CERTIFICATE COURSE IN ADVANCED HOMOEOPATHY
Date: 19th January 14
Name of the Speaker: Dr. R.S. Barve
Topic: Research Methodology
Time: 10.00 am – 5.00 pm
Part 1
Every branch is a science, art like Homeopathy
Research Methodology
Research: re- cherche, chercher-search
Careful scientific investigation
Art of scientific investigation
Systemic effort to gain new knowledge
3 | P a g e
Methodology:
Analysis of principles of procedures, science of studying how research is to be carried out
But Ultimate aim is to serve Mankind and Benefit of Patients.
Aim of the research should be to do something new what we have not done earlier
We have opportunities, but do not want to take advantage of it
We have enough literature yet we don’t want to do it
So there may be some reason??
Or we feel it is difficult many a times or we don’t want to publish our records- that is the problem with Homeopathy we want to hide everything
My way of practicing I don’t want to disclose
What I give I don’t want to disclose
These are not the ideal clinical situations
If I am getting result in a particular method I should be open
I should not be worried whether it is a classical, non classical whatever it is. It should be driven by the result.
4 | P a g e
If I am getting result with this particular method I should find out why I am getting it, if I am not getting, why I am not getting
All these are the meanings
How to do the research???
Analysis Principles & procedures
Why most of the researches done by the Homeopathic doctors or Homeopaths is rejected & not published, not accepted & not listened is because we don’t follow a methodology & publication & research.
See unless you do in a scientific way
If I cure 100 cases in my practice, it amounts nothing, unless I categorized it & scientifically show how I do it, the result has to be reproducible.
Somebody says I have cured Cancer!!!
OKAY
How many cases have you Cured??
If I sent you 100 cases out of it than how many cases you can cure it ----- That is what is important
One case doesn’t mean anything5 | P a g e
One can get Spontaneous remission that is what people say, so how you counter than??
So you can require a scientific methodology so that whatever you publish is acceptable by scientific community otherwise it remains between you & me. You say I have cured so many cases & you say I have cured so many cases but when we go publish it, no one is ready to publish it.
NO one believes it !!
And they call it as a Placebo therapy that is what is happening in Britain.
There is a great pressure in Britain that Homeopathy should be removed from National Health scheme in Britain because than somebody has proved that it is placebo.
Shown on the TV channel
There is a Panel
1 for Homeopathy & one against Homeopathy
The person who was against Homeopathy got a 2drahm bottle of Nux Vom 10M and he asked that Homeopathic Doctor that you call 10M as a very high potency, strong potency than what he did,
6 | P a g e
he gulped that whole bottle of 10M Nux Vom & than see nothing has happened with strongest medicine that is what you do if nothing is happened with strongest medicine, that means your Pathy is what, it’s a placebo.
You say 1 DOSE, than a strong dose 1 dose
Repetition is so harmful
Drinking whole bottle on TV show of Nux Vom 10M & saying nothing happens to me, how you counter this now.
Than we call it is our very strong medicine 10M, 50M & that is how it been projected now than they say it is placebo.
The drug which cannot influence symptoms on me, how it cures??!!??
But then we require a scientific reasoning to counter it & that we don’t have with us.
We don’t know what happens when we take a drug.
We still don’t know how our drug acts till than we cannot counter.
Now there is a magician.
He is called as James Randy7 | P a g e
If you might have heard it
He has put an open Challenge of 1 million pounds.
He is a magician not a Physician
He is a Magician Challenging Homeopathy putting a Price- Anyone can win it!!!
1 million pound
A person who can proof how Homeopathy acts, how it functions scientifically???
Who will justify its action???
Who will proof scientifically that it is not a placebo???
It’s an open challenge given!!Those who want to accept it, can accept it.
Till date no one has accepted His Challenge.
Till now no one has proved it.
So no one has won those 1 million pounds till now.
8 | P a g e
Till now no one has been able to show how exactly your drugs act.
So do you feel this is not required tomorrow.
See when you are practicing tomorrow patient will ask, how your medicine act ?
Than we give vague answers that it is DYNAMIC, it is Spiritual.
People are not ready to accept this now-a-days
I can show you 100’s of theories how medicines act, right
Ultimately scientific community wants EVERYTHING black & white
Can you show Vital force!!??
What we are referring to is an article by IIT Mumbai—
that higher dilutions retain the original substance
Research in Health Science specifically it is the activity to design
RESEARCH IN HEALTH SCIENCES
MEDICAL RESEARCH:
9 | P a g e
Activity designed to test a given hypothesis, draw conclusions, develop or contribute to generalized increase in knowledge about health, disease, causation, remedy management.
Ultimate aim of the medical research should be welfare of the patient & development for science
MOTIVATION:
What makes people to undertake research?
