Neuere homöopathische Lehren: Fehlinterpretationen des Organons

Zusammenfassung

Sowohl die körperliche Verfassung als auch die Gemütssymptome sind für die homöopathische Behandlung ausschlaggebend. Aber die heute von einigen homöopathischen Lehrern propagierte Verschreibung ausschließlich aufgrund von Geistes- und Gemütssymptomen oder nach einer zentralen Wahnidee beruht auf einer Fehlinterpretation des Organon § 210. Die Möglichkeiten einer korrekten Verschreibung unter Berücksichtigung des mentalen Zustandes werden dargelegt. Die „neuen Lehren” bringen Patienten und Homöopathen mehr Verwirrung als Nutzen und bedrohen damit die Zukunft der Homöopathie.

Summary

Both the patient's disposition and his mental symptoms are essential for a correct homeopathic treatment. However, a prescription based on mind symptoms or delusions only which is now being proposed by several teachers of homeopathy is the aftermath of a misinterpretation of the organon § 210. The possibilities of a correct prescription that considers the mental state are described. The „new ideas” rather confuse than help both patients and homeopaths and will be disastrous for the future of Homeopathy.

Anmerkungen

01 Sankaran R: [4] „I also realized the importance of the section on delusions, because a delusion is a false perception of reality, and disease too is a false perception of the present. The whole mental state of a person is an expression of this false perception (delusion).” – „Cure is the restoration of health. It is achieved when man becomes aware of his false perception of reality. This is made possible through exposing him to his delusion. This is the basis of the Law of similars on which Homoeopathy is founded.”

02 Vithoulkas G [6], Arsenicum album: „In studying remedies, it is crucially important to have an appreciation of the stages of development of the pathology. Otherwise, if we see a patient at a given stage, we may miss the remedy simply because we are looking for symptoms that are characteristically found at a different stage. In the early stages of Arsenicum, we see a relative preponderance of physical level symptoms with less emphasis on the mental disturbances.”
Vithoulkas G [6], Phosphorus: „While the physical symptoms predominate, there are few symptoms in the emotional or mental spheres.”
Vithoulkas G [6], Silicea terra: „Silica patients do not usually develop severe pathology on the emotional or mental planes, in my experience. They mostly complain of a lack of mental stamina.”.

03 Sehgal ML [5], „To repeat, let me point out that we prescribe on the symptoms of the mind (leaving aside all the other symptoms relating to the popularly known physical level of the body) and in turn get a stimulus in the automatic system, which is responsible for keeping the system of Assimilation and Elimination efficient.”
