    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="http://www.hpathy.com/homeopathyforums/member_profile.asp?PF=8196" rel="nofollow">Kaviraj</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> What is Vital Force<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 07 Nov. 09 at 15:53<br /><br />And then there is of course this:<br><b><font size="5">Biological Transmutations</font></b><br><p> Long before the discovery of "cold fusion" by Pons and Fleischman,other scientists had variously found phenomenal evidence ofnon-radioactive, low-energy transmutation of light elements in plant,animals and minerals. These reactions have come to be known as"biological transmutations" or "nuclido-biological reactions". Thisclass of nuclear reactions is of great importance to the progress ofhuman knowledge in the fields of physics, cosmology, biology, geology,ecology, medicine, nutrition and agriculture. <i><u><b>The exact mechanisms ofbiological transmutations remain unknown,</b></u></i> though a few theories havebeen proposed to explain them. <b>Biological transmutations exist andcannot be denied; they are the very core of living nature, which couldnot function without them.</b></p><p> The study of biological transmutation can be said to have begun inthe 17th century with the famous experiment by von Helmont, who grew awillow tree in a clay vase with 200 pounds of soil. After 5 years, hedried the soil and found that its weight had decreased by only 2ounces: "Water alone had, therefore, been sufficient to produce 160pounds of wood, bark and roots" (plus fallen leaves which he did notweigh). Presumably, there were some minerals in the water he fed to thetree. Nowadays we know that plants form carbohydrates from atmosphericcarbon dioxide, but their mineral content is derived from soil, notair. It may be possible, however, that the ORMEs (Orbitally RearrangedMonoatomic Elements), discovered by David Hudson in the 1980s, exist inthe atmosphere and are utilized by plants.</p><p> In 1799, the French chemist Vauquelin became intrigued by thequantity of lime which hens excrete every day. He isolated a hen andfed it a pound of oats which were analyzed for lime (CaO). Vauquelinanalyzed the eggs and feces and found five times more Ca was excretedthan was consumed. He concluded that lime had been created, but couldnot figure out how it happened. </p><p> In 1822, the English physiologist Prout studied <b>the increase ofcalcium carbonate inside incubating chicken eggs, and was able to showthat it was not contributed by the shell. </b></p><p> In 1831, Choubard germinated watercress seeds in clean glassvessels and showed that <b>the sprouts contained minerals which did notpreviously exist in the seeds. </b></p><p>	In 1844, Vogel also found evidence of <b>biological transmutation</b>. J.J. Berzelius reported the experiment in his <i>Treatise on Mineral, Plant and Animal Chemistry</i> (1849):</p><dir><p> He sprouted seeds of cress... in crushed glass deprived of sulfateor of any other sulfurous compound; he watered them with distilledwater, covered them with a glass cloche and analyzed the air of theroom, so as to determine the sulfur... A few months later, the adultplants with ripe seeds, were dried and burnt with a mixture ofpotassium nitrate and potassium carbonate; the result was that aquantity of sulfuric acid double that which was contained in the seedswas produced. These experiments demonstrate that either sulfur is not asimple element or that the source which produced the sulfur hasremained unknown, despite all the care which had been taken to discoverit...&nbsp;</p></dir><p>	Circa 1850, Lauwes and Gilbert observed an inexplicable variation in the amount of magnesium in the ashes of plants. </p><p> From 1875-1883, von Herzeele conducted 500 analyses which verifiedan increase in weight in the ashes of plants grown without soil in acontrolled medium. He concluded that, "Plants are capable of effectingthe transmutation of elements". His publications so outraged thescientific community of the time, they were removed from libraries. Hiswritings were lost for more than 50 years until a collection was foundin Berlin by Dr. Hauscka, who subsequently published von Herzeele'sfindings. </p><p> M. Baranger (Ecole Polytechnique, Paris) became intrigued with VonHerzeele's experiments, but he thought that the number of trials hadbeen too limited and the precautions against error were insufficient.Baranger decided to repeat the experiments with all possibleprecautions and a very large number of cases which would allow astatistical study. His