To generate new knowledge, improve scientific understanding which is grossly lacking in us
Improve medical treatment new methods—
Develop evidence based medicine
Face challenges & unsolved problems.
Find hidden truth, which is not yet discovered
INQUISITIVEESS is mother of all researches
Now we have Higher purposes & Practical purposes
10 | P a g e
Which we really believe as Homeopaths
We as Homeopaths believe whatever Hahnemann as done is the last thing & there is no scope of improvement further
Unless we come out of that attitude we will not improve
If you have accepted everything as it is you cannot do research there should be inquisitiveness.
OTHER OBJECTIVES
Compulsory work in college, internship.
Mandatory circular work in M.P, PhD
To do publications which will benefit to get higher academic post
Name & status symbol
We do compulsory research- So imagine the quality of research.
Many a times we copy & complete the journal from seniors
We do Mandatory work
My Guide wants 250 pages of thesis
- So heading changes, matter remains the same
11 | P a g e
Guide hardly takes pain to read a Single page also
This is not only in Homeopathy, this happens everywhere
Half of the Government funding goes in repetitive research work
Somebody doing a particular work
E.g.: Synthesis of Nano-particles using : plants is a Research
Somebody doing using gold
So same idea
Somebody doing with silver
Somebody doing with copper
Idea is same, everyone will say I have published 1 paper & everyone gets recognition doing something new
Same thing is done by everyone
Other purpose of research is to do publications
If you want to be head of the department you want to have Publications because the Committee will ask you how many research papers have you published it?
In University format you have to write:
12 | P a g e
How many International papers you have submitted?
Also how many National papers have submit?
Presentation & Research work is again compulsory for getting academic post
Lastly Name & Fame I have published so many papers- I am Scientific
Causal Links in the Research- Teaching- Practice- Triangle.
13 | P a g e
What should be the purpose of Research?
14 | P a g e
Research should be practice oriented than
only it has some meaning.
Research should be practice oriented than
only it has some meaning.
Theoretical research with has no utility in practice, it doesn’t help anyone & whatever you learn from practice should be put into research.
So it is 2 way
Also most important whatever you do in practice should be taught
So most of the times what is taught are not practiced.
So the one freshly passed out doesn’t know how to practice because he is give high understanding of morals, Values & what is classical & what is ideal, when he comes to the practice, he finds totally new world because whatever is taught is never practiced.
Practice is something shown as different.
So there has to be a perfect Understanding whatever you teach should be seen in practice.
And your practice has to lead to research and that research should help both things teaching also as well as practice.
When all these things will come together you will have a good research and a good practice & a scientific development
15 | P a g e
Whenever we look at Research, we look at this person
LOUIS PASTURE:
He is one the scientist who is praised by Hahnemann himself.
Research laboratories are sacred domains, temples of future, wealth, and well-being.
Science should be way of life
Now we may have research whether Homeopathy is vaccination or not but if we read Organon Louis Pasture was praised for his vaccine for small pox & Hahnemann has written he has done a greatest thing for a mankind.
So does not mean that Hahnemann was against Vaccination.
So why we say that Vaccination is Non-Homeopathy –read in Organon Hahnemann has praised so much this person for Vaccination.
So we have lost many opportunities in the history if you go- The 1 st person even before development of microscope to think of Viruses & bacteria was Hahnemann.
16 | P a g e
He predicted Vibrio as a Virus may be- it is not virus but he thought it is a Virus that is causing epidemics of Diarrhea- that is cholera.
So the world did not know the cause of Cholera & Hahnemann knew the cause of Cholera as a Micro-organism.
So who should be the frontiers in the Pathology & the Microbiology?
Should be the Homeopaths & today we are thinking we don’t need to study & then we are criticizing that is not the cause of disease & than we say it is the material cause of the disease & if that is not the cause of disease than why Hahnemann thought of Vibrio’s as the cause. He never said only Dynamic Influence.
He specifically said vibrio is the cause of Cholera in spite of not having a microscope.
So Hahnemann was “Open” we are not today & we say cause is what Miasm, Cause is susceptibility but not Vibrio’s.
But can you have Cholera without Vibrio
Can you have Typhoid without Salmonella??
Can you have Tuberculosis without bacteria?
Then why not ACCEPT it
We don’t want to but it doesn’t fit into our Organon definition than we can say is the exciting cause of the disease

Topic : Research Methodology
Time: 10.00 am – 5.00 pm
Part 2
Your susceptibility & Miasms can be fundamental causes.
Organisms are Exciting cause
Even 200 years back the motive of research was to generate wealth even the person like Louis Pasture
Unless you have this motive people will not fund you
Unless your research generates the fund people will not fund you
18 | P a g e
Types of Research:
Laboratory Research
Clinical Research
Theoretical Research
Quantitative Research
Qualitative Research
Library Research: means you have to go through literature
Whatever is published & you are deriving your research out of it without, actually work yourself- You are doing through references.
