Volume VII: Selected Facebook Updates And Tweets Of Chandran K C On Scientific Homeopathy

Nobody can make a scientific theory without first proposing a SCIENTIFIC HYPOTHESIS.

Homeopathic theoreticians from hahnemann till date try to explain the ‘modus operandi’ of potentized homeopathic medicines using one or other ‘concepts’ available or evolved by them, and as such, homeopathy still belongs to a class of ‘unverified science’. But all those concepts were not even qualified to be called SCIENTIFIC HYPOTHESIS.

‘Hypothesis’ has a well-defined meaning in scientific methodology. By the term ‘hypothesis’ we mean a ‘proposed explanation’ or “educated guess” for a phenomenon that we observe around us. Every ‘proposed explanation’ cannot be considered a ‘scientific hypothesis’. To be a ‘scientific hypothesis’, the scientific method requires that one can test the hypothesis using available scientific tools and methodology. Every new scientific hypothesis is generally based on previous observations that could not be satisfactorily be explained with the existing scientific theories. The words “hypothesis” and “theory” are often used synonymously in common and informal usage, even though a ‘scientific hypothesis’ is not exactly the same as ‘a scientific theory’.

A hypothesis should be proved ‘using scientific tools’ in order to become a scientific theory. A ‘working hypothesis’ is a provisionally accepted hypothesis that is ready to be proved. Experimenters will have to test and reject several hypotheses before solving the given problem ultimately.

Testability (using existing scientific tools), Simplicity (avoiding excessive numbers of entities), Scope (apparent application of the hypothesis to multiple cases of phenomena), Fruitfulness (hypothesis may help to explain further phenomena in the future), and Conservatism (fitting with existing recognized knowledge-systems) are considered to be the essential qualities of a good scientific hypothesis.

Viewing from this standpoint, it is very much clear that most of the presently existing most celebrated ‘theories’ or hypotheses regarding homeopathy cannot be considered ‘scientific hypotheses’ since they contain concepts and conclusions that ‘could not be tested by any scientist using currently available scientific tools and methodology’ or ‘fit with existing recognized knowledge-systems’.

When attempting to provide a scientific explanation to homeopathy, first we have to propose a ‘scientific hypotheses’. That means, a hypothesis that ‘could be tested by any scientist using currently available scientific tools and methodology’ and that ‘fits with existing recognized knowledge-systems’.

Such a working hypothesis, over and above the aforesaid qualifications, should also be immediately useful to the practitioner, because homeopathy is a therapeutic art of practical implications. Besides lending the essential scientific credibility to the homeopathic paradigm, any hypothesis we propose should try to meet some practical utility criteria as a minimum requirement.

There are already many imaginative and ‘scientific’ ‘theories’ going around that seek to explain everything about homeopathy but fail to predict or offer anything of relevance. If a hypothesis fail to predict some relevant practical outcomes, then it becomes scientifically untestable and, therefore, unusable in practice.

Assumptions being proposed by a scientific hypothesis should be simple, testable and their numbers should be held to a minimum. The assumptions should also reflect the basic experience that is already generally held to be known.

Any working hypothesis about homeopathy should clearly identify a ‘biological mechanism’ that represents the action-reaction homeostasis of ‘vital processes’, which is called as the ‘vital force’ in homeopathy. It should also be capable of explaining the molecular mechanism of homeopathic therapeutics in a way fitting to the verified scientific paradigm of modern biochemistry and molecular biology.

Once a working hypothesis is proposed, there is much more research to be done before that is accepted as a ‘scientific theory’. The hypothesis needs to offer predictions that can be repeatedly and conclusively proved or disproved in the laboratory and in the clinic with out any bias.

Please remember, homeopathy so far lacks something that could at least be legitimately called ‘a scientific working hypothesis’. We are learning, teaching, practicing and boasting about some ‘theories’ that are not even ‘hypotheses’ in its scientific sense. Yet, we dare to declare that homeopathy is ‘ultimate science’! We dare to declare that ‘hypotheses are unnecessary’!

For the first time in the history of homeopathy, MIT proposes some concepts that could be presented as a legitimate candidate to be called a ‘scientific working hypothesis’ that could be proved according to scientific methods.

There lies the historical relevance of concepts put forward by MOLECULAR IMPRINTS THERAPEUTICS, which proposes for the first time a scientifically TESTABLE model for BIOLOGICAL MECHANISM of homeopathic therapeutics, in a way fitting to modern scientific knowledge system.

MIT is not to be “followed” or “practiced” in its present state of evolution- It has to be understood, verified and proved.

I know very well how to explain MIT and my views. I know very well what are to be criticized in homeopathy and how to criticize them. I criticize unscientific IDEAS propagated in the name of homeopathy and malign this wonderful therapeutic system- not due to any personal rivalry towards any INDIVIDUAL. I criticize unscientific theories as part of propagating SCIENTIFIC HOMEOPATHY. Personally I do not even know these persons whose ideas I criticize- I am not bothered who they are.

If you disagree with me on any point I raised, you can criticize me by explaining the specific points you disagree with. But don’t make it a personal war, and don’t try to advice me how to explain MIT, especially when you are prejudiced against it.

I know what is fair and what is unfair for me. It is my right whether i should “practice facebook or clinic”. I don’t mind if you think I am “practicing facebook”. Some people “practice clinic”. Some people “practice occult”. Some people “practice seminars”. I “practice facebook”!

Fear of ‘suppression of disease’ that may happen from ‘improper’ use of homeopathic drugs is the most prominent symptom of any ‘classical homeopath’, which indicates severe deficiency of scientific knowledge regarding the biochemistry of life, disease and cure. This ‘phobia’ is ‘inherited’ through generations of homeopaths, from ‘teachers’ to ‘students’, and ‘gurus’ to ‘disciples’. Modern ‘Gurus’ spin fanciful ‘theories of suppressions’, write and sell heavy books on their ‘theories’, and fly around the globe to conduct ‘expensive’ seminars to ‘educate’ the homeopathic community for the sole purpose of saving humanity from grave dangers imposed by homeopathic ‘suppression’.

Those who are severely afflicted with this ‘deficiency syndrome’ will hesitate to prescribe even a single dose of potentized drug to their patient, fearing it may ‘drive in’ the disease from ‘external parts’ to ‘vital’ internal organs if the prescription somehow happens not to be the ‘most appropriate similimum’. They would shudder with fear of dangers of ‘suppression’ if somebody says they have applied some external ointments on eczematous lesion on the skin. According to them, homeopathic drugs are so ‘powerful’ and ‘dangerous’ that an inappropriate or untimely dose of a potentized drug may even kill the patient, or create irreversible disabilities. ‘Better not to prescribe, than prescribing wrongly and causing suppression’.

One of the most fanciful modern theories regarding ‘suppression’ is that constructed by combining ‘Hering laws’ and ‘embryonic layers’.

According to proponents of this theory, genuine cure happens only if the curative process follows the ‘Hering laws of directions of cure’: symptoms should disappear in the reverse chronological order of their appearance in disease, symptoms should travel from internal parts of body to external parts, symptoms should travel from more vital organs to less vital organs, symptoms should travel from ‘upper’ parts of the body to ‘lower’ parts.

As per this theory, any drug effect that does not ‘follow’ these directions cannot be considered ‘curative’, but ‘suppressions’! ‘Guru’ colored this ‘hering laws a little more ‘scientific’, by relating it with his theory of ‘embryonic layers’ of organ development. To give a scientific touch to his theories, he utilized the concept of ‘germ layers’ in embryology. Since ‘embryo’ develops from a three-layered structure having endoderm, mesoderm and ectoderm in its initial stage, disease and cure have to be perceived and treated in in relation with these ‘layers’. According to his reasoning, during embryonic development, organs develop from endoderm to ectoderm, ‘outer’ organs belonging to ‘ectoderm’ are least important, organs belonging to mesoderm are comparatively more important, and ‘inner’ organs belonging to ‘endoderm’ are most ‘vital’ organs of an organism. Disease always ‘travels’ in a reverse order, from ‘external’ layer to ‘inner’ layer, and hence, cure should take place from ‘inner’ organs to ‘outer’ organs. By this way, he relates his theory of embryonic layers with hering laws, thereby creating a ‘scientific’ foundation for his ‘theory of suppressions’. He theorizes that genuine cure should be in a direction from inner layer to outer layer, and if it happens in reverse order, the disease will be ‘suppressed’, which is not at all desirable.

‘Hering laws’ and ‘embryonic layers’ are the foundation of this ‘theory of suppression’.

When we go deeper into the history of homeopathy, it would be clear that there was not any mention of such ‘hering laws’ in the works of even Hering or his contemporaries. Actually, it was the ‘observation’ made by hahnemann that curative process has some ‘order’, but he never called it a law. Hering has mentioned in his earlier works about hahnemann’s ‘four observations regarding order of cure’, but finally in 1875 he wrote only about a single direction of cure: ‘in the reverse direction of disease process’. He never called it or expected to be known as ‘herings laws’. None of his famous contemporaries and close colleagues ever discussed or made any reference to a law of direction of cure. Writings of Boenninghausen, Jahr, Joslin, P.P. Wells, Lippe, H.N.Guernsey, Dunham, E.A. Farrington, H.C. Allen, Nash, etc, were all silent.

It was ‘KENT’ who later actually called it ‘Herings laws’ and converted these four observations into ‘fundamental laws’ of homeopathic cure. He taught to understand and apply these ‘laws’ in a mechanical way. He taught homeopaths to consider ‘hering laws’ regarding ‘directions of cure’ as one of the ‘fundamental laws’ of homeopathy, similar to ‘similia similibus curentur’.Kentmade homeopaths believe that drug effects that do not agree with these ‘laws’ cannot be considered ‘curative’, and are ‘suppressive’.

Dr. André Saine, D.C., N.D., F.C.A.H, Dean of the Canadian Academy of Homeopathy, who made extensive studies on this topic says:

“When Hering died in 1880, colleagues all over the world assembled to pay tribute to the great homeopath. His many accomplishments were recalled. Strangely, none made any mention of a law of direction of cure promulgated by Hering. Arthur Eastman, a student who was close to Hering during the last three years of the venerable homeopath, published in 1917 Life and Reminiscences of Dr. Constantine Hering also without mentioning a law pertaining to direction of cure. Calvin Knerr, Hering’s son-in-law, published in 1940, 60 years after Hering’s death, the Life of Hering, a compilation of biographical notes. Again no mention is made of the famous law”

“In 1865, Hering described these observations not as a law but as Hahnemann’s general observations or as plain practical rules. Essentially he emphasizes the proposition that the ‘symptoms should disappear in the reverse order of their appearance during the treatment’ of patients with chronic psoric diseases. In 1875, Hering discussed only one proposition, that the ‘symptoms will disappear in the reverse order of their appearance’. The three other propositions are now not mentioned at all. All the illustrious contemporaries of Hering seems to remain silent on this point, at least as far as available literature shows. In 1911,Kent, almost arbitrarily, calls the original observations of Hahnemann “Hering’s law”.

Logically, according to the latest observations made by Hering in 1875, he only meant that “all genuine ‘curative processes’ should happen in a direction just reverse to disease processes”.

Over-extending and mechanical application of ‘herings laws’ without understanding their exact premises and scientific meaning may lead to grave errors regarding interpretation of curative processes and drug effects.

This phenomenon could be explained in the light of modern scientific understanding of ‘cascading of pathological molecular inhibitions’ and complex dynamics of ‘bio-molecular feed back mechanisms’.

To understand this explanation, one has to equip himself with at least a working knowledge regarding the concepts of modern biochemistry regarding the bio-molecular inhibitions involved in pathology and therapeutics.

Expect those diseases which are purely due to errors in genetic substances, and those diseases which are due to genuine deficiency of building materials of biological molecules, all other diseases are considered to be caused by ‘molecular inhibitions’. Pathogenic molecules of endogenous or exogenous origin bind to some biological molecules in the organism, causing ‘molecular inhibitions’ which lead to pathological derangement in associated biochemical pathways. These pathogenic molecules may be of infectious, environmental, nutritional, metabolic, drug-induced, miasmatic or any other origin. Derangements in biochemical pathways are expressed through diverse groups of subjective and objective symptoms. This is the fundamental biochemistry of pathology.

Molecular inhibitions happening in a biological molecule due to the binding of a pathogenic molecule initiates a complex process of ‘cascading of molecular errors’ and ‘bio-feedback mechanisms’ in the organism. Errors happening in a particular biochemical pathway leads to errors in another pathway which is dependant on the first pathway for regular supply of metabolites, which further lead to errors in another pathway. This ‘cascading of molecular errors’ happens through successive stages, which is expressed through new subjective and objective symptoms. This ‘cascading’ is behind what we call ‘advancing of disease’ into new systems and organs, exhibiting ever new groups of associated symptoms. For an observer, this cascading appears in the form of ‘traveling of disease’ from one system into another. Along with these ‘cascading’ of molecular errors, there happens a series of activation and shutting down of complex ‘bio-molecular feedback’ mechanisms also. The phenomenon of ‘advancing of diseases’ should be studied in this scientific perspective of modern biochemistry.

When a molecular inhibition happens in some biological molecule ‘A’ due to binding of a pathogenic molecule ‘a’, it actually stops or decreases some essential molecular conversions that are essential part of a complex biochemical pathway P. If ‘G’ is the normal ligand of ‘A’, and ‘g’ is the product of biochemical interaction involving ‘A’, the result of this molecular inhibition is that ‘G’ accumulates on one side, and ‘g’ is not available for the next stage of molecular processes. Accumulating ‘P’ may induce a feedback mechanism leading to reduction or stoppage its production itself, or may move to other parts of organism and bind to unwanted molecular targets, initiation a new stream of pathological derangement.

