| About fishes, it is revealed that they lay eggs
at a particular time during full moon. Each fish lays thousands
of eggs on the seashore and swims back in the current. It has been
observed that soon after the eggs convert into little fishes and
reach the ocean they flock around their own mother. Millions and
millions of fish and thousand times more new growths do not fail
to reach their respective places. It is all by natural intuition.
The science of homeopathy also seeks personal intimacy which later
on converts into natural intuition. It is only when we see things
superficially without love and nearness does the confusion creep
in and we feel trapped in the network of symptoms. If we are careful
with a bit of devotion, the science unfolds its glory and we find
it absolutely uncomplicated.
"Individualization" is one of the words which is widely
used in homeopathy. Homeopathy recognizes the individuality of each
patient by the process of case taking. Constitutional remedies are
then given to the patient by going through the long process of detailed
case-receiving and individualization of the patient as well as the
remedies. There is little use of "illness-specific" remedies
in homeopathy; but, there are certain situations where we cannot
overlook their use. In emergency situations when we don’t
have time to take a detailed case or when the patient’s condition
is deteriorating, there may not be time to take a case history.
In such cases we have to rely on specific remedies. In this regard,
below is a list of remedies with some of the specific symptoms which
they are known for:

These are some of the homeopathic remedies with their specific
indications which can help us to bring immediate relief to the patient
in cases of emergency. By giving immediate relief to the patient
we can win their trust over to homeopathy and us. But a homeopath
can never become solely dependent on the specific remedies because
only constitutional remedies can help us to get the permanent cure
of the disease!!