All these types have their places.
No research is inferior.
Laboratory Research— Always better because you are showing the world in front of you.
Clinical research: We all should work on it.
Fundamental research is always important.
19 | P a g e
LOGIC IN ORGANON CONFusion
Inductive Logic Deductive Logic
This is the basis not only for Homeopathy but for Modern medicine also. They use the same Terminology.
So the basic research is : Investigation of basic Principles.
e.g.: Law of Similars.
Theory of Potentization is the basic Principle.
Basic research will have its application through the Pathy.
So what you doing are observing the events.
Drawing the Conclusions out of it.
Making a Theory out of it.
So from Natural examples which Hahnemann saw he came on LAW OF SIMILARS—that is INDUCTION--Inductive Logic
Once you form a law out of Principle than you apply to Practice is Deductive Logic
20 | P a g e
So this logic is a part of Research work
So Fundamental research always leads to Development of new theories that is why it is important.
This is what we were taught
Basic Research
Particular ----- General
Person ----- repeated
(Clinical Trials)
Observations ----- phenomenon ----- data collection -----analysis ----- conclusion
Induction logic
21 | P a g e
Applied research
Deductive logic
Solving problems employing well known & accepted theories & Principles.
Study specific Cases
Birth of Homeopathy, itself is a research Activity. It is not that nothing has happened in Homeopathy.
22 | P a g e
Research in Homeopathy
Discovery of Homeopathy is a product of research
Observation in nature—hypothesis—Law of Similia
Drug proving—material medica
Clinical difficulties in chronic cases—theory of chronic miasms
Hahnemann is not the one to think of Law of Similars
There were many before him to think of Law of Similars
There are references from Ayurveda as well on Law of Similars
But the person who utilized the most Law of Similars—is Hahnemann.
So when he started with his experiments of various drugs & then he came to Law of Similars, itself was a same thing he did.
Another research activity in Homeopathy is Drug Proving our material medica would have not existed, so it’s a drug proving
When he went into practice, he had difficulty in treating Chronic diseases with their relapses that demanded a development of new theory so came “Theory of Chronic diseases”—Inductive Logic
When we apply this in treating is a Deductive Logic.23 | P a g e
Further research is needed in following subjects
New, scientific drug proving’s
Re-evaluation, reproving of old medicines.
Potency proving’s
Explanation of basic laws in light of modern science
Concept of miasm
Concept of dynamic effect
We have drug proving’s but we don’t have scientific drug proving’s what is according to Protocols
Every year there are 2 drugs proved but hardly the protocol is followed
Time has changed, needs have changed, stress increased
Potency proving’s—
China was proved in tincture form.
Lycopodium was proved in tincture form & we are
using potentised form.
So is tincture proving same as Potency, than why to potency?24 | P a g e
These are the questions to be asked ourselves.
We have explain our basic laws with respect of the modern science that is the need of hour.
This is why Homeopathy is criticized—as it is unanswered
What is Miasm—Again a Mystery
If you ask of Organon person Origin of Miasm & Necessity of Miasm:
10 people will ask differently!!!
All will answer differently!!!!
Some will say 1 miasm, some will say 3 miasms, and some will say 4 miasms and some will 10 miasms.
So what is Miasm then???
Miasm population is also over growing by the time, is there end to it.
As we don’t know what is Miasm. We don’t want to name anyone but that is the Fact.
Why this is happening & why there is a need of new Miasm than because somewhere we are lacking in our result.
25 | P a g e
Why Hahnemann thought of Miasm?
Because he was lacking somewhere in results.
So miasm was thought to be obstacle.
So after 200 years we are now thinking of 10 miasms till we are lacking somewhere in results or we have to categorize drugs in particular miasm so that it becomes easier for prescription—that is also the intention of miasm.
Miasm was thought to be obstacle for Prescription.
But that was not the intention of Hahnemann when he thought of miasm.
So what is dynamic?
We don’t know what is Dynamic—what is meant by dynamic
And that’s why we cannot prove anything.
How drug acts— Dynamic.
How cure takes place— Dynamic.
The thing which we cannot see— we cannot explain that is dynamic.
That’s why there is Criticism.
26 | P a g e
We don’t know what is the mode of action of our Homeopathic drugs because we don’t know what we are giving as a drug & how it acts exactly.
Lots is needed to be done on Drug Standardization—
We don’t have Drug-Standardization.
Mode of action of Homeopathic drugs.
Drug Standardization.
Stability & expiry date.
What is potency & potentization/dilutions.
Actions & role of nosodes.
We don’t know what nosodes are???
How they act???
To combat all the above situations the following evolved:
27 | P a g e
Need for Post-Graduation study in Homeopathy
1989- Post-Graduation Curriculum.
Awareness, scope, knowledge improvement.
Upgrade skills, Organon, Repertory, Clinical subjects to follow.
