HOW TO USE THIS BOOK?
Hahnemann had always said that Homoeopathy is an art and science. Just like any art, skill improves
over a period of time with practice. However, it is equally important that a Homoeopath is provided
with apt tools in the form of Materia Medica and Repertory. A Materia Medica provides information
about the innumerous drugs proved. These are then compiled in the form of Repertories for easy
reference. Thus, only if one knows Materia Medica well, will he know how to proceed to next step of
using a Repertory and finally making a prescription.
Dr. Hahnemann wrote his Materia Medica Pura based solely on Drug Provings and never blindly copied
what was documented by others via assumptions and speculations. Later, many of his followers
followed his footsteps and a large number of Materia Medicas came into existence. This trend is
somewhat ongoing even now, but unfortunately the style has shifted from pure documented facts to
the author’s own imagination and fancies. Thus, the authenticity can be doubtful.
Students of Homoeopathy are fascinated, yet endlessly groping in the vast amount of knowledge
available in our books on Materia Medica. We fail to obtain results via these Materia Medicas because
most of them are not easy to comprehend and neither are they handy, concise and user friendly.
Books are too voluminous and elaborate and as a result the main core of the remedy is somewhere
lost in the exhaustive literature. On the other extreme, there are those Materia Medicas that merely
name disease diagnosis which is of least importance. Hence a profusion of scholarly tomes exists, but
these may be considered only as academic exercises. There has always been a dearth of information
available to the Homoeopath.
Students who have had the opportunity of evolving under Dr. Khedekar’s guidance have always
enormously benefited from the precious, clinical hints and tips he has time and again taught whilst
treating patients. It was worthwhile to gather all the topics that he taught during seminars and make
a compilation of the same. He penned down these valuable thoughts, so that even more
Homoeopaths could benefit to the fullest. This book is exclusively written from clinical experiences and
Repertories, a reverse Materia Medica, so to say.
Layout of book:
Dr. Khedekar’s idea was to put forth in brief a succinct coalescence of the peculiar, characteristic signs
and symptoms of a remedy; written as ‘Entry Points’, meaning- these points when covered by a
case, must make us think of the remedy.
A tabular classification according to genetic defenses makes us appreciate the depth and pace
of each remedy. It makes it very easy to understand how so many innumerous and at times contrary
symptoms can exist in a single remedy. Eg. The remedy prepared from cuttle-fish: Sepia has the
symptom “full of cares and worries”- in its Psoric (Sensitivity) expression and “Indfference”- in its
Syphilitic (Destruction) expression.
Possibly, the most enlightening concept is the ‘Ruling in’ and ‘Ruling out’ section within each drug.
One cannot possibly go wrong if he follows this thumb rule once he has narrowed down to a group of
remedies for the final prescription. The book shows how there is a simple, but complete and scientific
rationale behind the selection of each remedy.
This book has helped in beautifully depicting how each remedy has a character, a NUCLEUS which
remains unchanged, irrespective of Miasmatic expression. To save the whole, the body continuously
defends itself by the genetic defenses, but its core remains the same, which is unmistakably and only
perceived by each remedy’s Sensitivity and Reaction. This technique helps understand the
genome, [what is to be cured in disease] and shows the authentic way to decode it, without spending
a futile fortune to decipher a gene. Dr. Khedekar has thus succeeded in lifting the shrouds of mystique
surrounding Homoeopathic prescription making.
6
Dr. Khedekar has now taken a giant leap further in the practical application of this concise and precise
book. At the Imperial School of Homoeopathy, Belgrade, he, (along with his personally trained
teachers) has personally groomed each student on how case taking and prescription making should
not be dreaded and it is in fact quick and scientific once one knows what to look for in a case. This is
taught with live case taking in classroom followed by case solving and presentation of case. He has
taken this step as he firmly believes in the age old Chinese proverb, “Give a man a fish and you feed
him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime!”
Some key concepts that have been used in this book at the beginning of every remedy:
Extroverted/ Introverted: this in every remedy has been of the most importance as this gives us the
innate behaviour of the individual. Whether this constitution talks on himself or has to be pushed.
Here are some clinical presentations for extroverted constitutions:

1) People who start talking by themselves.
2) People who talk more than the doctor.
3) People who do not allow the doctor to talk.
4) People who do not need introduction.
5) People who tell their story or history without much probing.
6) People who elaborate their answers.
7) People who laugh, joke and make atmosphere lively.
8) People who exaggerate their problems and/or stories.
9) People who do not wait for your answer.
10) People who are excited while talking.
Here are some clinical presentations for introverted constitutions:

1) Reserved
2) Timid
3) Grief undemonstrative
4) Anger suppressed.
5) Quiet disposition
6) Talk indisposed to
Diligent/Non– Diligent
Here are the clinical presentations for constitutions who we consider as diligent:
• Careful,
• Thorough
• Meticulous
• Painstaking
• Fussy
• Reliable
• Conscientious
The ones who do not have these qualities are non- diligent
Hot/Chilly
Here are the characters which are present in Hot constitutions:
Those persons who can tolerate cold better.
They are those constitutions which feel more of heat.
People who Cannot tolerate more of heat.
Those persons who feel better in winters and cool temperature.Cannot remain without fan
and/or A.C. in summers.Need fan and/or A.C. in summers.
Wake up from sleep if light goes off in summers.
People who feel uncomfortable in summers. People who love winters.
Here are the characters which are present in Chilly constitutions:

Those persons who can tolerate heat better.

