you don’t feel well; therefore, your
half-filled water bottle should now consist of a solution of 90% water and 10%
Pepsi–there’s no need to be fussy about your percentages–just guess at what 10%
might be when you’re adding your Pepsi.
Now it’s time to “Succuss” this solution
(pounding the bottle into your opposite palm).
Succuss means “pound” or “bang”. Do it 40 times (see video demonstration
below) This person is making a water
potency of the remedy “Thuja”. What I want you to observe here is how to “succuss” the bottle:
You’ve bought a small bottle
of spring water, like Evian, for example; but it could be any brand of bottled
water.
You’ve poured half out so that
you’ll be able to “succuss” the bottle.
You’ve poured in a liquid
solution of–this time–Pepsi, so that your half-filled water bottle now consists
of 90% water, 10% Pepsi.
You’ve succussed
the bottle 40 times.
Now, here’s what you do next. Get
a piece of paper and write down “Pepsi 1C”–meaning that you now have Pepsi in
the 1C potency, this means you’ve done a one-in-ten dilution with 40 succussions and you’ve done it once. (Now, I know, some of you are going to say,
“Elaine, isn’t this really a 1X potency?”
Answer: I don’t know and
I don’t care! It doesn’t matter,
OK? What’s important is the number! It’s the first dilution! You can call it whatever you want. We’re not counting drops here, it’s just not
necessary, this remedy, this way of doing it, will work just fine!)
Now, next step: Pour out 90% of this solution (your 1C)–again, no need
to be fussy about the exact amount, just guess at what 90% might be (you can
think of it as leaving one swallow at the bottom)–and refill half way with
spring water, succuss 40 times, and write down “2C”
or just the number 2 (meaning you’ve now dumped out, refilled,
and succussed 40 times, twice). Now pour out 90% again and refill half way
with water again and succuss 40 times again and write
down the number 3 this time.
Do you get the procedure now?
Keep going in this way until you’ve reached either a 6C, 12C or a 30C
depending on what potency you want.
“C” stands for the Roman Numeral “100”, meaning that if we were doing
this with drops like they do in the homeopathic pharmacy, your ratio would be

most people don’t have that in
their home, but, you might want to purchase it.
Good luck!!!!! OK, so let me just
summarize. This method doesn’t replace
Homeopathy as we know it. If this were
all there was to it, no one would ever have to go to Homeopathy School and
study for years; and no one would have to buy an Emergency Kit of 50 remedies
to have with them at all times.
This method works when you know what made you sick, and especially when
there are no “mentals” to prescribe on! If you know, for example, that you suffer
from a
side-effect of a drug, that drug “in potency” is the best remedy for your
situation! If you know that toxic fumes
in your workplace are making you sick, making a remedy
out of the fumes should be your first thought!
But when it’s not clear what caused your illness, when there’s no direct
cause-and-effect situation that you can point to, then seeing a homeopath and
having your case
taken is a better choice than trying to make random remedies out of
random things.
[David Little]
Making a Medicinal Solution
In the 6th Organon Hahnemann
mentions making an aqueous solution of the LM potency in 40, 30, 20, 15, or 8
tablespoons of water. The amount of solution most commonly used by Hahnemann
was 7 to 8 tablespoons of water (around 31/2 to 4 oz. of fluid)
including a sufficient amount of pure alcohol or brandy as a preservative.
We have found it necessary to add 2 or more oz. of brandy to the
solution if it is needed over a long period of time. For patients with more
sensitive constitutions the medicinal action can be attenuated by increasing
the amount of water in the medicinal solution. This is when the remedy solution
may be made with 12, 15, 20, or more tablespoons of pure water depending on the
sensitivity of the patient.
1st Hypersensitive persons respond better to a medicinal
solution made with a larger quantity of water and the single dose or infrequent
repetitions of the remedy. The homoeopathic pellets are viewed as quantum
forces that can impregnate large amounts of water with their medicinal energy.
With the medicinal solution we use the smallest amount of medicine possible,
i.e. one poppy seed size pill. Once in a great while the homeopath may need two
pills in a remedy solution to treat a patient with a hyposensitive
constitution. The size of the dose is directly linked to the phenomena of the
homoeopathic aggravation just as much as the potency. A fundamental reason for
using the medicinal solution is to make it easier to adjust the dose of the
remedy to fit the sensitivity of the constitution.
The 2nd aspect of adjusting the dose is the number of succussions given to the remedy just prior to ingestion.
The succussion of the aqueous alcoholic solution
against a glass surface of a bottle produces large amounts of kinetic energy
and frictional electricity.
This raises the potency of the remedy solution in a manner that is
impossible when using a dry dose. This dynamic alteration of the solution by succussions changes the remedy level so that the vital
force is always offered something new. The power of the medicinal solution
depends on three factors, the number of pills used, the amount of water in the
solution, and the number of succussions given before
ingestion. The number of succussions is directly
linked to the dynamic effect of the remedy at the time of ingestion.
In aphorism 248 Hahnemann mentions 8, 10 or 12 as the number of succussion given to the solution prior to ingestion. We
have found over the years that the succussions are
one of the most dynamic aspects of the “new method”.
In hypersensitive cases the number of succussions
should be lowered to 1, 2 or 3, if necessary. In the ultra hypersensitive
constitutions we have used as little as 1 succussion
at times. The average sensitivity utilizes anywhere between 4, 5, 6 and 7 succussions very well.
Those constitutions that are somewhat hyposensitive may need as many as
8, 9, 10, 12 or more succussions to react well. We
have found in cases where a remedy seems to no longer hold, that an increase of
the number of succussions will start the case moving
forward again.
This aspect of adjusting the dose allows for the fine turning of the
medicinal powers so that it is harmonious to a wide variety of constitutions
and situations.
A Case History
An individual suffering from Myasthenia gravis consulted me after seeing
the best allopathic specialists. This disease is characterized by muscular
weakness which especially affects the ocular and bulbar muscles as well as
other muscles. This person was manifesting the ocular symptoms of the disease
quite strongly.
He suffered with great ptosis (drooping of the
eye lids) and paralysis of the muscles that move the eyes. There was also a
certain amount of diplopia (double vision). This
gentleman could not look upward and he had to lean his head back to be able to
see straight ahead. His condition was getting worse, especially when he was
under stress and strain.
After I took his symptoms I decided on Causticum
as it appeared to resemble his case and it is keynoted for slow paralysis. As
he seemed rather sensitive I began the case with a 6 oz. solution of the LM 0/1
potency and advised him to succuss the remedy 2 times
before ingestion.
From this bottle 1 teaspoon was then stirred into 6 oz. of water in a
dilution glass. This first dose had an immediate effect that lasted for 4 days.
