| Résumé
The objective of this work is to demonstrate the practical importance
of a method proposed by Dr. Masi Elizalde, which allows us to understand
symptoms in a dynamic way. With this method we can understand the
sense and function of each symptom, and thereby the cause of the
disease.
The knowledge of miasms permits us to follow the evolution of the
case and whether its development is towards cure. This method also
allows us to treat every species of animal, and to offer them a
better quality of life.
This case begins with the choice of a remedy according to the symptoms
which include : Resentment about past unpleasant occurrences, aversion
to company, emaciation and sadness. During the evolution of the
case the chosen remedy was confirmed as correct. It solved the clinical
ailments of the patient and also had a dynamic correspondence with
the patient’s theme.
One day this chicken started to withdraw and did not eat from the
owner’s hand anymore. She accepted food only if her owner
threw it on the ground, and even then she did not eat much.
Natrum muriaticum has this theme of independence.
In order to preserve her life she does not want to be dependent
(on the conservative power of a God who gives out of mercy). She
wants to preserve herself.
At another moment of her life she presented the following behavior:
She began to take care of the dogs, to lie down with them, and to
look after them. She tried to put them under her wings if a cat
approached to attack and when food was given to her. When the dogs
were eating, she constantly took care that nobody got near them.
The Natrum muriaticum egotrophy demonstrates that
she is the donor of vitality, of mercy and conservation, not only
for herself but for others also. She is the leader, so the others
accept her direction, which leads them through life or conserves
it.
Having a model that permits us to understand the remedy and the
patient, not only through their symptoms, but also in terms of their
reason for being, allows us to treat any species of animal and offer
it a better quality of life (so it can achieve the highest purpose
of its existence).
History
Cocota was found fallen in a hole on the roadside. She was still
a pullet, fragile, very thin and frightened. She was very shy and
did not like being near anyone. As the days passed she was more
and more isolated, lying in a corner, very sad, had difficulty breathing,
and had a secretion in her throat which made breathing and eating
difficult (so that she did not eat anything). She remained on her
roost, resting on her chest and with an open beak. She was very
thin, had a dry chest, and increased urine. These symptoms suggested
micoplasmosis.
It was homeopathically diagnosed that this chicken was in the egolytic
miasm, and was completely at the mercy of her suffering (sad, isolated,
emaciated, powerless, and without desire to eat, lifeless in a corner
and pensive). Besides the analysis of her physical symptoms we had
to ask the following questions:
What is her suffering? What happened to the chicken to make her
like this ? We shall not be prejudiced and influenced by the fact
that a chicken has a small brain and is used for food.
As we can see with this case, she and all other creatures have
their individuality and their own way of feeling and acting in this
world.
We knew that she probably fell from a truck where she was en route
to be slaughtered, or that she had escaped from an Afro-Brazilian
sacrifice ritual, as she was found in a corner besides a busy road.
This fact already represents a real trauma for this particular chicken.
How may she have perceived this situation?
The following symptoms were taken into consideration:
Dwells on past disagreeable occurrences (resentment
about past unpleasant occurrences)
Aversion to company
Emaciation
Sadness
The symptoms of sadness, isolation, emaciation (withering), probably
brooding, resentment about past events, lead us to the choice of
the homeopathic remedy Natrium muriaticum.
On the day following the remedy she was much better. She was eating
again and her respiration was better. She was less frightened and
she came nearer. She got better each day. Her integration into the
family was complete. She appeared when she was called, started to
eat out of the onwer’s hand and acted free and happy in the
yard.
She was better until one day when she again began to detach, did
not eat out of the hand anymore, but only ate when it was put on
the ground, and even then did not eat much. It was hard to leave
the roost, and her respiration was altered again.
Observing her behavior confirmed the previously chosen remedy,
which was prescribed according to the symptoms mentioned above.
It was confirmed dynamically.
Again, Natrum muriaticum has this theme of independence.
In order to preserve her life she does not want to be dependent
on the conservative power of a God who gives out of mercy. She wants
to preserve herself.
A new dose of the remedy was prescribed. She immediately got better,
and returned to her normal activities, accepted again the presence
of persons with whom she lived and the food offered to her.
But after some time had passed there happened something new in
the chicken’s life: the birth of 7 dogs. These animals were
born and grew up close to her. She began to take care of the dogs,
to lie down with them, picked them up. She tried to put them under
her wings if a cat approached to attack her and when food was given
to her. When the dogs were eating she let them eat and constantly
took care that nobody got near them.
What was funny, amusing, and different to layman’s eyes in
the beginning, soon transformed into something dangerous and exaggerated
for the life of this chicken.
One day, the chicken was found injured, with a large wound on her
neck. She had lost a lot of blood, but even then she was near her
dog’s children, who had attacked her in innocence.
The lesions were so serious that it seemed everything was lost,
and that nothing could be done for her. Nevertheless, another dose
of Natrum muriaticum was given, which again proved to be her medicine.
She got better, and the large wound healed completely.
The Natrum muriaticum egotrophy demonstrates that she
is the donor of vitality, of mercy and conservation, not only for
herself, but for others also. She is the leader, so the others accept
her direction, which leads them through life or conserves it.
This chicken in her egotrophy even tried to take care of and to
save animals which were different from her own species. When her
wound was completely cured, she was also cured…from her egotrophy,
and her exaggerated way of reacting to an imaginary loss.
Today, she still likes to be close to the dogs, who always allow
her to be near. She looks after them, but not in an exaggerated
way that would make her a slave of her actions.
This story demonstrates that we have a model that allows us to
understand the remedy and the patient, not only from their symptoms,
but also at the level of a reason for being.
All animals, including chickens, deserve a life where they can
achieve the higher purposes of their existence. Therefore we can
consider COCOTA to be a very lucky chicken.