They are those constitutions which feel more of cold.Those people who Cannot tolerate more
of cold.
They feel better in summers and warm temperature.
Those persons who can remain without fan and/or A.C. in summers.
They do not need fan and/or A.C. in summers.They do not wake up from sleep if light goes
off in summers.
They do not feel much uncomfortable in summers. Those people who love summers.
Thirstless/Thirsty: A very important quality giving us insight in to the genetic mechanism of

maintaining the water balance in a constitution, which is a very intricate and complex mechanism.
Water being the most important element in the human body. 75% of the body is nothing but simple
water! So its most important to understand whether someone is thirsty or thirstless, without which, is
impossible to come to his similimum.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Dr. Shreepad Khedekar’s tryst with Homoeopathy is indeed unique and worth mentioning. Khedekar
as a young boy was always interested in sports and had an undying passion for Cricket. Homoeopathy
was not his first choice as a career option. It was just a stroke of luck! His initial years at medical
school were spent in bewilderment as to what this mysterious Homoeopathy is all about. However, his
openness to new ideas and clarity of concepts made him stand apart from his contemporaries and
there was no looking behind ever since.
Dr. Khedekar has always been most grateful to his ever inspiring teachers who have chiseled his mind
and guided him through his learning days. Dr. Mrs. A. M. Shaikh was the one who etched the word
Homoeopathy in his mind and her teachings made the deepest impact on his mind. This in turn
encouraged him to assist and learn under Dr. Prasad Patil where for the first time he came out of the
books and got to see the clinical side of patient care and a sound basic foundation was laid. He later
assisted Late Dr. B. M. Pai who took him a step further from basic clinical care to specializations. Dr.
Vijaykar certainly is credited for inculcating faith in him that contrary to beliefs, Homoeopathy really
does work. With showers of blessings from all his teachers, Dr. Khedekar commenced his own private
practice soon after completion of his master’s degree. But his thirst for knowledge could never be
quenched. He now wanted to go deeper and learn Homoeopathy with relation to existing ideas on
Genetics. In between his busy practice he would meet up with Dr. Apte, Head of Dept. of Genetics,
Bombay Hospital to exchange views on Genetics. Dr. Khedekar’s enthusiasm went low as Genetics
ultimately only offers replacement and not cures. However his approach to deep and incurable cases
got even more accurate and result rates soared to new heights.
During this process he wrote 2 books, first the ‘ACSOTROM: a comparative study of the rubrics of
MIND’ which is a compilation of all the mind rubrics from repertory with their most indicated remedies
and their comparison. This was published by Indian Books Periodicals and Publishers (IBPP) in New
Delhi. Dr. Khedekar did this compilation when he was in the first year of his Masters degree course in
Belgaum, Karnataka. When his contemporaries were studying and struggling to understand the
construction of repertory, he wrote one for the practitioners. This was well accepted in the practitioner
league and won him many laurels. Truly a man ahead of his generation. And second, ‘Rubrics and
Miasms’ which came in a soft copy where the mind rubrics were explained with their miasmatic
background. And now he has evolved to a new level of writing, which is his own materia medica
based on his clinical experiences.
Dr. Khedekar undoubtedly is a brilliant doctor and his teaching skills too are certainly at par. His truly
amazing quality is that he very willingly shares all of his knowledge, ideas and vast experience with his
contemporaries and students alike. His lectures are engrossing and leave an impact of a lifetime. His
first seminar was in Switzerland followed by several seminars in Belgrade, Croatia, Germany and
India. Next seminar scheduled this year is in London. He is a man on a mission to spread
Hahnemann’s teachings to as many as possible and to bring Homoeopathy at the top of the pedestal-
the only place it deserves to be!
Apart from the homeopathic practice Dr. Khedekar’s taste for the finer things in life is reflected in his
passion for collecting high precision watches, pens and other antiquities like porcelain and cut glass.
He also has a passion for superbikes and high-speed cars.
Dr. Khedekar has never been fully satisfied by just conducting seminars as he believes that seminars
certainly can make one get faith in Homoeopathy but by merely attending seminars one cannot make
a good Homoeopath. To become a good Homoeopath one must not just gather tit bits from seminars.
He thus decided to establish a school where Homoeopaths can be groomed so well that they can
tackle any case, known or unknown, diagnosed or undiagnosed, with ease and confidence.
9
During various seminars he saw that doctors in Serbia were most enthusiastic and went out of their
way to learn more and more about Homoeopathy. He saw this country as a very fertile soil where the
future of Homoeopathy could get brighter and better day by day due to many like minded doctors.
Hence, the first batch of Imperial School of Homoeopathy was established here in March 2009 during
his 12th trip to Serbia in 4 years. He brought along with him, his very able and efficient team of
personally trained doctor-teachers from India. He alone could never give enough time to the school
considering his prior commitments and established practice in Bombay, India.
His team includes, Dr. Silroy Martins, the man behind the curtains. Dr. Silroy, M.D. Repertory is the
Chief coordinator of all the activities and events and conducts them with such ease that working
becomes a delight.
The teaching staff at present comprises of four doctors who have been privileged to learn under him.
Dr. Pradeep Patil, M.D. Repertory who has been Dr. Khedekar’s roommate and classmate through
Medical School. He is now an established Practitioner and teaches in the same Medical School (where
Dr. Khedekar got his Bachelor’s degree) in the Repertory and Clinical Dept. At Imperial School, he
tackles the topics on Homoeopathic Philosophy.
Dr. Dorland Martins, M.D. Repertory has also been his roommate and a true friend. His family consists
of three generations of Homoeopaths. Dr. Dorland teaches the subject of Repertory Rubrics which he
has mastered so well under guidance of Dr. Khedekar.
Dr. Kavita Bugade, B.H.M.S. was Dr. Khedekar’s junior who was always very keen to learn under him.
He saw her potential in her early days at work and asked her to join the team and teach the subject
of Embryology at Imperial School.
Myself, Dr. Khushnoom Sinor, B.H.M.S. was blessed to come across Dr. Khedekar and learn under him
for 2years. I shall always be indebted to him for so generously sharing all the knowledge and
grooming me into a confident practitioner and making me a teacher of Organon of Medicine at the
imperial School.
Dr. Khedekar always envisioned opening a school but was waiting for the right time and place to
implement his plan. The purpose behind this master plan was to generate fully capable physicians
who aren’t shaken up by any diagnosis or pathologies and are not afraid of any so called ‘incurable’
disease. The School plan is further divided into three parts:
1st part – Knowledge of Human body, physiology.

