Until this point it is what Flora Dabbah described.
And in Paragraph 15 Hahnemann said:
“ The affection of the morbidly deranged, spirit-like dynamis
(vital force) that animates our body in the invisible interior,
and the totality of the outwardly cognizable symptoms produced
by it in the organism and representing the existing malady, constitute
a whole; they are one and the same. The organism is indeed the
material instrument of the life, but it is not conceivable without
the animation imparted to it by the instinctively perceiving and
regulating vital force (just as the vital force is not conceivable
without the organism), consequently the two together constitute
a unity, although in thought our mind separates this unity into
two distinct conceptions for the sake of facilitating the comprehension
of it..”
This seems to respond then to Aristotle’s concept of Substance
and Accident:
The Substance (from Latin: substantia, sub:
under, and stare: be (estar), what’s below, the essence
or entity of something
The Substance is what is called “a this” like men, animals,
plants (“what is not said of a subject”)
The thing that exists in itself and not in another.
Accidents are only "ways of being this". Accidents
are the ways in which the substance manifests.
The thing which does exist in another being.
Words, if taken in isolation, express one of the following things:
substance, quantity, quality, relation, location, time, position,
action, habit, passion.
If, in this particular case, the word is applied to the human
or animal, we can say:
These are the modalities, modes, ways, and circumstances in which
any suffering or thing that happens to us men or to our animals
can combine and transform into symptoms.
We could say, for example:
· Usually
we all suffer hunger, thirst, sleepiness, tiredness, fear, boredom,
hurry, impatience, pain.
· We all
remain sitting, standing, lying, walking or running, or can bend
and turn in the bed, alternately, and according to our physical
ability.
· We all
sometimes like to stretch the body, to lay in bed, rest.
· We all
are more or less jealous, loving, bossy, orderly, meticulous,
industrious, ill-humored.
· We all
are affected by changes, death and financial loss, journeys, farewell.
· Sometimes,
we all like to be alone, or together with friends, to get visits,
to watch and be watched.
· We can
all crush the finger in a door, stumble, take something forward,
or fall.
· We all
are more or less sleepy on waking, or drowsy after eating.
· All
babies need more attention in the evening, and we are all tired
at the end of the day.
· We all
like to get home, to take one’s clothes and shoes off, and to
have a warm shower.
· We all
like to listen to music, to talk, listen, converse, and also to
remain silent.
· We all
perspire, suffer from heat, cold or tiredness.
Any of these situations
is our life.
Isolated or combined
at random does not mean anything.
United, with each other,
in a fixed way, constitutes a symptom.
We give now, if
possible, an example of accidents of the substance Anhalonium
Lewinii for each of the classifications

QUALITY
Aristotle divides the quality into four groups:

subject is susceptible to alteration: THE PASSIBLE QUALITY AND
PASSION

parts
b) POTENCE AND IMPOTENCE: That which the substance
has immediately at it’s disposal for the operations. The immediate

PASSION
What he suffers reluctantly, what he suffers.
The ideas and visions penetrate the consciousness of the individual
in a quite rapid succession; they seem to impose themselves on
the individual who cannot control them. He is unable to resist
them and is forced to listen and answer them verbally. This is
as if the logical mind would lose control and as if the subconscious
or part of the supraconscious mind would take command.

