What is Homoeopathy?

Homeopathic remedies are made out of natural substances – minerals, animals, plants and others - and are diluted and potentised so to work exclusively on the energetic level. The remedies are very potent as to bring about relief in smallest doses and they can be harmful, if misused. This healing modality based on the vitalistic approach was developed by Hahnemann 200 years ago.

Health and Homoeopathy

“In the healthy condition of man, the spiritual vital force (autocracy), the dynamis that animates the material body (organism), rules with unbounded sway, and retains all the parts of the organism in admirable, harmonious, vital operation, as regards both sensations and functions, so that our indwelling, reason-gifted mind can freely employ this living, healthy instrument for the higher purpose of our existence.” - Hahnemann, Organon, aphorism 9

For a classical homeopath (homeopath uniciste) symptoms – headache, fever, etc. are mere indications that the internal harmony of body and mind is altered. Of the symptoms developed a few are common – this is the medical diagnosis of the disease, e.g, asthma, arthritis, pertussis etc. The remaining symptoms are particular to the individual patient. It is with these that the homeopath determines the adequate remedy. Each case taking again demands the homeopath's skill to perceive the unique features of the patient to set his disease apart from a hundred cases suffering from exactly the same diagnosis.

Treatment

The first session: The technique of selecting the appropriate remedy become a highly evolved procedure: Whatever you experience and feel in regard to your complaints is listened to, and you are encouraged to describe this in depth. The first consultation generally takes two hours. The work of the homoeopath is to perceive, not to analyze or judge. Whatever comes - particularly strange, rare and peculiar sensations or symptoms - will help the homoeopath to perceive the individual experience more distinctly and to identify a Simillimum – a well selected deep acting homoeopathic remedy.

Thereafter: In due course you will then receive your remedy - either two pills to be taken once only, or drops to be repeated as prescribed. You are then asked to observe whatever changes occur in body and mind, dreams, mood, energy and of course changes in regard to the main complaint. A first short follow up of 15 minutes will usually take place 10 days after taking the remedy. Thereafter the development of your health will be monitored regularly for the next months.

Aim of the Treatment

The aim of this system of homoeopathy (also called “constitutional prescribing”) is to provide you with an efficient and easy-to-handle support for your – emotional and physical - health for many years. That this is possible is shown by the experience of countless patients who greatly benefit – don't miss your opportunity!

Our Background

Peter and Sigrid are very experienced homeopaths, both practicing over a decade. We both trained with the renowned “Bombay School” with Dr. Rajan Sankaran for over 10 years. Both of us are closely involved with translating Dr. Sankarans software and books into German. 

Sigrid is a healing practitioner (Heilpraktikerin) and is teaching homeopaths in Germany since 2003. She gives several 3 day seminars with videomaterial and Life Casetaking. Furthermore, she is teaching via email, undertakes supervision, and is involved in the Sankaran webgroup. Here in Auroville we train Aurovilians in this science of healing and conduct research projects f.ex. evolving new homoeopathic remedies.

“The Bombay School”- a group of classical homeopaths around Dr. Rajan Sankaran is pursuing avant-garde research since 25 years. 2002 a major breakthrough happened, which lead to a revolutionized casetaking and analysis method, which is spreading worldwide in the homoeopathic community since. Our work has become more sophisticated with this method and shows tremendously improved results. It is with gratitude to our teachers that we can offer you a first class classical homoeopathic treatment!

Homeopathy As Holistic Healing in the Context of Auroville

Especially since practicing with the new “Sensation method” our work is based directly on the yoga and philosophy of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo.

The following quotation describes our work quite adequately:

“Each spot of the body is symbolical of an inner movement; there is there a world of subtle correspondences. But this is a long and complex subject and we cannot enter into its details just now. The particular place in the body affected by an illness is an index to the nature of the inner disharmony that has taken place. It points to the origin, it is a sign of the cause of the ailment. It reveals too the nature of the resistance that prevents the whole being from advancing at the same high speed. It indicates the treatment and the cure. If one could perfectly understand where the mistake is, find out what has been unreceptive, open that part and put the force and the light there, it would be possible to re-establish in a moment the harmony that has been disturbed and the illness would immediately go.”

The Mother, Questions and Answers 1929–1931 (16 June 1929), Questions and Answers 1953, 23.9.1953

Sri Aurobindo speaks of gradations of consciousness in Matter in several chapters in “Life Divine”. This could refer to the process of dilution and potentisation which opens the substance to different levels, including emotions, dreams etc.