Basic principles of Homoeopathy
Scope and Limitations
2nd part – Repertory: Rubrics- from patient’s language

Philosophy by Stalwarts- Dr. Kent, Boger, Boeingausen
3rd part – Practical: application of part 1 and 2

Live case taking in classroom
Materia Medica live
His school has been very well received by Doctors as well as patients in Serbia. People who have
helped him patronize the school have been none other than His Excellency, Ajay Swarup the
Ambassador to Serbia from India who very actively participates in all the school activities along with
his benevolent wife Mrs. Chanda Swarup who are ardent advocators of Homeopathy. The very
famous pop singer Brena is a big fan of Dr. Khedekar and Homoeopathy and talks about the miracles
by Homoeopathy in several magazine interviews. Television channels have also aired several of Dr.
Khedekar’s interviews and helped bring about awareness of the marvels of Homoeopathy. Journalist
Vesna Boskov continues to write several articles and spread the word to every nook and corner. Dr.
Slobodanka Kasikovic has stood behind him like his guardian, always. Thus, there is nothing stopping
Dr. Khedekar’s noble intentions and certainly sky is the limit for someone as gifted as he!

INTRODUCTION
It is very accurately said by the wise, “After the darkest night, comes the brightest dawn!” At a time
when medical practice was at its worst, came the dawn of Homoeopathy, around 250 years ago.
Prevailing systems of medicine at that time were Allopathy, Antipathy, Ayurveda, Isopathy,
Tautopathy, Chinese medicine, Egyptian medicine and many more. But sadly, none seemed to cure;
they only temporarily managed to control a few prominent symptoms here and there.
Homoeopathy is the youngest and the latest Science of Therapeutics.
It was discovered by our savior Dr. Samuel Hahnemann who in his times, was in search of a science
based on sound principles. He, like his contemporaries was not getting satisfactory results in his
medical practice. He thus gave up his prestigious M.D. degree, stopped his clinical practice and took
up work as a translator to earn a living. He came across a statement that changed the shape of things
to come. William Cullen’s Materia Medica stated, “Cinchona can cure Malaria because it is bitter.”
Hahnemann was a man who never accepted things without pondering and finding logical reasoning
himself. He took the juice of the bark himself to observe its effects. To his surprise, he started to
develop malaria like symptoms of chill, heat and sweating. Thus he re-discovered the much needed
Universal law that the disease curing power of a substance is due to its disease producing power.
Sadly, majority of today’s Homoeopaths have not been able to tap the full potential of this wonderful
science based on rock solid, unshakable principles. Like every Law, which is Universal and
Mathematical, Homoeopathy too is a complete science which cannot fail when applied correctly. This
is because the human body is Mathematics of kinesis. Even then, the scope of Homoeopathy is
restricted to mere allergies, skin eczemas, acidity etc. Myths like “Homoeopathy acts slowly, it does
not work in deep pathologies, we cannot use it in acute and critical conditions” still exist. It is believed
to be a mystic and unscientific alternative mode of treatment. It is indeed a shame that the
Homoeopaths are so unsure of themselves that they always seem to resort to Allopathy especially
when a family member is unwell, as they do not want to take a risk and venture into something so
unsure and uncertain to them. Time and again, it is always the Homoeopath, not Homoeopathy that
fails.
The reason behind the failures of all of the above is one and the same. Homoeopaths have not fully
understood the great Hahnemann and his teachings. He wrote his original, most logical ideas and
principles to be followed by physicians in his handbook ‘Organon of Medicine’. This 250 year old book
is based on eternal laws that hold true today and will hold true for centuries to come. It is rightly
called ‘Organon of Medicine’ and not Organon of Homoeopathic Medicine because any real cure by
medicine has ever witnessed would be in accordance to these principles.
Hahnemann was undoubtedly a man ahead of his times. He was a man of vision. He has spoken of
three main points to be understood and practiced by all physicians:
1) Law of Cure: Every physician must aim at restoration of health of the patient by
stimulating the patient’s own immune system.
2) Disease is because of a process called as Miasm. Miasm is a defect in the defense
mechanism of the body, namely defect in the three modes of defense of each and every cell
and thus body as a whole – 3 modes of defense are sensitivity, construction, destruction
3) Treat the Man in Disease and not the Disease in Man. Disease is nothing but the end
product of the defenses of body. It is the language of the body. So to cure or to restore,
TREAT THE MAN and he will cure himself.
11
His Organon of medicine speaks of these in astounding detail for clear understanding. Organon is
written in the form of Aphorisms; concise original paragraphs that have a profound meaning of their
