“Projection of mammal milk into the situation of the mammal: homo sapiens.
Every proving and every Lac remedy given to a patient will give/cure symptoms
of the mammal Lac, which will be translations of the mammal’s original situation
and survival pattern, shaded and adapted to the human situation.
Man is domesticated (civilised) herd animal and its Lacs will have themes from
herds and domesticated animals.
The position of Lac humanum or maternum will be, in man, a very CENTRAL
ONE and always complementary to any other Lac prescribed in a human
being.” *)