PhD
Fellowship Courses
There was even great opposition even for PG Homeopathy.
What is the need for it??
What new you are learning??
The Law remains the same, drug remains the same.
The purpose was to discover something new.
To create awareness, hope & knowledge improvements.
28 | P a g e
Basic desire to do something new.
Everybody of us wants to improve the science in new way.
Purpose remains same with certificate course, Fellowship course— that the science should improve, doing something new about it.
To develop better Understanding, Perception.
What is the purpose of the Guide?
The role of the guide is not to tell the student what to do, but guide should understand what student wants to do.
Why he has joined the course, what is his motive, what he wants to work on?
So if you get opportunity to work in the field that you like— you will do better.
Subject of interest has to be identified by you (us).
Identify 1 of the subject you want to work on
e.g.: -Pediatrics
-Posology
-Orthopedics
29 | P a g e
-Neurology
Aim is to treat better than any other Pathy.

Name of the Speaker: Dr. R.S. Barve
Topic : Research Methodology
Time: 10.00 am – 5.00 pm
Part 3
What should a Guide Identify??
1. What is the research topic??
2. Research work the student wants to do??
3. How he wants to do??
4. What is his Motive of profit??
5. And then accordingly formulate what is methodology??
6. What material he should go into??
7. We are doing the same thing in PG – in Organon, Materia Medica
And the same subjects in Under-Graduation as well, the reference books, textbooks-everything remains the same. Than what new are we doing?
31 | P a g e
When you work on it you will get that patient only because your results will be better in those cases.
So one must pick up something related to Clinical subject.
Why do we have courses like PG, Certificate Course, and Fellowship to learn different topics in depth?
So one should identify in the practice which subject he likes & one should start working on it.
Identify your interests because your result will be better in that particular are. So your research works will help/enhance your practice.
This is the responsibility of the guide. How to go about it once you select the topic Ultimate Aim is Publication & Presentation at the end of curriculum.
Research --- Practice.
So those who feel research is not required for Practice they are wrong
32 | P a g e
Six Arcs of Research- Teaching- Practice Triangle
33 | P a g e
In the PG (Homeopathy), Certificate, Fellowship we have same like Educational methods in PG. program.
Theoretical/Clinical work
Ward/Hospital training
Case presentation
Poster Presentation
Group Discussion
Seminar
Article Writing
In practice we cure many cases, but when we see admitted patients, we can take more complicated cases, & learning chances grow more.
We lack in Clinical training as a bedside/admitted Physician i.e. Hospital training all over cured.
Somehow Clinical & Hospital cases in Homeopathy needs lot of improvement.
Also we even need improvement in legal system to support that.
34 | P a g e
There are certain laws which go against Hospital practice if you want to do it into Homeopathy- whether you can give fluids, or you cannot give fluids & what types of fluids.
IV fluids, you can give- again it is Controversial—Because anything give parentally is not Homeopathy so we need to change the definition or we have to accommodate so many other things in our scope which were not there earlier—that is the need of the hour. Suppose the patient is dehydrated, Collapse & Sinking— Yes’ he requires fluid we accept that then that should be accommodated in our Curriculum.
Group Discussion is the most important thing which we avoid, is the way you interact, criticize each other fight, that is how you share your views, exchange your views but that’s limited subject on that is why you improve your understanding—
Let see what other person has to give—see no Homeopaths come to a same drugs many a times—we don’t have to understand what remedy but the thinking behind it why he has given this how he has given this that all we have to understand because we are interested in writing the name e.g.: what do you give in osteo-arthritis that is a useless question because you are not going to prescribe the same drug—so no need to write—So that is why we have seminars & open discussions.
Again these are the subjects which we don’t like.
35 | P a g e
When MD was introduced maximum students used to fail in this medical Biostatistics subject because we don’t like statistics.
Statistics/Biostatistics:
Collection, analysis, interpretation & presentation of collected data
Tabulation
Charts & diagrams
Bars
Pie charts
Line diagrams
Software systems: SAS, SPSS, MEDICALC
As it is most of the students who come to medicine do not like Mathematics on top of it Statistics is still boring but that is important to understand a particular event.
How to project your science is also important for the people to understand & appreciate.
There are so many software’s which are available to do data analysis which you actually don’t have to do it.
How research starts??36 | P a g e
Twinkle Twinkle little star how I wonder what you are—research starts right from nursery- Age of 2 & 3
So Research starts when you ask Questions to yourself & others around you.
37 | P a g e
This is wrong any one can do research because I am practicing I cannot do research that is wrong.
So start asking, don’t accept anything because it is said by someone.
There is something called as Null hypothesis in a research- Means you propose a theory & you counter it & call it null theory.
Suppose I say this drug cures this-
The Null hypothesis says this drug doesn’t cures this & when you try to it prove it that it doesn’t cures it, you will end up landing saying it cures it.