Obviously, ‘traveling’ of disease or ‘advancing’ of disease happens through cascading of molecular errors in various biochemical pathways. Some disease processes may ‘travel’ from ‘external’ to internal organs, some from ‘lower parts’ to upper parts, some from ‘less vital’ parts to ‘more vital’ parts. All these ‘traveling’ is basically decided by the involved biochemical pathways. It would be wrong to generalize these observations in such a way that ‘all diseases travel from exterior to interior, lower parts to higher parts, and less vital to more vital parts’. It is also wrong to generalize in such a way that ‘curative process always travel from interior to exterior, above downwards, and from vital to less vital parts’. This is mechanical understanding and application of hering’s observations.

Actually, curative processes happens in a direction opposite to the direction of disease process. That depends upon the biochemical pathways involved and the exact dynamics of cascading of molecular inhibitions. Its dynamics is very complex, and should not be interpreted and applied in a mechanistic way. When ‘molecular inhibitions’ underlying the disease processes are systematically removed using molecular imprints, the curative process also would take place in the reverse direction of disease processes.

To sum up, Hering’s observations regarding a ‘directions of disease and cure’ is a valuable one, but it should be studied in the light of modern biochemistry.

‘Curative processes happen in a direction just reverse to disease processes”- that is the sum total of Hering’s observations regarding ‘directions of cure’.

It is well obvious that the modern “theories of suppressions’ claimed to be based on hering’s laws stands on a historically and scientifically weak foundation.

Let us now examine the theory of ‘embryonic layers’, which forms the second pillar of ‘theory of suppression’.

Essentially, Dr Vijayakar, in his ‘theory of suppressions’, charts the development of the human embryo in seven stages, from the cells and mind to the neural plate, neuro-endocrine system, mesoderm, connective tissues, endoderm, and its eventual cornpletion at the ectoderm. According to him, all of the organs of the body derive from these seven layers of development. To illustrate, the GI tract is formed as part of the endoderm, whilst the kidneys were formed earlier in the mesoderm.

Vijayakar reasons that as natural embryonic growth progresses from the inside to the outside (even our bones develop this way), disease and ill-health will inevitably move in the reverse direction, i.e. from the outside to the inside- from the ectoderm to the endoderm, from the endoderm to the mesoderm- deeper and deeper. So if you know which parts of the body are associated with each level you can clearly see the progression of disease”.

Which text book of embryology says about the development of human embryo starting from “cells and mind”? Is it vijaykar’s invention? Embryology never deals with ‘mind’, but only ‘cells’. Obviously, vijaykar wanted to make a theory seemingly scientific utilizing some concepts borrowed from genetics, but same time he wanted to establish that ‘mind’ is primary in the development of embryo. Hence, he added the word ‘mind’ along with ‘cells’ while describing the initial stages of embryonic development. According to his interpretation of ‘embryology’, development of human embryo ‘starts’ from ‘cells and mind’, then advances “to the neural plate, neuro-endocrine system, mesoderm, connective tissues, endoderm, and its eventual completion at the ectoderm”.

Embryology says: “The gastrula with its blastopore soon develops three distinct layers of cells (the germ layers) from which all the bodily organs and tissues then develop: the innermost layer, or endoderm, gives rise to the digestive organs, lungs and bladder; the middle layer, or mesoderm, gives rise to the muscles, skeleton and blood system; the outer layer of cells, or ectoderm, gives rise to the nervous system and skin”

”A germ layer, occasionally referred to as a germinal epithelium, is a group of cells, formed during animal embryogenesis. Germ layers are particularly pronounced in the vertebrates; however, all animals more complex than sponges (eumetazoans and agnotozoans) produce two or three primary tissue layers (sometimes called primary germ layers). Animals with radial symmetry, like cnidarians, produce two germ layers (the ectoderm and endoderm) making them diploblastic. Animals with bilateral symmetry produce a third layer between these two layers (appropriately called the mesoderm) making them triploblastic. Germ layers eventually give rise to all of an animal’s tissues and organs through the process of organogenesis”

“The endoderm is one of the germ layers formed during animal embryogenesis. Cells migrating inward along the archenteron form the inner layer of the gastrula, which develops into the endoderm.

‘The endoderm consists at first of flattened cells, which subsequently become columnar. It forms the epithelial lining of the whole of the digestive tube except part of the mouth and pharynx and the terminal part of the rectum (which are lined by involutions of the ectoderm). It also forms the lining cells of all the glands which open into the digestive tube, including those of the liver and pancreas; the epithelium of the auditory tube and tympanic cavity; the trachea, bronchi, and air cells of the lungs; the urinary bladder and part of the urethra; and the follicle lining of the thyroid gland and thymus”

“The endoderm forms: the stomach, the colon, the liver, the pancreas, the urinary bladder, the lining of the urethra, the epithelial parts of trachea, the lungs, the pharynx, the thyroid, the parathyroid, and the intestines.”

”The mesoderm germ layer forms in the embryos of triploblastic animals. During gastrulation, some of the cells migrating inward contribute to the mesoderm, an additional layer between the endoderm and the ectoderm. The formation of a mesoderm led to the development of a coelom. Organs formed inside a coelom can freely move, grow, and develop independently of the body wall while fluid cushions and protects them from shocks. The mesoderm forms: skeletal muscle, the skeleton, the dermis of skin, connective tissue, the urogenital system, the heart, blood (lymph cells), the kidney, and the spleen.”

”The ectoderm is the start of a tissue that covers the body surfaces. It emerges first and forms from the outermost of the germ layers. The ectoderm forms: the central nervous system, the lens of the eye, cranial and sensory, the ganglia and nerves, pigment cells, head connective tissues, the epidermis, hair, and mammary glands. Because of its great importance, the neural crest is sometimes considered a fourth germ layer. It is, however, derived from the ectoderm”.

“The “ectoderm” is one of the three primary germ cell layers in the very early embryo. The other two layers are the mesoderm (middle layer) and endoderm (inside layer), with the ectoderm as the most exterior layer. It emerges first and forms from the outer layer of germ cells. Generally speaking, the ectoderm differentiates to form the nervous system (spine, peripheral nerves and brain), tooth enamel and the epidermis (the outer part of integument). It also forms the lining of mouth, anus, nostrils, sweat glands, hair and nails”.

“In vertebrates, the ectoderm has three parts: external ectoderm (also known as surface ectoderm), the neural crest, and neural tube. The latter two are known as neuroectoderm”.

Please note this point: The fertilized ovum “develops three distinct layers of cells (the germ layers) from which all the bodily organs and tissues then develop: the innermost layer, or endoderm, gives rise to the digestive organs, lungs and bladder; the middle layer, or mesoderm, gives rise to the muscles, skeleton and blood system; the outer layer of cells, or ectoderm, gives rise to the nervous system and skin”

It is obvious that brain and nervous system develops from ‘ectoderm’ layer. It is the ‘outermost’ layer of embryo, not ‘innermost’. The theory of vijaykar that ‘brain and mind’ belongs to innermost embryonic layer is pure nonsense. They develop from ‘outermost’ embryonic layer called ‘ectoderm’, from which organs such as skin and hair also develops. His theory that embryonic development ‘starts’ with ‘mind’ and ‘ends’ with ‘ectoderm’ has nothing to do with embryology, except that he plays with some terms used in embryology.

Vijayakar reasons that as natural embryonic growth progresses from the inside to the outside, disease and ill-health will inevitably move in the reverse direction, i.e. from the outside to the inside. This is the most fundamental ‘reasoning’ of vijaykar, which he utilizes to build a common ground with ‘hering laws regarding directions of cure’ on which his whole ‘theoretical system is built upon. We already saw that the concept ‘direction of embryonic development’ on which his ‘reasoning’ is itself totally baseless. Embryonic development does not start from ‘inner’ organs of endoderm and ‘complete’ with ‘outer’ organs of ectoderm’ as vijaykar tries to establish.

Even if the direction of ‘embryonic development’ was from ‘inner layer to outer layer’, what is the logic behind his ‘reasoning’ that ‘disease and ill-health will inevitably move in the reverse direction, i.e. from the outside to the inside”?

Most funny thing regarding this ‘reasoning’ is that it goes against the fundamental concept of disease accepted by ‘classical homeopathy’ that ‘diseases originate in the level of vital force’. Vijaykar says ‘direction od disease is from ‘outermost layer’ to ‘innermost layer’. Should we understand that ‘vital force’ belongs to ‘outermost’ layer of organism according to the interpretation of Vijayakar? Both cannot be right by any way. Either vijaykar should say that diseases originate in ‘vital force’ which is the ‘innermost layer’, or he should say disease start in the ‘outermost’ layer, that is skin and hair.

Since vijaykar has gone totally wrong and self contradicting in his understanding of embryonic layers and ‘direction of embryonic development’, his explanation of ‘hering law’ based on his ‘reasoning’ is pure nonsense.

It is clear that Vijayakar’s understanding of ‘herings laws as well as ‘embryonic layers’ is fundamentally wrong. His ‘Theory of Suppressions’ and the ‘Methods’ based on these wrong foundations are obviously untenable.

In ‘chronic diseases’, hahnemann was talking about the chronic constitutional effects of infectious diseases such as itch, syphilis and gonorrhoea. He thought that these chronic disease dispositions caused by infectious diseases were due to their ‘suppression’ through faulty allopathic medications and external applications. He called these ‘chronic dispositions’ as ‘miasms’. Actually, these chronic dispositions after infectious diseases were not due to any suppression, but the ‘off-target’ effects of antibodies formed against infections. Hahnemann could not understand this ‘antibody factor’ of chronic miasms. That is due to the historical limitations of scientific knowledge available during his period. ‘Historical limitations’ is different from being ‘wrong’.

Modern theories of suppressions are different. They are theorizing about suppressions caused by ‘improper’ application of homeopathic drugs. Those theories are different from what hahnemann considered suppressions.

Theories of suppression as ‘driving in’ of diseases to ‘inner vital organs’ by application of ‘wrong’ drugs is based on an exaggerated application of hering laws and a total misinterpretation of embryology. I was examining thse theoreticalfoundations of modern ‘theory of suppression’. Hering law is over extended, and ’embryological layers’ is mis-interpreted. Logical scrutiny shows that both these theoretical foundations of ‘theory of suppression’ are wrong. That is my point here.

Concept of ‘suppressions’ is based on unscientific understanding of disease, cure, potentization and ‘similia similibus curentur. Scientific awareness is the only way to free homeopaths from the persistent fear of ‘suppressions’, and enable them to make logical prescriptions without any hesitations and forebodings. Understanding the biochemistry of life, disease and cure is essential for this. Homeopaths should realize the exact process of molecular imprinting involved in potentization, and perceive potentized drugs in terms of constituent molecular imprints. They should also learn the molecular mechanism of homeopathic therapeutics as removal of pathological molecular inhibitions by the action of molecular imprints. Homeopaths would then realize that no potentized homeopathic drugs can make any ‘suppression’ or ‘dangerous consequences’. If the selection of similimum was wrong, it will not act. If the selected drug is ‘partial similimum’, it would give partial cure. In that case, cure can be completed by using additional drugs, which are indicated by totality of remaining symptoms.

——————————————————————————————————

A Follower of PREDICTIVE HOMEOPATHY said “Dr Vijayakar has explained “how homoeopathy works in light of modern science”. Can any follower of PREDICTIVE school explain following TWO points?

1. According to Dr Vijayakar, what are the ACTIVE PRINCIPLES of potentized drugs?

2. According to Dr Vijayakar, WHAT is exact BIOLOGICAL MECHANISM of homeopathic cure?

————————————————————————————————

I have already explained why I think potentized drugs should be repeated frequently until cure. In some case, single dose may do the work. But there is always the danger of failure in single dose methods, because, molecular imprints may get anti-doted and inactivated by many environmental molecules that enter our body. Many failures of excellent prescriptions are due to this inactivation.

Moreover, according to me, molecular imprints cannot do any harm even if administered in excess or without indication, since they cannot affect normal bio-molecular processes.

As such, to ensure cure, it is desirable to repeat frequently until cure.

A post on our group:

“my face skin is going to very dull and dark also…… Pls suggest some remedy!!! I take minimum 3litre water – fruits & healthy diet….. But it doesn’t work…. pls help!!!”

A SEHGAL homeopath prescribed instantly:

“PRAYING , DELUSION HELP CALLING FOR , EMBARRASSMENT AILMENT AFTER -PLATINA 30. Every pt that comes us wants to be cured &SEEKING OUR HELP , but ,but every pt does not say” please help me” as this rubric is given in DR KENTS REP. by DR KENT & ONLY platina is there ,so this rubric will qualify only if the pt asks for help [help -to call for assistance ] thIS pt tried himself a few things but he realized that he want some one to help him to come out of this situation ,so then this rubric qualified , every pt wont say this in your clinic ,’please help me ‘,only PLATINA pt will say”.

Only because the patient used the term “please help me” in his facebook post, how can we use the rubric “PRAYING , DELUSION HELP CALLING FOR , EMBARRASSMENT AILMENT AFTER”? How can any homeopath “interpret” symptoms and rubrics in such a funny way?

This rubric is actually about “AILMENT AFTER EMBARRASSMENT”, with “DELUSIONS” of “PRAYING”, and “CALLING FOR HELP”. Only a SEHGAL follower can use this rubric when somebody says “please help me”!

