THE BEGINEERS
GUIDE TOWARDS PROMISALONE TECHNIQUE
By Prem Parkask Malhotra
Edited & Published by Dr. P.G.Chowdhury
It is one of
the best books crossed over by me for the past 25 years. This book has explained
an easy way of Homeopathic prescribing based on the mind symptoms alone which
is called as “PROMISALONE TECHNIQUE”.
The word “PR-O-MI-S-ALONE” is derived from the
word “ Prescribing On Mind Symptoms
ALONE” and coined by Dr.H.L.Chitkara,. He was the first leading homeopath on practice
exclusively on this method and presented a book in the name of “ New Comprehensive Homeopathic
Materia medica of Mind” which is compiled from the book “ Synthetic
Repertory-Volume-I” [ Dr.Berthel &
Dr.Klunker]. And, Dr.P.P. Malhotra is one of the disciples of Dr. H.L.Chitkara,
and successfully treated many cases on this method.
He has
written many articles and cured cases in the magazine “AUDE SAPERE” in the past
years. Out of which, 123 cases have been
compiled by Dr. Dr.P.P. Malhotra in this book along with some interesting
articles. Some cases have been narrated
excellently and the patient’s key words are marked with serial number and
rubrics are converted accordingly.
It is found
that some tough cases have been cured with this method particularly , a
DEPRESSION case (No.104) with IGN 1M,
STAPH 1M , THUJA 1M and COCC 30. And a
case of CHRONIC CONSTIPATION (No.109) , cured with VERAT is something wonderful.
There are so
many advantages are available in this book which is furnished below;
1.
Excellent
case taking.
2.
Clarity
in the Rubrics conversion.
3.
Selection
of the remedy (SIMILIMUM) in a clear way.
4.
Correct
potency.
5.
Observation
of the case.
We can see
the above technique in the following VERTIGO case:
“A young
unmarried woman , aged 40 years. She is highly educated, well accomplished and
is a practicing Advocate IN High court. She gets spells of vertigo , any time,
day or night , walking or sleeping. I asked her , “ Why she did not get married?”.
She replied that her father died at an early age and there was no other senior
person in family to look after my marriage. Then I am in a legal profession (
litigation etc) so no one ready to accept me as a marriage partner. I asked
her, “ Do you feel any sexual urges?. She replied that,” Our society is
restrictive, conservative society, so I have to control my urges. In fact,
these days, men (Husbands) are greedy and undependable lot, so I keep distance
from them. It is not a happy situation”.
Rubrics:
1.
Delusions,
persecuted, he (she) is.
2.
Ailments
from, celibacy, continence
3.
Aversion,
men, to
4.
Sadness,
continence, from
(
Synthetic repertory)
Rx. CONIUM
30
Conium is
common to all the above mentioned rubrics. One dose CON 30 stopped her vertigo
and made her cheerful. In this case, the woman is so helpless, neglected,
harassed and oppressed. It is real expression of PERSECUTION.
From the
above case, we can understand the simplicity and authenticity of this PROMISALONE method. And, we can find so many
similar cases in this book which are
quite interesting too.
Apart from
the case analysis, some of the interesting articles like rubrics conversion and
management of case have also been explained nicely in this book. Further, it is
found that all the mind rubrics in Synthetic Repertory-Vol-I are given in this book
(1102 Rubrics) which may be very useful to the physician.
However, I
have noticed some of the disadvantage which is mentioned below;
1.
All
Cases are handling with Mind symptoms only and neglecting Physical Generals and
Particulars.
2.
Exact
Potency was not given in many cases.
3.
No
follow up in chronic cases.
4.
And,
More spelling mistakes.
5.
Printing
& Text of the book is not good & may be re-arranged nicely.
The above
points may be considered while releasing the second edition. After finishing
this book, my mind spontaneously said, “Yes, this PROMISALONE method is
certainly helpful to the beginners and even experienced homeopaths for
successful prescription”.
It is really
an excellent compilation of Dr. P.G.Chowdhury, and I am conveying my sincere thanks and gratitude to him and the
author Dr. P.P. Malhotra , on behalf of the entire homeopathic community around
the world.