So start in a negative way- Homeopathy doesn’t acts- Null Hypothesis.
Homeopathy is only Placebo so start with this than you will end up proving it really acts so countering that is Null hypothesis that is also one of the research you disprove the thing & with the logical thing you come to conclusion, Yes it works.
38 | P a g e
So your research starts when you ask questions very important
Research starts when you start asking questions.
How? What? Why? Why not?
If you accept without asking questions you cannot do research (let it be said by anyone) Let it be said by Hahnemann that is research
Inquisitiveness is mother of all research
Good research involves, a lot of hard work & little luck
Failure is not fatal, success is not final, what counts are that one continues to work & perform.
This is Research Methodology
Luck is needed
39 | P a g e
Person who invented Benjing ring, he was fighting to identify the structure of Benjing for so many years & than he got a dream of Sarpanch having got catching a tail by mouth & than forming a ring then he got an idea that Benjing might be round like a ring structure. Now in whole amount of research he never thought of this but it was the dream which gave him this idea so that is Luck.
Penicillin is a fungus that prevented a bacterial growth- so incidental finding- but that created world that created world generation of Antibiotics so the person who observed it was a lucky one.
So luck is required to that extreme but luck is not substitute to hard work that is required.
40 | P a g e
Good research is a team work
We Homeopathy don’t share our ideas, our combinations our research work. That is why we don’t grow.
Unless you are put depth together you can’t be a team work
Now-a-days no one can do isolated work because the technology is so advanced, the instrumentation is so advanced even the physicists cannot handle all the techniques the person who is doing NAMAAS cannot do ACM cannot do DLS. We require a team of physicists, scientists, botanists’ chemists all together.
41 | P a g e
So this is our state
Those who want to do something
Now there is a list of things shown where you want to go
42 | P a g e

Research top
Do I know the field?
Is it important in my field?
It is ethical?
Has anyone already worked on it?
Is my timing correct?
Do I have sources & funding?
Will my work have impact in my field?
Duke of Queen- asked him what is the use- if you have electricify induces some magnetic field but what is the use of this in practice because electricity was not known at that time when he has postulated that electricity induces magnetic field.
So clinical relevance was not there of that study
So what Farradey said this is “like a new born baby”
New born baby has no purpose
It is the time which will decide what this baby
will do.
47 | P a g e
And now all the appliances, & electric foils & magnetic inductions, & all the techniques that we are seeing today it is because of that Farradey experiment.
So he was before time but he didn’t get the credit of the experiment.
So time is also important to get the credit.
Conclusion: We should keep working. This is the baby that we
have time will see what is its utility.
F.I.C.E.R Criteria’s
For good research
F----- Feasible (time, money, expertise)
I----- Interesting
N----- Novel
E----- Ethical
R----- Relevant48 | P a g e
Good research is scientific, systematic, logical & replicable- this is relevance to Homeopathy. We have lot of results but they are not replicable. If I prescribe something in this condition & symptomatology, it acts but if you prescribe if it is not working than it is not a replicable result. The criticism for Homeopathy is you talk a lot but you don’t show reproducible effects, consistent effects.
So reproducibility has to be there.
Up to World War there was nothing like Ethical research.
This Concept of Ethical research came because of German people- they did in human research activities on the prisoners. So there were no Guidelines earlier.
Now we have Americans & Indian Guidelines.
Medical Research & Ethics:
Ethics = moral principles.
Prior to 1947 no ethical guidelines existed.
1897- American medical association- code of medical ethics.
49 | P a g e
1947- Nuremberg Code formulated, after shocking experiments on prisoners of World War II.
Voluntary participation, informed consent—Most important—It should not be forceful it should be written consent.
In drug proving also we have to take written consent.
Helsinki declaration 1964
National research act 1974
UNESCO documents 1977
Indian council of Medical research 2000
Basic principles:
o Respect the person
o Beneficence
o Justice
50 | P a g e
Ethical Research in Homeopathy
Homeopathic practitioners regulations, 1982
Clause (1) of section 33, read with section 24 of Homeopathy central council act, 1973
Oath
Duties
Misconduct
Human experiments: Randomized controlled trials
Compare Rx group with control group which does not receive treatment(Placebo).
Blinded RCT :
o Single blind method : Participation does not know what they are receiving.
o Double blind method : Participation & care providers do not know.
o Triple blink method : Participation, care provider, controller do not know who is receiving which drug as it is coded.
51 | P a g e
Publication:
No matter how great are your results, work is incomplete & not acknowledge unless you publish it.
Charles Darwin : Scientist’s life would be happy if he had only to observe & never to write.
A good scientific paper can be rejected for publication if it is not written correctly.
As Homeopaths we are very bad at writing & publishing it.
We require in Homeopathy, good documentation.
