CHRONIC DISEASES_PSORA KENTS PHILOSOPHY
KENTS PHILOSOPHY

PSORA- Dr. J.T. Kents Views It is the beginning of all physical sickness It is the foundation of sickness How it came on Earth? Why Human race got susceptible to Psora? Go to the very Primitive wrong of human sickness The very first sickness of Human race is Spiritual
FIRST SIN/WRONG FIRST PRIMITIVE SICKNESS
From spiritual sickness the human race progressed to true susceptibility to psora This laid foundation for other disease Psora is similar to itch It is a folly; (myth) if you remove mite; itch the cause is destroyed Itch- simple form of psora Asthma- complex form of psora
Psora has small beginning, rapid progress At first it was simple It then became more complex The skin eruption was removed & thus psora was driven more deeper to vital organs The diseases such as Epilepsy, insanity, Diabetes, are due to underlying psora
EPILEPSY DIABETES
Dr Hahnemann took 12 Years, to discover the cause of Chronic diseases He went Generations back Took detailed case history Short acting medicines contained counterparts of the acute manifestations But at the end disease progressed Dr Hahnemann wanted to solve the Mystery
Old school classifies the Disease into ACUTE, SUBACUTE, CHRONIC Any disease more than 6 weeks is sub-acute He said chronic disease is chronic from beginning & Acute disease is acute from beginning He was astonished to find at the end of a certain length of time no progress was made with his remedies in chronic diseases
Dr Hahnemann concluded all such cases had underlying chronic diseases, - chronic miasm, which has a tendency to progress & only with the life of a a patient He discovered patients dying with the disease of pthisis had H/o vesicular eruption in between fingers He had in his mind correlation of suppression & outcome of more severe disease
With series of observations & experiences of curative Rx of large no. of cases of sickness by applying principles he noted that diseases get well in the reverse order of their coming Patient said old trouble has come back We must bring these oldest troubles back to their original manifestation
Eruption is simple form of psora Complicated forms of psora are those that are inherited Parents had eruption is simple for of psora Child gets complex form Here you will not see vescicular forms of psora but disease approximately simple will return if the vital energy of the economy is turned into under
Modern medicine stops everything that appears upon the surface but damage done to patient if this outward signs are stopped & psora is pushed on & made worse, complex from years to years. Affection of liver, kidney, brain, lungs is localization of psora Psora ultimates in organs
HAHNEMANN’S PSORA THEORY B.K. SARKAR
B. K. SARKAR BOOK-
HAHNEMANN’S PSORA THEORY IMPLIES- Seven-eights of all chronic diseases are the consequences of an infection with a skin disease, that has been driven off or removed by external treatment. The skin disease in identical with what we call itch thought it presents itself under many different forms. Every infectious chronic disease is a scabies or a degeneration of it None of these seven-eights of all chronic diseases are curable, save by the use of a certain set of medicines that were mostly unknown or unused before Hahnemann’s time
Itch, properly so-called & all the varieties of skin diseases, Hahnemann includes under that term, are only safely curable by internal remedies & their treatment by external remedies is fought with the greatest danger to the patient.
GREATEST CONTRIBUTION OF HAHNEMANN THROUGH HIS PSORA THEORY CONSISTS IN ASSERTING-
That the conception of Psora is more a statement of fact than a theory: That chronic diseases like all acute contagious diseases depend on a “Contagium Vivim” when his contemporaries did not think of ‘living agent’ as causative factors for diseases; That skin diseases may have systemic infections & systemic diseases may have skin lesions; & the skin is an immunising organ & the cutaneous eruptions should not be treated too violently;
That this theory has paved the way for conception of miasmatic states in a wider sense than that of bacterial infection promulgated by Pasteur & Koch; That this theory helped the pioneering work In the field of preventive medicine after solving mystery of incidence of epidemic diseases.
