This document discusses the convergence of homeopathy and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), known as homeosiniatry. It outlines the origins of homeosiniatry from the 19th century work of homeopaths who found connections between homeopathic remedies and sensitive points on the body that align with acupuncture points. Modern practitioners like de La Fuye have developed the field by combining homeopathic remedies and acupuncture. Theories have been proposed to reconcile homeopathy and TCM frameworks, such as relating remedies to meridian theories. Recent work by Kantor has expanded the five phases model to comprehensively integrate homeopathy, TCM and biomedicine for diagnosis and treatment of chronic illness.

ANALYTICAL REPERTORY OF THE SYMPTOMS OF THE MIND
Dr. Smita Brahmachari
The practice of Homoeopathy is a balancing act. We weigh pros and cons to arrive at a prescription; for us differential diagnosis is not only for identifying the disease but also for identifying the drug. In such identification process we gather all the symptoms of the patient, without a prejudiced eye. We do not judge the patient or censor his sayings for we very well know the importance of each and every symptoms – whether it is a mental or a physical symptom. Mental symptoms were used for the final deciding vote rather than for initial identification of medicines, except in a few exceptional cases. Pioneer homoeopaths had this approach to practice that the Mind and Body are not separate but are only different manifestations of the same vital force.
The need for such a repertory where the mental concomitants of physical complaints and physical concomitants of mental states are available has been met in Dr.C.Hering’s ANALYTICAL REPERTORY OF THE SYMPTOMS OF THE MIND. This book contains those symptoms of the mind that have been observed in connection with the bodily symptoms. This book is not a collection of mental symptoms as in Synthetic Repertory, Vol-I. Hering being an ardent follower of Hahnemann wanted to revive Hahnemannian concept back into Homoeopathic practice. So, at the end of the ‘Introduction’, he says that through this work, the future Homoeopaths will be able to follow the right way of the true Hahnemannian school, i.e. always to individualize.
This is a humble attempt on my part to represent this work of Hering. I have used this book in the OPD only a few times but after going through the whole work, the potentiality of this book can definitely be felt. We all must try to use this book and establish the role it can play in our daily practice.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen

6. Homeosiniatry’s Origins
The writings of homeopathy’s founder,
Samuel Hahnemann (1756-1843)
The writings of Gottfried Rademacher
(1772-1850)
In the 19th century, the work of three
generations of the Weihe family,
German physicians and homeopaths
8. From Samuel Hahnemann
”… that if the remedy is chosen well, it
touches all the ill points (‘kranken
Punkte’) in a curative way and they will
disappear in a wonderful way.”
Hahnemann chose not to include pin-
point digital palpation (so as to find the
sensitive points) as part of the
homeopathic diagnostic process.
9. Gottfried Rademacher
A German physician and homeopathic
contemporary of Hahnemann who did
choose to explore diagnosis according
to pressure point sensitivity
10. Dr. Auguste Weihe (1840-1896)
In support of Hahnemann the 3rd Weihe
generation physician, concluded that:
Whenever a particular homeopathic
drug picture is indicated, certain points
on the surface of the patient’s body
become especially sensitive to digital
pressure. When the individual’s
appropriate remedy is administered
these points lose their sensitivity
11. Dr. Weihe identified:
…270 points
assignable to
specific
homeopathic
symptom
complexes. But he
used them only in
order to objectively
verify his
homeopathic
remedy selection
12. Homeosiniatry in modern times
Dr. Roger de La Fuye
Clark Manning and Louis Vanrenen
Prakash Vakil
Jerry M. Kantor
13. Dr. Roger de La Fuye
French acupuncturist and homeopath…
Discovered by 1947 that most of Weihe’s
points coincided exactly with acu-points
Found that the associated homeopathic
and acupuncture symptomatology of the
points matched
Was the first doctor to treat his patients
with parallel therapy, using needle
acupuncture and corresponding
homeopathic remedies (given orally).
14. Dr. Roger de La Fuye
French acupuncturist and homeopath…
Showed that the combination was at least
equal if not superior to therapy with each
modality applied separately
Continued adding to Weihe’s points so that
homeosiniatry now uses 482 points, 434 on
Chinese meridians and 48 extra points. A
current widespread practice of
homeosiniatry is to inject sterile
homeopathic remedies (diluted and
potentized in 0.9% saline) into acu-points.

reflects Zang-Fu,

remedy reflects the
original substance’s
position within culture,
medicine, or the
cosmos
On what basis might

reference be
reconciled?

20. Berberis’ Cohort Benefits:
For TCM:
Elucidates how a plant,
barberry, and its
embedded theme,
“hidden psychic
wounds” relates to
alarm within the LI
and the Kidney
For Homeopathy:
Enriches materia medica
by relating the

Blends homeopathy’s specificity
and concreteness into TCM’s
abstract schema.
Models with sophistication
biomedical diagnoses of chronic
illness states so they become
existentially meaningful as
opposed to random and
frightening
Offers the first comprehensively
integrated diagnostic and
treatment model of three powerful
medical systems
Sight
Touch
Taste
Smell
Hearing
35. The Homeosiniatric Five Phases
theory also…
Allows for creative modeling of
the known Generating, Control,
and Retrograde cycles plus a
new cycle describing a
Compensation dynamic
Creates predictive scenarios such
as disorder of smell presaging the
onset of Alzheimers
Makes sense of what are
otherwise inexplicable
pathologies such as the
frameshift mutation’s affinity for
breast and colon cancer
Updates and reinvigorates the
Five Phases so that they become
relevant to biomedicine
36. When all five dimensions are
disharmonized…
An efficient and
meaningful means of
modeling the two great
chronic illness
challenges of our time:
• Cancer (see ICI)
• Autism (see
forthcoming book)
Chaos