During this period he could see very well and his eyelids no longer drooped. On
the 5th day his symptoms began to relapse so he was advised to take
the remedy every 4th day.
As the case progressed I tried to adjust the dose in an upward direction
by increasing the number of succussions to 3 to see
if the remedy would hold for a longer period of time. This caused him to see
double for 24 hours and his eyes became puffy.
After a few days the aggravation wore off and he improved for around 4
days before the remedy effect seemed to start wearing off. I returned to 2 succussions as 3 produced an aggravation without causing
any increase in the length of the amelioration. Over time he has found that if
he succussed the bottle too hard it makes his eyes a
bit puffy for a day or two after he takes his dose.
We also found through experimentation that 1 succussion
did not produce much of an effect on his eyes. This individual’s sensitivity is
such that 1 succussion is too little, 2 succussions are just right, and 3 succussions
are too much. This refined adjustment of the medicinal solution is necessary
for his case to progress in a rapid and gentle fashion.
Over a period of time I have carefully raised the potency from LM 0/1 to
LM 0/2 in such a manner that he has not been aggravated and has continued to
improve. Such a gentle transition would be impossible with the dry dose of a
centesimal potency raised from 30c to 200c or 1m. I hate to think of what a
random number of pills of a high potency centesimal dropped under his tongue
would do to him!

Methodik
Für die Verschreibung eines homöopathischen Medikamentes ist nach den Regeln der Homöopathie die Ähnlichkeit zwischen Krankheitsbild und dem Arzneimittelbild maßgebend. Ähnlichkeit bezeichnet die Übereinstimmung im Wesen, die anhand von charakteristischen, eigenheitlichen und besonderen Symptomen gefunden wird.
In homöopathischen Kreisen wird zwar immer wieder darüber gestritten, ob das Arzneimittelbild neben der Symptomenreihe seine Berechtigung habe und vor allem, ob das Arzneimittelbild „hahnemannkonform“ sei oder nicht. Er selber spricht zwar im Organon öfters von Krankheitsbildern und dem Aufsuchen von ähnlichen Gegenbildern in der Materia medica, nie aber explizit von Arzneimittelbildern. Wie auch immer Hahnemanns Auffassung darüber gewesen sein mag, wer den Begriff “Ähnlichkeit” ernst nimmt und zwischen “ähnlich” und “gleich” so wie auch zwischen “Bild” und “Abbild” zu unterscheiden weiß, der wird einsehen, dass die Homöopathie nicht ohne Arzneimittelbilder ausgeübt werden kann. Unbestritten bleibt meist auch, dass die Homöopathie einer phänomenologischen Betrachtungsweise entspricht.
So hat die Einsicht, dass eine Ähnlichkeit nur zwischen Bildern gefunden werden kann, immer wieder Homöopathen dazu motiviert, die gegebenen Symptomenreihen zu einem allgemein gültigen Bild zu beleben.
Die meisten zeitgenössischen HomöopathInnen arbeiten mit sog. „Essenzen“, die das Wesen der Arznei zu beschreiben versuchen. Für die phänomenologische Betrachtung ist die philosophische Frage, ob einer Substanz ein Wesen zukommt, d.h. ob sie Bedeutung und Sinn hat, müßig, denn hier gibt es erkenntnistheoretisch keine vom Subjekt unabhängige objektive Welt. Diese entsteht
allein im Bewusstsein des erkennenden Subjekts, das stets intentional ist, d.h. auf einen äußeren oder inneren Gegenstand ausgerichtet ist. Wir können die Dinge gar nicht erkennen, ohne ihnen eine Bedeutung, einen Sinn zu geben.
Gespräche unter dem Eichenbaum am Seminarort
So suchen die meisten Autoren aus der Fülle der Symptome die -von ihrer Sicht aus- “auffälligsten, sonderlichsten, usw.” Symptome auf, um von diesem Standpunkte aus, die übrigen darum herum in Themen zu ordnen und zu interpretieren. Dabei ergibt sich meist ein einleuchtendes Bild, sofern man gewillt ist, den Standpunkt des Autors einzunehmen. Doch nur schon die Bildung von Themen ist ein heikler Versuch, im Chaos der Symptome Ordnung zu schaffen, denn das Ordnen setzt eigentlich schon die Übersicht voraus, durch die dieses Ordnen eben erst ermöglicht werden sollte. Hier besteht die große Versuchung, dass der Mensch sich gerne auf unbewusste Themen stützt, die ihm nahe stehen (“Lieblingsthemen”). So findet jeder Autor seine eigenen Themen wieder, auf denen er sein Gedankengebäude aufbauen kann.
Die Feststellung, dass von ein und derselben Substanz viele, oft sehr verschiedene Arzneimittelbilder entworfen werden können, sollte jedoch eine Aufforderung sein, die Methodik zu hinterfragen, denn ein eindeutiges und allgemein gültiges Bild darf nicht vom Standpunkt eines Autors abhängen, sondern einzig von der Substanz selber. Es muss also eine Methode gefordert werden, die die Symptomenreihe eines Arzneimittels nach der Wirklichkeit der Substanz ordnet.
Die Arzneimittelbild-Forschung, die vom argentinischen Homöopathen Dr. Alfonso Masi-Elizalde entwickelt wurde, war eine Antwort auf diese unbefriedigende Situation. Masi bezeichnete die heutige Homöopathie als ein „nouveau-né“, ein Neugeborenes: Die Methode steckt noch in den Anfängen. Wir kennen zu wenige Arzneien ihrem genauen Wesen nach. Masi beschäftigte sich auch mit weniger bekannten Mitteln (Oligochresten) und entwickelte eine wissenschaftliche Methode, um -jenseits tradierter Arzneimittelbilder und Essenzen- zu einem neuen Verständnis des Wesens der erforschten Arzneien zu gelangen.
Die wichtigsten Elemente dieser Methode sind: Rückkehr zu den Quellen (Wortlaut der Arzneimittelprüfungssymptome), Themenbildung abgeleitet aus der Gesamtheit aller Prüfungssymptome, Bezug von Symbolik, Wissen über die Substanz, Linguistik usw., Essenzbildung mittels der scholastischen Philosophie des Thomas von Aquin und der Theorie der Primärpsora, die auf der Idee eines spirituellen Mangels beruht.
