The Synergy in Homoeopathy

You see a triangle on the cover page.The apex of triangle is the Genius.Genius here means the prevailing spiritor distinctive character of something.This applies to the patient and also tothe remedy.

This general quality of the patient andof the remedy has also been called,by various authors in homoeopathy,essence, keynote, soul, red line, or thegrand generals.

But I prefer to use the word ‘Genius’,to honour the great master, Dr C.M.Boger, who wrote.

“The strain which runs through every pathogenetic symptom complex has been

called the genius of the drug.”

We need to keep the genius of the patient and of the remedy always on the backdrop

when we are trying to match the two.

The first few lines about each remedy in Boger’s Synoptic Key usually give a very

good idea of the remedy’s genius.

The other two sides of the triangle are:

 Facts – as found in the characteristic symptoms, in the proving and in Repertory

rubrics.

 Concepts/Experience – the Sensation; data from the Kingdom, Miasm, and Source.

One can see that all three elements – the Genius, Sensation, and Symptom – are

mutually interdependent. In reality they are three ways of viewing a unified whole,

and this differentiation is made only for the purpose of understanding. The circle

in the centre of the triangle represents this unity of which the three elements are

expressions
