HAHNEMANIAN CONCEPT OF MIASMS BACKGROUND 18’th century physicians weak in chronic diseases Avoidence of T/t Hahnemann --- he can cure what he will and what he is asked to cure. Knowledge Acute sub – acute chronic diseases -- veneral disease ( syphillis )
Hahnemann --- leipzic --- coethen (1821 attention more on chronic sufferers. Mode of T/t -- by name ---- gout (sulfuric acid) -- by symptoms. -- by cause -- material. SITUATION -- dynamic. Non – venereal chronic diseases T /t - remedies fully proved unto the time. always returned _ in more or less varied form _ with new symptoms. repeated annually with increased complaints
SOLUTION proving of new remedies didn’t advanced healing BUT by single step. Thought provoking experiments and observations C Not only to combat disease presented before eyes. L U E BUT To encounter fragments of deep – seated original disease. well defined , separately existing disease CHRONIC DISEASE
CHRONIC DISEASE if untouched --- as over yrs with mans lifetime. --- food , robust constitutions can’t diminish it. --- never pass away by themselves. but, --- increases and --- aggravates till death. So, Something is there, for there origin and foundation. and enables to continually rise and grow. CHRONIC MIASM
KENTS CONCEPT OF MIASM
Psora… the beginning Evil Thinking willing
The Original Sin
No one on earth without psora.
The Itch Simple state to very complex state.
Lasts until last breath , contagious
Psora - Always state & condition precedes action. - As life of man, will of man, so body of man. - As internal so is external, image of own comes out. • Itch is limited thing………. Noah’s flood. - Violent aura leprosy……. milder form of psora. - Ancients referred leprosy as an internal itch. - Today's human race is better than moral leper. - Thinking, willing & acting that makes of science of human race.
• • Lasts untill last breath , contagious. Not exists in perfectly healthy state. To understand have to accept world of god. False thinking enters state which was perfect correspondence. No one on earth without psora. Simple itch………. . Scaly eruptions. No scabies in healthy child. Generations to generations susceptibility to it increases.
PSORA • Without psora no disease. • Primary disorder of human race. • Beginning - spiritual sickness (original sin ) progressed to true susceptibility – foundation for other disease. • Simple state to very complex state. • Chronic & acute miasm. • No cure with superficial remedy.
• • • Transformation of miasm From generations ……… generation. Primary psora…………. . primary psora. 1 st stage sycosis……… 1 st stage sycosis. Advanced stage………. Advanced stage. Miasms are carried forward as they are i. e. they shows advanced manifestations & do not show the previous stages again. • e. g. wife shows advanced stages of syphilis which she has got from husband already having primary manifestations.

CONCLUSION • Hypersensitivity of mind • Hypersensitive to external stimulation • Sensation & altered functioning • Affections of mainly skin , mucous membranes & nerves • “ITCH” as presentation on skin • Mainly functional changes are observed • Structural if present are “REVERSIBLE” suppressions of primary defence. • Primary deficiency syndrome
SUSCEPTIBILITY It is the capacity of living organism to receive and react to stimuli both internal and external Susceptibility is one of the fundamental attributes which differentiates living from non living. Alleviation of disease depend upon the same power of the organism to react to the impression of curative remedy

Sycosis • Two types of gonorrhea. • Require antisycotic remedy. • Anamnesis of case enables us to look at constitutional state of sycosis. • Wife gets from husband in which state it was. • Sycotic nasal catarrh, breaking down of organs , rheumatic affections, etc.
• In children tendency to marasmus, old appearance of face, waxy, anaemic, lieanteric stools no digestions. • Recovery is always slow. • Who lives proper life escapes from sycosis & syphilis. • More the human race becomes susceptible to acute & epidemic diseases.

v Restoration of the patients to health represents. The reaction of the susceptible organism to impression of curative remedy v Reaction to medicines depends upon the degree of susceptibility of the patient. v Since cure consists simply in satisfying the morbid susceptibility of the patients v Implies – susceptibility as attribute exists in every individual & carries its peculiar stamp in health. In disease it may become morbid & perverted hence to satisfy the susceptibility supply need & modify it. By using suitable modifying agents.