own. They also have a link of thought with the preceding and subsequent Aphorisms.
§1. The physician’s high and only mission is to restore the sick to health, to cure, as it is termed
Hahnemann calls it a mission which is an ongoing process, a duty, the purpose for which one is
born. He does not use words like aim, goal, target which unlike a mission are fulfilled after
achieving just for once.
He uses the word restore because he does not want physicians to aim at merely targeting the most
prominent symptom. He does not make a statement like- make patient symptom free or cure the
disease or relieve the suffering. He talks of achieving the highest level of restoration to previous
healthy state and not just mere absence of disease condition. The word restore clearly explains, that
what is shifted must be reinstated. Restoration should ideally be in reverse order of progress of
disease state.
To aid a physician in achieving his mission, he must follow these Seven Cardinal Principles which are
the backbone of Homoeopathy
1) Law of Similia: Hahnemann distinctly declares that the phenomenon of cure entirely
depends upon this law. "A weaker dynamic affection is permanently extinguished in the living
organism by a stronger one, if the latter (whilst differing in kind) is very similar to the former
in its manifestations."
2) Law of Simplex: Hahnemann states, 'Only one, single, simple remedy should be
administered to the patient at one time'.
3) Law of Minimum: 'The quantity of action necessary to affect any change in the nature is the
least possible, an infinitesimal'. An extremely small dynamic dose of Homoeopathic medicine
is sufficient to stimulate the immune system of an individual. For the body to cure its grossest
pathologies.
4) Doctrine of Drug Proving: Drug proving is a systemic investigation and evaluation of the
disease producing power of a substance on healthy human beings of both sexes, different age
groups and people from different places.
5) Theory of Chronic disease: Hahnemann frequently noticed that in spite of giving a remedy
based on above principles, patients’ complaints kept on returning after an interval. He thus
concluded that there must be something lurking in the background. He termed this as Miasm.
He focused at tackling this so that health could be restored.
6) Theory of Vital Force: 'The material organism without the vital force is capable of no
sensation, no function, no self preservation; it derives all sensations and performs all
functions of life solely by means of the immaterial being - the vital force which stimulates the
organism in health and disease'.
7) Doctrine of Drug Dynamisation: As stated above in Law of Minimum, minimum stimulus is
required to stimulate immune system. He reasoned that the dose was too large and hence
started diluting the drug on a definite scale. He found to his surprise that the results obtained
were much better
It is clear that Homoeopathic approach is extremely different from Allopathic approach. Also, it is
interesting to note how Homoeopathy and Allopathy are opposite at each and every step:
In principles- Allopathy aims at treating Disease in Man, whereas Homoeopathy aims at treating
Man in Disease.
In medicaments- Allopaths use crude material doses, use mixture of various medicines and
administer drug in the form of multiple doses at fixed intervals. Vice versa, Homoeopaths give single,
simple drug in dynamic dose with minimum repetition
In history taking- Allopaths’ case taking revolves around the particular symptom, in trying to get a
diagnosis and specifically treating it. They give least importance to general parameters like stamina,
sleep, appetite as those do not help in their prescription. Homoeopaths on the other hand give little
importance to particulars and focus more on alterations in general state of well being.
12
In follow up- Likewise, even in follow up, Allopath concentrates on particulars, whereas Homoeopath
concentrates on generals.
Allopathy and Homoeopathy differ at each and every step. It would be an insult to Homoeopathy if a
Homoeopath tries to practice by Allopathic principles and give specifics for disease conditions like
belladonna for headaches, bryonia for joint pains and arnica for injuries. Metaphorically speaking, it
would be like providing a soldier technologically ultra modern weapons to fight the enemy. Yet, the
soldier uses this weapon just like a bamboo stick to hit the enemy. He is unable to appreciate and
extract full potential of the wonderful weapon gifted to him.
More important than making a Homoeopathic prescription is to follow what happens after prescribing.
A good Homoeopathic remedy will always restore health in a particular pattern. The deeper
pathologies must improve first, followed by less destructive pathologies. More important systems must
improve first, followed by comparatively lesser important organs and systems. This pattern is due to
sequence in stimulation of morphogenetic gradients as discovered by Gustafson, Woolpart and
Wadington. To fully understand why these gradients exist in this particular pattern, a sound
knowledge on how an embryo is developed in womb is of prime importance.