Seminarteilnehmer / Kalium carb. / Febr. 2007
Die frühere Zürcher Masi-Gruppe, die sich neu „Interessengemeinschaft Homöopathie und Geisteswissenschaftlich erweiterte Hausarztmedizin“ nannte, wandelte die Methodik von Masi in zwei Punkten ab:
Die spekulative Hypothese von der Primärpsora wurde aufgegeben. Es war wenig plausibel, dass die Arzneien ihre Heilwirkung basierend auf einem spirituellen Defizit entfalten sollen. Von nun an betrachtete die Gruppe das Bild jeder Arznei als ein in sich vollkommenes Wesen. Wir versuchten von den negativ gefärbten Beschreibungen, wie sie in tradierten Arzneimittellehren nachzulesen sind, wegzukommen und positive Formulierungen zu finden. Zudem zeigte es sich, dass eine Methode, bei der die Betrachtung und das Erleben der Substanz in der Gruppe ins Zentrum gerückt wird, den Zugang zu den erforschten Arzneien öffnete, auch dort, wo dieser früher verschlossen geblieben war.
Im September 2006 veranstaltete die IG ein Theorie- und Methodik-Seminar in der Toscana. Das Ziel dieses Seminars war es, Klarheit über methodologische Probleme zu schaffen und die Ausformulierung der Methode zu realisieren. Dabei erkannten wir, dass die Methode, die wir ohne methodologisch-philosophische Reflexion in den Seminarien von 1997 bis 2006 entwickelt haben, in der phänomenologischen Philosophie exakt beschrieben wird.
Phänomenologie lässt sich kurz wie folgt zusammenfassen:
Es ist der Versuch, Zugang zu einer Sache zu bekommen,
– indem die Forschenden vom unmittelbar Gegebenen (Erscheinenden) ausgehen
– ihre Subjektivität mit einbeziehen
– sich Vorurteilen vor enthalten
– die imaginative Variation anwenden (Beobachtung auf verschiedenen Ebenen und aus verschiedener Perspektive)
– das Wesen einer Sache beschreiben oder erklären.
Die Erfahrungen aus unserer langjährigen Arzneimittelforschung zeigen, dass eine Substanz sich auf drei verschiedenen Ebenen ausdrücken kann: auf der Ebene der Substanz, auf der Ebene der Wirkung auf den Menschen und auf der Ebene der Symbolik und anderen Überlieferungen. Die dabei wahrnehmbaren Erscheinungen dieser drei Ebenen sind untereinander kohärent, entziehen sich aber jeder causalen Erklärung. Die in unserer Arbeit verwendeten Ebenen sind folgende: die Ebene der Substanz (chemische und physikalische Eigenschaften, Botanik, Zoologie); die Ebene der Arzneimittelprüfungen (Symptome beim Menschen); die Ebene des geisteswissenschaftlichen Materiales (Synonyma, Etymologie, Mythen und Geschichten). Man vergleiche dazu den Anhang über das praktische Vorgehen bei der Arzneimittelforschung.
Die Wichtigkeit der Betrachtung der drei Ebenen wird u.a. durch die nachfolgenden Gedanken zur Bedeutung der Symptome erklärt. Die Symptome einer Arzneimittelprüfung sind Reaktionen der menschlichen Lebenskraft, die offensichtlich nicht nur in verschiedenen Bereichen wirkt (z.B. Wachstum, Fortpflanzung, Gefühlsbildung u.a.), sondern zusätzlich auch individuell verschieden reagieren kann (mit Tumorbildung oder Entzündung, Destruktion, Depression, Aggression usw.), so dass ein bestimmter Reiz auf die Lebenskraft eine unüberblickbare Fülle von verschiedenen Symptomen der menschlichen Pathologie bewirken kann und umgekehrt ein bestimmtes Symptom von den unterschiedlichsten Substanzen erzeugt werden kann. Der Schluss ist nahe liegend, dass die Ordnung nicht in den Symptomen gefunden werden kann und dass die Symptome eigentlich nur interpretiert und eingeordnet werden können, wenn das Wesen der Arznei bereits erkannt wurde.
Ein weiteres Problem der Symptome liegt darin, dass Symptome meist nur eine Pathologie ausdrücken. Die philosophische Erkenntnis, dass das Böse (Pathologie) lediglich ein Mangel an Gutem (Gesundheit) ist, macht deutlich, dass die Pathologie allein nicht geeignet ist, das Wesen einer Arznei zu beschreiben. Das Arzneimittelbild muss vielmehr als Teilaspekt der Gesundheit verstanden werden können, so wie die Substanz selber ja auch ein „Sein“ und nicht ein „Mangel“ auf Erden ist.
Zur Überwindung dieser eben geschilderten Schwierigkeiten haben sich während unserer Arbeit folgende methodische Ansätze bewährt, die im Wesentlichen den Forderungen der phänomenologischen Forschung entsprechen.
1. Die Erscheinungen einer Substanz auf den drei Ebenen werden als gleichwertige Informationen betrachtet und gleichzeitig betrachtet.
2. Das Ordnen der gesammelten Symptome, Signaturen und Überlieferungen zu Themen muss als Gruppenprozess durchgeführt werden. Dadurch kann die Ebene des subjektiven Erlebens multipliziert werden, was zusätzliche Schnittstellen der Variation ergibt.
Die Zusammenarbeit in der Gruppe von mehreren Menschen hat sich bei der Erforschung eines Arzneimittels in vielen Beziehungen als besonders fruchtbar erwiesen. Die Gemeinschaft hat ihrem Wesen nach die Möglichkeit, individuelle Lieblingsthemen, Anschauungen und Meinungen (blinder Fleck) zu hinterfragen und nötigenfalls immer wieder aufzulösen. Die erneute Formulierung muss dann allerdings wieder vom einzelnen Menschen vorgenommen werden, so dass in der Gruppe ein Gleichgewicht der Gemeinschaft und Individualität angestrebt werden muss.
Die Gruppenarbeit hat zudem deutlich gemacht, dass es in der Forschung unabdingbar ist, sich auf klar definierte Grundlagen beziehen zu können. Dazu gehören nicht nur die Definitionen der Begriffe, sondern auch die eines Menschen- und Weltbildes. Die Erkenntnis, dass die Symptome nicht nur in sich auf körperlicher, seelischer und geistiger Ebene beim Menschen, sondern auch mit den Signaturen (der Minerale, Pflanzen und Tiere) in der Natur kohärent sind, legt ein Welt- und Menschenbild nahe, in dem die Substanz ein Teil des Menschen darstellt. So haben die bisher erforschten Arzneimittel immer einen ganz bestimmten Aspekt des menschlichen Daseins dargestellt, eine Voraussetzung, die beim Menschen erfüllt sein muss. Die Substanz selber verkörpert diesen Aspekt in vollkommener Art und Weise; der kranke Mensch drückt ihn als Gesundheit oder als Pathologie aus.
