After my first case of sarcode I tried a lot to
get a “general theme” about sarcodes, but I failed; because we have not enough
information in our materia medica and not enough provings
for making generalization of sarcodes
I tried to compare each and every remedy of
sarcodes but I didn’t get any common clue between them.
Fortunately two months later a interview of a
patient (needing RNA) made me think further about generalization of sarcode,
because he talked 2 hours continuously about “physiology”. So at that time I
thought, why should “body” not be a general theme of sarcode? Ultimately all
sarcode remedies are coming from the “body”! So finally my general
understanding became clear. Let’s discuss the themes step by step.
General theme:
First we see Dr. Rajan Sankaran’s view and try
to understand his opinion and then we see how I understand the sarcodes.
• “Any particular cell (tissue/secretion) take
over the whole being is indication of sarcode”.
In one seminar he explains this thing
beautifully. His sentence… “For understanding this in a better way please take
as an example that all people in a state become policemen, then imagine what’s
the situation in the state?
The same situation happens in any particular
patient of a sarcode where their whole being becomes like any particular cell
(tissue/secretion). I mean, some police is required in the state but when the
whole state becomes police, it creates a problem and requires treatment”.
• “A sarcode is indicated when its function is
seen predominantly in the case, when it becomes global and affects every
thing”.
Here his explanation has one word added
‘function’, which is something more precise then the previous explanation. So
the understanding is when any cell becomes the whole organism then their
expression in human terms is the ‘function’. When patient’s central issues are
related to ‘functions of the body’ then we think of sarcodes.
Dr. Sankaran’s explanation is basic, but we
have to understand that basis and make it in a kind of “practical form” which
we can apply easily in all cases of sarcodes.
What is the ‘function’ in sarcodes?
If we look in our body we observe one
thing…that every cell in the body is functioning throughout its whole life; if
they stop functioning the body can’t survive, so the “function” is basic
criteria of body’s survival mechanism and I understand the sensation of every
kingdom by their survival mechanism.
• Minerals are structure and they have to
complete their structure by loosing or gaining something, so their survival
mechanism is to loose something or gain something.
• Plants are self dependant and on receiving
any stimuli give reaction according to it, so their survival mechanism is to
take the sensation and give a reaction.
• Animals are dependant on their environment so
they experience threat from environment to their survival, so their survival
mechanism is ‘survive’.
• Sarcodes: Similarly if we understand the
survival mechanism of the body we understand a sarcode’s sensation. If the body
wants to tell (express) anything, it speaks in the form of
“physiology”,
so the physiology is the language of the body.
The body survives with the help of
physiological processes, so the ‘body function’ is the core issue in sarcodes.
Exploring the sensation of sarcode
The sensation of sarcode would be expressed in
the form of “functions of the body”. When we pass through all levels in the process
of case taking and when we reach at the level of sensation, at that time the
patient starts to talk about the functions. At this stage their expressions are
related to “Action” rather then “Effect”. I mean the patient put weight on
“Action” and these actions are related to the “Body”. Actions are like… doing,
working, maintaining etc.
E.g., when our Histamine patient talks about
sensation he feels that he cannot do anything or he cannot work or his body
cannot maintain blood ingredients. So here he puts weight on ‘doing’, ‘working’
and ‘maintaining’. So it becomes clear that he is talking about functions and
that these are related to blood, brain or body. So things become logical if we
understand he is talking about “Body functions = Physiology”.
Function may confuse us with the mineral
kingdom because minerals also have functions as a sensation, but minerals’
functions are related to their row in the periodic table: they are related to
existence, separation, identity, security, performance, leadership or letting
go. Sarcodes’ functions are related to “Body”. For example: health, blood,
blood circulation, immunity, deficiency, excretion, filtration etc.
Sarcode patients’ expressions confuse us with
“local or physical” information, because when a patient talks about local
detail that is also related to the body, but the basic difference is the
sarcode patient talks local-like information at the sensation level. E.g., if
patients talk at the level of fact they express very minute energy while at the
level of sensation the energy is plenty and the pattern of energy is repetitive
and obvious: they have movement (hand gesture/body gesture/facial expressions),
sound and colour for expression of their experience while these things are
lacking at the local level.
When I examine all cases of sarcodes I see one
pattern in their functions. Their attitude is they want to maintain their
state. This kind of understanding comes to my mind when I re-examine my
cortisone case. During re-examination I wonder why anybody wants to become
‘proper, perfect and appropriate’? The answer is: she wants to maintain her
state otherwise she becomes ‘oversensitive or unstable’. I mean if you don’t
maintain your state then you become “hyper” or “hypo” functions wise and that’s
creating a problem in the sarcode.
This kind of ‘attitude’ expressed beautifully
in Dr. Sankaran’s DNA case. The patient maintains the attitude of ‘find
something better’ and changed his place 6x! This kind of attitude forced him to
work in sharp, focused and right direction. In the case we see some more
features like: I can’t sit in one place, changes constantly; I always try to
survive in difficult situation. These expressions support our idea of
maintaining.
I give one more example of ‘maintaining’
attitude. My RNA patient wants to work according to a time-table. He wants
everything to be perfect and according to his way. Suppose his mom cooked
“cari” instead of “dal”, but he doesn’t eat it, because cari is for Wednesday
not for Sunday in his time-table of food. He becomes so much nutrition
conscious that he made a fixed menu of food for a week and strictly follows
that. This is the attitude of his behaviour. If he eats something irregularly
then he looses his ‘healthy state’, which is he tries to maintain constantly by
making a time-table for food.
