The Vexed Question of Antidotes by Miranda Castro
This is a great article which makes complete sense. Thank you so
much for writing it. I found it particularly helpful being a student
homeopath. I think that these substances which are supposed to antidote
homeopathy are doing something else. They are interfering with the
physical body's ability to heal itself & therefore cause the
Vital Force to have to work harder, with various consequences. In
the case of strong Essential Oils antidoting homeopathy, perhaps
it is just confusing for the body/vital force to have two different
types of 'exciting' energic substances thrown at it leading to confusion
and an imperfect cure. Also, which is working or having an effect
- the giving up of coffee etc or the remedy?? Erica Dixon - a year
two student.

Elaine,
I truly love the way you write. You are very funny and you keep
the reader very interested. You have a great sense of humor and
your sarcasm really works.
Just wanted to let you know :)

Elaine, ELaine, Elaine,
Your article in H-Pathy with Mati Fuller ["The Staphysagria
Surprise!"] was a-m-a-z-i-n-g!!!!!! I loved it and bought the
book [Beyond the Veil of Delusions].

The bulletin was good. It can be better if it is focused on some
common ailment giving emphasis on seasonal diseases.
Best of luck

articles about: carcinosin,conium and stramonium cycles. I would
be glad to have more information.

Hi Elaine,
I always enjoy your articles. As an aspiring homeopath myself,
it's great to read things written by a homeopath with a sense of
humor once in a while! It makes getting through Hahnemann a little
easier. :-)
Regards,
Laurel
----------------------------------------
It is great to read your interviews. I need the humour right now!
And Miranda is wonderful. I wish I could just read homeopathy all
day long.

Rudi Verspoor's article looks very interesting and a good source
of information, I would think, for both people with a lot of homeopathic
knowledge and those like me, with less! I will also have a look
at his website, thank you for featuring these articles.

Dear Dr Manish Bathia
First thank you so much Miranda Castro for your articles. Your energy
or all your knowledge and all your spirit give me energy to go on.
It feels like a have known you all the time and I have read what
you say again and again. Thank you.

Dear Doctor, I'm looking forward to the article series, Homeopathic
Terminology by Rudi Verspoor.I'm still quite new in study and I've
struggled with the turbulence in the terminology, art and science
of Homeopathy. I'm keen on reading his ideas.If you check several
different Bible translations and in different languages of the scripture
Zephaniah chapter 3 verse 9 (or Sephaniah or Zephanja), it speaks
of uniting peoples with a pure language or in German, (Luther Bibel)
"reine Lippe". Of course, this is for the purpose of worshiping
The Almighty. In relation to this,homeopathy glorifies the Creator
and certainly if the homeopathic community desires unity and progress,
pure language will be a must. It's a pleasure to have my subscription.
Thank you, to one and all of the contributors.
Best regards,
Ivy Meyer

Rudi Verspoor, Thank you so much for a much needed clarification.
These are excellent articles! I like the clarity, precision, concision.

Hi,I think your magazine is great - I read the articles whenever
I get a chance and I really think that the content is of a high
standard and really helpful. So thank you .However today, I opened
the link - The< http://www.hpathy.com/papers new/verspoor-homeopathy-terminol
ogy8.asp> Single Remedy and Polypharmacy And the article was
good and just below were these advertisement links to: I found it
really interesting because the author of the article was arguing
just against such treatments. Just a comment for you as the editor
of something that did not seem harmonious to me.
Yolande Grill
-------------------------------------
The computer has greatly changed homeopathic medicine. From my
experience this has been great. The computer replaces 3 or four
hours of trying to find the right remedy. I believe we also need
to push the idea that Homeopathy is electric energy medicine. Electrolyte
energy to find homostasis.

-------------------------------------
Dear Editor,Thank you so much for sending me an e-mail specifically
highlighting the articles of Rudi Vespoor. Mr. Vespoor's enlightening,
regular column is the main reason I look forward to your e-journal
every month. I believe his insight into Heilkunstrepresents nothing
less than a renaissance in our understanding of Dr. Hahnemann and
the full application of his medical paradigm. Finally the Organon,
as well as the other writings of Hahnemann, are no longer a labyrinthine
mystery, but the methodical, reasoned, and ingenious words of a
medical colossus who set forth acohesive and complete system of
medicine that truly promises to "make the sick healthy, to
cure, as it is called". Mr. Vespoor's articles reveal the rational
intricacies of this system and help to elucidate the unwavering
genius of Dr.Hahnemann's accomplished thought and deed. Please continue
to carry Mr. Vespoor'sregular column as I find his ideas to be stimulatingly
bold and a necessary component of any principled discourse on homeopathy
.
Sincerely, Neil McKinney

Dear Rudi, Excellent!