3. Das intuitive Denken erhält neben dem kausal-analytischen Denken gleichwertigen Raum. Abhängig vom Wesen eines Bildes und im Unterschied zum Gegenstand erfolgt das Erkennen des Arzneimittelbildes nicht linear entlang der gefundenen Fakten, sondern ist geprägt von einem stetigen Wechsel zwischen Erfassen und Auflösen, einem Ausformulieren und Verwerfen des angestrebten Bildes. Auch hier hält die Gruppe von verschiedenen Menschen den Prozess in Gang. Für das Verständnis dieses Prozesses kann auf die Monographie über das Kochsalz (Natrium muriaticum) verwiesen werden, denn es entspricht dem “solve et coagula”, dem fortschreitenden Prozess von Auflösen und Ordnen. Hier zeigt sich auch deutlich das Grundproblem jedes konkreten Festhaltens und Ausformulierens eines Wesenhaften: Der Begriff ist beschränkt und entspricht nur der halben Wahrheit, jedoch ohne Begriff kann das Wesen nicht erfasst und vermittelt werden.
Das Wesen kann nicht in einem gemeinsamen, auf einem Gruppenkonsens beruhenden Text beschrieben werden, weil es auf dem intentionalen Bewusstseinsakt eines jeden einzelnen Subjektes basiert. Worüber jedoch sinnvollerweise ein Konsens erzielt wird, sind die Themengruppen. Sie legen ein grobes Rohmuster, von dem aus die einzelnen Forschenden ihre individuelle Wesensbeschreibung herleiten können. Aus diesen Gründen wird auf eine zusammenfassende Ausformulierung des Wesens innerhalb der Gruppe verzichtet und die einzelnen Berichte nebeneinander stehen gelassen.

Trituration:
To make the first decimal trituration, weight
out 900 grains of Sugar of Milk, that is we weight out 3x 300 grains. Then we
weigh out 100 grains of the crude substance. Of the sugar we take 300
grains,…add the 100 grains of the drug and triturate until it is a well mixed
mass. It is well not to cease before half an hour has passed. After an
apparently homogeneous mass has been produced, we add the other 300 grains, and
continue the trituration for not less than twenty
minutes, rotating the mortar and occasionally scraping together. Now we add the
last 300 grains, triturate in the same way, and the first trituration
is done.
[From a forum]
Sheetrock (= Gipsplatte) Take a piece of
sheetrock (remove the paper). Just a ¼th tea spoon (about ½ gram or 1/10)
Dissolve it in 1 liter water, in a 2 liter, plastic bottle (clean coke bottle would be fine).
Shake vigorously and bang the bottle several times.
This gives you 3C or 6x potency. To make 6C drain out the bottle, and
without washing it add 1 liter water. Just one drop
hanging inside would be the base for next stage. Make sure to shake and bang
the bottle.
[Elaine Lewis]
What’s the value of knowing this? It’s immense! If you’re sick from
vacationing in Mexico, you can make a remedy out of the pathogen-infested local
water.
If the polluted air or pollens in the air are causing your problem, you
can put a cup or saucer of water outside for a few hours or days and let it
collect whatever is in the air (make sure the water doesn’t evaporate out), and
then make a remedy out of what you’ve collected. The list of possibilities is
endless. So now, if you’re ready, here
are the directions:
Get a small bottle of spring water (in an emergency any safe water will
do), the exact amount of water or the size of the bottle is not relevant. I
always say a small bottle because small is therefore, your water bottle should
now consist of a solution of 90% water and 10% Pepsi (no need to be fussy about
percentages) just guess at what 10% might be cheapest. So, an 8 ounce or 12
ounce bottle, let’s say.
Pour half the water out (but save the water, don’t pour it down the
drain; after all, you paid for it).
Now you have half a bottle of water. Pour in a small amount of what
you’re trying to make a remedy of, let’s say for the sake of argument that you
want to make “Homeopathic Pepsi Cola”;
“Succuss” this solution (pound the bottle into
your opposite palm) 40x and after having done that, get a piece of paper and
write down “Pepsi 1X” [meaning that you now have your Pepsi potenz
in the 1X potency, this means you’ve done a one-in-ten dilution with 40 succussions and you’ve done it once. (Now, I know, some of you are going to say,
“Elaine, is this a 1X or a 1C?”
Answer: I don’t know! What’s important is the number! The first dilution! You can call it what you want, X or C, I
don’t care. We’re not counting drops
here, it’s just not necessary, this remedy, this way of doing it, will work
just fine!)
Now pour out 90% of this solution (again, no need to be fussy) and
refill half way with spring or distilled water, succuss
40x, and write down “2X” (meaning you’ve now dumped out, refilled,
and succussed 40x, twice).
Now pour out 90% again and refill half way with water and succus 40x again and write down “3X” this time. Keep doing
this until you’ve reached either a 6X, a 12X or a 30X–depending on
what potency you want. A 6X would have to be taken more often as it’s a
lower potency; in a chronic case, 2 – 4 x daily, in an acute case, maybe every
half hour; whereas, a 12X would be taken
once or twice a day in a chronic case, once an hour in an acute case and
a 30X on an as-needed basis – one dose may be enough depending on what’s wrong
with you.
Dosing in acute cases has to be more frequent. Take less often as you
start to feel better. Always succuss your bottle a few times before each dose.
Now label your bottle (Pepsi 6X) and store it in the refrigerator. A sip
is a dose. Before each dose, succuss a few times, as
I just said; maybe five times. When the bottle gets low (when 90% is gone),
fill it back up half way with water, succuss 40 times
and now you’ll have a 7X; then, resume as before.
If food has made you sick, and the food is still there, dump some of the
offending food into an ounce of water in a disposable cup; stir it around,
swish it around, then pour the liquid portion of that into your half filled
water bottle and proceed with succussing, dumping out
and refilling as above.
If you’re trying to make your remedy from something more solid, like for
example, if you want to antidote the side effects of a medicine you’re on, like
Penicillin, let’s say…empty a penicillin capsule into an ounce of water in a
disposable cup (and if it’s a solid pill, mash it up with a hammer or similar
mashing tool) – and let it sit in the ounce of water until the water is
thoroughly saturated with this powdery substance. Stir the substance a few
times, swish it around. Now empty this solution into your half-filled water
bottle to get the 90% water, 10% penicillin ratio that we talked about before.
Now proceed with “potenization”, the process
described above, for making a remedy out of Pepsi; namely, succussing
40x, dumping 90% out, refilling half way, succussing
again, and so on.
A brief note on dosing in acutes: Let’s say
you’ve made a 6X. In an acute, you may have to take a swallow as often as every
10 or 15 minutes in a severe situation, take it less and less often as you get
better. Always succuss the bottle before dosing. If
you should get worse, stop the remedy; an improvement may follow. If it does,
repeat only as needed.