When I raised my doubts, the SEHGAL HOMEOPATH said to me:

“You seems to have lots of doubts & reservations about using mind rubrics ,because using & interpreting mind section of repertory is a serious business ,as we here in punjab are using exclusively mind rubrics to treat serious & pathologically advanced cases , kindly spare some time from your busy schedule to study the books written by DR M.L.SEHGAL , i am sure all your queries & doubts will be answered through these books , [in this case it would have been very very difficult to prescribe on physical symptoms as the info. is short , i prescribed on mind symptoms and justified it with rubrics ] books can be had from indian books &periodocals publishers N. delhi”

I have “doubts & reservations ” regarding the use of inappropriate and irrelevant mind rubrics, as you did in the present case. Do you think I am not equipped for “using & interpreting mind section of repertory” as it ” is a serious business” only SEHGAL followers are capable of? You are advising me to “tstudy the books written by DR M.L.SEHGAL”, because you think my “doubts and reservations” could be resolved ONLY by reading those books. There are lot of homeopaths around the world who use mind rubrics without ever reading SEHGAL.

—————————————————————————————

Dr Vijaykar totally failed to comprehend the biochemistry involved in homeopathic therapeutics, and hence could not interpret the ‘directions of disease and cure’ in relation with the interactions of biochemical pathways. In the absence of essential scientific knowledge, he only tried to make his theories appear ‘scientific’ by utilizing some terms from embryology and genetics. Playing with scientific vocabulary, he was successful in marketing his theories well among the ‘science-starved’ sections of homeopathic community.

David Witko, in his book review published in ‘The Homoeopath’,The Society of Homoeopaths.2 Artizan Road,NorthamptonNN1 4HU,United Kingdom, on ‘Predictive Homeopathy Part One – Theory of Suppression’ by Dr Prafull Vijayakar, said as follows :

“Essentially, and in outline, he charts the development of the human embryo in seven stages, from the cells and mind to the neural plate, neuro-endocrine system, mesoderm, connective tissues, endoderm, and its eventual cornpletion at the ectoderm”

“All of the organs of the body derive from these seven layers of development. To illustrate, the GI tract is formed as part of the endoderm, whilst the kidneys were formed earlier in the mesoderm”

“Vijayakar reasons that as natural embryonic growth progresses from the inside to the outside (even our bones develop this way), disease and ill-health will inevitably move in the reverse direction, i.e. from the outside (in Hering-speak) to the inside. From the ectoderm to the endoderm. From the endoderm to the mesoderm. Deeper and deeper. So if you know which parts of the body are associated with each level you can clearly see the progression of disease”.

This review of David Witko amply illustrates the essence of Vijaykar’s theory of ‘embryonic layers’ relating with hering’s law, on which his whole ‘methods’ and systems’ are built up on.

Obviously, vijaykar wanted to make a theory seemingly scientific utilizing some concepts borrowed from genetics, but same time he wanted to establish that ‘mind’ is primary in the development of embryo. Hence, he added the word ‘mind’ along with ‘cells’ while describing the initial stages of embryonic development.

According to his interpretation of ‘embryology’, development of human embryo ‘starts’ from ‘cells and mind’, then advances “to the neural plate, neuro-endocrine system, mesoderm, connective tissues, endoderm, and its eventual completion at the ectoderm”.

“The mesoderm germ layer forms in the embryos of triploblastic animals. During gastrulation, some of the cells migrating inward contribute to the mesoderm, an additional layer between the endoderm and the ectoderm.

The formation of a mesoderm led to the development of a coelom. Organs formed inside a coelom can freely move, grow, and develop independently of the body wall while fluid cushions and protects them from shocks.
The mesoderm forms: skeletal muscle, the skeleton, the dermis of skin, connective tissue, the urogenital system, the heart, blood (lymph cells), the kidney, and the spleen.”

“The ectoderm is the start of a tissue that covers the body surfaces. It emerges first and forms from the outermost of the germ layers.

The ectoderm forms: the central nervous system, the lens of the eye, cranial and sensory, the ganglia and nerves, pigment cells, head connective tissues, the epidermis, hair, and mammary glands.

Because of its great importance, the neural crest is sometimes considered a fourth germ layer. It is, however, derived from the ectoderm”

”In vertebrates, the ectoderm has three parts: external ectoderm (also known as surface ectoderm), the neural crest, and neural tube. The latter two are known as neuroectoderm.””

David Witko says: “Vijayakar reasons that as natural embryonic growth progresses from the inside to the outside, disease and ill-health will inevitably move in the reverse direction, i.e. from the outside to the inside”.

This is the most fundamental ‘reasoning’ of vijaykar, which he utilizes to build a common ground with ‘hering laws regarding directions of cure’ on which his whole ‘theoretical system is built upon.

We already saw that the concept ‘direction of embryonic development’ on which his ‘reasoning’ is itself totally baseless. Embryonic development does not start from ‘inner’ organs of endoderm and ‘complete’ with ‘outer’ organs of ectoderm’ as vijaykar tries to establish.

‘Curative processes happen in a direction just reverse to disease processes’- that is the sum total of Hering’s observations regarding ‘directions of cure’.

The four ‘laws’ now known as ‘herings laws’ are actually the working examples he used to demonstrate this fundamental observation.

It was the later ‘interpreters’ who actually converted these four ‘working’ examples into ‘fundamental laws’ of homeopathic cure. They understood and applied these ‘laws’ in a mechanical way. They taught homeopaths to consider ‘hering laws’ regarding ‘directions of cure’ as one of the ‘fundamental laws’ of homeopathy, similar to ‘similia similibus curentur’. They made homeopaths believe that drug effects that do not agree with these ‘laws’ cannot be considered ‘curative’, and are ‘suppressive’. There are some modern streams of homeopathic practice which rely more upon ‘hering laws’ than ‘similia similibu curentur’ in their methods of therapeutic applications.

Actually, Hahnemann did not seriously work upon those aspects of curative processes which we call ‘directions of cure’, or considered it a decisive factor in homeopathic therapeutics. He was more concerned about ‘misms’ in the management of ‘chronic diseases’, where as Hering did not consider ‘miasms’ at all.

Some modern ‘theoreticians’ have come with new theories by combining ‘hering laws’ and theory of miasms, also mixing up with terms of ‘genetics’ and ‘embryology’ which they propagate as the ‘only’ correct understanding of homeopathy

Following are the four working ‘examples’ hering used to demonstrate his observation that ‘Curative processes happen in a direction just reverse to disease processes’, and later considered as ‘Hering laws of direction of cure’:

In a genuine curative process,

Symptoms should disappear in the reverse chronological order of their appearance in disease.
Symptoms should travel from internal parts of body to external parts
Symptoms should travel from more vital organs to less vital organs.
Symptoms should travel from ‘upper’ parts of the body to ‘lower’ parts.
According to those who consider these as the ‘fundamental law of cure’, any drug effect that happen not in accordance with above laws are ‘suppressive’, and hence not ‘curative’.

‘Disease processes and curative processes always happen in reverse directions’ is the fundamental observation hering actually tried to establish regarding ‘directions of disease and cure’.

According to hering’s observation, natural disease processes always advances from lower parts of the body to upper parts, from less vital to more vital organs and from external to internal organs. More over, all these disease processes advance in a chronological order.

Logically, Hering’s observations only mean that “all genuine ‘curative processes’ should happen in a direction just reverse to disease processes”.

Except those diseases which are purely due to errors in genetic substances, and those diseases which are due to genuine deficiency of building materials of biological molecules, all other diseases are considered to be caused by ‘molecular inhibitions’. Pathogenic molecules of endogenous or exogenous origin bind to some biological molecules in the organism, causing ‘molecular inhibitions’ which lead to pathological derangement in associated biochemical pathways. These pathogenic molecules may be of infectious, environmental, nutritional, metabolic, drug-induced, miasmatic or any other origin. Derangements in biochemical pathways are expressed through diverse groups of subjective and objective symptoms. This is the fundamental biochemistry of pathology.

To sum up, Hering’s observations regarding a ‘directions of disease and cure’ is a valuable one, but it should be studied in the light of modern biochemistry.

‘Curative processes happen in a direction just reverse to disease processes”- that is the sum total of Hering’s observations regarding ‘directions of cure’.

Vijaykar totally failed to comprehend the biochemistry involved in homeopathic therapeutics, and hence could not interpret the ‘directions of disease and cure’ in relation with the interactions of biochemical pathways. In the absence of essential scientific knowledge, he only tried to make his theories appear ‘scientific’ by utilizing some terms from embryology and genetics. Playing with scientific vocabulary, he was successful in marketing his theories well among the ‘science-starved’ sections of homeopathic community.

A Young homeopath says:

“I want to suggest to every Homoeopathic physician and students that you should never follow or read any local or new writers book, you could misguided from real things, always prefer original stalwart Homoeopath’s book. Like- Hahnemann,Kent,Nash, Vermulian, Tyler, Boerick, Allen, Farrington, N.M.Chaudhory,etc.”

Never “READ” any “NEW WRITERS”? For fear of “getting misguided”? No need of any updating? Nice advice!

————————————————————————————–

Let me quote from PREDICTIVE HOMOEOPATHY – PART II – THEORY OF ACUTES by Dr. Prafull Vijayakar:

“The mixture prescribers and single remedy similimum prescribers both may disagree with the pattern forwarded by me of Activity-Thermal-Thirst-Mental Axis. But then I have found this axis covering the holistic concept. The remedy thus evolved is a representative of one of each of the constituents that man is made up of. Man as we all know is a part of the Universe and is made up of five essential elements or the ‘Panchatatva’ which is accepted by Hindus, Chinese, Buddhists, Judaists and Mohammedans alike.

These five elements are: Fire, Water, Air, Earth and Ether.
Ether represents the cosmic energy which is all-pervading and which controls the activities of this universe as well as the activities of man. The Activity-Thermal-Thirst Axis based similimum is a true representative of the holistic man since the Activity represents Ether, the Thermals i.e. the heat regulatory mechanism of the body represents Fire, and Thirst which controls the osmolality i.e. water content of the body represents Water.
This covers three of the five essential elements which each human being is made up of. To this we add either a symptom from air (mind) or earth (body). This covers the man as a whole. So, the drug prescribed has a representative from each of the elements and hence works holistically to give miraculous cures in incurable or advanced or serious cases with minimum effort. Above all, Hering’s Law of Cure can also be observed in such cures. We will discuss more about it in my forthcoming book-The Theory of Chronic Diseases”

I have quoted this passage from the concludind part of a book by a person known to be a “scientific trend-setter” in modern homeopathy. (PREDICTIVE HOMOEOPATHY – PART II – THEORY OF ACUTES by Dr. Prafull Vijayakar)

This is a monumental example of presenting homeopathy in the most confusing and unscientific way, in the guise of SCIENTIFIC HOMEOPATHY. We should realize that this type of pseudo-scientific metaphysical theorizations contribute a lot in making homeopathy a subject of un-ending mockery before the scientific community.

Dr. Vijaykar claims: “The remedy thus evolved is a representative of one of each of the constituents that man is made up of. Man as we all know is a part of the Universe and is made up of five essential elements or the ‘Panchatatva’ which is accepted by Hindus, Chinese, Buddhists, Judaists and Mohammedans alike.”

I wonder whether Dr. Vijaykar is talking about medical science or religion! These theorizations may be “accepted by Hindus, Chinese, Buddhists, Judaists and Mohammedans alike”.

But is it accepted by scientific community?

Where did Dr. Samuel Hahnemann indicate that “similimum” should “cover all the five essential elements which each human being is made up of”, such as “Fire, Water, Air, Earth and Ether” in order it to be a “holistic” prescription?

How can my learned friend claim all these to be “CARDINAL PRINCIPLES” of homeopathy”?

ACTIVITY represents the ETHER? BODY represents EARTH? MIND represents Air? HEAT regulation represents FIRE? THIRST represents WATER?

This is the understanding of Dr Vijaykar regarding PANCHTATVA concept. SIMILIMUM is the drug that covers the SYMPTOMS representing these FIVE TATVAS. SIMPLE! This is the SCIENCE of homeopathy, according to a man calling himself EINSTEIN OF HOMEOPATHY!

DR. VIJAYKAR, ARE WE DISCUSSING “MEDICAL SCIENCE” OR “MYSTIC PHILOSOPHY”?

——————————————————————————————-

I want to know from those who have “read Vijayakar books” and “understood this great homeopath”, what Dr vijayakar explained regarding the ACTIVE PRINCIPLES of potentized drugs, and the exact BIOLOGICAL MECHANISM by which they act upon the body. Anybody, please?

——————————————————————————————-

A follower of PREDICTIVE HOMEOPATHY posted on our group:

“Dr. Vijayakar has correlated the law of cure with embryological development of human being and this has made the law of cure crystal clear. He has elicited exactly which organ is more important and which is less, a question that has baffled homoeopaths since ages.”

Sir, you said “Dr. Vijayakar has correlated the law of cure with embryological development of human being and this has made the law of cure crystal clear”

After reading his works, what I got is, he correlated “laws of directions of cure” with “embryological development”. LAW OF CURE in homeopathy is not ” “laws of directions of cure” – it is ‘similia similibus curentur’. Did Vijayakar anywhere explain SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURENTUR “correlating” it with “embryological development”? I fear you misunderstood Vijayakar. You also confused between “law of cure” and “law of direction of cure”. Hahnemann only talked about “law of cure”. “Law of direction of cure” was invented later by somebody else and ascribed its parentage to hering. Hope you would explain.

You have also raised “miasms” also to the status of “law of cure”, which does not agree with hahnemann’s postulates. No where hahnemann said MIASM is part of “law of cure”.

A CASE OF FRIGIDITY AND FUNCTIONAL INFERTILITY CURED USING MAG CARB 30:

A 29 year old lady and her husband, married since 4 years came to me saying that their marriage is at the verge of a break down, as the lady has no sexual desire. She said she is helpless, as her aversion is not intentional. “I feel nothing”, she confessed. She did not conceive yet.

She had a troublesome dysmenorrhoea since puberty. It was dragging or bearing down type of pain like labor pain, it was violent during menses. All her complaints aggravate during menses. She had a persistent watery leucorrhoea. Menstrual blood was black in color. Violent itching in genital region after menses is over.