Homeopathy 4 Everyone - May 2007 Thank you - i do read your articles
and appreciate being sent them and keep meaning to respond and say
so - am now doing that - good interview - am surprised though that
you introduce Sankaran by saying he is criticized for being subjective
when in fact his method is all about the opposite of subjectivity
which is actually the most useful aspect of it as iyallows one to
become so much closer to being the unprejudiced observer as only
the patient's words are used and interpretation and theorizing avoided.
every good wish

Hello,Just writing to compliment the nice series explaining the
aphorisms by RudiVerspoor. All the writing shows careful attention
to detail, and yet what might otherwise make for cumbersome reading,
the detail brings the aphorisms to life. Rudi's examples provide
a modern context to Hahnemann's ideas, and expanding beyonda direct
translation of aphorisms, help to explain how classical homeopathic
principles are applied in practice. Thanks Rudi!

Surviving the holidays ["Christmas Catastrophes!"]
What an excellent easy to read article. I gave it to my daughter
who is not convinced about the value of homeopathy. She tried a
few remedies with great success. Think we may have a convert here.
Ann Farrell
-----------------------------------------
I think you are absolutely right that homeopathy practiced these
days has lost its classical Hahnemannian's bearing and has increasingly
become personal and in many cases esoterically oriented although
you do not use the latter word. I remember the controversy in Homeopathic
Link started by Vithoulkas expressing his serious concern
with this degeneration in which I also took part supporting him.
I have only read the article on polypharmacy by Rudd Verspoor but
found it very disappointing because he has not addressed the subject
of homeopathic polypharmacy that is practiced today by Dr Reckeweg
and others. He only talks about allopathic polypharmacy practiced
during the time of Dr. Hahnemann. Even some classical homeopaths
in India today often use two or three drugs in combination at the
same time often in high 200 potencies.
This subject alone needs to be seriously debated. Many years ago,
it was debated in the then British Homeopathic Journal although
I have forgotten the arguments presented as I have retired from
my profession a long time ago.

Thank you for Rudi Verspoor’s series and glossary. Although
sometimes a difficult read, the effort is always rewarded. It is
human nature to gradually alter a narrative until it is totally
ambiguous. Mr. Verspoor preserves the narrative of homeopathy, without
which so much would be lost.

Hi there all at Hpathy. Very inspiring article on Miranda Castro.
Its good to read true life sometimes. A great way of connecting
the continents. I've often wondered about her as I've accessed some
of her articles before.
Cheers Deb Maurer.
---------------------------------------------------
Thank you for such an excellent Miranda Castro interview plus her
articles. So helpful and informative, can we have more, please.

Homeopathy Terminology Great Articles!! I am printing them for ready
access for myself and to show my fellow practioners. Keep articles
like this coming!

having problems with eyesight now.. but must say I have 2 of Miranda
Castros books, and I think they are just great, and must add.........
wish I lived closer to her, so I could consult her on my problem..
A
-------------------------------------
I haven't read every article yet, but the ones I did read at the
time were great! They even helped me pinpoint 2 remedies I thought
would help me and as I was going to my Homeopath the next day, I
checked with her and she agreed, so I've just finished 2 weeks on
Chinium Sulph and will be taking a couple of doses of Nat Sulp 1M
in a few weeks, so many thanks for those. Without reading that I
wouldn't have known and got the Nat Sulph. Many thanks, A

Dear editor,Thank you very much for your efforts to close homeopathy
everywhere will be grateful if you continue to send me your articles,
Best regards,

Hi The Miranda castro interview really helped me a lot. As a final
year student it gave me hints to improve my case taking and the
next 2 cases I took to college I had really progressed on, something
I hadn't done for the last 3 months. It really felt like I was cracking
it. That interview gave me real inspiration so a big thank you to
you and Miranda for that

Dear Editor,I really enjoyed reading Miranda Castro's articles!
As a student homeopath, doulaand childbirth educator I am a fan
of her books and love her sensitive and professional style. Her
conversations with her patients, how just to find thesimilium, inspires
the way I question my clients.Hope to read more in the future!
Kind regards,
Christiane
----------------------------------------
Just to say that I greatly enjoyed the article and found it very
informative, thank you.

Dear Sir or Madam: I really enjoyed the article . It captured the
essence of Miranda and was more interesting and more of a give and
take than just responding to questions. Keep up the good work. I
look forward to your ezine every month. Kathleen

-----------------------------------------
you are really doing an excellent job for coordinating and acting
as an active medium amongst believers of homeopathy. at least i
am very much impressed by your efforts in promoting homeopathy education
and its positive side. at least, i have blind faith on homeopathy
because i have tested, practiced and researched it, and i am a lively
proof of homeopathy saying strongly that IT WORKS AND IT IS ABOVE
ALL PATHIES.

---------------------------------------
I think I read Miranda's report and I was about to be impressed,
when she started to talk about President Bush and also the person
interviewing her. I thought how can they be so stupid and talking
that way about the President and still have any intelligence so
I must admit I lost interest immediately.

