...MIASMS...

Dr. Joe Rozencwajg, NMD.

Miasms, Shmiasms, what is all the fuss about?

Revisiting the concept with a 21st Century approach, and that includes Psora

too....

What is a Miasm, after all?

• Hahnemann in CD: the deep seated effects of

an infection (in the larger sense of the term).

• Modern science and genetics confirms • Modern science and genetics confirms

Hahnemann’s genius: at least 8% of our genes

are similar to retroviruses (Zimmer) and RNA

viruses are integrated in our genome (Levine),

they are related to Ebola and Marburg!

Sankaran’s miasms are all infectious except for the Acute.

• Typhoid

• Psora

• Malaria

• Ringworm• Ringworm

• Sycosis

• Cancer

• Tuberculosis

• Leprosy

• Syphilis/Luesis

And then, there are the new miasms, infectious and not

infectious...

• Aids

• Ebola/Marburg

• EMF

• Nuclear• Nuclear

• Vaccines

• Cellphone and other of the same bottle

• Heavy metals (not the music)

• Noise pollution (including heavy metal music)

• All forms of pollution...

Let’s make some sense of that mishmash of confusion....

...and do that according to my Mantra: Simply, Demystify, Explain.

Let us....

• Rename

• Re-classify

• According to today’s understanding of

physiology and pathologyphysiology and pathology

• Using concepts that were not present in

Hahnemnan’s time

• Hence he did the best that could be done with

the tools available

1. Pathogenic “Miasms”.

• Those that bring diseases...

• But they are not all “infections”

• Hence the new name:

PATHOGENIC OCCURRENCES.

Pathogenic occurrences subdivisions,

recycled as Perturbations or Maladies.

• Acquired/Extrinsic Perturbations/Maladies (formerly

Acquired Miasms).Acquired Miasms).

• Ancestral/Intrinsic Perturbations/Maladies (formerly

Ancestral Miasms)

Acquired perturbations = NBWS.

Examples:

• Acquired Psora

• Acquired Sycosis

• Acquired Luesis• Acquired Luesis

• All treated with their situational remedy/ies, now

NBWS, treated with their nosodes.

• The patient has acquired a “miasm” that if left

alone will lead to chronic disease

Ancestral Perturbations: familial & genetic.

• My own example of Tuberculinum.

• Familial histories of recurrent pathologies, “it is in the family, it is in our genes...”is in the family, it is in our genes...”

• The symptoms disappear with the Simillimum(situational remedy) but the pathology recurs in some or other form = the original Hahnemannian Miasms (needing nosodes).

SO why on Earth is it so difficult to get rid of the basic

three “miasms” and especially why is Psora almost

indestructible?

Yes, I am asking you..........................

Because they are not real “miasms”, dudes...

fact:

• Of all the diseases rife during his time,

Hahnemann chose Psora, Sycosis and Luesis.

Why not Malaria, Leprosy, anything else?

• Apparently, he instinctively focused on

primary disturbances of physiological

functions.

And so does Grant Bentley...

The triangle morphs into the 3 axes.

And looks like this:

• Sycosis is described as building up: it is ANABOLISM, construction

• Luesis is described as destructive: it is CATABOLISM, destruction

• Psora is described as functional: it is the ENERGETIC, VIBRATIONAL LEVEL, INTENSITY, function, order and disorder, level of entropy (entropy being understood not in the old way of “disorder” but in the modern understanding “organised activity”, with normal fluctuations and pathological extremes)

Psora, Sycosis, Luesis are in fact

METABOLIC MIASMS.

• But metabolism is a normal phenomenon that

can at times become pathologicalcan at times become pathological

• Hence the new denomination:

METABOLIC PATHWAYS.

2. Metabolic Pathways:

• Psora = Energy, Vitality

• Sycosis = Anabolism

• Luesis = Catabolism

And that is why you cannot get rid of them, they

are physiological functions! Their previous, old

denominations lead to confusion. You remove

them, you die!

The appearance of a healthy person.

P = Psora = Energy, vitality

L = Luesis/Syphilis = Catabolism

S = Sycosis = Anabolism

It is of course not static, it

vibrates and changes during

the day according to the

metabolic needs, within the

range of normality.© YoniGraphics Ltd.

Summary.

• 1. Pathogenic occurrences:

– Acquired perturbations/maladies

– Ancestral perturbations/maladies

Those are the “real” former Miasms.Those are the “real” former Miasms.

• 2. Metabolic Pathways:

– Energy

– Anabolism

– Catabolism

Those are “anomalies” in the metabolism.

Summary.

• This covers the whole physiopathology

• This dispenses with the old terminology of

“miasms”

• This removes confusion as to how the • This removes confusion as to how the

presentation of a disease has to be approached:

a metabolic disorder, a personal event or a

familial predisposition. They can happen

together, but now you have the tools to

differentiate.
