Homeopathy (week 2) about the lineage/history
Phatak materia medica is from Boeninghausen language and approach
did Boenninghausen not appreciate sx of the mind?
only included 5 rubrics or some such on mind
does include lots of physical and clinical specifics
Emanuel Swedenborg was like Rudolph Steiner
claimed that he visited heaven and hell and talked to dignitaries there
reinvented everything; medicine, politics
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emanuel_Swedenborg
mind comes down into the soma
Swedenborg influenced Kent and Lindlahr
Lindlahr: everything comes down to personal responsibility
Kent promoted mental emotional sx beyond prior homeop engagement with them
Kent says mental emotion primary then somatized
Hahneman says mental/emotional sx co-arise with physical, neither causes the other
Morrison from Kent lineage, and from Vithoulkas
emphasizes mental/emotional incl outward behaviors described in detail
has keynotes but not local particulars for physical sx
"I would caution against taking Morrison literally"
so Morrison and Phatak are complimentary
"Kent-Vithoulkas progression of knowledge"
George Vithoulkas upcoming teleconference
Dr T will get dates/times for us