research project lasted four years and involvedthousands of analyses. Baranger verified the content of P, K, and Ca ofvetch seeds before and after germination in twice-distilled water towhich pure calcium chloride was/was not added. Hundreds of lots of 7-10grams each were selected, weighed to 1/100th milligram, and graded,then germinated in a controlled environment. The plants were tested bythe methods described by A. Brunel-Tourcoin in his <i>Practical Treatise of Plant Chemistry</i>(1948). Baranger found a significant decrease in P in the Ca-series oftests. Non-germinated seeds and seeds germinated in the distilled watershowed no significant change in their levels of K. Those seeds treatedwith CaCl<sub>2</sub> showed a 10% increase in their K content. </p><p>	<b>None of the specialists who examined Baranger's work were able to find any experimental errors. </b>Baranger concluded: </p><p> These results, obtained by taking all possible precautions, confirmthe general conclusions proposed by V. Herzeele and lead one to thinkthat <b>under certain conditions the plants are capable of formingelements which did not exist before in the external environment.</b></p><p> &#091;The practical consequences&#093; cannot be underestimated... Certainplants would bring to the soil some elements useful for the growth ofother plants; this would lead us especially to define and revise thecurrent notions on fallows, rotations, mixed crop, fertilizers and themanuring of infertile soils. <b>Nothing prevents us from thinking thatcertain plants are capable of producing rare elements of industrialimportance...</b>.</p><p> In the sub-atomic field, <b>the plant supplies us with an example oftransformation which we are not capable of performing in the laboratory</b>without bringing into action particles of high-energy... It seems thatthe theoretical consequences in the field of sub-atomic physics are notnegligible.</p><p>So, now what, Alex?</p><p>Regards,</p><p>Kaviraj.<br></p><p><br></p><br>]]>

A theory which expresses mathematically the results of observed phenomena without paying detailed attention to their fundamental significance. &gt;<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Newton once said : "I do not invent hypotheses" and "I shall not mix conjectures with reliability" &gt; <br>&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Indeed, Newton did not invent the gravitational constant G and sadly, it turned out to be a mere inspired Phenomenological Theory, the way you aptly defined it.<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp; For a hypothesis to be put forward as a scientific hypothesis, the scientific method requires that one can test it. Scientists generally base scientific hypotheses on previous observations that cannot be satisfactorily explained with the available scientific theories. Even though the words "hypothesis" and "theory" are often used synonymously in common and informal usage, a scientific hypothesis is not the same as a scientific theory&nbsp;&nbsp; <br><br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The tale is told that Sir Issac Newton was snoozing under an apple tree when a fruit fell on his head to startle him from slumber. Newton's knock on his noggin inspired his Theory of Gravitation. Issac's own rude awakening made him the founding father of our modern mechanistic paradigm.<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>Has it ever been proved that gravity is proportional to mass?</b><br><br>No!&nbsp; This was an assumption that Newton made and others followed, but since nobody pretends to have actually weighed the Sun or the planets it has never been checked.&nbsp; Laboratory experiments have attempted to check it for small bodies, but (a) it is impossible to separate gravitational from electrostatic effects and (b) we have not been told all the facts.&nbsp; The various anomalies such as variations with temperature and with the coating on the object have not reached the text books. <br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp; <b>The Pioneers 10 and 11, spacecrafts deployed to explore the outer solar system, were reported to have experienced a constant anomalous acceleration toward the Sun<br></b><br>&nbsp;&nbsp; Perhaps even more relevant are a few chapters in Matt Edwards' book, "Pushing Gravity".&nbsp; Here you will find details of probably the only experimental tests ever to have been made that investigate the possibility of gravitational shielding.&nbsp; They were performed by Quirino Majorana round about 1920.