EVERY PHYSICIAN’S DILEMMA
(or, WHAT HOMOEOPATHS ARE CAPABLE OF DOING)
It is not difficult to prescribe a remedy. The difficult part comes later on when the physician has to
judge the patient’s reaction to the given remedy. He has to observe and see if he has succeeded in
RESTORATION of the sick to health. Mere disappearance of the physical complaints does not ensure a
cure.
There is a wonderful pattern of events that takes place after a good remedy is prescribed. On the
physical level, the pathology goes from a more destructive to a less destructive level. There is a shift
of disease from more important organs to lesser important organs. There are signs of elimination from
body. On the mental level, the way of thinking, handling situations, reactions, emotions- all seem to
be more in balance. A keen observer not only observes the above improvements in mental and
physical health, but also changes for the better in the social sphere. Many a times the patient says,
“This medicine has got me good luck!” but we being ignorant brush it off as patient’s imagination.
This is because we ourselves are incapable of understanding the potential that a Similimum has, to
change the life of a person for the better. Many a times after a good remedy, the individual finds a
job, or gets a promotion which was long overdue. Social and family issues get sorted out. Single
people find a partner. The individual escapes with minor cuts and bruises from accidents that prove
fatal to others. This is neither coincidental nor magical. It is mathematical and in accordance to laws
of quantum physics.
Hahnemann quotes in Aphorism 9 that in the healthy condition of man, Vital Force maintains the
functions of body in complete harmony so that our indwelling, reason gifted mind can freely employ
this healthy instrument for the HIGHER PURPOSE of existence. A person must do what he is born to
do. A writer must write, a musician must make music. Restoration of health should result in progress
of the individual. Homoeopathy thus is truly a holistic science capable of giving nothing but the best.
Interestingly, Dr. Khedekar’s mother is a teacher and an ardent fan of Yoga. Yoga refers to traditional
physical and mental disciplines originating in India. It is a sister science of the 5000 year old
Ayurveda. Dr. Khedekar’s mother and he occasionally have discussions about this science of Yoga. His
mother would always state that Yoga aims at bringing the 7 chakras of body in a state of balance. Dr.
Khedekar valued this concept as he could correlate it with Homoeopathy. He always believed that like
Homoeopathy, Ayurveda too is a Complete science and just like Homoeopathy, Ayurveda has not been
completely understood! Ayurveda also talks about ‘similar cures similar’ in its scriptures. Only
difference is that Ayurveda could not build an entire system of medicine based only on the concept of
similars.
Dr. Khedekar adapted the approach of Yoga in order to make understanding of follow ups better and
rise to a new level. It is a correlation of the already established two holistic sciences. For an individual
to progress, he must go through these 7 stages. As he crosses each stage he evolves and reaches a
higher level. With each level, becomes more in tune with himself and becomes capable of thinking big,
thinking out of the box so to say. He is able to easily express his ideas and is more open to receiving
inputs from people around him. This is the sure and only way that leads to the path of progress, for
the individual and for mankind as a whole.
Dr. Khedekar is currently working on this subject and this publication is eagerly awaited!

WHAT CAN CAUSE DISEASE?
In order to understand the concept of a disease and what factors can cause disease, firstly, we must
understand what is concept of health.
World Health Organization (WHO) modified the definition of Health in 1948 as, “A state of complete
physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” However,
majority of today’s physicians do not get even close to achieving this standard of cure for their
patients. The entire focus is on physical well-being and only physical symptoms are treated
symptomatically. Only in cases of psychiatry the mental well-being is given due importance. Concept
of social well-being is almost non-existent!
This ignorance stems from lack of understanding and appreciating the human body’s Immune System
and its expressions.
Study of Immune System is called Immunology. Immunology is defined as the study of body’s system
of defense against disease causing agents and disorders in that system’s functioning. When the
human body is in harmony and equilibrium, it provides immunity. This means that all cells of body, all
systems and its biochemistry are functioning in a state of balance.
It is interesting to note that 75% of the human body is made up of proteins, viz. hormones,
secretions, DNA, neurotransmitters, catalysts, immunoglobulins. So essentially, any imbalance in
proteins leads to imbalance in biochemistry and drops the immunity of the individual.
Today’s genetic scientists are shifting their focus from Genomics to Proteomics as now they are able
to understand that even though Gene makes a man, the expression of the man is due to the proteins.
Genetic expression of each is due to protein expression. For example, a person’s extrovertedness or
introvertedness corresponds to whether his genes are more or less expressive. This holds true in each
and every cell in that individual. Thus, expression of genes on mind, body and every cell will be same.
Innate characteristics like a person’s defense, his speed, natural urges, desires, attachments, will,
intellect, morals, physical and mental changes, cosmic affections, sensitivity, tolerance are similarly
due to gene expression and must be taken into consideration.
Our master Hahnemann has spoken about this very same Proteomics 250 years ago in his Organon
under Aphorism 5. He says that utmost importance must be given to what is the cause of disease; it
could be a mental or a physical factor that causes a protein imbalance in the body. In fact, any
emotion out of proportion; either in excess or less causes imbalance. A particular neurotransmitter
related to an emotion say Dopamine will drop in case of Depression. As a result the homoeostasis of
neurotransmitters will go off balance. Similar condition is seen when a vaccine is given, certain
immunoglobulin levels rise at the cost of others causing a disturbance. Other agents that cause
protein imbalance in a similar manner are bacterial, viral and fungal infections, antibiotics, allopathic
medicines, de-worming pills, insect and animal bite, physical, chemical or thermal trauma, specific
vibrations, genetic malsynthesis, artificial hormones, altered electric potential etc.
Above factors cause disease, that is, they cause imbalance in Immune system which shows a defense
in any of these three forms. Thus disease is nothing but defense of the body.