She appeared very talkative. Becomes irritated without any reason. Becomes angry even when any question is asked while she is talking. Extremely anxious during night. Chilly patient. Desire everything warm.

Following rubrics were selected:

[Kent]Genitalia – Female : MENSES : Painful, dysmenorrhoea
[Kent]Abdomen : PAIN : Dragging, Bearing Down : Inguinal region : Menses : During
[Kent]Genitalia – Female : DESIRE : Diminished
[Kent]Genitalia – Female : ITCHING : Menses : After
[Kent]Genitalia – Female : LEUCORRHOEA : Thin, watery
[Kent]Genitalia – Female : MENSES : Black
[Kent]Mind : ANXIETY : Night
[Kent]Mind : IRRITABILITY
[Kent]Mind : LOQUACITY
[Kent]Generalities : COLD REMEDIES (Gibson Miller’s)
[Kent]Generalities : MENSES : During

Case was repertorised using different repertorization methods available in Similimum Ultra Software. MAG CARB was selected as ONLY similimum. Mag Carb 30 was given BDS continuously for a period, until her troublesome dysmenorrhoea disappered by about one month. Her menses became regular and normal, and to the great relief of the couple, she gradually became sexually responsive and active. By six months, she became pregnant, and now their son is two years old. The couple is very happy and full of gratitude for homeopathy.

This case demonstrates the success of CLASSICAL methods case analysis and repertorization by TOTALITY approach, using MENTALS, PHYSICAL GENERALS and PARTICULARS.

Homeopaths cannot become scientific physicians, unless they understand and accept LIFE as a MATERIAL phenomenon. Then only they can understand and accept a scientific explanation of homeopathy. Without understanding LIFE as a MATERIAL phenomenon, we cannot perceive Health, Disease, Medicines, Cure and ‘Similia Similibus Curentur’ from a scientific angle.

LIFE should be understood as a complex SYSTEM of BIOCHEMICAL PROCESSES, involving pathways of absorption, transportation, interactions, conversions, synthesis and lysis of different chemical molecules, as well as generation and utilization of chemical energy required for these processes

Human beings represent the highest form of living organism evolved on earth. LIFE is a phenomenon that came into existence through millions of years-long evolution of matter in this universe, attaining different levels of organizational and functional forms. By the term ‘living organism’, we indicate a material system with a specific quantity, quality, structure and functions of its own, which is capable of self-controlled growth and reproduction of its progeny, by accepting matter and energy from its environment. The phenomenon of life exists through a continuous chain of highly complex biochemical interactions which control each other, depend up on each other and are determined by each other. A living organism is composed of same elemental materials we see also in non-living forms of matter around us. Same time, these elemental materials are organized in living organisms in a far complex, systematic and superior way than they exist in non-living world, which contributes its structural organization and functional complexity. Complex chemical molecules known as ‘biological molecules’ found only in living organisms are now successfully synthesized in laboratories using simpler chemical molecules obtained from non-living objects, which proves that biological molecules are actually the same matter that exists also as non-living objects, only difference being that they are organized in a different complex way.

Primary forces, sub-atomic particles, elementary atoms, simple chemical molecules, complex inorganic molecules, carbon containing organic molecules, bio-molecules, complex bio-polymers, RNA-DNA-Protein structures, organelles, unicellular organisms, multi-cellular organisms, diverse species of plants and animals, and ultimately Homo Sapiens- these are the prominent milestones in the known evolutionary ladder of MATTER on earth, panning through millions and millions of years. Parallel to this biological evolution, we can perceive a systematic evolution and perfection of the nervous system also. Simple forms of conditioned reflexes that existed in primitive forms of life, gradually evolved into nerve cells, neural networks and ultimately into a well organized nervous system in higher animals. In higher forms of life such as humans, this nervous system has attained such a structural and functional perfection that human brain and its diverse faculties have begun playing a decisive role even in the existence and development of that species and even life on earth itself. A living organism can exist only through a continuous interaction with its environment. There is an unceasing flow of matter and energy in both directions, between internal and external environments of the organism. Metabolism, or ‘life process’ is the term used to describe the sum total of this flow. The moment this bi-directional flow of matter and energy ceases, the organism can no longer exist.

A living organism is distinguished from other non-living forms of matter by certain fundamental features such as: high level of structural organization, the ability to convert and utilize energy, continuous material exchange with environment, self regulation of chemical transformations, and, reproduction or transfer of hereditary information. A state of disease may ensue when any of the bio-chemic channels governing these fundamental factors of life are disturbed. Obviously, it is impossible to make a scientific study of pathology and therapeutics without an understanding of these subjects.

BIOCHEMISTRY or Biological Chemistry, is the study of CHEMICAL molecules and their interactions within and relating to, living organisms. Biochemical processes cause the complexity of life by controlling flow of information through biochemical signaling, and the flow of chemical energy through metabolism. Modern biochemistry has become so successful at explaining living processes that now almost all areas of the life sciences are engaged in biochemical research. Main focus of modern biochemistry is in understanding how biological molecules give rise to the processes that occur within living cells, which in turn relates greatly to the study and understanding of the phenomenon we call LIFE.

GENETICS and Molecular Biology, the study of the molecular mechanisms by which genetic information encoded in DNA is able to result in the processes of life, are actually part of BIOCHEMISTRY. Molecular biology can be interpreted as a branch of biochemistry, or biochemistry as a tool with which to investigate and study molecular biology.

Biochemistry deals with the study of structures, functions and interactions of biological macromolecules, such as PROTEINS, NUCLEIC ACID, CARBOHYDRATES and LIPIDS, which provide the structure of cells and perform many of the functions associated with life.

The chemistry of the cell also depends on the reactions of SMALL MOLECULES and IONS. These can be inorganic, for example WATER and METAL IONS, or organic, for example the AMINO ACIDS, which are used to synthesize proteins. The mechanisms by which cells harness energy from their environment via chemical reactions are known as metabolism.
Around two dozen of the 92 naturally occurring chemical elements are essential to various kinds of biological life. Most rare elements on Earth except selenium and iodine are not needed by, while a few common ones such as aluminum and titanium are not used at all. Ocean algae use bromine, but land plants and animals seem to need none. All animals require sodium, but some plants do not. Plants need boron and silicon, but animals may not, or may need only ultra-small amounts.

Just six elements—carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, calcium, and phosphorus—make up almost 99% of the mass of a human body. In addition to the six major elements that compose most of the human body, humans require smaller amounts of possibly 18 more. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium. All are necessary to life. The remaining elements are TRACE ELEMENTS, of which more than a dozen are thought to be necessary for life, or play a role in good health..

The four main classes of molecules in biochemistry are PROTEINS, NUCLEIC ACID, CARBOHYDRATES and LIPIDS. Carbohydrates are made from monomers called MONOSACCHARIDES. LIPIDS are usually made from one molecule of GLYCEROL combined with other molecules. PROTEINS are very large molecules – macro-biopolymers – made from monomers called amino acids. NUCLEIC ACIDS are the molecules that make up DNA, an extremely important substance that all cellular organisms use to store their genetic information. Their monomers are called NUCLEOTIDES.

How much our prejudiced, egotic and narrow-minded ‘seniors’ and ‘authorities’ ignore, despise, attack or belittle MIT CONCEPTS of homeopathy, nobody can halt its advance to final victory- because it is TRUTH, and it is SCIENCE. Future of homeopathy will be determined by MIT.

——————————————————————————–

Please do not quote ORGANON or MASTER’S WORDS to counter or disprove scientific arguments. What hahnemann said or not said has no any relevance in proving or disproving anything in SCIENCE.

———————————————————————————–

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY AND THINK OVER:

Whether you are potentizing a single drug substance containing different types of chemical molecules, potentizing a MIXTURE of different drug substances, or MIXING different potentized drugs, the result will be almost the same. What you get will be a MIXTURE of different types of MOLECULAR IMPRINTS which act upon target molecules only as INDIVIDUAL units. Molecular imprinting can happen only as INDIVIDUAL molecules, and potentized drug can act only as INDIVIDUAL molecular imprints.

——————————————————————————————–

‘MIT’ IS ONLY AN ATTEMPT TO UPDATE HOMEOPATHY BY PROVIDING RATIONAL AND LOGICAL ANSWERS TO THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS, IN A WAY EXACTLY FITTING TO MODERN SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE:

1. WHAT IS LIFE?

2. WHAT IS DISEASE?

3. WHAT IS A DRUG AND HOW IT ACTS ON LIVING ORGANISM?

4. WHAT ARE SYMPTOMS?

5. WHAT IS CURE?

6. WHAT IS POTENTIZATION?

7. WHAT IS HOMEOPATHIC CURE?

8. WHAT IS MIASM?

“IN A WAY EXACTLY FITTING TO MODERN SCIENTIFIC KNOWLEDGE”- THAT MAKES MIT FUNDAMENTALLY DIFFERENT FROM ALL EXISTING EXPLANATIONS OF HOMEOPATHY

———————————————————————————–

Stand On The Issues Of ‘Combination Of Drugs’ And ‘Patenting Of Drugs’

1. I totally disagree with all attempts of patenting of existing homeopathic drugs or their combinations by individuals or organizations misusing the intellectual property laws.

2. I totally disagree with the use of ‘molecular forms of drugs’(crude drugs, potencies below Avogadro limit and mother tinctures) as single drugs or as combinations. I do not consider therapeutic application of ‘molecular’ forms of drugs as genuine homeopathy.

3. I think it permissible for ‘total cure’, to use combinations of ‘molecular imprinted’ forms (potencies above Avogadro limit- 12c and onwards) of two or more homeopathic drugs selected on the basis of analysis of totality of symptoms, miasmatic study and biochemical evaluation of the individual patient.

4. I think it is effective as palliatives to use ‘disease-specific’ combinations of ‘molecular imprinted’ forms (potencies above Avogadro limit- 12c and onwards) of two or more homeopathic drugs selected on the basis of common symptoms and biochemical evaluations of specific diseases. But such ‘disease-specific’ combinations will not offer ‘total cure’ for patients.

I am talking on the basis of my concepts of ‘molecular imprinting’ involved in potentization. I perceive all crude drugs as combinations of diverse types of constituent drug molecules. I perceive even the so called potentized ‘single’ drug as combinations of diverse types of individual drug molecules contained in the drug substance used for potentization.

My stand on this issue is based on my understanding of diseases as multitudes of pathological derangement in the organism, caused by diverse of types of molecular inhibitions caused by different types of pathogenic agents, and therapeutics involves the removal of those inhibitions using appropriate molecular imprints.

I am talking on the basis of my understanding of ‘similia similibus curentur’ as: “Pathological molecular inhibitions caused by specific pathogenic molecules and expressed through a certain group of subjective and objective symptoms, could be removed by applying ‘molecular imprints’ of drug molecules that could create similar molecular inhibitions and symptoms in a healthy organism when applied in crude form.

That makes the difference between my views and classical homeopathy. I know, homeopaths trained and experienced in classical homeopathy cannot agree with my views on this topic.

————————————————————————————————–

SCIENCE cannot be ‘limited’ to any particular book, individual or time. It grows infinitely. If some thing is ‘LIMITED’, it is not any way SCIENCE.

——————————————————————————————————–

It is possible to CURE even without “knowing ‘mechanism of action of remedy”. There are many phenomena around us, “mechanism of action” of which we could not so far explain. They will be explained gradually, as our knowledge advances. I find nothing wrong in it. That is the way human experience and knowledge grow.

The problem arises when homeopaths ‘make theories’ about ”mechanism of action’ ofsuch cures which they actually do not know. Especially when such ‘theories’ contradict even the basic premises of the scientific knowledge system. At that point, scientific-minded people will have to step in with a red card.

It is not a sin if you do not know some thing. But it is ridiculous if you know nothing and pretend to know everything!

———————————————————————————————

When anybody put forward some piece of unscientific ideas about homeopathy during discussions or private chats, and if I feel they should be settled through an open debate, I use to make a separate post about it on my wall or discussion groups. That is my way of combating unscientific ideas and promoting scientific ideas about homeopathy. I never tell the name of person who said it, or give any hints to his identity. I am not criticizing INDIVIDUALS. I am criticizing the WRONG IDEAS they propagate. Kindly do not take it as personal attacks. If I meant a personal attack, I would have mentioned their names. I only want to discuss about IDEAS- not about the PERSONS who proposed those ideas to me.

——————————————————————————————-

—————————————————————————————————-

I really wonder how a ‘learned’ homeopath, who got his degree after undergoing a 5+ years long course of study in a medical college after 12 years of schooling in science stream, could even imagine things such as “nux vomica molecule’, ‘nux vomica atom’ and ‘nux vomica energy’?

Can anybody, having the least minimum knowledge of basics of chemistry and physics that defines ‘molecules, atoms and energy’, talk about “nux molecule”, “nux atom” and “nux energy”? In which blunder worlds ‘these’ homeopaths are living?

———————————————————————————————–

A reputed senior homeopath, who even teaches other young homeopaths, argues with me:

“Crude nux vomica contains ‘nux molecules’. During potentization, they are divided into ‘nux atoms’. By potentizing higher, these ‘nux atoms’are converted into ‘nux energy’. High potencies of nux contains ‘dynamic energy’ of nux, which carry the ‘inherent’ medicinal properties and ‘personality’ of nux vomica tree”.

I just confessed ‘defeat’ and politely steped out. Ignorant people can defeat anybody with their superiority in ignorance!

——————————————————————————–

A young homeopath raised some criticisms about a prescription made by a senior homeopathic ‘physician’- with double post graduation- during a facebook discussion. The senior retorted by a message: “Tula me nantar Bagtos bosdike”. Eager to know what these words meant, I searched net for a translation. I got frozen with wonder and shame by knowing the meaning.