Publication:
Articles for submission to journal have to be formatted as follows: title, introduction, methods, results, discussion. As per requirement & tradition of journal.
Details of procedure for submitting the article can be obtained in detail at http://www.icmje.org.
52 | P a g e
Peer reviewed journal/article
Submitted article is send to experts of matching competency, who are not part of editorial staff for review.
Based on recommendations of peer reviewed helps author & editor to improve the quality of article/journal.
Asian Journal of Homeopathy IJHM.
British Journal—Peer reviewed journal.
53 | P a g e
How to write Research Paper
1. Title of paper
2. Byline & affiliation
3. Keywords
4. Abstract
5. Introduction
6. Review of literature
7. Materials & methods
a. Experimental details
b. Theoretical basis
c. Methodology used
d. Study design
e. Sample size & statistics
8. Observations & results
9. Discussion
10. Conclusion: one paragraph (few lines)
11. Acknowledgement
12. Reference & Bibliography
54 | P a g e
Otherwise you will not have any credibility- don’t say I have heard it somewhere
1. Title: must have key words avoid words like: “scope of ….”, “Study of …..” accurate, brief, clear
2. Byline & Affiliation (referral address not the postal address): name, degree, affiliation, corresponding author, e-mail.
3. Key words: most important words (5-6)
4. Abstract: brief, less than 150 words, aim, objective, scope, result, conclusion.
5. Introduction: reason for your work, lacunae in existing literature, should increase interest in reading.
6. Literature review: sequence of work done by others
For every journal they have their own methods of writing the references, it may vary with each journal. So standard pattern is what you 1st write the name of the author- usually it is a corresponding author.
If you have 4 authors of the article
One is called as
1. Corresponding author-- If you have any queries with that related article than you will to correspond to that author- he will solve your query- so that name comes 1st.

Homeopathic Pharmacy potentization
Mathematical mechanical process in which inert power of drug is activated by trituration
Action of homeopathic drugs is dynamic?
Inert drug becomes active
Change in properties of substance
More dilution, more strong is the potency
Years have passed our Definitions have not changed.
Potentization
What do we exactly do by Potentization.
Why it is done in this particular way only.
Dilution or Potentization? Is it same?
Why to triturate who do we give Succession.
Why 10/100 strokes, why one hour for Trituration.
How far we can do Potentization cm, mm…..
59 | P a g e
There is confusion at higher level.
We don’t have answer which is the highest potency.
Questions ????????
How and why these dilute medicines will act
What is left after 24X, after crossing Avogadro’s no?
What is acting?
Can we potentised without trituration, succession
How do we have liquid potencies of insoluble substances, metals like lead, gold, copper?
My query to my teacher is how you prepare Plumbum Met liquid potency
Lead is not soluble
Highest metal
How you produce liquid potency of insoluble drugs like
Plumbum Met
Aurum Met
Cuprum Met
All are metals, insoluble, how you prepare liquid potencies???
60 | P a g e
More questions
Why diluted Nat-Mur produces s/s, but Nace is daily diet does not same with coffee than coffee should not act but it acts.
Sand is inert, why Silicea gives s/s
Many drugs proved in tinctures, but also used in higher potencies (China, Lyco, Chelid, ledum)
Difference between tincture & potency
Then why we give restriction-
No coffee, garlic, onions

-TINCTURES COULD BE USED AS INHALERS- THIS OPENS A NEW FIELD FOR US
OUR TINCTURES ARE PREPARED LESS THAN 10 MICRONS.
-WHY NOT PREPARE HOMEOPATHIC INHALERS. WE CAN INHALE HOMEOPATHIC DRUGS
-HAHNEMANN HAS SAID THAT YOU CAN PREPARE HOMEOPATHIC INHALERS. IT IS WITHIN THE PERMISSIBLE LIMITS. IT IS LESS THAN 10 MICRONS.
62 | P a g e
-THERE IS A METHOD WHERE WE CAN USE HOMEOPATHIC MEDICINES BY OLFACTION THAN WHY NOT GIVE HOMEOPATHY AS INHALERS WHY NOT HOMEOPATHIC DRUGS USED AS NEBULIZERS. THAT TIME THESE TECHNIQUES WERE NOT AVAILABLE NOW WE HAVE.
MOST OF THE DRUGS ARE LESS IS LESS THAN 10 MICRONS
Than another tincture was taken, this was given to IIT Mumbai for working this was Terminally Arjuna tincture. And there were very skeptical & said if you have to tincture have bigger particle size that will spoil our instrument so what they did is they filtered it to 2 microns filter & subject it for Dynamic light scattering for DLS & what it shows the Terminal Arjuna tincture it’s a plant extract contains particle of 2-3 nanometers is equal to 22000 microns.
63 | P a g e
Permissible limit is 10 microns so we have so small 10 microns means 10X1000 nanometers -10000
Nanometers particles size we are allowed for inhalation & we have 23 nanometers size.