If you’re making this remedy for a chronic case, figure on three times a
day, but be prepared to take more or less often, depending on how quickly or
slowly you improve.
When
your remedy bottle is no longer working, you’ll need to raise the potency. The
way to do it is this:
1. Pour out 90% of your bottle.
2. Refill with bottled water half way.
3. Succuss (pound the bottle into your
opposite palm) 40 times.
4. Again, for the second time, pour out 90% of the bottle.
5. Refill with water half way.
6. Succuss 40 times.
7. Repeat one more time. You will now have raised the potency by 3
steps. It should now start working again. (or you need another remedy!)
Editor’s Note: Readers are advised not to start making remedies from
everything listed in Paragraph 1. The procedure given in this article should be
used only under special conditions when an indicated remedy is not available,
you’re away from home, and also after consulting with your homeopath if
possible.

Elaine Lewis
Kimberly, you certainly don’t
have to put the remedy in the refrigerator if you don’t want to. I always say
to do that because it keeps the remedy out of the light; but, if my own example
means anything, I have remedies in my refrigerator right now and they
absolutely work. I have Ferrum Phos
200C in the refrigerator, which I take always at the first sign of a cold, and
it has not failed me yet. In fact, I have had my remedies go through that x-ray
counter at the airport and they still worked.
I feel fortunate after reading
this great article, because I was just looking after meaning of a word ‘succuss’. A nice help to everyone interested is extended
through this article. One thing I would like to submit is that medicine after
preparation may spoil in due course of time if not kept in refrigerator. There
are countries where people can not afford refrigerator or if they can, they do
not get whole day power supply. I propose if approved by Elaine Lewis to put
some drops of pure ethyl alcohol. This is the stuff that is used by medicine
companies in preparing medicines.
Fluxionspotenzen Quelle: Remedia.at
Zur Zeit der stürmischen Entwicklung der Industriellen Revolution, 1850 bis 1920, fand sich in Nordamerika eine Gruppe von Homöopathen, die Hochpotenzen mit Hilfe von Potenziermaschinen herstellten. Obwohl die arzneiliche Kraft dieser Mittel unbestritten ist, gerieten deren Herstellungsmethoden großteils in Vergessenheit, das hier genannte Prinzip der kontinuierlichen Fluxionsdynamisierung wird heutzutage nur von südamerikanischen Herstellern in größerem Ausmaß angewandt. Die fast ein Jahrhundert zurückreichenden Erfahrungen namhafter Autoren mit diesen Arzneien haben gezeigt, daß sie auch für den europäischen Homöopathen eine echte Alternative zu den hier erhältlichen, diskontinuierlichen Hochpotenzen darstellen können.
Definition
Die Bezeichnung Fluxion stammt aus dem englischen Sprachgebrauch und bedeutet so viel wie fließen. Das Prinzip dieser Potenziermethode beruht auf der Beobachtung, daß Turbulenzen in einer Flüssigkeit einen Dynamisierungseffekt haben.
Diese Beobachtung ist schon fast so alt wie die Homöopathie selbst.
B. Fincke: machte um die Jahrhundertwende bei Versuchen, Potenziermaschinen zur Vereinfachung der Hochpotenzherstellung zu konstruieren.
Der Vorgang der Dynamisierung, also das Schütteln oder Rühren nach dem vorausgehenden Verdünnen, stellt prinzipiell eine Zufuhr von mechanischer Energie in das System Arznei -Arzneiträger dar. Ein Ansatz zum Verständnis der Wirkungsweise von Homöopathica wäre die Hypothese, daß sich die molekularen Eigenschaften des Arzneimoleküls auf das Lösungsmittel übertragen, daß also Information auf den Trägerstoff übergeht.
Dunham: zeigte, daß besonders kraftvolle Arzneien erhalten werden, wenn man die Schlagkraft einer schweren Ölmühle zum Potenzieren verwendet. Er band 120 Gläser am Schlagbalken der Mühle fest und versetzte ihnen bei jedem Schritt 125 Schläge mit großer Wucht. Er stellte auf diese Weise Hochpotenzen nach der Einglasmethoder her.
E. Nash: machte bei der Herstellung seiner Arzneien Gebrauch von einem selbstregulierenden Potenziergerät. (13, 30)
Zahlreiche Versuche dieser Art haben gezeigt, daß für die Herstellung einer kraftvoll wirkenden Arznei nicht unbedingt die mechanische Energie einer Herstellperson notwendig ist, sondern
daß die Arzneien auch durch Maschinen, sogenannte Dynamisatoren, entstehen können.
Man unterscheidet zwei Arten der Fluxionspotenzierung, beiden gemeinsam ist das Prinzip der Einglaspotenzierung:
1. Die kontinuierliche Methode, bei der in das Dynamisiergefäß fortwährend Flüssigkeit zugeführt und gleichzeitig durch eine Ablaufvorrichtung entfernt wird. Die Potenzstufen werden
aus dem zugeführten Volumen des Verdünnungsmediums errechnet, sie lassen sich rein rechnerisch nicht mit denen der C- oder D-Reihe vergleichen.
B. Fincke, S. Swan, J.T. Kent, und H.C. Allen arbeiteten nach diesem Prinzip.
2. Die diskontinuierliche Methode, bei der ein Arzneiglas mit Dilutionsflüssigkeit wiederholt befüllt und entleert wird, was also ein automatisiertes Korsakovpotenzieren darstellt.
Nach diesem Prinzip arbeiteten S.P. Burdick, Th. Skinner und J.Jarricot. Die Apparatur nach Skinner wurde bis vor kurzem von Boericke und Tafel zur Herstellung von
Skinner-Hochpotenzen eingesetzt, welche in den USA die größte Verbreitung unter derartigen Arzneien gefunden haben.
Verfahren nach B. Fincke:
Einer der Pioniere der kontinuierlichen Methode war Bernhardt Fincke, der durch Boenninghausen zur Homöopathie gebracht wurde. Er wanderte 1852 nach USA aus, wo er an der Universität von New York sein Medizinstudium absolvierte. Er machte zahlreiche Versuche zur Herstellung von Hochpotenzen. Sein Werk "On High Potencies" wurde 1865 von A.J. Tafel in Philadelphia veröffentlicht und beschreibt Erkrankungen von Personen, die durch Hochpotenzen geheilt wurden.
Zunächst ging Fincke von einer handpotenzierten C30 aus. Bis zur C30 dynamisierte er in der Korsakovweise, wobei er jede Stufe 180x im Dactylus-Rhythmus schüttelte [Daktylus: betont - unbetont - unbetont. Charakter der Verse bewegt, Tanzlieder im Dreivierteltakt/der Daktylus bezeichnet in der Verslehre einen antiken Versfuß aus einer langen (betonten) und zwei kurzen (unbetonten) Silben, der vor allem im Hexameter Verwendung findet. Beispiel: „Wóllt ihr die Fréiheit, so séid keine Knéchte“] Diese Potenzen verwendete er für die Herstellung der Hochpotenzen. Er erhielt für seine Potenziermaschine 1869, 4 Jahre später, ein Patent.
