Hello Everybody!!

 

Yes its been a long time since anyone other than Aqueela wrote and it is inded time to recapitulate last time's session before the volatile subject we discussed so evaporates!!! :)

 

Date: 25th Nov 2007

SUBJECT: Posology.

Facilitator: Dr Carol Monteiro

 

Carol started the session very well. She handed out copies to all on salient points on posology which she had painstakingly condensed from probably numerous books.

Carol spoke about the history of posology, method of preparation of potencies, and the most important, the dosage. She also spoke about "levels of experience" when it comes to decide about certain potencies to give in different types of cases such as mental/emotional cases, functional pathology cases, gross pathology cases etc, derived from Dr Sankaran's school of thought.

Aqueela gave the ICR perspective about potency selection based on factors such as susceptibility, physical generals, miasm etc.

 

Dr Rajashree also spoke about the importance to keep the miasmatic background as one of the important points when deciding the remedy as well as potency.

 

Dr Vaneeta discussed about using divided doses and Manjari and Nidhi( our  new member)  spoke about using spilt doses which give immensely satisfying results. Kamal also spoke about using the five cup method which is the latest method used by Dr Farokh Master. This method also eliminates strong aggravations as are normally observed in dry solid doses.

 

All in all it was a good learning experience since it helped us embark on an intellectual discussion about the science we are all so passionate for!!

 

We will continue this discussion taking on more confusing and "highly subjective" topics like repetition of doses and potency selection when we meet next which will be held at the same place on  16th dec 2007.

 

Looking forward to seeing you all.

 

Take good care and happy pondering!!

 

Kind regards,

Manjari.

Hi all
Whats the matter? No posts in a long time???? Guess all of us are in
vacation mood with the weather getting better with each passing day
and the new year being round the corner!!!

But should that excuse us from our commitment to learning??? Well, it
is ones INDIVIDUAL call!!!! As shown in some add on TV.....YOU CHOOSE!!

Having said that, a quick and brief report on our last meeting on the
25th of last month.

We welcome one more 2 new members to join group i.e. Dr Nidhi Singh
and Dr Arcangela. Carol was the guide and she came ver well prepared
with a brief write up on Potency and dynamisation. Her contribution is
commendable.
The group took off very well from the brief inttroduction to the topic
by Carol. Major contribution came frm Manjiri and Nidhi who shared
thier experience of prescription of diluted doses. The group discussed
on divided and dry doses and the plussing method and the benefits of
each method.

Overall, a great learning experience. The session went about much
better than I had expected it to be!!! Each passing session leaves
behind a similar feeling and I hope for teh same in future.

Hope to grow and mature with the dynamic group we all are a part of!!!

Looking frwd to seeing more reports about sessions

Rgds
Aqueela