Right now we don’t have any standard in manufacturing what should be the particle size of the drug.
Particle size of Arjuna terminal tincture was 7.2 nanometers.
RBC is 70 microns.
70 microns -70000 nanometers
RBC size is 1000 times more than our particle size of our tincture
Let potentize and see what happens to the particle size so at least we will know what we are doing by potency.
Role of Succession
T Arjuna 2XPotency = DLS study
PARTICLE SIZE = 3.9NM
IX- I prepared particle size became 5.8 from 7.2, when I went to 2X it became 3.9
64 | P a g e
Holarrhena 1X 2675nm
65 | P a g e
When I went to 3X it became 1 nanometer (NM). This was the particle size at 3XPotency = 1NM
So question now is what will happen at 4X. The answer is I don’t know because whatever instruments are available today we can measure only up to 1NM; below one nanometer we don’t have any instruments available up till now so we cannot measure below one nanometer.
But what are we doing with succession is shown.
66 | P a g e
Why to SUCCUSS:
Is progressive reduction in particle size if we go in Sequence?
difference between could not achieve with dilution & succession is required
So now 1 experiment cannot prove everything
They say it happened only once- So not a Big deal or a great achievement.
This was done in the University of Mumbai Kalina University.
So they were helpful enough to allow me to do this because I can’t handle these instruments.
MALWEN AMIL is a No. 1 famous British Company World Wide; they supply instruments to all premium institutes like IIT, DIFR.
These Institutes don’t allow us to use these instruments. They have no gain in Homeopathy. So we could not get appointment with them.
Special case was considered & called to Baroda to utilize instruments with charges ofcourse.
67 | P a g e
Holarrhena IX 267nm 2.6 microns
Let see what happens at 2X1000nm
Less than ½ sizes
Now same result with Bombay instrument experiment & this Baroda Instrument experiment.
Now we have same result 2 experiments consistently we are reducing particle size by Succession.
I am biggest skeptic.
HOMEOPATHIC TINCTURE
PART OF THE PLANT/WHOLE PLANT
TANNINS, SAPONINS, FLAVENOIDS
CELLULOSE STARCH
MUCILAGE
Ca, Mg, Zn, Cu.
Soluble and insoluble
Colloidal solution
Scientists are Skeptic of all
68 | P a g e
They asked me a Question you are reducing size of what because you take a plant extract, plant extract doesn’t mean only Alkaloid, you will have cell, cellular protein, cellular debris, Dura-matrix, trace element will have together in tincture, and you are reducing size of what.
No answer
Then approached to Indo German Company.
Dr. Rabram Patani Owner is a Pharmacist, educated in Germany.
Recently Awarded for His Manufacturing Unit.
COLCHICIN ALKALOID (POWDER) INDO GERMAN
ALKALOIDS
69 | P a g e
Sir approached him- I said I want your product for Homeopathic drug experiments- So he was very curious!
Why he wants?
Because no one sells Alkaloids- Because people are very skeptical to give alkaloids directly.
So wrote an application for the purpose of requirement & gave original alkaloid & was very helpful.
Gout Nil is- Colchicine & we have a drug colchicum, but we have whole extract of it- Alkaloid in it is a Colchicine.

70 | P a g e
Role of Succession
T Arjuna 2XPotency = DLS study
PARTICLE SIZE = 3.9NM
IX- I prepared particle size became 5.8 from 7.2, when I went to 2X it became 3.9
In order to avoid confusion of particle size
I prepared at home from alkaloid- Colchicine tincture not Colchicum tincture- particle size reduced even from alkaloid not only whole plant. Consistently same results
Now we have proved it 3RD TIME:
1. Bombay institute
2. Baroda institute
3.Now at Home
Now all the Nano-particles have disappeared because we have gone beyond 1 nanometer D.L.S cannot accept anything below 1 nanometer.
Now we are getting Alcohol & water mixture patterns.
All the particles have gone beyond that level we are not measuring it.
71 | P a g e
CONCLUSION: We are reducing particle size by Potentization
Trituration and succession lead to progressive reduction in size of drug particle.
Trituration and succession is much more than just dilution.
Particle size of tincture & lower potencies is in the range of few microns nanometers.
Nano size particles will form colloidal solution & will not settle down- property of Nano-particle.
SOLUTION, COLLOID, SUSPENSION
SOLUTION: MIXTURE WITH PARTICLE SIZE AT MOLECULAR OR IONIC LEVEL 0.1 TO 2MM, HOMOGENEOUS
COLLOID: MIXTURE WITH PARTICLE SIZE 2 TO 1000NM, HOMOGENOUS.
SUSPENSION: HOMOGENOUS MIXTURE WITH PARTICLE SIZE GREATER THAN 10000NM.