Sein Prinzip nützt zur Dynamisierung der Arznei die Turbulenzen aus, die beim Zutropfen des Arzneiträgers in ein Potenziergefäß entstehen.
Bei dieser Anordnung wurde von einem Vorratsgefäß die Flüssigkeit in ein kleines "Regulatorfläschchen" getropft, das ein bis zum Boden reichendes Glasrohr enthielt. Beim Zutropfen einer Volumeneinheit wurde 1 Potenzierungsschritt durchlaufen. Fincke maß der Form des Fläschchens große Bedeutung für die Qualität der Dynamisierung zu. Das Fläschchen hatte einen verjüngten Hals, durch den ein kurzzeitig erhöhter Innendruck beim Eintropfen der Flüssigkeit gewährleistet war.
Als Dilutionsflüssigkeit wählte er normales Leitungswasser seines Labors in New York. Dies erscheint zunächst ungewöhnlich, er begründete aber seinen Schritt damit, daß man, ausgehend von einer C30, allein durch die Wahl des Dilutionsmittels das homöopathische Bild der Arznei nicht mehr wesentlich beeinflußt.
Das ist eine Hypothese, der man sich schwer entziehen kann, da man sich tatsächlich längst im amolekularen Bereich der Arzneiverdünnung befindet, es geht hier sicher ausschließlich um Übertragung von arzneilicher Information unter Verwendung des allgegenwärtigen Stoffes Wasser. Ein Hinweis auf die Richtigkeit dieser Annahme ergibt sich durch die positiven Erfahrungen mit derart hergestellten Arzneien.
Wenn der Potenzierungsgrad erreicht war, wurde das Regulatorfläschchen mit einer Injektionsnadel entleert, zweimal mit Ethanol per Hand geschüttelt und dann der Inhalt auf Globuli aufgebracht.
Fincke stellte seine Arzneien bis zum Jahre 1905 her, und Kent wie auch Dunham berichteten über ihre Experimente mit diesen Arzneien.
Außer Zweifel steht ihre hohe Wirksamkeit: So berichtet Kent: "The Fincke hight potencies never failed me; they act quickly long and deeply."
Auch E.B. Nash veröffentlichte seine Erfahrungen, die er mit Arzneien dieser Art in der 100M und MM-Potenz gemacht hatte, und er war von deren kräftigen Wirkung überzeugt (10, 13, 28).
Die Apparaturen Finckes und einige der Originalarzneien mit der Bezeichnung "Similia Minimus" sind von Finckes Verwandten der Firma Bornemann übergeben worden und stehen heute im Besitz von Boiron.
Es wurden laufend weitere Verfahren entwickelt, die jenem Finckes sehr ähnlich waren:
Samuel Swan: Seine Maschine ist mit jener B. Finckes vergleichbar, sie enthielt jedoch zwei Abweichungen:
Die zugeflossene Wassermenge wurde mit einer sehr genauen Wasseruhr gemessen.
Von ihr weiterführend wurde das Wasser durch ein perforiertes Rohr gepresst und die dabei auftretenden Turbulenzen bewirkten eine intensive Durchmischung und Dynamisierung der Arznei. Swan verwendete die Zwischenstufen, um daraus in einem weiteren Arbeitsschritt die höheren Potenzen herzustellen, wobei er bei einem neuen Abschnitt immer ein neues Glas einsetzte - "intermittierende Fluxionspotenzen".
Lock: Heute werden Fluxionspotenzen des kontinuierlichen Verfahrens in Brasilien und Argentinien angewandt. Bei der Methode nach Lock wird in einen kleinen Glaszylinder, der mit einer Ablaufvorrichtung versehen ist, laufend Dilutierflüssigkeit zur Arznei getropft. Dabei wird die Flüssigkeit sehr intensiv gerührt (je nach Hersteller 2400 - 15.000 U/min). Das Maß des Potenzierungsgrades stellt dabei die Anzahl der Rührstabumdrehungen sowie das Volumen der durchgeflossenen Arzneiträgerflüssigkeit dar. Mit dieser Apparatur werden in einer Minute 300 Potenzschritte, oder in 24h 432.000 Potenzstufen erreicht (3,18).

Heuschnupfen Homöopathie Pollenallergie Zwiebel Experiment Schnupfen
Akute Klassische Homöopathie
Homöopathie aus der Küche ? kein Witz!
Simples Experiment
akute Schnupfenbehandlung mit einer einfachen selbst hergestellten Zwiebelzubereitung aus der Küche.
Das geht so:
1. Füllen Sie 7 Gläser mit Wasser.
2. Schneiden Sie eine Zwiebel auf und pressen 1 Tropfen daraus in das erste Glas.
3. Rühren Sie das Wasser etwa 15 Sekunden kräftig um.
4. Füllen Sie 1 Teelöffel Zwiebelwasser vom 1. Glas in das 2. Glas und rühren 15 Sekunden kräftig um.
5. Füllen Sie 1 Teelöffel Zwiebelwasser vom 2. Glas in das 3. Glas und rühren 15 Sekunden kräftig um.
6. Setzen Sie diese Anwendung fort bis zum 7. Glas
7. Trinken Sie nur von der 7. Zubereitung und entfernen die anderen Gläser.
8. Trinken Sie bei akuten Beschwerden alle 5-10 Minuten einen Schluck
9. Eine Heilwirkung kann in den nächsten 1-2 Stunden aber auch unmittelbar nach der Einnahme eintreten.
10. Wenn innerhalb 2 Stunden keine Besserung erfolgt, ist das Mittel eher nicht wirksam. Ausnahmsweise kann erst am kommenden Tag eine positive Wirkung erkennbar sein.
Wirkbedingungen:
Jedes Homöopathische Mittel ist an Wirkbedingungen geknüpft.
Das sind vor allem Zustände und Modalitäten.
So ist für die erfolgreiche Anwendung des Zwiebelsaftes folgendes wichtig:
NASE:
wässriger, klarer Fließschnupfen, er kann wundmachend sein und Rötung der Naseneingänge erzeugen.
kribbeln und jucken in der Nase, Niesen, Niesatacken
Geruchssinn kann auch mal verstärkt sein.
AUGEN:
beißende Augenschmerzen die zum Reiben veranlassen.
Tränen fließen im Zimmer vermehrt.
milde eher nichtreizende Augentränen. Lichtscheu.
