• It is also known as-
• Therapeutic law of Nature.
• Homoeopathic law of Nature.

26

• The weaker dynamic affection is permanently
  extinguished in the living organism by a
  stronger, if latter (whilst differing in kind) is
  very similar to former in its manifestations.

4

• Here Dr. Hahnemann is talking about how cure can
  take place naturally.
• To understand this we will have to understand
  Natures Law first.

5

• Criteria are as follows

6

• They should be Dynamic affections
• They both should be similar in their
  manifestations.
• But they should differ in kind.
• The later one should be stronger than the former
  one.

7

• If all the criteria are fulfilled then the
  stronger dynamic affection which has come later
  will remove the weaker dynamic affection which
  was already existing in the body permanently
  hence cure will take place.

8

• They both have to be dynamic.
• If the later one is not of dynamic origin then it
  cannot remove the former one in any way.
• Also, it should be similar in manifestation i.e.
  it should produce similar symptoms. If it is non-
  similar in origin then it will not be able to
  bring out any cure.

9

• To explain this Dr. Hahnemann gives an example in
  foot note 14 ( 26).
• ........ In situations replete with fetid odors,
  where with is it usual to soothe effectively the
  offended olfactory nerves? With the snuff that
  effects similar but stronger manner! No music, no
  sugared cake, which act on the nerves of the
  other senses, can cure the olfactory disgust.

10

• The later dynamic affection has to be stronger
  than the former one otherwise it will not be able
  to show its manifestation.

11

• Let us discuss another example given by Dr.
  Hahnemann to explain this.
• How does the soldier cunningly stifle the
  piteous cries of him who runs the gauntlet from
  the ears of the compassionate bystanders? By the
  shrill notes of the fife commingled with the roll
  of the noisy drum! the distant roar of the
  enemy's canon that inspires his army with fear?
  By the loud boom of the big drum.......

12

• .... For neither one nor the other would the
  distribution of a brilliant piece of uniform nor
  a reprimand to the regiment suffice. In like
  manner the mourning sorrow will be effaced from
  the mind by the account of another still stronger
  cause for the sorrow happening to another, even
  though it be a mere fiction.

13

• Here he wants to explain that to inhibit the
  effect of the cries sorrows of the soldiers
  they used to play drums loudly so that the cry
  should not reach the other soldiers.

14

• Now lets see how we can apply the same law in
  curing the disease.

15

• Suppose the person is suffering from one disease
  later he gets affected by a similar disease
  which is stronger. Then the weaker disease will
  get removed permanently.
• E.g. If a person suffering from small pox gets
  infected by measles, the measles will remove the
  small pox permanently.

16

• How does it happen?

17

• The organism as the living individuality can
  neither receive two similar dynamic affections at
  the same time nor it can react to them
  simultaneously. It has to choose one or the
  other. So it chooses the one which is stronger of
  the two in affecting the vital principles.

18

• If it is so, then why cant we really cure all
  the diseases?

19

• There are very few diseases which are similar in
  manifestations. So it is not applicable to all
  diseases. It is possible only in a few cases of
  similar diseases.

20

• It is highly coincidental that both are similar
  in kind both meet in the individual at the same
  time.

21

• Even though they may meet in an individual
  simultaneously the later one should be stronger
  than the former one.

22

• The later disease might remove the former disease
  but that disease can be more dangerous than the
  former one.

23

• There is no control in our hand, regarding any
  thing.
• We have to just wait watch.
• The physician has no role to play in it.

24

• From the above limitations, we come to know that
  it is very coincidental conditional for cure to
  occur naturally.

25

• So where is such other force to be found which is
  similar stronger?

26

• Dr Hahnemann found such sources which are capable
  of dynamically deranging the living organism in
  those substances which are termed as MEDICINES.

27

• Whenever we give medicine to the individual, it
  creates an artificial disease in side the body.
• The medicines which we give are chosen on the
  basis of the symptom similarity.
• So it produces a similar disease in the body.

28

• So now the only question remaining is that Is
  this artificial disease stronger than the natural
  disease?
• Dr. Hahnemann says YES for the following reasons

29

• Diseases are cured overcome by suitable
  medicines.
• The susceptibility of the living organism for
  natural disease is comparatively less than that
  for medicinal diseases.

30

• So this similar stronger artificial disease
  removes the weaker natural disease permanently.
• Now the Vital Force is free from the Natural
  disease. The renewed energy of the Vital Force is
  then capable of overcoming the artificial
  disease.

31

• Hence the Vital Force is free from both Natural
  as well as Artificial disease.
• Hence the person gets cured.

32
Advantages
33

• Unlike Natural diseases, the medicines acts all
  the times, under all circumstances on every
  living body excite in it the symptoms peculiar
  to it, so that evidently every living human
  organism must always invariably be affected by
  medicinal disease ( 32).

34

• The total control is in our hand.
• We can increase or decrease the potency of the
  medicines.
• We can change the medicines as per need.
• We can also antidote the unnecessary aggravations.

35

• Hence artificial diseases are always
  unconditional.