BARYTA CARB
CHILLY
THIRSTY
DILIGENT
EXTROVERT
Entry points
A very misunderstood remedy and often wrongly prescribed. My tribute to Dr. J.T.Kent for
bringing forth the true picture of Baryta.
Baryta is not physiologically required by the body. It takes position and place where calcium is present
hence it is similar to calcium in some way. It replaces Ca++ and is responsible for the metabolism of
nucleic protein:RNA & DNA.
Baryta affects the lipid causing HTN, Atheromas etc. also causes spastic contraction of smooth
muscles like Digitalis
Causes slowness of genetic expression resulting in degeneration & irregularity in phenotype e.g.
chronic heart disease, delayed milestones, open fontanelle, immunological changes, ulcerations,
antibody formation etc
The reticulo-endothelial system is involved. Altered blood corpuscles. AML, ALL, Hodgkin’s etc.
Irregularity/deficient genetic expression giving rise to dwarfism both: Mentally &

Physically.
Mental dwarfishness is of special type, one organ fails to grow or to produce where the other go on
normally. Giving rise to “MISPLACEMENT”
So in mind there is indiscretion & misplacement
Baryta is opposite to precocious behavior [late walking is Calcerea, late learning to walk is
Baryta, late learning to walk even with pretty good limbs is Baryta. Calcerea has miserable weak
limbs, flabby muscles, poor bones & hence is late in walking]
Kent says: It is not small person make me think of Baryta but the dwarfishness that is
mental & i.e. of organs.
Children are late coming into usefulness or activity

Organs as it were paralyzed or one organ does not develop. It stops and other goes on
One sidedness of development
Young people looking older than they are & older people looking young
Does the same thing over & over but still remain untrained
‘ROUTINIST’ this is the feature very common to today’s superspeciality world. Baryta will be of use
in these so called Intellectuals. For example, superspeciality surgeons, pilots, technicians who are
absolutely good at their routine job but lack simple street smartness.
Everything is ‘MISPLACED’: love, anxiety, fear, anger, hatred etc.

E.g.
1. One of the cases that I have seen was of a vary famous Neuropsychiatries, I asked her what
are you mentally sensitive to? And the reply was, ‘physical pain’. Baryta helped her
2. The pilot saying that it is easier flying a plane than driving a car.
3. A cardiac surgeon having no idea about the cause of simple itch and referring it to
dermatologist
These situations make one think of Baryta
48
Extremely ‘DILIGENT’ constitutions whose work day and night sleeplessly for their bosses, without
any expectation of reward and hence remain unpromoted for years
‘DEFIANT’ due to fixity of misplaced thought
AFFECTIONATE, EXTROVERTED, Friendly, vivacious and frivolous

only relieved by hard pressure; only then her moaning and anguish would temporarily stop. She was

Utilizes energy in useless things. The same is true at the disease level also. Diseases do not follow a
normal course.
Over pampered children.
Strange and a Hysteric remedy. Patients feel > better when they are not supposed to feel
better. The physician cannot measure these cases by his logic and decide what is common and
uncommon. He is compelled to fall back upon one word that covers this remedy, i.e. HYSTERIA
When you think: oh, that’s very strange???!!!
This reminds me of a patient

A young man 19 years old, extremely intelligent but was wasting his time on futile activities rather
than academics. His worried parents brought him to us. One dose of Moschus in very high potency
put his life back in harmony and today he is a Scientist in Biotechnology in about 7–8 years.
Another lady, 65 years old, came with IDDM with extremely high levels of blood sugar. She was the
mother of a very famous physician in Europe. Insulin injections were not able to control her high
surges of sugar. It was interesting to know that she used feel weak when her sugar was low or
normal, but used to feel extremely energetic with extremely high sugars. Moschus restored her
balance!