Education does not make people cultured and refined?

—————————————————————————————-

Medicinal property of any drug substance is related with its molecular level structure and chemical properties. Regarding potentized drugs which do not contain any drug molecules, their medicinal properties are ‘related’ with the the three-dimensional structure of MOLECULAR IMPRINTS they contain, which are supra-molecular nanocavities having conformations exactly complementary to the imprinted drug molecules.

————————————————————————————-

What is my ULTIMATE aim regarding HOMEOPATHY?

My ULTIMATE aim is to establish a scientific model for biological mechanism of homeopathic therapeutics, so that homeopathy will be proved and recognized as SCIENTIFIC MEDICAL SYSTEM not only by the homeopathic community, but the scientific community as a whole.

————————————————————————————–

I am 100% convinced about the correctness of MIT explanations of homeopathy on two reasons:

1. I can rationally explain anything and everything in homeopathy using MIT.

2. MIT fits well to modern scientific knowledge.

No loop holes left. I am confident.

————————————————————————————-

Some ‘classical’ ‘single drug’ prescribers seem to think that they can fool everybody. One among them says, he prescribes only ‘single’ drug ‘homeopathically’. Then he mixes 4 or 5 drugs in potentized form, and administer it ‘tds’ for long periods as ‘supplementary therapy’. According to him there is nothing wrong in using any number of potentized drugs mixed together as ‘supplementary therapy’. But he is very particular that such ‘mixed drugs’ should never be used ‘homeopathically’, as it is against ‘fundamentals’ of homeopathy! He imagines, drugs act upon our body according to the ‘intentions’ of prescriber. If you use’ potentized drugs as ‘homeopathic’, it will act ‘homeopathically’. If you ‘use’ it as ‘supplementary’, it will act as ‘supplementary’!

Any fool thinks everybody except himself are fools!

————————————————————————————–

I know majority of homeopaths do not agreee with my ideas. It is your right to disagree, and I would honor it. But when you post your disagreements on my wall or pages, I would expect you to explain on WHAT specific points you disagree, and WHY you disagree. That is my right, and as a gentleman, you have to honor it also.

————————————————————————————

People tend to quote more from ‘masters’, when they actually did not understand what ‘masters’ really said!

—————————————————————————————-

I want to know what YOU actually UNDERSTAND about homeopathy- not ‘aphorisms’ or what ‘masters’ said about it. Everybody can read such things in text books. No quotes, please….

————————————————————————————–

No need of any confusions, friends- SIMILIMUM ULTRA SOFTWARE has nothing to do with the ideas proposed by MIT. It is only an innovative, user-friendly and low-cost clinical utility package for homeopaths, for doing successful homeopathic practice on a digital platform.

Similimum Ultra is purely a business venture of mine, even though a major portion of revenue generated by this business is currently utilized to support my research works on MIT.

I would prefer to say, SIMILIMUM ULTRA is my business, and MIT is my mission.

———————————————————————————

Answer me TWO fundamental questions:

1. According to your view, what are the ‘active principles’ of potentized drugs?

2. What is the ‘biological mechanism’ by which potentized drugs act and produce cure?

If you cannot give STRAIGHT FORWARD answers – be it right or wrong- for these questions, I do not think you are QUALIFIED to talk ‘theories’ about homeopathy. Excuse me.

——————————————————————————————–

MIT explanation of homeopathy fits well to the real-life experiences and basic principles of homeopathy on one end, and to the existing scientific knowledge system on the other end. That is why it appears so perfect and rational, capable of providing logical and scientific answers to any questions and explaining any phenomenon associated with homeopathy.

———————————————————————————————-

Pathogenic molecules are FAKE KEYS that block the BIOLOGICAL LOCKS or biological molecules, thereby preventing ORIGINAL KEYS or natural ligands to interact with their locks.

MOLECULAR IMPRINTS contained in potentized drugs are FAKE LOCKS that can mimic as original locks for the FAKE KEYS or pathogenic molecules. They bind to fake keys and prevent them from interacting with the BIOLOGICAL LOCKS. Normal interaction between BIOLOGICAL MOLECULES (LOCKS) and their original KEYS ( natural ligands) are re established. We call it HOMEOPATHIC CURE.

———————————————————————————————–

MOLECULAR IMPRINTS have a molecular conformation just opposite and complementary to the MOLECULES used for imprinting- exactly similar to a lock and its key.

Obviously, biological properties of molecular imprints will be just opposite to those of their original molecules. If drug molecules can produce certain molecular errors and symptoms in a living organism, molecular imprints of those drug molecules can remove those molecular errors and symptoms.

More over, all MOLECULES having similar functional groups can produce SIMILAR molecular errors and similar symptoms in the organism. If symptoms of DISEASE appear SIMILAR to symptoms of a drug, that means, pathogenic molecules and drug molecules have similar functional groups, so that they could produce similar errors in the biological molecules.

MOLECULAR IMPRINTS of all molecules having similar functional groups can remove molecular errors and symptoms produced by all molecules having similar functional groups.

I have been keeping on explaining this biological mechanism of homeopathic cure for long now. I wonder why homeopaths hesitate or fail to understand this simple science involved in SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURENTUR!

—————————————————————————————-

I am trying to REBUILD homeopathy on a new, SCIENTIFIC foundation. You cannot rebuild something without DECONSTRUCTING it first.

Please do not confuse the word DECONSTRUCTION with DESTRUCTION or DEMOLITION.

DECONSTRUCTION and REBUILDING involves a ‘dialectic’ and creative process- not destructive. REBUILDING is done by using the ESSENTIAL parts of EXISTING structure itself, by re-arranging them, modifying them, fortifying them, remodeling them and renovating them. Discards only things that are outdated, weak and worn out in the existing structure. Once rebuilding is complete, the new structure will be a new avatar of old structure- more durable, more beautiful, more well-founded, more strong, and capable of withstanding any earthquakes and water floods.

There is no DESTRUCTION of any sort in this process of dialectic DECONSTRUCTION and REBUILDING of homeopathy!

——————————————————————————————–

If you think there remains nothing for you to learn from others, why should you participate discussions on my pages? Only to prove me wrong? Only to ‘teach’ me a lesson? I am ready and willing to learn from others, but only if they are ready and willing to learn from me also.

———————————————————————————————-

Homeopaths try to justify use of mother tinctures by saying that they do it “according to need of patient”.

What you mean by NEED OF THE PATIENT? Will you prescribe allopathic drugs if your patient “needs” it? What decides the “need”? Only the failure of physician to find an appropriate similimum that could be administered in ‘molecular imprints’ form! “Need” is decided by physicians eagerness to ‘show’ some results, in spite of his failure as a HOMEOPATH. It is obvious to everybody here, sir.

————————————————————————————

MOLECULAR IMPRINTS contained in potentized drugs act only upon PATHOGENIC molecules having conformational affinity. They cannot interfere in the normal biochemical interactions between biological molecules and their natural ligands. As such, “proving” with HIGH potencies is only a myth that have been made a cliche. No chance!

————————————————————————————-

Potentized drugs will not give any relief if the drug you selected was not indicated for the particular patient- means, if it does not contain at least some of the ‘molecular imprints’ the patient requires. But mother tinctures and and low potencies may give some ‘allopathic’ relief due to the presence of drug molecules in them, even if the drug was not ‘homeopathically’ indicated. That is why homeopaths use mother tinctures and low potencies and try to ‘show some results’, in order to mask their inefficiency in selecting appropriate homeopathic prescriptions.

—————————————————————————————-

There are many ‘classical homeopaths’ who prescribe a SINGLE dose of a WELL-SELECTED similimum in HIGH potency, without repeating it for months for fear of ‘aggravations’. They will give ‘biochemic tablets’ bds or tds instead of ‘placebo’, and give some mother tinctures or low potencies for giving relief of ACUTE complaints! If the patient is relieved by this MULTIPLE DRUG therapy, they will declare they have produced ‘miraculous cure’ using a SINGLE dose of a SINGLE drug in ULTRA HIGH dilution! They never reveal the details of mother tinctures and biochemics they used!

——————————————————————————————-

Using Mother Tinctures and Low Potencies(below 12c) Cannot be Considered As Genuine Homeopathic Practice

We know that many homeopathic practitioners prescribe plenty of mother tinctures and low potency preparations. They do very successful ‘practice’ also. But, I am a bit suspicious regarding the desirability of using mother tinctures and low potencies, especially in a routine way for long terms.

It may relieve some of the symptoms, of course. But such relief is allopathic- not homeopathic. Chances of emerging new pathological conditions really exist in such a treatment protocol.

We must not forget that the symptomatology provided in our materia medica give the list of symptoms that can be generated in healthy persons by the use of these drugs in crude form. Indiscriminate long-term use of mother tinctures containing plant enzymes, poisonous alkaloids, glycosides and various other phyto-chemical ingredients is an unpardonable crime even if it is done in the name of homeopathy. The drug molecules and ions contained in these tinctures might give temporary relief by nutritional supplementation, or competitive relationship to pathological molecules due to conformational affinity. But it is evident from their symptomatologies that those molecules and ions are capable of creating dangerous pathological molecular inhibitions in various bio-chemic channels in the organism. We should never forget that the subjective and objective symptoms provided in our material medica were created by the molecular deviations happened in healthy individuals during drug proving. Hence in my opinion, it is ideal to treat patients using potencies above 12c, which do not contain any trace of the drug molecules of the original drug. If our selection of drug is correct, there is no any chance of failure in such a protocol. Other wise, it will have to be considered as identical to Ayurveda, Allopathy or Herbal treatment. Those who indulge in excessive use of mother tinctures, without bothering about the constituent drug molecules and their adverse long term impacts on the organism, are more hazardous to human health than our allopathic counterparts. I humbly request them to think over.

From our materia medica works, it may be understoodthat most of those people who had participated in proving of Hydrastis Canadensis developed symptoms of gastric ulcer and hyperacidity along with many other deep seated pathological conditions. Doctors who administer large doses of Hydrastis Tincture to relive gastric symptoms as part of homoeopathic treatment should note this point . Of course, we may get temporary relief, bythe way of competitive relationships with pathological molecules, due to configurational similarity of drug molecules and pathological molecules. The prolonged use of Hydrasts Tincture not only produce the symptoms mentioned in the materia medica, but may even induce very serious genetic errors to happen. If hydrastis is the similimum forthe patient, it will be effective in high potencies. This is real homeopathy.

Please do not be provoked when I say that who give Passiflora for inducing sleep, Rauwolfia for lowering blood pressure and Syzijium for high blood sugar in their tincture form, are not practicing ideal Homeopathy even if they may be well-nown Homeopaths, producing results. No homeopath with some common sense, who had carefully read the material medica of Alfalfa will dare to prescribe it as tonics to improve the appetite and general health of innocent children. It is evident from its symptomatology that Alfalfais capable of producing diabetes, bulimia, and upsetting the normal functioning of kidneys.

We should remember that there was no exact knowledge regarding the long term evil effects of many drugs, when many of them were proved and their materia medica prepared. There was least knowledge about the genetic disorders they were likely to produce. It is found in Boecricke Materiamedica that Arsenic Bromide Mother Tincture is indicated for Diebetes. No physician with scientific awareness will even think of prescribing it today.Who will now dare to prescribe Ars iod 3x, Iodum 3x, Sulphur Q, or various compounds of Mercury and Lead only because they are found in our text books of Materia Medica?

We know of homeopaths who make their patients consume for prolonged periods, the mother tinctures of several drugs, including various patented combinations flooding the market in the name of Homeopathy. How can Homeopaths prescribe them without any prick of conscience? Those who love homoeopathy should take urgent initiative to prevent such tendencies either through awareness programs and campaigns, or through stringent laws.

How the mother tinctures differ from potentized drugs in their mechanism of therapeutic action, and why potentized drugs are more safe and effective than mother tinctures?

Not only potentized drugs, but mother tinctures and crude drugs also can act as ‘similimum’. But the molecular mechanisms of their therapeutic actions and ultimate outcome are fundamentally different from each other.

Drug molecules contained in mother tinctures and crude drugs ‘compete’ with pathogenic molecules having similar molecular configuration in binding to biological molecules and displace them, thereby relieving biological molecules from pathological inhibitions. By this ‘competitive’ relationship to pathogenic molecules, mother tinctures and crude drugs can act as similimum and produce therapeutic results.

‘Molecular imprints’ contained in potentized drugs act by an entirely different molecular mechanism. Molecular imprints binds directly to the pathogenic molecules having configurational affinity and deactivate them, thereby relieving biological molecules from pathological inhibitions. This is the molecular mechanism involved in the therapeutic action of potentized drugs.

Most notable difference is, drug molecules act as similimum by ‘competitive’ relationship toward pathogenic molecules, whereas ‘molecular imprints’ act by ‘complementary’ relationship.

Since crude drugs and mother tinctures contain drug molecules that can act upon biological molecules, they can also bind to various biological targets in the organism. Obviously, there is always chance for creation of new molecular inhibitions and drug-induced pathologies when we use crude drugs and mother tinctures. That is the draw back of using mother tinctures even if they are similimum.

Advantage of potentized drugs is that they do not contain any drug molecules, but only molecular imprints, which are only supra-molecular clusters of water and alcohol molecules. They can act upon pathogenic molecules only, not upon biological molecules. As such, potentized drugs cannot do any further harm to organism.

What will happen when SIMILIMUM is used in CRUDE forms or MOLECULAR forms? How their action will be different from that of potentized forms?

A drug is said to be similimum to a case when the SYMPTOMS produced by the disease in the patient is similar to the symptoms that drug could produce in a person without any disease. That means, the drug and the ‘disease-causing agents’ contain some ‘chemical molecules’ or ‘functional groups’ that are SIMILAR in conformations so that they could bind to SIMILAR molecular targets in the organism and produce SIMILAR molecular inhibitions that are expressed through SIMILAR subjective and objective symptoms.

