I believe that it is a bit absurd not to want to give the simillimum, the simillimum is always the ideal one, which happens is that not always we are going to know it or to be able to find it. But to assure that must not devote the simillimum it is a bit surprising. Because then, we have to insure of that the remedy that is given should not be the simillimum? I find it absurd.
A remedy that he cure, it is the acute or chronic picture, it is all the same, it is a remedy that has similarity with our patient. If the similarity is partial, he will recover partially to the patient, if the similarity is total, will treat it in the totality. When it is not necessary to to medicate, (with nothing) it is in a critical situation since it is an epileptic fit that has a duration of a minute and is not worth risking to an aggravation. It is not necessary to medicate in this instant. Simply it is more prudent to expect this minute and to medicate with the remedy that we see more similar, similar the present picture and our patient. If this remedy is the simillimum, it will be perfect, because he will recover from soft, rapid and lasting form, and if it is similar, at the time he will relieve probably or will suppress, but it will not do the complete cure that does the simillimum.
We suppose that we have a patient whose simillimum already we know: it does an assault of epilepsy, we are going to see it and give him his simillimum, we are going to give what another remedy? The simillimum is the one that better is going to act, fewer aggressor, the appropriate one. Now we suppose that we do not know the simillimum of this patient, and it does an epileptic fit to us, we will try to give him the remedy of similarity of what we see, we do not prune a picture to invent ourselves, and what we see is to our patient in an epileptic picture. We will give him the remedy, so soon as it is possible, on having finished the minute of the epileptic crisis. If we are lucky of that the remedy is the simillimum, he will recover wonderfully, if not, again, we will relieve it or will suppress it, but there is no another thing, if the homeopathy recovers is because there is similarity, without similarity, there is no response.
We speak on the remedies simillimum and others ¿? As if the man was two separated parts, as if at the moment, on having done the acute picture, the subject was stopping being it and it was another thing. The patient is one, it is rightly the marvel of the homeopathy, which can see it, the totality of the patient, his implication to all the levels, the commitment of the mental thing and the physical thing and quite he when it falls ill. Why to apply these divisions at the moment of the treatment?