Dear editors,
I have been reading your e-journal for some time. Obviously I have
resonated more or less with certain articles and authors contributions
than others. We all have personal preferences. However, I am entirely
appreciative of the venture, the dedication and the product. Wonderful!
Congratulations!
Sincerely,
Misha Norland

With reference to your e-mail, I read the articles of Dr. Miranda
Castro and her interview with Dr. Elain and I have to appreciate
for the knowledge, approach and experience of Dr. Miranda Castro
who has understood homeopathy so well and to share his experience
she wrote three important books too and she is also planning to
launch her software soon. I thank Hpathy to bring us more and more
good homeopaths from all over the world to share their experience.
With best regards
Sincerely yours
Dr. Sayeed Ahmad

Dear Editor,
Yes, I really enjoyed and appreciated the Miranda Castro articles
in the latest edition, and have downloaded them for future reference.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks and regards

Loved the Miranda Castro interview - can we have one with Rajan
Sankaran?
Michelle
-------------------------------------------
I love the articles, but I suppose like many people, have such limited
time to read through them, and often have to book mark and come
back to complete, which may or may not happen....
It would help if not every word of the chit-chat small- talk greetings,
etc were reprinted.
I find it a wee bit annoying (sorry), and it might be easier and
more inspiring to finish the article the 1st pass. Is it possible
just to get to the 'meat' of the articles related to our Homeopathy
education?
Just offering my own personal feedback since it was asked for.
Thank you!

Dear editor,

Thank you for all your informative information - This is so important
for all b/cthe pharmaceutical companies are killing persons with
all the chemicals - I like most persons enjoy this necessary information
since it means our lives what we put into our bodies and not worry
about side effects - I too will find more time to read this info.

Tank you for giving me the opportunity of giving my opinion on Mrs
Castro interview. I find it very interesting specially the part
of whystaphysagria chose Pulsatilla, Carcinosium, Arsenicum ou Natrum-muriaticum
for wife or girl friend in relationships. I had notice that with
few patients specially when Ihave to help them when they broke up.
I thing it would be interesting to know her opinion on how she manage
Carcinosinumafter a cancer when it seam to be the similimum. I first
read her in september 1997in Homeopathy Today. Please transmit my
congratulation to her. Tank you
Micheline Babin homeopath
-------------------------------------------
Dear editor - Your magazine has greatly offended me. I found the
Bush bashing at the end of the Castro interview totally out of place
& beyond outrageous! I read your articles to learn about Homeopathy
- certainly not for political insight. Bashing our president gave
Lewis, her daughter & Castro such pleasure that I find their
character on the sick side - (as we know, personal attacks speak
volumes about the attacker & very little about their target)
This was a display of not only mean spiritedness but unbridled arrogance
to assume that all readers would agree with them & find their
comments funny. I assume this article was approved by the editors
so shame on you too! Unless a published retraction & apology
are forthcoming I'll be canceling my subscription. Oh & btw
- George Bush's GPA at Yale was higher than Al Gore's - who's stupid
now?
Jan Lawson - perhaps your only Republican subscriber
-----------------------------------------------
I want to thank Rudi Verspoor for elucidating the lesser-understood
aspects of Hahnemann's teachings. Mr. Verspoor reminds us that all
the answers we seek can be found in the Organon and in Hahnemann's
other writings.We have to go back to the source which is sometimes
difficult to understand.
Thank you, Richard Levey
-----------------------------------------------
This is in regard to your request for evaluation. I am a new member
but have enjoyed every tidbit of information on your site. The Miranda
Castro article was very enlightening but so are many of the others.
Ihave spent hours reading the ezines and case histories and will
be doing so for many more months to come. I couldn't be been more
pleased that someone referred me to your website. Hope to enjoy
many more articles to come and learn a great deal. Many thanks for
a great site!

Miranda's articles on 10 remedies for seniors and,Antidote are
indeed very good. I am sure Homeopaths will find them useful.

Dear Editor,
It was a pleasure to read your interview with Miranda Castro. She
is a fountain of knowledge and her no nonsense approach which is
so accessible has done wonders for the homeopathic community as
more lay persons understand and use homeopathy daily due to Miranda.
Thank you Miranda and more articles from Miranda will always be
welcomed!
Kind Regards,
Pauline O'Reilly

Rudi Verspoor's article are absolutely great. I am amazed by his
precision of words, understanding of hahnemann and scholarly approach.

Hi there
I absolutely enjoyed this interview. I am inspired to take some

I have been reeading Ur Informative mail and find it quite usefull.
At the same time I do take the advantage of reading eBooks. But
I get disappointed when I try to read Lesser Writings by Boenninghausen,
because it is not available on the site, whereas it is mentioned
in the list. I hope u will try to set the system right.
Thanking U

Just rec'd January issue, and was THRILLED to see that Miranda
Castro is living, practices and teaches in Gainsville,Fl... I was

used to reside...but now she lives closer and will email her for
an address and an appointment. She is my answer to my prayer.
Appreciate your very informative magazine.
Thank you,