&nbsp; Despite his best efforts they were inconclusive and (like Dayton Miller's work) need to be repeated, the results were compatible with a degree of "gravitational absorption" that would mean that the Sun could be about three times as massive as we currently think. <br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Issac never asked the question: "Who aimed the apple at my head?" Yet Newton believed the common sense of his time: Earth is a living creature.&nbsp; How did the apple get in the tree ?" What force mobilizes water and minerals to climb out of earth and assemble in orderly geometry as tree and its fruit? Why do trees grow up? Without thinking, most people insist light makes trees grow up. But even in darkness trees grow up, so phototropism doesn't effect the upthrust bud. A clue to answer this queer query is the very shape of Issac's apple, it's not really a sphere, but a donut without a hole -- the shape of a magnetic field.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; So what makes trees grow up is magnetism.&nbsp; Newton's gravitational constant G changes with the orientation of test masses by at least 0.054 per cent, according to Gershteyn's experiments, a remarkable and unprecedented finding that has landed his paper on the subject in the journal Gravitation and Cosmology. "The existence of such an effect requires simply a radically new theory of gravitation, because the magnitude of this effect dwarfs any of Einstein's corrections to Newtonian gravity." Isaac Newton first described G in 1687 as a fundamental component of his universal law of gravity. Two masses, Newton said, attract one another with a force proportional to their mass that falls off rapidly as the bodies move farther and farther apart. Albert Einstein later used G in his own field equations that fine-tuned Newton's original laws.<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The constant G puts precise limits on gravity's attractive force and appears in equations that describe any gravitational field, whether the field is between planets, stars, galaxies, microscopic particles or rays of light. Centuries of measurement have firmly fixed the value of G at 6.673 x 10 raised to the power minus 11 cubic meters per kilogram per square second.If G varies under any circumstances, scientists would have to rewrite virtually every physical law and a long-accepted feature of the Universe isotropy, or the condition that a body's physical properties are independent of its orientation in space.<br><br>``Gershteyn and his co-workers lay an extraordinary and very interesting claim which if proven true would change our view of the universe," Lev Tsimring, a research physicist with the Institute for Nonlinear Science at the University of California San Diego, told UPI.The experiment, he said, would seek to detect gravitational anisotropy the condition that the attractive force between bodies would vary with respect to their spatial orientation, not their separating distance.<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Experimental evidence that the gravitational constant varies with orientation<br><br>Authors: Mikhail L.

The constant of proportionality, G, is one of the fundamental constants of nature. As the precision of measurements increased the disparity between the values of G, gathered by different groups, surprisingly increased. This unique situation was reflected by the 1998 CODATA decision to increase the relative G uncertainty from 0.013% to 0.15 %. Our repetitive measurements of the gravitational constant (G) show that G varies significantly with the orientation of the test masses relative to the system of fixed stars, as was predicted by the Attractive Universe Theory. The distances between the test masses were in the decimeter range. We have observed that G changes with the orientation by at least 0.054%. <br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Swing a bucket of water at the end of rope and centrifugal forces pull it up and away. These forces result from the combined gravitational pull of all the distant stars and planets, Austrian physicist Ernst Mach wrote. Any change in the orientation of heavenly bodies would affect forces on matter everywhere, so powerful is their combined effect. The idea that G may change with respect to the way a body is positioned relative to the rest of the universe is simply an example of Mach's adage: matter out there affects forces right here. <br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; In view of the latest scientific findings from outer space, does Newton's gravitational constant G hold any water ?<br><br><br>With regards<br>&nbsp;&nbsp; Lew <br>]]>