When we apply MOLECULAR FORMS of similimum in the patient, drug molecules COMPETE with pathogenic molecules for binding to the SAME biological target molecules. According to the dynamics of biochemistry, such a competitive relationship of drug molecules and pathogenic molecules may result in the removal of inhibitions, if the affinity of drug molecules toward biological targets is higher than the affinity of pathogenic molecules. That means, CRUDE forms of SIMILIMUM may in certain instances CURE the disease by COMPETITIVE molecular mechanism.

It should be noted that the DRUG molecules cannot remove the molecular inhibitions if the they are overpowered by pathogenic molecules regarding their AFFINITY towards biological targets so that the COMPETITION is not effective. This fact explains why CRUDE forms of SIMILIMUM fail in curing the disease in most occasions.

Another point to be noted that the CRUDE drug substance contain diverse types of chemical molecules that can bind to various unexpected molecular targets in the organism and produce new molecular inhibitions in them. This fact explains the phenomena known as SIDE EFFECTS and BAD EFFECTS of drugs commonly experienced when using MOLECULAR FORMS of drug substances. That is why I keep on saying that using of mother tinctures and low potencies are undesirable and dangerous.

SIMILIMUM potentized above 12c contain no drug molecules, but only MOLECULAR IMPRINTS of drug molecules. When used as similimum, these molecular imprints act as ARTIFICIAL BINDING SITES or ARTIFICIAL LOCKS for the pathogenic molecules having similar functional groups. Due to this CONFORMATIONAL AFFINITY, they can selectively bind to the specific pathogenic molecules, and relieve the biological molecules from pathological inhibitions. This is the molecular mechanism involved in the therapeutic action of SIMILIMUM in potentized forms. Since they do not contain any chemical molecules other than water and ethyl alcohol, they cannot produce any unwanted molecular inhibitions or SIDE EFFECTS. That is why potentized drugs are said to be SAFE.

That is why we say only potentized drugs are GENUINE HOMEOPATHY, and safer than mother tinctures and molecular forms of drugs.

——————————————————————————————-

Whether a drug is allopathic or homeopathic is not actually determined by its label, manufacturer or the title of the physician who prescribed it. It is determined the ACTIVE PRINCIPLES they contain, and the BIOLOGICAL MECHANISM by which they act.

A drug is ALLOPATHIC, if it contains DRUG MOLECULES as active principles which act upon the organism by their chemical properties.

A drug is HOMEOPATHIC, if it contains only MOLECULAR IMPRINTS as active principles, and they act by functioning as ‘artificial binding sites’ for pathogenic molecules.

——————————————————————————————–

Remedy under a 12c or a 24x potency still contains the original molecules of the substance, and hence they act by a biological mechanism exactly similar to that of allopathic drugs, even if it is prescribed by a ‘homeopath’, or manufactured by a ‘homeopathic’ pharmacy.

If you are prescribing SIMILIMUM, there is no need of using it in ALLOPATHIC or MOLECULAR forms. If you are NOT using similimum, it is not HOMEOPATHY. To be genuine homeopathy, use SIMILIMUM, in potencies above 12c, which contain only MOLECULAR IMPRINTS.

—————————————————————————————-

Physical, chemical and medicinal properties of substances are based on their molecular constitution. We know, substances having same atomic constitution vary in physical, chemical and medicinal properties, if their ‘molecular’ level organizations are different. Both water and hydrogen peroxide contain hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms. But their ‘molecular’ level organization differ, which explain the difference in their physical, chemical and biological properties. Sugar and ethyl alcohol contain carbon, hydrogen and oxygen at atomic level. But their properties are different, due to their difference in molecular level organization.

If we have scientific outlook and a basic knowledge in modern science, we need not go to ‘dynamic’ interpretations to study the physical, chemical and biological properties of substances.

It is a very disappointing spectacle to see people we consider as ‘great’ homeopaths and ‘leading physicians’ groping in darkness when talking about matters that require some scientific knowledge. Hope they would spare some time in between their busy consultation hours also for updating themselves ! Otherwise, at least they should abstain from talking ‘theories’ that expose their ignorance, and in turn harm the scientific credentials of homeopathy as a whole.

—————————————————————————————

There is no PHYSICAL illness without a MENTAL aspect. There is no MENTAL illness without a PHYSICAL aspect. All ailments -including mental- involve some sort of MOLECULAR level errors happening some biochemical pathways in the organism, and hence are PHYSICAL. What we call MENTAL are functions of biomolecular interactions in BRAIN, which is part of the BODY. There is no a MIND without a BRAIN.

—————————————————————————————

HOMEOPATHS should not expect SCIENCE to travel backward to fit to HOMEOPATHY. HOMEOPATHY should travel 200+ years forward to make it fit to modern SCIENCE. I know, ‘classical homeopaths’ think otherwise.

It is not at all a hidden fact that I am the developer and marketer of a homeopathic software- SIMILIMUM ULTRA. It is explicitly stated in my profile info. I do its marketing online myself, and I am running a small company for that purpose- BOOMSOFT TECHNOLOGIES. Being a person retired from government job, my only source of revenue for supporting my research works at present is my software. Without SIMILIMUM ULTRA at my disposal as a reliable fund generator, it would have been impossible for me to take up my MIT research works without any outside help. If anybody thinks that being a ‘businessman’ disqualifies me from discussing the SCIENCE OF HOMEOPATHY, they are free to unfriend me at the earliest.

I have been involved in homeopathy from 1970 onward. Using homeopathic soft wares since 1990 when I first got introduced to the digital and cyber worlds.

I tried all the different soft wares available in market time to time, such as different versions of hompath, radar, cara etc. Gradually I was disillusioned by their unpredictable performance and poor clinical output, as well the hefty prices they charged for each upgrading. I started to think about approaching the issue from my own practical perspective, and making a homeopathic soft ware myself, incorporating the benefits of my long experience with homeopathy. My dedicated and painstaking works finally culminated in SIMILIMUM, and then a more elaborate SIMILIMUM ULTRA. I wanted to offer the profession a perfect clinical utility software that is more user friendly, accurate and cost-effective than all the currently available ones in the market.

SIMILIMUM ULTRA is presently used by thousands of homeopaths around world with great satisfaction. I am also satisfied with it, by all means.

We need AUTHENTIC well-documented cures produced under strict monitoring by impartial experts. Cases should be diagnosed and physical parameters of cure in each patient should be determined and mutually agreed upon by physician and a monitoring team, and well-documented by the monitoring experts before the case is entrusted to the homeopath for treatment. After the treatment is over, the physical parameters should be again recorded and compared with the original with mutual consent of physician and the monitors, and the cure should be finally authenticated by the monitoring team. Only such AUTHENTIC cures should be published as proof for homeopathic cure. I mean published homeopathic cures should be validated not by ‘peer-reviewing’, but by ‘peer-monitoring’, to be reliable and acceptable to the scientific community .

The term ENERGY has very specific meaning in modern science. First and foremost, it is MATERIAL. There cannot be any ENERGY not associated with MATTER particles in any form of their existence. ENERGY can exist and act only through MATTER. ENERGY is a form of existence of MATTER.

Unscientific ENERGY MEDICINE theoreticians of homeopathy are talking about ENERGY in an entirely different meaning. For them, energy is MATTER-LESS. Their ENERGY is ‘dynamic’, non-material’, ‘spirit-like and ‘conceptual’, existing without any form of matter! DYNAMIC HEALERS, SPIRITUAL HEALERS and OCCULT PRACTITIONERS also use the term in this meaning.
Conventional homeopaths use the term ENERGY in this unscientific sense, when explaining homeopathy in terms of VITAL FORCE and DYNAMIC DRUG ENERGY.

It makes a big difference between SCIENTIFIC and UNSCIENTIFIC approaches in homeopathy

—————————————————————————————

I have noticed one thing: A homeopath talks more about ‘vital force’ and ‘drug energy’ when he knows very little about biochemistry and bio-molecular processes involved in disease and cure. He will try to make himself appear more as a ‘classical homeopath’, and will desperately pretend to be a ‘true follower’ of master! He will talk more about ‘aphorisms’. He will fight tooth and nail to prove ‘science is unscientific’!

—————————————————————————————-

Only MIT explains homeopathy in SCIENTIFIC terms- POTENTIZATION is explained in terms of MOLECULAR IMPRINTING, and SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURENTUR is explained in terms of kinetics of BIOMOLECULAR interactions.

If you have no any idea about fundamentals of molecular imprinting and biomolecular interactions, MIT will appear for you only as a “complicated nonsense”! Update yourselves, please…

Our bones and cartilages are piezo-electric materials, which can generate electricity from pressure or vibrations. Most of us are not aware of such a piezo-electric power generation system constantly working in our body. This low voltage electric current is utilized by the body in the functioning of nerves, brain, endocrine glands and various vital organs, especially by secreting diverse types of chemical molecules known as endorphins. Vibrations created by sound waves coming from external sources as well as those produced by internal sound generating systems of our body are constantly generating very low voltage electric power. Piezo-electricity generated in our bones and cartilages play a major role in the feeling of stimulation, relaxation and pleasure sensations resulting from dancing, prayers, enchanting mantras, singing, rocking, massaging etc. What we call bio-magnetism, aura and bio-field are actually the effects of this biological electricity. There is nothing ‘immaterial’ or ‘mystic’ in these phenomena.

———————————————————————————–

According to unscientific CONVENTIONAL HOMEOPATHS, mind and emotions belong to the realm of VITAL FORCE, which is dynamic, immaterial, conceptual and spirit-like! MIND and VITAL FORCE can exist even without a material BODY!

According to MODERN SCIENCE, mind and emotions belong to the functions of complex biochemical interactions happening in central nervous system, which is MATERIAL. There is no MIND without BRAIN.

There lies the difference in approaches and outlooks of UNSCIENTIFIC homeopaths and SCIENTIFIC homeopaths.

“Homeopathy operates through subtlest hints which are sub-atomic”

I was shocked to see the above sentence on the banner page of a prominent ‘international’ homeopath’s website, who offers learning programs, online treatment, and claims to have published some ‘physiology’ books also.

Did anybody PROVE by any scientific methods that homeopathy “operates through subtlest hints which are sub-atomic”? Is it a scientific theory, hypothesis, or pure imagination?

Did hahnemannn ever say homeopathy operates through “sub atomic hints”? As far as ORGANON explains, hahnemann is of the opinion that homeopathy operates through “non-material, ‘spirit-like’, and ‘conceptual’ ‘dynamic energy’? Does ‘dynamic energy’ mean ‘sub-atomic hints’?

———————————————————————————

Published CURED CASES prove nothing in homeopathy. Thousands of ‘miraculous’ CURED CASES are reported by even those who promote HAIR TRANSMISSION, PHOTO TRANSMISSION, MP3 REMEDIES, WATER MEMORY REMEDIES, PAPER REMEDIES, DOWSING, REFLEXOLOGY etc etc.

Should we believe all those CURES are genuine, and accept them as PROOFS of efficacy of their methods and theories?

—————————————————————————–

AFTER READING THE FOLLOWING PASSAGES QUOTED FROM ORGANON, CAN YOU STILL ARGUE THAT EVERYTHING EXPLAINED IN ORGANON IS SCIENTIFIC?

Read Organon : Aphorism 11 : Sixth Edition: Foot Note:

“What is dynamic influence, – dynamic power? Our earth, by virtue of a hidden invisible energy, carries the moon around her in twenty-eight days and several hours, and the moon alternately, in definite fixed hours (deducting certain differences which occur with the full and new moon) raises our northern seas to flood tide and again correspondingly lowers them to ebb. Apparently this takes place not through material agencies, not through mechanical contrivances, as are used for products of human labor; and so we see numerous other events about us as results of the action of one substance on another substance without being able to recognize a sensible connection between cause and effect. Only the cultured, practised in comparison and deduction, can form for himself a kind of supra-sensual idea sufficient to keep all that is material or mechanical in his thoughts from such concepts. He calls such effects dynamic, virtual, that is, such as result from absolute, specific, pure energy and action of the one substance upon the other substance.

For instance, the dynamic effect of the sick-making influences upon healthy man, as well as the dynamic energy of the medicines upon the principle of life in the restoration of health is nothing else than infection and so not in any way material, not in any way mechanical. Just as the energy of a magnet attracting a piece of iron or steel is not material, not mechanical. One sees that the piece of iron is attracted by one pole of the magnet, but how it is done is not seen. This invisible energy of the magnet does not require mechanical (material) auxiliary means, hook or lever, to attract the iron. The magnet draws to itself and this acts upon the piece of iron or upon a steel needle by means of a purely immaterial invisible, conceptual, inherent energy, that is, dynamically, and communicates to the steel needle the magnetic energy equally invisibly (dynamically). The steel needle becomes itself magnetic, even at a distance when the magnet does not touch it, and magnetises other steel needles with the same magnetic property (dynamically) with which it had been endowered previously by the magnetic rod, just as a child with small-pox or measles communicates to a near, untouched healthy child in an invisible manner (dynamically) the small-pox or measles, that is, infects it at a distance without anything material from the infective child going or capable of going to the one to be infected. A purely specific conceptual influence communicated to the near child small-pox or measles in the same way as the magnet communicated to the near needle the magnetic property.

