Seminar 2006: Bhawisha & Shachindra Joshi

The Joshi's stand for dynamic cooperation and interaction both in their daily practice and during congresses. This time also it was intriguing to see them at work.

Two major questions a homoeopath will ask himself during a consult where discussed:

“Where am I in this case?”
The importance was emphasised to go along with the patient without classifying the unfolding pattern too quickly. Hence the need to get a grip on the conversation so that the contents can remain open. If a homoeopath knows what he is doing and at which level he is in the case, it facilitates the conversation, both for himself and for the patient.

"What is the pattern which comes up?"
At the level of emotions patterns become visible. When it is further discussed at the level of the delusions, these patterns can lead the patient to the level of sensations. At this final stage the pattern can be understood without interpretation.

Further on during the first day the nobel gasses and their specific characteristics were discussed by means of an Argon-casus. Then a Sol-casus was shown to illustrate the imponderables with their own polarity.

On the second day the emphasis lay on the nosodes, which was exhaustively documented with cases of bacilinum, leprominum, carcinosinum and ringworm.
As an extra, the miasm theory was deepened by a further sub-chapter in 3 groups with in each group a less desperate and a strongly desperate alternative on the same topic:
- trying: ringworm, carcinosinum
- hastiness: typhoid, tuberculinisch
- resignation: malaria, lepra
