Written by Alize Timmerman

C4 Protocol. The following is the protocol for the C4 Trituration / Proving. Use a group of 10-15 people. Everyone relates their experience in the group. For example how does the substance feel? Any thoughts or association which may come up. Video the event and stimulate one another.

The following is the protocol for the C4 Trituration / Proving:

You can do a group meditation before you start. Use a group of 10-15 people.

You will need:

  • 6+ pieces of white paper for every person, so that everyone can immediately write down their experiences
  • 100 grams milk sugar (this is about a handful), divide into 3 equal portions.
  • A clean mortar and pestle
  • 1 gram of the proving substance

Put 1/3 of the milk sugar and the substance in the mortar:

  • 7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
  • 7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
  • Add another 1/3 of the milk sugar
  • 7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
  • 7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
  • Add another 1/3 of the milk sugar
  • 7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
  • 7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping

This is the C1. C1 works on the level of needs and instincts on the physical, organic level of nourishment, etc.

NOTE:

Discussion of experiences. Everyone relates their experience in the group. For example how does the substance feel? Any thoughts or association which may come up. Video the event and stimulate one another to relate and share experiences amongst the group. Write your experiences down as well.

======================================================

Empty the bowl into a vial and label it C1.

Repeat the procedure now with the same bowl and the next 100 grams of milk sugar divided into 3 equal portions. Some of the substance is left on the walls of the bowl. Add 10 grams from the C1 vial and add 1/3 of the next batch of milk sugar.

7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
Add another 1/3 of the milk sugar
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
Add another 1/3 of the milk sugar
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping

This is the C2 which works on our emotions.

Empty the bowl into a vial, label it with C2.

Take 10 grams of the C2 into the bowl for the next round.

Have your discussion about the C2 trituration. Share your experiences and write them down.

Divide another batch of 100 grams of milk sugar, add 1/3 of this milk sugar to the bowl:

7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
Add another 1/3 of the milk sugar
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
Add another 1/3 of the milk sugar
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping

This is the C3 which works on the mental and intellectual level (thinking, magical, mythical).

Empty the bowl into a vial and label it C3. Take 10 grams of the C3 into the bowl for the next round of trituration.

Discuss the C3 trituration by sharing of experiences and writing it down.

Take the last batch of 100 grams of milk sugar and divide into 3 equal portions. Add 1/3 of the milk sugar to the bowl.

7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
Add another 1/3 of the milk sugar
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
Add another 1/3 of the milk sugar
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping
7 minutes of trituration then 3 minutes of scraping

This is the C4 which works on our spiritual level; the condemnation about good and bad no longer exists. This is the spiritual world. C4 is destiny.

Discuss your experiences. Video the event and write your thoughts and feelings down.

Save the substance in the bowl in a vial and label it C4.

To make the potencies:

You can use what is stuck to the walls of the mortar by dissolving it in water. Or you dissolve the substance a bit in water, give 6 succussions then empty it and fill it half with water. Repeat this 6 times. That gives you the C10/4 (you count potentizing and also the 4 steps of the trituration)
Use the purest possible water.
Put a few drops of the standard potency in a bottle with alcohol.
That is what you use to wet the pellets.
Put the pellets in a 10 ml bottle with alcohol. Then add some of the potentized C10/4 and stir.
The rest of the C10/4 liquid can be used to be further potentized.
Never shake once the alcohol is added. Because then you will be mixing the proving substance with the alcohol.
You will need 5 x 10ml bottles; 1 for continuing potentization and 4 for saving the alcohol wetted pellets.
Potencies that can best be made are: C10/4, C30/4, C220/4 and C1300/4.
The entire process will take about 14-20 hours.

  • Hi, I am interested in these C4 potencies but would like some clarification about the dilution scale described in the C4 protocol. Initially it is 1g of substance to 100g lactose for C1 (C scale; 1:100), then the instructions for all the other triturations are to take 10g of the potency below and add 100g lactose (X scale; 1:10). I thought that would be going from the C scale to the X scale. Is that how it is supposed to be or is it a typo and supposed to be C scale (1g instead of 10g) all the way through? Thanks very much, Kay

  • It would be helpful to have an answer (see above) about the volumes and also the repetitions of trituration. I presume there are typos on both counts. C0- C1 takes 60 minutes, C1 –> C2 takes 90 minutes allegedly. 1g substance : 100g milk sugar; or 10g substance to 100g milk sugar. Please!