ATEMWEGE:
Husten durch Kitzeln im Rachen und schlimmer durch einatmen kalter Luft
MODALITÄTEN:
(sind die Bedingungen für Verschlimmerungen und Besserungen des Leidens)
alles wird < Eintritt ins Zimmer und im geschlossenen Raum bleiben.
alles wird > durch frische Luft und im Freien sein.
homöopathischer Kernsatz für Zwiebelschnupfen
Tränenfluss, brennende Augen, wunde Nase, Reizhusten.
Beschwerden werden im Haus schlimmer und im Freien, an der frischen Luft besser.
Meine Erfahrungen geht dahin, dass viele wässrige Schnupfen auf die homöopathische Allium cepa (Küchenzwiebel) heilkräftig reagieren.
Ich wünsche Ihnen Erfolg bei diesem Experiment.
Berichten Sie doch mal von Ihren Erfahrungen.
Nachtrag - Anekdote: Ich kam vor vielen Jahren drauf als meine Schwiegermutter an Fasching plötzlich grippig wurde, heftig Schnupfen bekam, und ihr die Augen überliefen. Sie leitete in der Zeit die Möhnentanzgruppe und die Generalprobe vor Weiberdonnerstag sollte nachmittags stattfinden. Sie rief mich verzweifelt an und ich sagte, da ich i d Praxis unabkömmlich war und sie auch nicht kommen konnte das Prozedere mit den 7 Gläsern am Telefon. Nach 2 Stunden rief sie mich an und war völlig befreit sodass sie die Probe machen konnte. Es folgt auch nichts mehr nach, sie war gesund.
[Dr. Thomas Lindsley Bradford]
Up to the year 1821, Hahnemann had made his triturations
in porcelain mortars with sugar of milk, but the capsules for the patient he
filled with pulverized oyster shell, adding to it the necessary amount of the trituration. At that time pure white milk sugar was an
expensive and rare article, for its chief source of supply, Switzerland, made
and exported only small amounts. It became the first care of our people at Leipsic to secure it in larger amounts and of better
quality, for, like Hahnemann, they were obliged to prepare all their medicines.
The porcelain mortars used were soon replaced by better ones of marble.
About this time Hofrath Henecke,
of Gotha, the editor of the Reichanzeiger, and a good
friend of Hahnemann, suggested Homoeopathic family medicine cases. At first
there was also a scarcity of proper glassware for the very tiny vials. Goose
quills had been commonly used in private practice to contain the medicines.
Bohemia soon supplied its glass. From the globules all starch was removed to
prevent discoloration and crumbling, and they were made of different sizes. As
early as 1828, fine pocket cases were for sale, chiefly made by Lappe, an apothecary of Neudietendorf,
of whom Hahnemann was in the habit of ordering several remedies.
Christian Ernest Otto, of Roetha, near Leipsic. was the first toestablish
a regular Homoeopathic pharmacy. M. Korsakoff, a
Russian gentleman, addressed a letter to Hahnemann in which he recommends the
use of little tubes or vials, for holding the Homoeopathic globules. He
suggests that the pills should be placed in the vial and two or three drops of
the medicinal dilution be poured over them and that they then be shaken
thoroughly. Hahnemann in an answer published in the same journal, approves of
this method, but advises that the pills be not shaken, but stirred with a glass
pin until dried, adding that the evaporation will not affect the medicinal
powers. This answer can also be found in the Lesser Writings. Dudgeon
says: “Korsakoff
was the real original inventor of the high potencies.” Hahnemann said that his
experiments were of great value
as illustrating the extreme divisibility to which the Homoeopathic
medicines could be brought, but advised some limit. In a letter to Dr. Schreeter, dated September 13, 1829, he says “There must be some limit to the thing, it cannot go
on to infinity. By laying it down as a rule that all Homoeopathic medicines be
diluted and potentized up to thirty, we have a
uniform mode of procedure in the treatment of all Homoeopathists, and when they
describe a cure we can repeat it as they do, and we operate with the same
tools.”
Dudgeon says that the introduction of sugar globules into Homoeopathic
practice by Hahnemann dates from about the year 1813, and refers to a note made
by Hahnemann
to paragraph 288 of the fifth edition of the Organon,
viz: “A globule impregnated with the thirtieth potentized dilution and then dried, retains for this
purpose all its power undiminished for at least eighteen or twenty years (my
experience extends that length of time,) even though the vial be opened a
thousand times during that period, if it be
but protected from the heat and sun’s light.“

Nosodes and sarcodes
are potentized preparations prepared according to
homeopathic standards. Nosodes are prepared from
inactivated diseased products of human,
animal or vegetable origin or cultures of micro-organisms. In contrast,
the source material for sarcodes comes from a healthy
tissue, organ or secretion of humans or animals.
As nosodes and sarcodes
are prepared from body substance and discharge they have a peculiar affinity
with the functions of the body and they are unique. Both nosodes
and sarcodes act as prophylactics and can also
be used for improvement of resistance, response to a remedy and for
recuperation. The homeopathic nosodes can be used for
treating residual infections (Bacillinum for
tuberculosis) and as a prophylactic ( Influenzinum
for swine flu) whereas sarcodes are used to help
rebuild organs and tissues
that may be diseased or malfunctioning (lymph, spleen). Keywords:

Homoeopathy was found by Samuel Hahnemann (1796). He started taking
regular doses of Cinchona or ‘the bark’ (i.e. quinine). This, he said, produced
all the symptoms
of intermittent fever (malaria) but to a mild degree and without the
characteristic rigors of that disease. This led Hahnemann to an idea that if a
patient had an illness,
it could be cured by giving a medicine which, if given to a healthy
person, would produce similar symptoms of that same illness but to a slighter
degree. This led to his
famous aphorism, ‘like cures like’, which is often called the principle
of similars.
The earliest experiments with nosodes were
carried out by Constantine Hering between 1827 and
1833. He performed the first proving of Psorinum on
himself.
Hering originated the method of using a
miasmic agent as a basis for a remedy and it was he who coined the term "nosode". Nosodes prepared
from inactivated diseased products of human, animal or vegetable origin or
cultures of micro-organisms. Sarcodes are remedies
prepared from individual healthy organs or tissues, as well as from isolated
bodily substances of human or animal origin. Nosodes
and sarcodes are potentized
isopathic preparations which are prepared according
to homoeopathic standards.
Use of nosodes and sarcodes
in the treatment of diseased conditions is known as isopathy,
organopathy, biotherapy or immunotherapy. The major
difference between
isopathy and homoeopathy is that
homoeopathic remedies involve administration of prepared remedies from plant,
animal or mineral origin whereas isopathy involves
the administration of homoeopathically prepared remedies derived from the same
material that is responsible for causing the disease or from individual healthy
organs, tissues
or bodily substances. Nosodes and sarcodes are prepared from body substances and discharges,
hence they have a peculiar affinity with the functions of the body and they
are unique.