    <![CDATA[<strong>Author:</strong> <a href="http://www.hpathy.com/homeopathyforums/member_profile.asp?PF=8726" rel="nofollow">furryboots</a><br /><strong>Subject:</strong> H1N1 Prevention for Animals<br /><strong>Posted:</strong> 07 Nov. 09 at 15:27<br /><br />Dear Truthfinder,<div><br></div><div>I am having some success with both prevention and advice on treatment of H1N1 in people and cats locally (which is Spokane - a hot spot for H1N1 where it is rife among university students, affecting several thousand confirmed cases and spreading to their families) &nbsp;and this includes an affected family (2 human cases of H1N1 confirmed there) whose 2 cats got H1N1 symptoms and have come right now.</div><div><br></div><div>The best preventive remedy is Aconitum Napellus 200C - in aqueous dosing. (1 tablet/globule in 3/4 cup water, succussed 100 times and dosed 0.5 ml for a cat, or &nbsp;5 ml for a human) . How often to dose it preventively is not a sure thing:</div><div>&nbsp;I am using it myself weekly as I am not often exposed, but I add a dose any day that is stressful such as yesterday when I lost my cat after 17 years.</div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;My university student friend (who helped me with getting symptoms of H1N1 first hand from confirmed cases - plus two cases of small children) LIVES with other students who are infected, and she is taking a dose per day unless she feels confident not to need it that day.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; So far 3 weeks and no infection for her or the other dozen or so students using Aco 200C preventively in her study area (making prosthetics). So the prosthetics lab is one of the few where there are only a handful of sick people - and they are sick from the vaccine only &nbsp;- much sicker than anyone with H1N1 flu. Students with H1N1 do not feel g reat but they attend class as usual, and get well AS LONG AS THEY DO NOT TAKE ASPIRIN OR TYLENOL. The upper case is intentional. That is what makes the virus attack the lungs, cause pleural effusion and lung scarring, and can lead to death.</div><div><br></div><div>The two cat cases in the family with H1N1, wre not confirmed by CDC as H1n1, but the symptoms are very clearly not cat flu of any other kind and do make sense for H1N1:</div><div>* High fever (helped with Ferrum phosphoricum 200C, aqueous every 5 mins for 5 to 10 doses till the fever STARTS to abate. Repeat if fever returns. This gives the body oxygen to handle the fever better without suppressing the problem and chasing it to the lungs. Fever was 103 to 105 F. This is high for a cat, as usually only FIP goes that high.</div><div>* Coughing with severe loss of breath (due to pleural effusion).&nbsp;</div><div>The only other coughing illness in cats is Bordetella bronchiseptica (BB) which has a different style of cough (BB cough is RARE and often absent, a hacking cough looking like a hairball attempt, but without any loss of ability to breathe), and has no pleural effusion but involves diffuse intracellular infection.&nbsp;</div><div>This cough was different and new in type for a cat.&nbsp;</div><div>* Nausea and vomiting.</div><div><br></div><div>The remedy for the H1N1 symptoms is Ipecac. This I am advising in Fibonacci series of potencies (8C made from 6C, then 13C, 21C, 34C, 55C, 89C, 144C, 233C) starting 8C, and progressing till the illness is overcome plus onje more potency for resistance building. Two students were too sick to wait for 6C order and started 30C, then went to 34C, then 55C, etc. They got well but took longer.</div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp; The two cats responded in 3 to 5 days on F series..</div><div><br></div><div>Aconitum alone will handle both prevention AND early symptoms as it is a pretty close match to symptoms overall. &nbsp;Ipecac is good to add once nausea or cramps or vomiting - gastro-intestinal issues - set in.</div><div><br></div><div>Poptency advised is as above.</div><div>There is a myth going around that animals or birds need different potencies from people. That is not true. But the dose SIZE is different.</div><div>So for examplke I'd dose a small bird with one drop only, a cat with ten drops (half a ml) a human with a teaspoon and an elephant wihit a tablespoon.</div><div>I ALWAYS use aqueous dosing.</div><div><br></div><div>With F potencies:</div><div>When you make them from whatever low enough potency you can find, you dilute 1 in 100 for each dilution and succuss TEN (not 100) times, per dilution.