From all these descriptions we can say that Anhalonium has the
following big themes:
GROUPING OF THEMES OF ANHOLONIUM LEWINII
1. He himself and the environment
2. Visions
3. Cosmic egotism
4. Execution capacity
5. Coldness, pallor - warm water
6. Self care, I feel very good, comfortable.
7. Disasters.
8. I must take care of, and guide animals. Overburdened by
responsibility. It is as if had done something dishonest.
PILLARS
I. He himself and the environment
II. Visions - distortion and confusion of senses
III. Indiscrimination
Seeing the different modalities we can make a detailed analysis
of the suffering and the reactive attitudes, it is enough to read
them and to know:
How does he suffer ? The discrimination of the environment is
missing: sensitivity to odors, I felt I could suffocate, gives
us the material about how he suffers. I had a bad conscience because
if I hadn’t been so selfish and had considered his urgency, the
dog would be still alive. Overburdened by responsibilities, sad,
as if had done something dishonest.
How does he defend himself when he flees ?
Avoids decision, irresolute.
Submerges underwater.
As in alterlysis, the modality of the relation is described is
follows: aversion to being touched. Mistrust, thinks that they
laugh at him.
How will he be if he assumes the attribute? He is God, (immaterial),
egocentric introversion, observes himself. And he is in everything:
Increased orientation toward the environment. Attracted to the
rocks.
When it tries to impose: Handles everything concentrated now.
Goes swimming in the sea
And conclude that: What does he think got lost.
Self identification with the environment. Loss of the existential
horizon. Distortion of perceptions, shapes, space, all objects.
Confounds present with eternity. Hopelessness. Anxiety about death.
Loss of execution. Ceased outside activity. Lost in the middle
of nowhere.
Wanted to be like God who is in all things, present and as the
cause of their being.
Hypothesis
That God is transcendent (distinct from the world, a, 1 ad 3),
but is in all things because everything is subject to his power,
because everything is present to his eyes (“presence”), and because
he acts in everybody as a cause of their being (“essence”, a.3).
Transcendence and immanence do not oppose in God, because he
is distinct and intimate at once (a.1, ad 1).
This is so because God is simple (q.3) and perfect (q.4); he
is not “circumscribable”, he is infinite, and therefore he can
be everywhere (q.7; q, 8)
C. Example of a patient
C.E., female, 53 years old, professional, three children, two
grandchildren.
She has received Anhalonium six years ago. I brought this
history because this patient led us to study this medicine many
years ago.
There are many symptoms that the patient brought to the consultation
after taking the medicine. The patient did not consider them as
such. Only when the symptoms were cured, she noticed that she
liked more to live in this new way:
Seeing the reality, without feeling the need to flee. Without
adapting to others indiscriminately.
Modalities
- Accidents of the patient C.E.
Quantity
Quality
Habit or capacity:
· Clairvoyance, premonition.
· She noticed that
she is more in the reality with medication.
· She began to swim,
they noticed in the “Ateneo de la Juventud” that she was swimming,
walked with a swimsuit now, took the handbag, went, and made something.
· I moved to my own
house.
· When I discovered
that my job was useful for someone else. I made an appointment
with a woman who was dead, the husband appointed her to the studio,
and I suggested him to help.
· I also felt relief
when I put my hands to cure, what I see is what I asked for, people
cure.
Disposition:
· Absent-minded.
· He says that he
gets dispersed from every little thing.
· Her husband does
not see her.
· She adapted herself
to others: They did not let her go to make gymnastics or did not
bring her to the training.
· I feel something
that I do not like.
· I can not verbalize
what I am feeling.
· This indifference
always reciprocates; there are no quarrels, nothing.
· I realized that
this is what happens to me: I do not notice what bothers me.
After medication:
· I have to cover
my eyes because it was so much that I saw in this new state.
· After medication:
She did not use her glasses so often, and now she puts them on
when necessary to see.
· Before she did not
dream, now she dreams every day. Her dreams were strange and sometimes
there were premonitions and such things, but now she dreams.
· She thinks she
was better at work. For her the work is a great challenge, because
she started when she was major, it made her afraid, and the fear
paralyzed her. She could not do it, now she demands it herself,
has done it now, and it has helped her a lot.
· I also felt relief
when I put my hands to cure, what I see is what I asked for, people
cure. I feel something that I do not like, I can not verbalize
what I feel.
Passible quality:
· Cloudy vision with
headache.
· Menses brought her
pain at the back of the waist, she had to remain bending double.
Felt anxiety before, did not know what to do.
· The pain in the
leg is like an insensibility.
· I see that my hands
and feet weaken when I’m walking, I don’t know.
· Each time when I'm
nervous my hands are warmer.
· At times I feel
my body revives.
· The ear ameliorated.
Potence and Impotence:
· When she is very
nervous she weakens. Finally she noticed that she got to be more
constipated. She noticed this last week, she was a little constipated.
· She eats everything,
everything she likes, but she eats a little accelerated, swallows.
She needs to eat less for the hunger. They work a lot in the studio,
sometimes she skips lunch, and only asks for little things. She
tries to eat food, not junk food.
· Almost breakfasts
nothing, at lunch a cake, a sponge cake, and at night she eats
steak with puree or a banana, or an alfajor
[1] . In any case she eats little, a platter with pasta and
tomato. Anhalonium p.3
· She likes water,
milk and pizza, organic food. Belly full, heart happy.
Passion:
· Her fears are like
an obsession, and give her the impression of black waters. If
it is very cold, she is terrified by a landscape of sea and dark
waters.
· She did not discriminate
herself from her environment, she lived the outside as if it were
herself.
Now she has two new attitudes: One was to use glasses to see
because she began to perceive the environment in another way,
accompanied by the necessity to cover her eyes because the reality
appeared to be so new and much. Before, she did not know that
the environment and she were different things.
Although she lived with her family and had company at work, she
was isolated, in a shell, introverted, absent-minded, enclosed
in her world. With Anhalonium she could discriminate herself,
and finally she broke away from her husband as well as her partner.
For many years she enjoys:
· The power to take
decisions: before medication she was unable to make
these decisions.
· The ability to discriminate
herself from the rest: she bought a house for herself, another
for her studio.
· She takes care of
others.
These are the symptoms for which I prescribed
Anhalonium to h er six years ago:

Prophetic dream: To be/of being in a house with ten young women
and a male guru. He tells us that the planet is going to explode,
and that we have to kill ourselves before this happens. We shall
sit in lotus position and hold our arms up in a particular mudra
[2] and only direct our spirits towards the death. I realize
that this is easy to do, but then I get aware: Eh! I don’t want
to do this. I ask another girl if she really wants to do this
and she replies that she doesn’t want to. So we escape and I feel
relieved. We run and arrive at a section of the sea where the
ice is melting. I jump as far as I can, trying to reach an iceberg,
but I fall in the water. It is surprisingly warm, and really pleasant.
I catch a stick to push me upwards, which is also warm. Even the
iceberg is warm. Swimming sea lions come to me, I feel very happy.