There are two phases (first alertness and then sensorial depression) of this deep acting polychrest
Common to both the phases is A/f fright
I will try to explain the most common constitutional phases
FIRST PHASE [clinical opium]

Quick brained people
Sharp and witty
Excellent memory, very similar to Coffea in its brain affections
Acuteness of all the senses except touch, acute hearing, acute touch, acute vision, acute hearing,
acute taste, acute smell but painlessness of complaints which are usually painful
Clinically, patient will always express as, “Doctor, I can bear a lot of pain or I have a very good
tolerance towards pain”
Excellent and vivid imagination
Contented
Unable to understand or appreciate his sufferings

Irrespective of the intensity of his problems whether physical or mental or social, the patient gives an
expression as ‘there is nothing wrong with me and I can tolerate everything’. Hence the rubric is
contented
Blissful feeling
Very quick to act and react [Lach, Coffea, Hyos, Ign, Cann I, Lyss, Choc, Adamus]
A/f Shame, Sudden joy, Shock, Fright

Dream fantastic & joyless
Liar
Talk vivacious
Opium exaggerates the secretion of Endorphins hence producing a feeling of painlessness and well
being
Endorphins are most heavily released in the human body during stressful situations or in moment of
great pain, so the clinical picture of opium as is observed may be just the opposite at the level of
biochemistry
Endorphins have an antagonistic effect on the receptors and therefore block the release of
neurotransmitter molecule from nerve terminal
Clinical researches reported that inserting ACUPUNCTURE needles into specific points of the body,
triggers the production of endorphins, hence may cause suppression of disease
Placebo effect has also been linked to Endorphins
Sleep overpowering but gets up at slightest noise
140
Antics play, audacious, benevolent, and carefree
Clairvoyance
Courageousness, alternating with discouragement
Fearlessness
Makes gigantic plans and theories
Happy Man- Never Complains
SECOND PHASE (bedside opium)

Complete insensibility
Eyes half closed
Intoxicated or besotted look on the face

PALLADIUM
HOT
INTROVERTED
RIGHT SIDED
This remedy has a special place in the Materia Medica. Many of its affections are parallel to Platina,
like haughtiness, contemptuousness, gracefulness, ambitiousness, egotism, dictatorialism,
insolence, misanthropy, obstinacy, rudeness, selfishness, concerned about social position;
and on the body- constant changing of symptoms, neuralgias etc.
But for an accurately observing physician, backed by good clinical experience, these remedies will be
poles apart!
1) FLATTERY DESIRES: Always seeking for the good opinion of others. This is absolutely
absent in Platina, as Platina is sure and convinced that she is the best. Hence Platina will
never seek for the good opinion of others
2) INFERIORITY COMPLEX: Palladium evolves from a very bad inferiority complex. Hence she
covers up herself with physical beauty, luxury, clothes etc. Usually they are GOOD LOOKING
people. They spend hours in front of the mirror. They are always wondering about what
others think about them
3) LOSER: Palladium is very ambitious but is a loser as against Platina who is a winner
E.g. this story is very indicative of Palladium as a constitution

A very beautiful actress was lost on an island due to a ship wreck. For about 4-5 years, people were
searching for her. When they finally found her, she looked the exact same beautiful self as she was
when she was lost. This means that she was continuously grooming herself and taking utmost care of
herself so as to look beautiful in anticipation, that someone, someday may come searching for her. At
that moment, what would the person say if she did not look good?
Delusion, appreciated that she is not

Contempt of self
Longing for good opinion of others
Sensitive to music
Aversion to beer
Wounded pride and fancied neglect. Sometimes finding vent in violent expressions
Depressing news aggravates all symptoms

E.g.
A patient with vitiligo called me at my residence on the phone with parallel connection & one of these
phones is cordless and works on battery. This patient had been prescribed Lachesis by me because of
his vivacious talk. But she did not respond favourably to lach.
So when she called, she started to talk incessantly as usual. This talk of her went on for so long
about 50-60 mins. So long that my phone got drained off of the battery & I was absolutely relived.
Then somehow I felt guilty & I tried to call her back from other fixed landline which was parallel to the
previous one. This took about 10 mins. To my surprise she was still talking at the other end. This is
typical PARIS because this means that she was least interested on weather I was listening to her or
no.
As Paris enjoys his own speech & talk.
Takes pleasure in his own talk
Loquacity self satisfied.

Stasis, weariness & misery in syphilitic cases but the psoro-syphilitic sepia is very
diligent, hardworking & competitive & positive
Sepia goes into Indifference in the acute and in syphilitic conditions where nothing interests her. Take
no interest in the surroundings. Puts light off and want to sit at one place. Complete indolence
Competitive and mannish women
This stage of indifference is brought on by wrong homoeopathic potencies, vibrations,

radiations, X-rays, CT scans, MRI ect.
Indifference to those love d most

Angry constitutions
Irritable & easily offended
Miserly
Complaints from coition
Hatred of opposite sex

Aversion to her husband
Often Stasis is the key to sepia if the generals match
Rejects affections
Censorious, critical of parents, teachers and friends
I remember having prescribed successfully this remedy to an international Olympic Volleyball referee
who was a mannish woman. The entry point was, she was very censorious & critical, hence was very
successful in her profession
Finally sepia becomes suicidal due to her miserable existence, which evolves out of domination from
others
Talks hasty with quick gestures
Deep acting remedy capable of producing genetic mutations
Business minded
Revolting, injustice Cannot support
Intuitive constitution
Very similar to mercury in sensitivity, reaction & manifestations. But major difference is that Sepia is
yielding & can be dominated which is just opposite in Mercury

Think of Sepia in a women with a sexually over vigorous husband or nursing an over
vigorous child or twins who require too much lacteal fluid & drag her down