THE COMPARISON OF CHRONIC MIASMS BY PHYLLIS SPEIGHT
• Mr. Noel Puddephatt introduced her to the writings of the homoeopathic masters like Hahnemann, Herring, Kent, Clarke, to name a few. • Hahnemann’s chronic diseases -- Psora • Haehl’s “Life of Samuel Hahnemann”
• J. H. Allen’s 2 volumes of “The Chronic Miasms” • Based entirely according to Allen’s book on miasms. • She calls the tubercular miasm mentioned by Allen as “Pseudo Psora”. • Claims no originality of work and is very modest.
Sources: • Allen J H- Chronic miasms. • Hahnemann- Theory of chronic diseases • Robert’s philosophy • Banerjee - Chronic diseases
• HAS MENTIONED IMPORTANT POINTS IN THE CHAPTER OF TASTE. FINE DISTINCTION OF TASTES IN ALL THE 4 MIASMS IS EXPLAINED. • TASTE SHOULD BE NEUTRAL AND ANY PERVERSION OR FALSIFICATION HAS A MIASMATIC BASIS. • FOUL TASTE OF NUX VOMICA WORSE MORNING • HEPAR, TUB AND PYROGEN HAVE TASTE OF PUS BEFORE COUGHING. • ALL METALLIC TASTES MAKE US THINK OF SYPHILIS OR THAT THE TUBERCULAR ELEMENT IS PRESENT.
• Desires and aversions stand high in therapeutic value as they are the basic miasmatic symptoms next in importance to perverted mental phenomenon in disease • Skin and mind are exhaustively covered.
Sycosis • Sycotic patient is barometer. • In any stage, in any form, it takes the precedence of the 3 miasms. • Natural discharges never ameliorate sycotic patients…like persp, etc. • Sycotic manifestations are characterized by slowness of recovery.
Suppressions: • PSORA spends it force when suppressed upon the nervous system, or upon nerve centers, often producing nervous and mental phenomena of a serious character, all ameliorated when an eruption is thrown up on skin. • SYCOSIS- Sexual organs are affected producing inflammatory diseases, hypertrophies and abscesses, cystic degeneration, mucous cysts and when thrown upon brain produces headaches, severe acute mania, and central insanity.
• PSORA – ITCH OR ITCHING PAPULE • SYCOSIS – CATARRHAL DISCHARGE • SYPHILIS – VIRULENT OPEN ULCER • ADDITIONAL NOTE ON SYCOTIC AND SYPHILLITIC REMEDIES IS ALSO GIVEN.
Inflammation and fever are in reality the manifestation of that vital reaction or resistance on the part of the organizations which is the means by which the real natural, curative antibodies and antitoxins are produced Inflammation & fever are not evils per se.

THE CHRONIC DISEASES. HAHNEMANN’S TASK SEEN AS THE GREATEST WORK ON THE CLASSIFICATION OF DISEASES IN A LOGICAL MANNER, ACCORDING TO THEIR ORIGIN (FUNDAMENTAL CAUSE) THE FOUR MAJOR CLASSES: 1. OCCUPATIONAL OR DRUG DISEASES. 2. PSORA 3. SYPHILIS 4. SYCOSIS
Ø HAHNEMANN HELD THAT ALL THE CHRONIC DISEASES ARE DERIVED FROM 3 PRIMARY, INFECTIOUS AND PARASITIC SOURCES. ØTHEY CANNOT BE ERRADICATED FROM THE SYSTEM AND THEY ONLY GROW WITH TIME IN A PARTICULAR PERSON, AND ONLY LIVING ORGANISMS GROW. Ø HENCE MIASM HAVE TO BE LIVING ORGANISMS. Ø HAHNEMANN’S TEACHING ABOUT THIS “LIVING, INFECTIOUS AND PARASITICAL” NATURE OF THE DISEAE PRODUCING AGENT WAS CONFIRMED BY THE DISCOVERY OF THE MICROORGANISM. Ø CONDITIONALITY OF THE ACTION OF THE MAISM
DOCTRINE OF LATENCY: Ø THE COPNCET OF LATENT MIASM COMPARED WITH THE LATENCY OF THE BACTERIA IN THE BODY FOR LONG TIMES BEFORE IT PRODUCED ANY VISIBLE MANIFESTATIONS. Ø e. g. INFCTION OF TUBRCULOSIS OCCURS IN YOUNG AND IT MAY MANIFEST MANY YEARS AFTER. METASTASIS: THE TRAVEL OF DISEASE FROM THE SKIN TO THE INTERNAL ORGANS COMPARED TO THE EMBOLISM AND SPREAD OF THE CANCEROUS CELLS TO DISTANT PARTS.
THE IDENTITY OF PSORA AND TUBERCULOSIS: Ø TUBERCULOSIS WAS RGARDED AS “THE MOST UNIVERSAL SCOURGE OPF THE HUMAN RACE. ” Ø LEPROSY BACTERIA RESEMBLES THE TUBERCULOSIS BACTERIA VERY CLOSELY. HENCE TUBERCULOSIS AND ALL THE RELATED ILLNESS TO IT WERE CLASSIFIED AS PSORIC. Ø TUBERCULAR MIASM WAS NOT ESTABLISHED TILL THEN. Ø TUBERCULOSIS WAS CONSIDERED TO BE THE SAME AS PSORA
THE CAUSE: TOXICOLOGICAL THEORY OF DISEASE Ø THE BACTERIA WAS ONLY THE MOST ANTECEDENT EVENT OF THE WHOLE PROCESS OF THE DISEASE. OTHER FORCESES Ø THE DISEASE IS CAUSED BY THE TOXINS RELEASED BY THE BACTERIA. Ø ALONG WITH THE LOCAL EFFECT THERE IS A DYNAMIC DISTURBANCE Ø HENCE THERAPEUTICS SHOULD BE AIMED NOT ONLY AT THE REMOVAL OF THE BACTERIA BUT ALSO THE ASSOCIATED DYNAMIC DISTURBANCE

Susceptibility understanding of syphilitic miasm Predominant epochs—birth & old age Pathology—Structural, degenerative , necrotic , irreversible Sensitivity--blunting of sensitivity as pathology progresses. Immunity—Compromised & poor, hence poor healing. Nutrition—Tissue nutrition i. e. O 2 & proteins is poor. Pace—Rapid or slow & insidious. Correspondences—based mainly on basis of pathology & sector. Approach—most of the times is Boger’s. TPD & TPR—focuses mainly on palliation Posology—Low potency & freq. repetition.
