BACH FLOWER REMEDIES: VINE REMEDY – MR. R. SALMI’S CASE

admin — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 10:39:46 +0000

Mr. R. Salmi at 40 years age was suffering from several ailments, including High Blood Pressure. He was a very capable man with above average intelligence, a very strong will-power, full of self-confidence and an unfailing presence of mind in times of crises. He was very convincing in his talk. Early success in life made him over-ambitious and turned his head. He became proud and over bearing and hypnotized by his rise to power. He convinced himself that his success was proof of his infallible judgements. He would not brook any contradiction, would not enter into argument. His word was final. His word was law.

At home he inspired awe, not love. At office, he inspired fear, not respect. He had no friends. Friendship requires mutual respect and a sense of equality, and he lacked both.

Thus he forced his way to pinnacle of success, often riding roughshod over the feelings of others, without compunction, as if the humane part in him was dead. This lone struggle without any friend, without any sympathy, love or respect from any quarter caused tension in every fibre of his body. Lack of sleep, loss of appetite, stiffness of joints, migraine and H.B.P. was the result.

His family doctor advised him to reduce tension from his mind, but he consistently ignored this advice. At last he warned his wife that if Mr. Sahni did not reduce tension from his mind, there was a genuine risk of some vein in his brain bursting and paralysing him.

In panic she came to us for advice, at the same time fearing that her husband would play hell with her if he came to know that she had dared to come to us without his permission.

So the medicine would have to be given stealthily. VINE Remedy was prescribed to be given 3 to 4 times a day, mixed with his drinking water. After 15 days, Mrs. Sahni reported slight change in her husband’s temperament, as he could now listen to other’s point of view.

After 3 months of this treatment, Mr. Sahni had shed off all tension from his mind and even helped others by his sage advice, and his blood pressure came to normal.

BACH FLOWER REMEDIES: ESSENTIAL CHARACTERISTICS OF NEGATIVE ROCK WATER STATE

admin — Wed, 15 Jun 2011 10:33:03 +0000

Here I recollect the case of Mahatma Hans Raj who was a venerated Arya Samaj leader in Lahore. It is said, in his last days, the doctors advised him to take chicken soup to recoup his fast waning strength. But he refused (being a vegetarian) and he died—a peculiar case of negative Rock Water.

A much more venerated Mahatma Gandhi, the world-known apostle of Ahimsa, ordered a sickly calf to be shot dead to terminate his agony when all medical treatment failed to give relief—a case of positive Rock Water.

Essential characteristics of Negative Rock Water State:

(a) Has set a very high ideal of code of conduct for himself and pursues it with dedication.

(b) Is very hard on himself, denies himself the normal pleasures of life, and is prepared to make any sacrifices for his principles.

(c) Is a slave of the dogmatic theories and sometimes exaggerated ideals which are subject to no change under any circumstances.

(d) Holds a wrong concept of spirituality, gives undue importance to forms i.e. special diet, meditation techniques etc., wants to be a saint while on earth.

(e) They have a closed mind, and are not able to put aside their principles and convictions even when confronted with new insights and greater truths.

(f) The constant coercion applied on himself to suppress his important human needs and normal pleasures of life and his inflexible mind often results in inflexibility of his body—his muscles and tenders become stiff and rigid, causing pain.

BACH FLOWER REMEDIES: OLIVE – MRS. K. CHOPRA’S CASE

admin — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 07:29:56 +0000

Mrs. K. Chopra, an old lady of 70 years age, had to attend upon her ailing husband who was on sick bed for the last 3 years, suffering from diabetes and weeping eczema of the legs, He could not even get up to go to the bath room by himself and several times she had to wash his bed sheets which were soiled by his involuntary urination or involuntary stools. She was dead tired physically and tortured mentally by the same monotonous daily routine. She was fast losing her own health. Apart from weakness, she got fits of depression off and on; vertigo and headache became frequent; she lost her sleep as well as her appetite, and felt as if she would precede her husband in ending her earthly life.

A new fear assailed her—what would become of her husband after her, who would attend to his needs ? A combination of “OLIVE” (for tiredness, boredom, weakness) and “Red Chestnut” (for fear about her husband) was prescribed T.D.S for one week in the first instance and was continued for 4 weeks more. Mrs. Chopra responded to the treatment very well and passed many years in good health after the death of her husband.