72 | P a g e
Our Standard Criteria should be:
When we prepare tincture it should be colloid or solution not Suspension- But until now so such criteria’s are introduced. So we have to introduce.
Ex: Calendula Mother tincture, if you keep it for some time it settles down.
Why it happens?
1. One is practice size.
2. Every solution has a capacity to accommodate soluble & insoluble compounds.
3. When you change or exceed that capacity either solute is more & solvent is more the soluble compounds will become cob web.
If you add alcohol to that solution cob web will disappear.

Part 7
Calendula is a fresh plant.
It is drug strength ½.
Tincture when prepared alcohol concentration is only 96% or less than 46% water is more. So substances which are not soluble in water will form cobwebs
So rather than calculating or preparing tincture, depending on moisture content, we should prepare depending on the stability of the product. So will have to design a new way of producing new way of preparing tincture rather than depending on moisture contents.

NANO PARTICLES
K.ERIC DREXLER, 1980
NANO TECHNOLOGY
NANO MACHINES
NANO ROBOTS
1NM = 0.0000000001MT
1 MICRON = 0.0000001MT, 1 MICRON = 1000NM
1NM = 10HYDROGEN ATOMS IN LINE. So we reach this level at 3Xpotency.
75 | P a g e
RELATIVE SIZES
RBC SIZE = 6.8 MICRONS, 6000-8000NM
WBC SIZE = 7.21 MICRONS, 7000-21000NM
CELL WALL = 10NM, CELL MEMBRANCE 7-10NM
HAIR = 70 MICRONS, AEROSOLS= 7-10 MICRONS
We have better penetrability of the drug because of the size. It can even penetrate the viral wall, the cell wall forget about the human being.
So many of the Antibiotics size is larger than that, they don’t penetrate.
That is why Research has to be in time. At Hahnemann’s time, this material was not available. This technology & details & physical details were not available- so he was not able to make understood that how all this is happening.
Now we have all this material available so now we can explain our processes better so time is right to explain it now.

NANO PARTICLES
Reduction in size brings about changes in the properties.
Size determines the properties.
Change in Physical, electrical, optional properties.
Increase in surface area to Volume Ratio.
Show faster Reaction, Diffusion Or Ionic Transport (Nano Ionics).
If you change particle size properties will change.
Macro to Nano, Change in Properties.
Absorption of Solar radiation is better.
Smaller the particles better the Absorption.
Opaque Substance becomes transparent- Copper.
Stable material becomes combustible- Aluminum- harmless metal
We could never dream of it.
Gold becomes- RED- Black.
Gold Silica- Red.
Gold melts at lower temperature- 300C.
Insoluble gets soluble- Gold- Platinum met, Aur. Met, cup. Met potencies.
Insert Gold- Potent Chemical Catalyst.

Trituration- Grinding- Progressive reduction in size of Particles- 6X
Less than 100nm size approx. can be converted now to Colloidal liquid form. And further Potencies can be Liquids.
82 | P a g e
Silica 6X- Nano Silica- No more Insert
Natrum Mur- Change in Properties- Acts Differently
83 | P a g e
So you can prescribe Coffea Cruda to Coffee drinker Natrum Mur as well as we eat salt everyday.
ROLE OF SUCCESSION
Potentization is not Dilution
There is Progressive Reduction on in size of Particles? With succession
Less the SIZE = More the Stability of Colloidal Solution

Acute appendicitis
Earlier patient was given Lycopodium as a Constitutional remedy 118 | P a g e
Totality is covered by Belladonna- when symptoms agree give it, do not think about acute, superficial, deep etc., etc.
Now what to give the drug which covers more number of rubrics more number of rubrics or which is 1st in the list to tackle this there is a function which is called as 1 mark—
Click it- so all this gradation disappears & every drug is only 1 mark so only drug which covers most number of rubrics with come ahead.
Than we get real picture.
Surgical opinion- Keep all the options open.
Belladonna O/1 in deviated doses.
2 hourly X one day
Liquid diet
Surgical opinion: adv. To operate appending next day
Temp: 100F
No Guarding119 | P a g e
No Rebound Pain
Pain (R) iliac Fossa on Deep Palpation
Patient decides not to go for Surgery because I am already better
Organic Pathological Case.
LM potency is low potency.
This prescription is Sectorial, local & pathological.
As Acute phase goes reduce repetition & increase the potency.
Strychnine- never give in low potency as it is poisonous- Nux Vom
0/3 is given on follow up.
This is on the contrary if patient improves I increase the potency
Case of OA:
I advise knee replacement in the patients whose range of movement is less than the artificial joint.
Artificial a replaced joint has a range of movement average 0 to 90o. Most of than cannot move more than 90o.
Practical problems are to be considered- Commode facility.
120 | P a g e
I won’t refer patient of 90 years old for joint replacement.