Methodology
Nosodes are homoeopathic preparations
obtained from diseased pathological secretions or excretions and also from
microbial cultures of viruses, bacteria and fungi.
They are processed from original stock which contains isolated microbes,
diseased tissues and clinical materials from which the primary stocks are
prepared.
Classification of Nosodes
Depending upon the nature of material used, nosodes
may be divided into the following four groups:
•N-I-Preparations made from bacterial endotoxins.
•N-II-Preparations made from microorganisms
capable of producing exotoxins
•N-III-Preparations made from purified toxins.
•N-IV-Preparations made from microorganisms or
diseased subjects.
Preparation of Nosodes
Step 1: Identification and procurement of source material It is
necessary to identify and document the authentic source material. The organisms
(may include bacteria, virus, protozoa, parasites or fungi) or other biological
materials can be sourced from academic or commercial source. Source
material/strain
Use the latest virulent or standard strains of organisms. Resistant
strains, combinations of various strains, fresh clinical samples or biological
materials of diseased subjects
are used when culture is not available.
Organism count
The count of the organism in the source material or in the mother source
must be specified, achievable, and significant. The recommended organism count
for making the nosodes suggested in HPI (Homoeopathy
Pharmacopoeia of India) is 20 billion CFU.
Step 2: Nature of material
Depending upon the nature of material, i.e., whether organisms are
capable of producing endotoxins, exotoxins,
made from purified toxins or made from microbes, viruses,
or clinical material from diseased subjects, the preparations are
divided into four groups:
Group N-I - Endotoxins:
Preparations made from lysate of micro-organism
capable of producing bacterial endotoxins, e.g. Typhoidinum.
Group N-II - Exotoxins:
Preparations made from micro-organisms capable of producing exotoxins.
The toxigenicity of the strain is established before
use (Diphtherinum).
Group N-III - Purified toxins: Preparations
made from purified toxins. Purification of toxins is achieved by ultra
filtration, gel filtration chromatography or by affinity chromatography (Tuberculinum).
Group N-IV: Preparations made from
micro-organisms/viruses/clinical materials from human convalescents or diseased
subjects (Anthracinum).
Step 3: Removal of common co-infection/contamination
Purity of the source material has to be established. All possible
contaminants must be removed. In case the source material being blood samples,
they must be tested to rule
out other known possible co-infections. In cases of Hepatitis C and HIV nosodes, possible co-infections such as gonorrhoea,
syphilis, herpes, and tuberculosis should be ruled out. In case of pure
cultures, this step can be omitted.
Step 4: Removal/separation of other components
In case of any nosode sourced from serum,
serum expression, centrifugation, +/o. filtration can be used to procure the
organism from the source material. If nosode is
sourced from the blood samples, the samples are subjected to centrifugation to
obtain clear serum and filtration (Seitz filter) to get rid of cell debris,
unidentified bacteria.
If the source material is obtained by scraping of parasite-infected
animal or human tissues, then the pure parasite is isolated from large protein
keratin component of skin
by boiling the scrapings with potassium hydroxide (KOH) in water medium.
Step 5: Characterization of source material Microorganisms need to be
characterized in terms of strains, as per the latest available technology. In case
of bacteria-strain characterization and for virus, typing is done, i.e.,
knowing the type and subtype of viruses.
Step 6: Safety
Stringent biosafety compliant environment is
recommended with minimum handling using sealed containers and disposable auto-tip
pipettes.

Step 7: Preparation of mother tincture
Tincture is prepared with equal parts by weight of drug material and
alcohol (sometimes alcohol: water in ratio 9:1) Drug substances that are
soluble in alcohol or distilled
water are succussed. Substances which are
insoluble are prepared by Hahnemann method of trituration,
i.e., drug substance is triturated with solid vehicle like lactose in
the ratio 1:10. These are then converted into a liquid potency and
further potentisation is carried out by the process
of succussion.
Step 8: Dynamization of potencies •
One part of the mother tincture is diluted in 99 parts of alcohol or in
a mixture of water and alcohol. This liquid is then succussed
10x in its bottle by firmly hitting the bottle’s base against a firm but
resistive surface such as the palm of a hand or a leather covered book. The
resulting liquid is called 1C potency, “1” referring to its first stage of
dilution and the Roman numeral, “C”, referring to its 1:100 dilution ratio. One
part of this 1C potency is again diluted and succussed
in 99 parts of alcohol or water and alcohol mixture to produce a 2C remedy.
This serial process of dilution and succussion,
called potentisation, is further repeated to produce
increasingly higher potencies of the remedy The process of succussion
activates the potency or vital energy6 (medicinal property in the form of
energy) of the diluted drug substance, and that successive dilution. increases
the "potency" of the preparation.
Step 9: Safety check for human use It is required to establish the
safety of the nosodes. Test for sterility for aerobic
and anaerobic organisms should be carried out before issuing nosodes for therapeutic use or for manufacturing of higher
potencies.
Step 10: Lyophilization of the original stock
to allows remaking of the nosodes in future, without
any need to repeat initial steps. In future, a centralized depository system
could be made where standardized raw materials can be preserved for future use.
Commonly used nosodes Tuberculinum is a homeopathic preparation made from sterilized
Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Bacilli are removed from people afflicted with
tuberculosis. The bacilli are sterilized and then they are mixed with alcohol
to form a mother tincture from which they are succussed
into various potencies.
It is commonly used to treat respiratory tract ailments such as enlarged
tonsils, cough, bronchitis, cold, and hay fever. It can also be recommended for
arthritic pains and nervous weakness.
Influenzinum prepared from the viral strains of
influenza. They are diluted, potentized and are
completely safe and non-toxic. Influenzinum is
commonly used for the following: Strengthening the body and increasing its
resistance to the flu viruses. Relieves flu symptoms such as body aches,
nausea, chills, fever, headache, sore throat, cough and congestion. Enforces
the flu vaccine's action and alleviates its adverse effects. Psorinum prepared from the fluid of blisters from scabies of
infested skin.
Once diluted and potentised none of the
original fluid remains but the energetic effects acts as a remedy.
Psorinum has the ability to treat conditions such as
acne, allergy, asthma, bronchitis, cold, depression, dermatitis and eczema. It
is also useful for treatment of headache, insomnia, middle ear infection, pharyngitis, phobia and psoriasis.
Sarcodes are homoeopathic preparations obtained from
healthy animal tissues and secretions that contain biological molecules which
have specific physiological functions
in humans.