A/f emotions suppressed
Anger with silent grief, with indignation, anxiety bad news, cares & worries, death of parents, friend,
disappointment & deception, embarrassment, honour wounded, insult, disappointment, love,
masturbation, loss of position or job, punishment, reproaches, rudeness of others, reversal of fortune,
scorn, sexual abuse (rape), shame.
All these emotions & situations are suppressed

Reaction: This rubric defines Staph in one sentence “Ailments from insults, offences, from dignified to
fight, too, subdued wrath, went homesick, trembling”
On the body, nervous affections with marked irritability & diseases of genitor-urinary tract, skin
Ill effects of anger & insults giving rise to violent outbursts of passion
Deep guilt & shame
Cancerous tendency from suppressed emotions
Lost dignity & honour
PHATAK- Great indignation about things done by others or by himself, grieves about the
consequences
Always thinks about what others would think and thus maintains a very high reputation by self
control, his noble actions and respect
As Staph, start to loose control after too much of suppression, he reacts by trembling in anger, loosing
voice in anger and throwing things in anger. Finally going into the syphilitic state, where all controls
are lost, becomes libertinist. Also looses control on his muscles & nerves, becomes adulterous,
aversion to all persons, chaotic, destructive, harsh & rough, impulsive & rash, insane, gambles
becomes rebellious, shameless, unsympathetic, develops cancerous affections on the body. May also
develop lack of neuro muscular co-ordination, paralysis.
Staph may also present as very similar to Carcinocin & Aurum
Carcinocin- is affected by A/f Admonition whereas Staph is affected by insults from superior
authority
Carcinocin is artistic, Staph is not
Aurum- is affected by too much responsibility which he does not need to take. Staph has marked
suppress sexual desire.

STRAMONIUM
CHILLY
THIRSTY
DILIGENT
Entry points
Predominantly psoro- syphilitic remedy
The Materia Medica of Stramonium is a mixed bag and hence Starmonium has remained a wrongly
prescribed remedy. There are different shades and phases to this remedy, finally leaving the physician
in a confused state. We try to look for symptoms of Stramonium in the maniacal phase, psoric
constitutional state and end up making a blunder.
The nucleus of this remedy would remain the same though, and I have made an effort to understand
the remedy in distinct phases.
A/F suppression of secretions and excretions, causing mobility of the muscles of expression and
locomotion, and finally bringing about persistent disorder of mental faculties, spasms, deliriums and
convulsions.
ABSENCE OF PAIN.
Gyratory, graceful, rhythmic motions

Desires LIGHT and COMPANY
This remedy has been clinically seen in different phases. I have attempted to enumerate the most
common:
ACUTE SPHERE:
In the acute state, face becomes dull, anxious and panic stricken
Chilly and thirsty
Singing or talking on one subject
Always wants company and clings to others
Panic in the dark, there may also be aversion to bright light; but usually has a special aversion to
darkness. Desires light and company
He is a very sensitive constitution. Slightest emotions can bring about disharmony, like abuse in the
childhood, fear, fright, shock
Fear because of being alone, fear from anger suppressed, anticipation, emotional excitement, injuries,
accidents, reproaches and humiliation.
So if cause and effect bringing about the acute stage, is clear, Stramonium will restore health
Disposed to FROWN.
Senses blunted during chill.
CONSTITUTIONAL SPHERE
Sensitive and affectionate constitutions
Tries to impress others, affectation
Graceful in motions
Always desires light and company
Fear of the dark
Whenever they sleep, they must always have some source of light in some corner of the room,
switched on
FEAR AND FRIGHT IS THE KEY
170
They are also sensitive to bad news, crowds, debauchery, religious excitement, grief, sorrow and care;
hence are very careful
Sensitive to insults and offences, disappointment in love and sexual abuse
Amative and amorous
Plays antics to amuse others, (affectation in gestures)
They get very anxious in the dark and the anxiety starts in the face and can be seen in his looks
Cautious, desires to be carried and they cling to people
An element of boasting is also present
Presents as CHEERFUL, NAÏVE constitutions with an element of CHILDISHNESS
Desire for company esp. in the night
Full of delusions and fancies which get enhanced in the syphilitic stage
Frivolous- insolent in acts
Talks extravagant
Talk, stammering, exerts himself a lot before writing a word with distortion of face
Witty but indecent (Hyos)
Difficulty in writing: indistinctness
Very good at mimicry (voices, motions, and gestures of different animals)
MANIACAL PHASE

sphere and is like an earthquake
TERROR WITHOUT PAIN

SULPHUR

EXTROVERTED
DILIGENT
Entry points
The greatest polycrest Homoeopathic drug known to man
The affections are numerous and many times deep. This remedy is the biggest boon to Homoeopathy.
A very famous homoeopath was once asked, “If you are left on an island with only three remedies of
your choice to carry, which three remedies would you carry with you?” He promptly replied; “In the
first bottle I will carry Sulphur, in the second bottle I will carry Sulphur, in the third bottle I will carry
Sulphur!”
Sulphur is prescribed by the most intelligent homoeopath and also by the worst.
Sulphur leaves no organ in the body, no tissue, no cell untouched. It has an affinity for everything,
but here I would like to illustrate the most common Sulphur constitutions that we come across.