TELEVISION AND HEALTH – IT IS EDUCATION’S TURN TO SPEAK

admin — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 08:25:48 +0000

Years ago people were highly selective in the choice of intellectual nourishment for their children’s minds. Today, however, we have become spoiled with the great variety of things on offer, unfortunately not all for our good. The demand, even need, for constant saturation with ready-made entertainment suggests that we no longer appreciate what it means to relax in tranquillity and peace. Having reached this point ourselves, we cannot expect to retain an educational hold on our children, for they are good observers and covetous copiers of enjoyment, wanting the same things they see their parents indulge in. A child begins to be demanding when he notices that his parents exercise no self-control. The parents may want to be strict in determining what programmes their children can watch and for how long, yet they are frequently powerless in the face of their children’s disobedience. All these reflections have to do with education, and if we adults let ourselves be influenced by advertising and other pressures we should not expect that our children will want to be any different.

MISCELLANEOUS TOPICS – HOW DO METALLIC SALTS GET INTO THE BODY?

admin — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 08:12:11 +0000

You may wonder about the answer to this question. Well, there are various medicines that contain metals, for example Salvarsan. If this is taken, the patient will be ingesting mercury and arsenic, since both of these are ingredients of Salvarsan. There are also certain medicines for the blood that contain iron and copper.

Secondly, metallic salts are used in some old-fashioned preserving processes and, of course, in pesticides; these contain copper, lead, arsenic and so forth. In the case of pesticides the danger arises even as they are being sprayed or dusted, because they can thus be inhaled. They then settle on vegetables and fruits, posing an added danger, since it is difficult to remove the traces even by washing the produce.

It is still not fully known which of the new and frightening diseases are connected with the insidious effect of toxic metallic salts. Some of these diseases cause partial or total paralysis, confronting the doctor with an unsolvable problem and subjecting the patient to painful infirmity. Most likely this is due to poisoning through metallic salts, in addition to the influence of radiation. It is for this reason that we cannot be too careful in our efforts to ensure that we do not take into the body dangerous poisons in the form of metallic salts that undermine our health and future.

OILS AND FATS – EVALUATING FATS AND OILS TODAY (GENERAL INFORMATION)

admin — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 07:59:14 +0000

When an Arab friend and I walked through the olive groves in Upper Galilee, taking pictures of gnarled trees that might have been several hundred years old, I began to realise why olive oil was considered so important even as long ago as in biblical times. The South Sea islander looks at his coconut palms with the same reverence, seeing that they provide him with clothing and food. To the Russian peasant in the Caucasus his sunflowers are equally valuable, providing him with necessary oil. When he eats the seeds, spitting out the husks, he knows that this food will give him strength and tenacity. The Egyptian peasant feels the same way when he harvests sesame in fields irrigated by water from the Nile.

RAW JUICES, MEDICINAL JUICES – THE EVIDENCE OF EXPERIENCE

admin — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 07:44:47 +0000

It is not essential to know exactly how a cure takes place. The mere knowledge that juices can cure is infinitely more valuable than any scientific explanation advanced in this connection. Science, after all, only confirms the discoveries made decades ago. Many years ago, as a young man, I lectured on this subject and drew attention to the value of raw juices. Today it is easier to convince people because science has, in the meantime, confirmed our assertions of the past that raw juices and raw vegetables are wonderful remedies. It is, and will remain, a fact that the raw juices of potato and cabbage will heal gastric and duodenal ulcers.

Even more interesting is the observation I made in connection with raw potato, cabbage (green and white) and carrot juice in the treatment of gout, rheumatism and allied conditions. If these juices are taken in conjunction with a strictly natural diet, these diseases will eventually respond to the treatment.

VARIOUS DIETS AND TREATMENTS – MOLKOSAN (WHEY CONCENTRATE)

admin — Thu, 09 Apr 2009 07:30:50 +0000

Of course, I do not wish to say that such lactic acid preparations are a panacea, a cure-all, but they have certainly brought the treatment of cancer a step further along the road. Because Molkosan has a fairly high percentage of natural lactic acid, it is of immense value in a cancer diet. As a drink, diluted with mineral water, it is both prophylactic and curative in its effect. Dr Kuhl also recommends raw sauerkraut for this purpose, because of its

lactic acid content.

It is, indeed, a great pleasure to see how the experiences and observations we began to report on in our magazine and books many years ago are now being confirmed as facts.

Once you are familiar with the many good effects of whey concentrate you will appreciate it and stop wondering why, in the past, even high-ranking personages did not consider it beneath their dignity to take ‘whey cures’ for the benefit of their health.
