Question by Veeraghavan.
We can consider in some disorders of the skin which are generally disturbs beauty of an Individual & also if there is a big chronic disappointment in the life of a person, the following state of disposition & mind is expressed commonly i.e. the rubric "FEAR, OPINION OF OTHER OF" ( ambr, bar-c,germ,nux-vom,ozone,prot,puls). But why Nat-m missing in this rubric?
Answer:
Dear Veeraraghavan,
we will discuss the dictionary meaning of the following words so that the understanding of the rubric Fear, Opinion of others, of will be quiet easy.
Already, we have discussed the meaning of the fear as:
Fear is a distressing emotion aroused by a perceived threat. It is a basic survival mechanism occurring in response to a specific stimulus, such as pain or the threat of danger. In short, fear is the ability to recognize danger and flee from it or confront it, also known as the Fight or Flight response. Some psychologists such as John B. Watson, Robert Plutchik, and Paul Ekman have suggested that fear belongs to a small set of basic or innate emotions. This set also includes such emotions as joy, sadness, and anger. Fear should be distinguished from the related emotional state of anxiety, which typically occurs without any external threat. Additionally, fear is related to the specific behaviors of escape and avoidance, whereas anxiety is the result of threats which are perceived to be uncontrollable or unavoidable.[1] Worth noting is that fear almost always relates to future events, such as worsening of a situation, or continuation of a situation that is unacceptable. Fear could also be an instant reaction to something presently happening.
An opinion is a subjective statement or thought about an issue or topic, and is the result of emotion or interpretation of facts. An opinion may be supported by an argument, although people may draw opposing opinions from the same set of facts. Opinions rarely change without new arguments being presented. However, it can be reasoned that one opinion is better supported by the facts than another by analyzing the supporting arguments.[1] An opinion may be the result of a person's perspective, understanding, particular feelings, beliefs, and desires. In casual use, the term opinion may refer to unsubstantiated information, in contrast to knowledge and fact-based beliefs.
So, in this rubric, its a fear in the persons mind regarding the opinion of others about him that what they will say or whether they will make any comment or whether they will appreciate him/ her etc. It might be good or bad or positive or negative. It's not the pessimistic attitude of Nat-m. It is only the fear regarding their opinion. In Nat-m because of negativity, the wretched feeling appears & they reproaches themselves. Sadness of the Nat-m is not getting expressed in the Fear, Opinion of others. That's why it is missing in this rubric. It is just like the Anticipatory anxiety.
Thanks!

Dear Veeraraghavan,
Under the rubric - Fear, Superstitious, there is only one remedy i.e. Rhus T.
Let's first learn the meanings of both the words from dictionary.
Fear is a distressing emotion aroused by a perceived threat. It is a basic survival mechanism occurring in response to a specific stimulus, such as pain or the threat of danger.

Fear could also be an instant reaction to something presently happening.
Superstition is a credulous belief or notion, not based on reason or knowledge. The word is often used pejoratively to refer to folk beliefs deemed irrational, which is appropriate since irrational means "not based on reason". This leads to some superstitions being called "old wives' tales". It is also commonly applied to beliefs and practices surrounding luck, prophecy and spiritual beings, particularly the irrational belief that future events can be foretold by specific unrelated prior events.
So, fear of such superstitious beliefs is Rhus T. Let me explain it with example.
One of my student unfortunately died at very early age due to Thrombo-embolism induced severe myocardial infarction. My another student who was a very close friend of this deceased student, there after started getting functional chest pains & he use to call me every time with the fear in his mind that he might get a heart attack like his friend. This is superstitious aspect to which he use to fear & with the dose of Rhus T, his chest pains used to get vanished.
I think, you will get an idea regarding the rubric.

UNDERSTANDING THE RUBRICS
Question by Veeraraghavan A.R. on February 4, 2011 at 11:00am
Dear Veeraraghavan,
we can very easily differentiate between Quiet, Wants to be, Desires repose & tranquility & Bed, Desires ti remain in because in Quiet, wants to be, the patient is in a agitated state from which he wants an absolute quietness. He doesn't like slightest noise & desires an absolute tranquility. It is more related to his mental state for which he desires repose & tranquility. Whereas in Bed, Desires to remain in, the patient wants to remain in the same comfortable state or position. He doesn't want to change his condition whether related to his physique or mind. Bed is nothing but a place where a person gets relaxed in a comfort. Every time patient will not going to tell us that he wants to remain in bed but he will going to express the same feeling in different ways. For e.g. a person who doesn't wants to change his job even though he is getting better salary than present but away from his present place.
And regarding your second question: Also if some patient says, "I don't know how to get rid of my problem (disease)".
First of all, find out whether patient has tried to find out solution for his problem or whether he is only thinking regarding his problem? Groping is an ACT where a person tries to find out the solution everywhere to get rid of his problem. It is very close to gambling & finding out the solution in the dark by groping. Whereas in Delusion Blind, he is just thinking on the problem without doing any ACT. It is nothing but only FEELING because of his problem & he feels what to do as if he is in the dark or as if he is totally blind. And you have asked about Fear, Dark, of which is absolutely a different condition because if Fear is present in the patient, it should get expressed in his behavior, sentences, expressions. In fact, Delusion, Dark comes closer to earlier versions than Fear, Dark.
What I want to tell you is please,"don't concentrate on sentences or words but on MAN behind these sentences". For e.g. the question,"How are you?" can be asked in SYMPATHETIC tone, LIGHT tone, INQUISITIVE tone, SUPERIORITY tone etc. So, the only words never shows the INDIVIDUALITY or MAN, but perceiving the MAN behind those words/ sentences are very important to individualize a patient.
Thanks!

Difference between Hide desire to & Hides things
Question by Veeraraghavan A.R. on January 29, 2011 at 12:46pm:
Sir, if you do please explain the difference between 'hide desire to' and 'hide things' through the patients communications?
Answer by Dr Prasad Arvind Rasal. on January 30, 2011 at 8:37am :
Dear Veeraraghavan,
Many thanks for your questions.
Hide, desire to means generally the person himself wants to hide himself from the society due to any reason. For e.g. esp in children, due to shyness, these children in OPD hide themselves behind the persons or chair or anything. Sometimes, Patients wants to hide certain things while telling history due to certain reason. In Hide, desire to person shows or gives hints regarding the thing & still he don't want to disclose them while in Hides things patient hides the thing directly without giving any idea regarding them. We can get those things either from relatives or on observation. The difference, we have to perceive. If we took Hide, desire to, we cannot loose the remedy because all three remedies under the rubric Hides things are present in Hide, desire to. If you are in dilemma, always use the broad rubric which covers all the remedies.
Thanks!