</div><div><br></div><div>Be aware that the F potencies work at least twice as fast as regular C potencies, and that each multiplies by the prior one, &nbsp;so the strength of each is more than that of a regular C series. (For example if you dose 8C, then 13C, you are getting the effect of 8x13= 104C and so on.)</div><div>&nbsp;Be sure to watch for improvement and STOP dosing then or you will see aggravation pretty sharply. you can always start dosing again IF symptoms return - and again later once extra for resistance building. It is VERY important to do the resistance building with H1N1 after curing it as it DOES otherwise have a tendency to return worse than before.</div><div><br></div><div>I hope this is helpful.</div><div><br></div><div>For homeopaths reading this, here are the rubrics I put together from H1N1 cases. Do NOT see this as a repertorization!!! &nbsp;It is a list of H1N1 rubrics combining small child and pregnant woman (the two highest risk groups as they need more oxygen than others, and are growing faster) factors:</div><div><br></div><div><div>MIND - FEAR - suffocation, of - night</div><div>MIND - INDUSTRIOUS</div><div>MIND - NIBBLE; desire to</div><div>MIND - RESTLESSNESS - busy</div><div>THROAT - INFLAMMATION - accompanied by - cough</div><div>THROAT - PAIN - burning</div><div>THROAT - PAIN - raw; as if</div><div>STOMACH - VOMITING - violent</div><div>RESPIRATION - DIFFICULT - accompanied by - cough</div><div>RESPIRATION - DIFFICULT - children; in</div><div>RESPIRATION - DIFFICULT - pregnancy agg.; during</div><div>COUGH - PREGNANCY agg.; during</div><div>COUGH - SUFFOCATIVE</div><div>COUGH - SUFFOCATIVE - children; in - stiff and blue in the face; child becomes</div><div>CHEST - EMPYEMA - pleura; after inflammation of</div><div>CHEST - GRANULOMA lungs</div><div>CHEST - INFLAMMATION - Pleura</div><div>CHEST - INFLAMMATION - Pleura - acute</div><div>CHEST - INFLAMMATION - Pleura - exudative</div><div>FEVER - ACCOMPANIED BY - Stomach; complaints of</div><div>FEVER - BURNING heat</div><div><br></div><div>If you folllow these up in various specific case repertorizations, you will see the following:</div><div>* Aconitum napellus is the hands down winner for prevention, covering the common symptoms AND the pleural effusion complication caused when aspirin etc is used.</div><div>* Ipecac is the most useful general genus epidemicus during H1N1 infection without complications, especially for children.</div><div>* For pregnant women Nux-v and Puls are better than Ipec if complcations occur.</div><div>* Where pleural effusion complication is present consider Nux-v.</div><div><br></div><div>Ipecac covers these typical symptoms:</div></div><div><div>MIND - FEAR - suffocation, of - night</div><div>MIND - INDUSTRIOUS</div><div>MIND - NIBBLE; desire to</div><div>MIND - RESTLESSNESS - busy</div><div>THROAT - INFLAMMATION - accompanied by - cough</div><div>THROAT - PAIN - burning</div><div>THROAT - PAIN - raw; as if</div><div>STOMACH - VOMITING - violent</div><div>RESPIRATION - DIFFICULT - accompanied by - cough</div><div>RESPIRATION - DIFFICULT - children; in</div><div>COUGH - PREGNANCY agg.; during</div><div>COUGH - SUFFOCATIVE</div><div>COUGH - SUFFOCATIVE - children; in - stiff and blue in the face; child becomes</div><div>FEVER - ACCOMPANIED BY - Stomach; complaints of</div><div>FEVER - BURNING heat</div><div><br></div></div><div><br></div><div>Note:</div><div>Gels is a good remedy for MOST types of flu (including seasonal) and is similar to Influenzinum. BUT _ This H1N1 is very different. People go to school, go to work, want to get things done despite feeling awful, and CAN do so. &nbsp;Hence the mind sx above.</div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;Gels by contrast does not match H1N1. Gels covers a dreary, dopey, drowsy, depressed state where the person has chills up the spine and wants to be in bed as they ache too much to move. Does not fit here.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp;</div><div>So bottom line - I suggest Aconitum napellus 200C preventively and Ipecac curatively, with Nux-v optionally in some complications.</div><div><br></div><div>Hope this helps.</div><div>Namaste,</div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp;Irene de Villiers&nbsp;</div><div>(principal, IVYHOM International Veterinary Homeopathy School)&nbsp;</div><div><br></div><div>REFS:</div><div>F series: see HPathy magazine Dr J Rozencwajg author, Oct 2008 &amp; Sept 2009.</div><div>Rubrics: Radar software version 9.1&nbsp;</div>]]>