In a similar way, the effect of medicines upon living man is to be judged. Substances, which are used as medicines, are medicines only in so far as they possess each its own specific energy to alter the well-being of man through dynamic, conceptual influence, by means of the living sensory fibre, upon the conceptual controlling principle of life. The medicinal property of those material substances which we call medicines proper, relates only to their energy to call out alterations in the well-being of animal life. Only upon this conceptual principle of life, depends their medicinal health-altering, conceptual (dynamic) influence. Just as the nearness of a magnetic pole can communicate only magnetic energy to the steel (namely, by a kind of infection) but cannot commu nicate other properties (for instance, more hardness or ductility, etc.). And thus every special medicinal substance alters through a kind of infection, that well-being of man in a peculiar manner exclusively its own and not in a manner peculiar to another medicine, as certainly as the nearness of the child ill with small-pox will communicate to a healthy child only small-pox and not measles. These medicines act upon our well-being wholly without communication of material parts of the medicinal substances, thus dynamically, as if through infection. Far more healing energy is expressed in a case in point by the smallest dose of the best dynamized medicines, in which there can be, according to calculation, only so little of material substance that its minuteness cannot be thought and conceived by the best arithmetical mind, than by large doses of the same medicine in substance. That smallest dose can therefore contain almost entirely only the pure, freely-developed, conceptual medicinal energy, and bring about only dynamically such great effects as can never be reached by the crude medicinal substances itself taken in large doses.

It is not in the corporal atoms of these highly dynamized medicines, nor their physical or mathematical surfaces (with which the higher energies of the dynamized medicines are being interpreted but vainly as still sufficiently material) that the medicinal energy is found. More likely, there lies invisible in the moistened globule or in its solution, an unveiled, liberated, specific, medicinal force contained in the medicinal substance which acts dynamically by contact with the living animal fibre upon the whole organism (without communicating to it anything material however highly attenuated) and acts more strongly the more free and more immaterial the energy has become through the dynamization.

Is it then so utterly impossible for our age celebrated for its wealth in clear thinkers to think of dynamic energy as something non-corporeal, since we see daily phenomena which cannot be explained in any other manner? If one looks upon something nauseous and becomes inclined to vomit, did a material emetic come into his stomach which compels him to this anti-peristaltic movement? Was it not solely the dynamic effect of the nauseating aspect upon his imagination? And if one raises his arm, does it occur through a material visible instrument? a lever? Is it not solely the conceptual dynamic energy of his will which raises it?”

Explanations hahnemann provide for his concept of DYNAMIC DRUG ENERGY quoted above clearly demonstrate the infantile state of scientific knowledge available to him, obviously due to the limitations of historical context he lived in:

Note the following points carefully:

” If one looks upon something nauseous and becomes inclined to vomit, did a material emetic come into his stomach which compels him to this anti-peristaltic movement? Was it not solely the dynamic effect of the nauseating aspect upon his imagination?”

” if one raises his arm, does it occur through a material visible instrument? a lever? Is it not solely the conceptual dynamic energy of his will which raises it?”

” Our earth, by virtue of a hidden invisible energy, carries the moon around her in twenty-eight days and several hours, and the moon alternately, in definite fixed hours (deducting certain differences which occur with the full and new moon) raises our northern seas to flood tide and again correspondingly lowers them to ebb. Apparently this takes place not through material agencies, not through mechanical contrivances”

“we see numerous other events about us as results of the action of one substance on another substance without being able to recognize a sensible connection between cause and effect”

“dynamic effect of the sick-making influences upon healthy man, as well as the dynamic energy of the medicines upon the principle of life in the restoration of health is nothing else than infection and so not in any way material, not in any way mechanical”

“Just as the energy of a magnet attracting a piece of iron or steel is not material, not mechanical”

“One sees that the piece of iron is attracted by one pole of the magnet, but how it is done is not seen.”

” This invisible energy of the magnet does not require mechanical (material) auxiliary means, hook or lever, to attract the iron. The magnet draws to itself and this acts upon the piece of iron or upon a steel needle by means of a purely immaterial invisible, conceptual, inherent energy, that is, dynamically, and communicates to the steel needle the magnetic energy equally invisibly (dynamically).”

” The steel needle becomes itself magnetic, even at a distance when the magnet does not touch it, and magnetises other steel needles with the same magnetic property (dynamically) with which it had been endowered previously by the magnetic rod”

” a child with small-pox or measles communicates to a near, untouched healthy child in an invisible manner (dynamically) the small-pox or measles, that is, infects it at a distance without anything material from the infective child going or capable of going to the one to be infected”

” A purely specific conceptual influence communicated to the near child small-pox or measles in the same way as the magnet communicated to the near needle the magnetic property.”

” Substances, which are used as medicines, are medicines only in so far as they possess each its own specific energy to alter the well-being of man through dynamic, conceptual influence, by means of the living sensory fibre, upon the conceptual controlling principle of life.”

” The medicinal property of those material substances which we call medicines proper, relates only to their energy to call out alterations in the well-being of animal life. Only upon this conceptual principle of life, depends their medicinal health-altering, conceptual (dynamic) influence.”

Please note hahnemann’s statement (from Organon : Aphorism 11 : Sixth Edition: Foot Note) carefully:

“think of dynamic energy as something non-corporeal, since we see daily phenomena which cannot be explained in any other manner”.

IT AMOUNTS TO A HUMBLE CONFESSION BY THE MASTER:

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain how limbs are raised at will- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain why people get nauseated by seeing others vomit- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain how measles and chicken pox are transmitted- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain why earth revolves around sun- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain the phenomena of high and low ebbsl- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain how a magnet attracts an iron needle- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain how a steel needle gets magnetized in the vicinity of a magnet – and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain the phenomenon of LIFE – and hence, he explained it using VITAL FORCE and DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain DISEASE and CURE- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain SYMPTOMS and DRUG PROVING- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain how substances get medicinal property- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain how potentization really worksl- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

Hahnemann could not scientifically explain how potentized drugs act- and hence, he explained it using DYNAMIC ENERGY.

THE TRUTH IS OBVIOUS: HAHNEMANN WAS COMPELLED TO ‘THINK’ ABOUT A ‘NON-CORPOREAL’ ‘DYNAMIC ENERGY’, ONLY BECAUSE HE SAW MANY DAILY PHENOMENA WHICH HE COULD NOT EXPLAIN IN “ANY OTHER MANNER”‘

————————————————————————————-

What is exactly meant by ‘VITAL FORCE’? This word comes from the metaphysical philosophy of ‘dynamism’. Dynamism is a metaphysical concept conceived by Gottfried Leibniz (1646–1716) and developed into a full system of cosmology, totally unacceptable to modern science and scientific method. Dynamism in metaphysical cosmology explains the material world in terms of active, point like forces, with noextension but with action at a distance. Dynamism describes that which exists as simple elements, or for Leibniz, monads, and groups of elements which have only the essence of forces.

According to ‘dynamic’ view, interaction between elements takes place without contact, through modes or even harmonics of motion, yielding all phenomena in the Universe.

Various treatments of Dynamism can be found in the works of Baruch Spinoza and Henri Bergson, and also, long before them, Parmenides, the Atomists, and Plotinus. In more contemporary works, elements of Dynamism also developed into process philosophy, via Alfred North Whitehead and others, as well as systems theory via Ludwig von Bertalanffy and William Ross Ashby. Immanuel Kant was another philosopher who helped the development of the theory of dynamism.

Hahnemann’s explanations of homeopathy in terms of VITAL FORCE were obviously influenced by the philosophy of ‘dynamism’. Modern proponents of ‘energy medicine’ theories also explain homeopathy on the basis of concepts of ‘dynamism’.

‘Forces’ existing free from matter, and ‘matter acting at distances without any material contact or interaction’ is an idea very dear to all practitioners of occult healing arts. The idea of a ‘medicinal force’ that can be ‘freed’ from drug substance, and ‘transferred’ to water of sugar of milk, that can act on organism in ‘dynamic way’- all these come from ‘dynamism’.

Without freeing homeopathy from the influence of ‘dynamism’ and VITAL FORCE, we cannot hope it to be accepted as a scientific medical system.

———————————————————————————————-

The concept of ‘VITAL FORCE’ has nothing to do the concept of ‘force’ in modern science.

In modern science, ‘force’ exist and act as a function of ‘matter’. There is no ‘force’ without matter. ‘Force’ acts through carrier particle. Actually, force particles are minute forms of matter itself. There are ‘four’ fundamental forces in nature- strong force, weak force, electromagnetic force and gravitational force. All these four fundamental forces exist and interact though carrier particles of specific qyantum states. Exactly, all these four fundamentel forces are different quantum states of same force, which is the ‘motion’ associated with ‘matter’. There is no ‘matter’ without ‘motion’, or motion without matter. Matter exists in motion, and motion is form of existence of matter. Motion is expressed as ‘space’, and ‘matter’ is expressed as ‘mass’. There is no ‘mass’ without ‘space’, or ‘space’ without ‘mass’.

According to dynamism, ‘force’ exists and interacts free from matter or space. Dynamic drug energy can exist free from drug substance. Drug force can act from a distance, without any ‘material’ involvement.
As per scientific world outlook, any object in this universe represents a dynamic equilibrium of matter particles and force particles in a particular ratio. The term ‘energy’ is used to refer to the quantity of ‘force particles’ contained in an object higher than required to maintain its ‘matter-force’ equilibrium, and hence, could be transferred to other objects, making them to ‘move’ or ‘do work’. Matter particles that carry very high ‘extra’ quantity of ‘force particles’ are known as ‘energy particles’.

According to these people, drug substances are ‘converted’ to ‘energy’ and ‘transferred’ to rectified spirit or sugar of milk during potentization. And this ‘dynamic drug energy’ acts upon the vital force to effect a cure.
Mechanical energy applied during trituations may break the intermolecular bonds in the drug substances, and they would be divided maximum up to the level of constituent molecules and ions. Further division to atomic level will not happen, since nobody can generate such a high amount of energy by ‘trituration’ to break the very strong chemical bonds between atoms inside molecules. Imagining about ‘conversion’ of matter into energy by potentization reflects utter ignorance of fundamentals of physics.

More over, medicinal properties of a substance is decided by the structure and chemical properties of constituent molecules of that drug substance. If those molecules were divided further into atoms or subatomic particles as some people imagine, the medicinal properties would have been lost.
For example, the medicinal properties of nux vomica is based on the structure and properties of various chemical molecules contained in it, such as strychnine, brucine etc. Strychnine is C21H22N2O2. Brucine is C23H26N2O4. If these molecules were divided into atomic level during trituration or potentization, there will be only carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen remaining. Both strychnine and brucine contain same atoms. It is the difference in their stuctural level oranaization that give them different chemical and medicinal properties. If substances are divided into atoms during potentization, potentized brucine and strychnine will not differ in medicinal properties, since both of them contain same atoms.

Logically, there is only a single way by which the medicinal properties of complex drug molecules could be transeferred to medium during potentization. It is ‘molecular imprinting. Individual molecules and ions being part of the drug substance are subjected to molecular imprinting during potentization. These ‘molecular imprints’ of drug molecules are the exact active principles of potentized drugs, which act as therapeutic agents by binding to pathogenic molecules and thereby removing molecular inhibitions.

There is no such a thing called ‘drug energy’ that can be liberated from drug substances and ‘transferred’ to another medium abandoning the drug substances. Medicinal properties of substances come from the ‘structure’ of individual constituent molecules contained in drug substances. In the absence of ‘drug molecules’, there cannot be any ‘drug energy’. During potentization, through the process of molecular imprinting, the supramolecular structure of water is changed, and it is this ‘changed water’ or molecular imprints that act as therapeutic agents. It has nothing to do with ‘liberation’ or ‘transfer’ of drug energy. Only molecular imprinting.

In his eagerness to prove “science is unscientific” and “vital force is scientific”, our ‘SENIOR’ and ‘EXPERIENCED’ homeopath says my explanations of LIFE PROCESSES in terms of existing knowledge of BIOCHEMISTRY “does not have any proof, and it is just a HYPOTHESIS- IT does no t have any proof, so it is UNSCIENTIFIC”!

It is great to know his learned verdict that my explanation of LIFE in terms of biochemistry is UNSCIENTIFIC. Would he me know, what is his learned verdict on HOMEOPATHY- is it SCIENTIFIC or UNSCIENTIFIC? What about VITAL FORCE? Is it SCIENTIFIC or UNSCIENTIFIC? Is APHORISMS of ORGANON scientific or unscientific? All these things are scientifically PROVED?

————————————————————————————-

Even if you ‘think” there is a ‘vital force” existing ‘beyond vital processes’, which “control and perform the interaction among such molecules” from behind, anybody has the right to “think” anything as you like. But such “thinking” has no place on a dialogue on MEDICAL SCIENCE. MEDICAL SCIENCE examines and handles VITAL PROCESSES in terms of BIOCHEMISTRY- not VITAL FORCE.

—————————————————————————————

I am discussing MEDICAL SCIENCE here, MEDICAL SCIENCE studies VITAL PROCESSES in terms of BIOCHEMISTRY and BIO-MOLECULAR INTERACTIONS.

The question “what is the difference between matter and life or organism” was answered many times earlier on this pages. I am quoting it again. It ma not agree with your VITAL FORCE perspective. You are free to agree or disagree.

By the term ‘living organism’, we indicate a material system with a specific quantity, quality, structure and functions of its own, which is capable of self-controlled growth and reproduction of its progeny, by accepting matter and energy from its environment. The phenomenon of life exists through a continuous chain of highly complex biochemical interactions which control each other, depend up on each other and are determined by each other. A ‘living organism’ represents a much higher and advanced level of existence of the same elements of matter we meet in the inorganic world, different only in its structural organization and functional complexity. The universal phenomenon of material motion we find as part of primary existence of matter itself, attains the wonderful qualities of life, due to this complex structural organization. In fact, ‘life’ is the result of a continuous evolutionary process of primary matter in this universe through millions of years, attaining different levels of organizational and functional forms. Primary forces, sub-atomic particles, elementary atoms, simple chemical molecules, complex inorganic molecules, carbon containing organic molecules, bio-molecules, complex bio-polymers, RNA-DNA-Protein structures, organelles, unicellular organisms, multi-cellular organisms, diverse species of plants and animals, and ultimately Homo Sapiens- these are the prominent milestones in the known evolutionary ladder on earth, panning through millions and millions of years. Human beings represents the highest form of this material evolutionary history on earth, as far as it is known to us. Parallel to this biological evolution, we can perceive a systematic evolution and perfection of the nervous system also. Simple forms of conditioned reflexes that existed in primitive organisms, gradually evolved into nerve cells, neural networks and ultimately into a well organized nervous system in higher animals. In higher forms of life such as humans, this nervous system has attained such a structural and functional perfection that human brain and its diverse faculties have begun playing a decisive role even in the existence and development of that species and even life on earth itself. Of course, collective labor, language and social relations also played a major role in this evolutionary process.

A living organism can exist only through a continuous interaction with its environment. There is an unceasing flow of matter and energy in both directions, between internal and external environments of the organism. Metabolism, or ‘life process’ is the term used to describe the sum total of this flow. The moment this bi-directional flow of matter and energy ceases, the organism can no longer exist.

Complex bio-molecules which participate in the diverse chemical processes of life are broadly classified into four major groups: Proteins, Carbohydrates, Lipids and Nucleic Acids. These are polymers of simple chemical components or sub units, called monomers. The monomers of proteins are amino acids, and those of carbohydrates are monosaccharides. Lipids are polymers of fatty acids. The monomers of Nucleic acids are known as nulcleotides. These bio-molecules are considered to be the building blocks of life on earth, and are never seen in the non-living world. These bio-molecules, with their highly complex structure and organization, interact each other in the organism through hundreds of bio-chemic pathways, collectively called ‘vital processes’”.

Please note: A ‘living organism’ represents a much higher and advanced level of existence of the same elements of matter we meet in the inorganic world, different only in its structural organization and functional complexity. The universal phenomenon of material motion we find as part of primary existence of matter itself, attains the wonderful qualities of life, due to this complex structural organization. In fact, ‘life’ is the result of a continuous evolutionary process of primary matter in this universe through millions of years, attaining different levels of organizational and functional forms.”

Difference between “matter and life” is explained as I could understand it in the light of my world outlook. I am not an authority in anything.

A SENIOR HOMEOPATH ASKS:

“What MIT calls VITAL PROCESSES? Please make me understand this also”.

Sir, normally, there is no scope for any confusion regarding the meaning of VITAL PROCESSES. VITAL means ‘pertaining to life’. According to scientific view, VITAL PROCESSES means BIOCHEMICAL PROCESSES pertaining to life. It is not a word invented by MIT!

Biochemistry is defined as the “study of the chemical substances and vital processes occurring in living organisms”. Hope, it is clear. Biochemists focus on the role, function, and structure of bio-molecules. The study of the chemistry behind biological processes and the synthesis of biologically active molecules are examples of biochemistry. Why confusion sir?

VITAL PROCESSES can be studied only in terms of INTERACTIONS OF COMPLEX BIOCHEMICAL MOLECULES.

—————————————————————————————–

For NO-SENSE homeopaths, MIT appears to be a “COMPLICATED NONSENSE”! I am helpless!

When a homeopath, claiming himself on his website to be “a world renowned expert in homeopathic healing with over 15 years of experience in handling chronic and seemingly incurable diseases with excellent results, and whose “in-depth knowledge of the Homeopathic Materia Medica and case taking has been appreciated globally”, waves off my writings as COMPLICATED NONSENSE on my page itself, I cannot ignore it.

LET ME QUOTE MY ORIGINAL POST WHICH ANNOYED HIM:

“How much ‘learned’, ‘experienced’ or ‘successful’ you may be as a ‘practitioner’ of homeopathy, you cannot understand, accept or criticize MIT concepts of homeopathy, if you lack a certain level of knowledge in modern biochemistry, biological processes, supra-molecular chemistry, molecular imprinting and other related subjects. It becomes all the more tough, if you think ‘our master’ is the ultimate ‘authority’ in science, you know ‘everything’ he said about homeopathy, and there remains nothing for you to learn from others!”

No wonder why people got annoyed over this post. Most of the ‘learned’, ‘experienced’ or ‘successful’ people felt as if they were targeted. His comments once again proved I was right in making such a post.

—————————————————————————————-

Not only humans, any individual animal will have a most favorite individual and collective comfort zone in his ecosystem, which he considers as ‘my place’, and which according to him is the centre of ‘my universe’. He will always try to protect that comfort zone, individually and collectively. His happiness always revolves around that ‘centre’. Individual, as well as the collective will be more or less annoyed and agitated when their ‘comfort zone’ is disturbed.

Watch the behavior of birds around their nesting places. Animals moving as herds. Watch the bees, wasps, or ants. Watch the behavior of political groups, religions, communities, schools of thoughts. Everybody fights and dies to protect their comfort zones! It is a biological instinct.

———————————————————————————

According to those self-proclaimed SAVIORS of hahnemann, “there is no science” in my articles. But there is science in organon! There is science in vital force! There is science in dynamic drug energy! There is science in miasms! Wonderful “science”!

According to them, MIT concepts are only “hypothesis”. But everything hahnemann said are “scientific theories”!

And remember, they are not ‘prejudiced’ at all!

——————————————————————————————–

A prominent homeopath commented on my page today:

“I will tell you a fact. Nobody reads what you write. Because people who do not read organon properly, how can they read your complicated nonsense?”

Even without reading what I write, he is sure my writings are “complicated nonsense”!

The funny thing in his statement is, no body reads what I write. But why? He says it is because no body reads organon properly! ONLY he tried to read. But it appeared a “complicated nonsense” for him. Only solace is, he did not find organon a “complicated nonsense”.

————————————————————————————–

I feel pity for those SAVIORS of hahnemann, who pretend as if they were born to ‘safe guard’ homeopathy from the ‘attacks’ of ‘non-believers’. They seem to believe that the whole system homeopathy will perish, if ‘vital force’, ‘dynamic energy’, ‘minimum dose’, ‘single drug’ and such FUNDAMENTAL LAWS are not preserved. They seem to think that it is their duty to ‘defeat’ SCIENCE, and prove that “science is unscientific”, in order to safe guard homeopathy!

I can only sympathize with those ‘learned’ homeopathic “physicians” and “academicians” holding MD and such ‘big’ degrees, same time trying to defend unscientific theories such as VITAL FORCE, demonstrating their utter ignorance and disregard for modern scientific knowledge. I feel ashamed to hear them declaring “I dont understand such highly complicated science” when I try to explain ‘biological mechanism’ involved in homeopathic cure, and go on saying foolish things about SCIENCE that even a high school level science student will laugh at.

————————————————————————————————-

PERMIT ME TO QUOTE FROM MY ARTICLE ‘HOW HOMEOPATHY WORKS”:

Modern Science has already unraveled many fundamental facts regarding the ‘chemistry of life’, crucial in exploring the secrets of the biological phenomena of life, health, illness, cure and death. To take up the task of providing scientific explanations to the theory of ‘Similia Similibus Curentur’, it is imperative that we should be well equipped with a clear understanding about these fundamental facts.

———————————————————————————————————-

Discussing HOMEOPATHY is not an issue of “believing” or “not believing” in some ‘masters’ or ‘principles’. Science does not discuss topics in terms of ‘believing’ or ‘not believing’. Issue is scientific knowledge – not belief. Modern science explains LIFE, DISEASE and CURE in terms of MOLECULAR PROCESSES- not VITAL FORCE.

——————————————————————————————————–

BIOLOGICAL MECHANISM INVOLVED IN ‘SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURENTUR’, AS ENVISAGED BY THE CONCEPTS OF MOLECULAR IMPRINTS THERAPEUTICS COULD BE SCHEMATICALLY EXPLAINED AS FOLLOWS:

Let BIOLOGICAL MOLECULES be represented by ‘M’, and PATHOGENIC MOLECULES by D.

Pathogenic molecule D bind to biological molecule M to form a pathological molecular complex MD. MD represents a pathological molecular error or DISEASE.

Therapeutic process involves with relieving of M from the inhibitions caused by D.

Let crude drug molecules be represented by D1. If D1 can produce symptoms in healthy organism similar to pathological symptoms produced by D, that means D and D1 has similar molecular conformation, so that they could bind to same biological molecules and create similar molecular errors in the organism.

We say D1 is similimum to D, which caused the disease MD.

Molecular imprints of D1 may be represented by ‘d’, with a 3D configuration complementary to D1.

If D1 is siimilimum to D, molecular imprints ‘d’ will be having strong complementary towards D also. That means, ‘d’ can act as ‘artificial binding site’ for D, and selectively bind to it.

When applied as a therapeutic agent, ‘d’ can specifically bind to D of the MD (pathological complex) due to comparatively stronger affinity to form Dd (pathogenic molecule-molecular imprint complex) , thereby relieving M from pathological molecular blocks.

TO SUM UP:

M (biological molecule) +D (pathogenic molecule) > MD (Pathology).

If D1 (drug molecule) is similimum to D (pathogenic molecule), and ‘d’ is ‘molecular imprint’ of D1 (drug molecule),

‘d’ (molecular imprint) will be complementary to D1 (drug molecule) as well as to D (pathogenic molecule).

When ‘d'(molecular imprint) is applied as therapeutic agent,

MD (pathological molecular complex) +d (molecular imprint)> M (free biological molecule) +Dd(pathogenic molecule-molecular imprint complex).

M (biological molecule) is free now (CURE)

Dd ((pathogenic molecule-molecular imprint complex) is now bio-degraded or eliminated from the system

How much ‘learned’, ‘experienced’ or ‘successfull’ you may be as a ‘practitioner’ of homeopathy, you cannot understand, accept or criticize MIT concepts of homeopathy, if you lack a certain level of knowledge in modern biochemistry, biological processes, supra-molecular chemistry, molecular imprinting and other related subjects. It becomes all the more tough, if you think ‘our master’ is the ultimate ‘authority’ in science, you know ‘everything’ he said about homeopathy, and there remains nothing for you to learn from others!

——————————————————————————————-

First you ‘google’ for ‘molecular imprinting’, and read those articles about ‘molecular imprinted polymers’. You will get some ideas about ‘molecular imprints’as nanocavities imprinted into a supramolecular matrix, and how they act as ‘artificial binding sites’ for molecules having complementary affinity

Then you search for some articles on ‘physical chemistry’of water, hydogen bonding, hydrations shells, supramolecular aggregations, clathrates, ethyl alcohol, rectified spirit etc. You will get an idea about how water and ethyl alcohol mixture behaves as a ‘polymer’ at supramolecular level. You can understand how water-ethyl alcohol mixture could be used as a medium for molecular imprinting more or less similar to molecular imprinting in polymers.

Armed with that much of knowledge, refresh your biochemistry lessons from wikipedia. Not schussler’s ‘biochemistry’-modern biochemistry. Learn biological molecules, molecular processes involved in vital processes, protein chemistry, enzyme kinetics, ‘ligand-target’ interactions, ‘key-lock’ models, molecular inhibitions/activations and, genetics, genetic expressions and such topics.

By this time, you will have developed a basic knowledge required to understand what I explain about molecular imprinting involved in homeopathic potentization, and the biological mechanism by which the molecular imprints act as therapeutic agents.

Now, go to http://dialecticalhomeopathy.com/., and read the article ‘how homeopathy works’ very carefully. Then try to read all the 180+ articles there, explaining diverse aspects of MOLECULAR IMPRINTS THERAPEUTICS or MIT.

Do not miss to read the article ‘analysis of research studies’, in which I have been trying to reassess, evaluate, and reinterpret all the major fundamental research works so far published, trying to explore how they support MIT concepts.

With an open and unprejudiced mind, once again study organon in the light of fresh knowledge you aquired. Learn similia similibus curentur, drug proving and materia medica once again seriously. You will see, how your perspective and level of understanding the principles of homeopathy have undergone a fundamental change.

Now you can creatively participate discussions on scientific homeopathy and MIT concepts. If you are not willing to do at least this much of learning, kindly abstain from criticizing MIT.

————————————————————————————————————

“Contradictions & arguments” also are part of the historical process of “discovering some new and almost complete answers” for the fundamental questions that haunt homeopathy for last 200+ years.

All of us who are interested in the advancement of homeopathy will have to take a stand in these “contradictions and arguments” for evolving the final answer.

That is why I am digging out all relevant research works conducted so far by different researchers around the world which lay misused or unused, analyzing them from my point of view, re-assessing their findings and raising my “contradictions and arguments” regarding the conclusions and interpretations of the researchers.

I see facebook not as a place of fun or leisure. I consider it as a serious and effective WORK PLACE. I make hundreds of posts and comments daily on my facebook timeline, discussion groups, pages as well as on twitter, as part of my endeavor to evolve and promote MIT concepts of scientific homeopathy. My friends, who come on face book only occasionally, and those who are able to spend very limited time here, may miss most of my updates. There are also many late comers in my growing friends list. There may be also some people willing to read some of my posts again and again. In order to ensure my works are secured for future use, and to make them easily available for everybody any time, I regularly compile my face book posts and updates into large volumes. So far, EIGHT volumes have been compiled.

My interest in homeopathy happened very accidentally when I was only 20 years old UNDERGRADUATE ZOOLOGY student, through a constant relationship with a local practitioner who happened to be father of my classmate. I was a regular visitor in his clinic, where from I started reading BOERICKE MATERIA MEDICA and other homeopathic books, which helped me to cure myself my troublesome asthma that have been haunting me since my childhood days. I became a voracious reader of homeopathy. View all posts by Chandran Nambiar K C