How to select any particular remedy
from sarcode kingdom?
In above chapter we discuss about general theme
of sarcode but how to choose a sarcode remedy is one another issue that must be
understood perfectly. “Potential” of any sarcode remedy makes their choice of
prescription. For better way to understand this topic let’s make comparison of
sarcodes with India. The Indians are recognized by their language, Hindi, but
anybody coming from Maharastra state speaks Marathi also, or anybody coming
from Gujrat state also speaks Gujrati, but their national language is Hindi. In
the same way all sarcodes speak the language of “physiology” as a general, but
at particular level they speak a different language of depending on “where
they coming from”. For example, in the
‘Histamine’ case physiology is his language of sarcode but he also speaks the
language of ‘contraction and dilatation’, because histamine’s potential is to
contract or dilate vessels.
In other words, if a patient expresses
complaints at sensation level he talks about ‘function of body’ which confirms
the sarcode, but the type and quality of function point to a particular remedy.
In my Urea case the
physiological process is conformation of
sarcode but the expressions of ‘excretion and filtration’ make the choice of
Urea.

Defining ‘sarcodes’ is a very complex task, on which a consensus
among homeopaths seems to be almost impossible.
I would go with the definition evolved from discussions
on our group: “Sarcodes are homeopathic drugs prepared from healthy animal
tissues and secretions that in crude form contain biological molecules having
specific physiological functions in the human organism”
According to this definition, an animal product
will not be considered a sarcode, if it does not contain some biological
molecules that are integral part of vital metabolic processes of human
organism. That is the dividing line between ‘animal drugs’ and ‘sarcodes’.
Sarcodes have a very notable peculiarty. Always
exist in molecular form in the organism, and participate in various molecular
interactions being part of different biochemical pathways. They become
homeopathic drugs
only when they are not administered in ‘molecular forms’, but as potentised forms
above 12c. In molecular forms below Avogadro limit, they can be considered only
as physiological products, not as homeopathic drugs.
Two questions have to be answered here:
1. If sarcodes are natural biological molecules
having specific functional roles in human organism, how they become pathogenic
agents, requiring the intervention of their own potentized forms or ‘molecular
imprints’?
2. If the sarcodes are biological molecules being
essential parts of living system, will not their physiological functions get
negatively affected by the use of their potentized forms, since it is true that
potentized form of a drug substance can antidote the biological effects of same
drug in crude form?
Let us consider pituitary: hormones. They play a decisive role in the whole metabolism of
the organism, and hence called ‘master gland’. Pitutary hormones control many
enzyme systems in our body. Then how can they act as pathogenic agents,
requiring the use of potentized pituitary extract?
3. When we use potentized pitutrin as a
sarcode, will it not act as an antidote towards molecular forms of pituitary
hormones and create dangerous consequences, by disrupting the whole endocrine
activities mediated by pituitary hormones?
Pepsinum is very important in digestion of
proteins. If pepsinum 30 is given to a person, will it create problems in
protein digestion by deactivating pepsin molecules? If they cannot antidote
pepsin molecules, how can they act as therapeutic agents?
Thyroid hormones play very important roles in
metabolic activities in the living organism. Then how it can be pathogenic
agents, requiring the intervention of potentized thyroidinum? Will not potentized
thyroidinum hinder the biological processes mediated by thyroid hormones?
These are very pertinent questions we have to
answer while trying to explain the science behind using of potentized sarcodes.
We can answer these questions only if we know
the dynamics of molecular processes involved in biochemical interactions.
Every biological molecules, especially those
belonging to hormones, signaling molecules(cytokines), neuro-chemicals,
antibodies and enzymes being circulated in the organism enter into two types of
chemical interactions:
1. ‘On-target interactions’ and
‘On-target’ interactions are those happening between natural ligands and their
genuine targets. Such interactions are essential part of vital processes
through which biochemical pathways are
carried unhindered.
Natural ligands and their genuine
targets interact through two stages:
a). molecular identification and
binding, which is effected by complementary configurational affinity between
targets and ligands,
b). actual chemical interaction,
which is effected through perfect charge affinity between ligands and their
genuine targets.
2. ‘Off-target interactions’.
Off-target interactions are those
accidentally happening between ligands
and wrong targets having configurational affinity only. In the absence of exact
charge affinity, no
chemical changes occur. Such
interactions are always ‘inhibitory’, temporarily or permanently deactivating
the involved biological molecules. Such ‘inhibitory’ off-target
interactions inevitably lead to
derangement in associated biochemical pathways resulting in pathological
states.
‘Off-target’ inhibitions caused by biological
molecules such as hormones, enzymes, antibodies, signaling molecules(cytokines)
and neurochemicals are causative factors of a wide range of pathological
conditions in human beings.
Sarcodes, or potentized preparations of these
biological molecules, which contain their ‘molecular imprints’ , can
effectively remove these molecular inhibitions and thereby act as therapeutic
agents. Here lies the importance of sarcodes in homeopathic therapeutics.
Follows the issue of selective action of the
potentized sarcodes. As any other molecular imprints, molecular imprints in
potentized sarcodes also cannot interfere in in the interactions between natural
ligands and their genuine targets which involves configurational affinity as
well as charge affinity. Since molecular imprints act through configurational
affinity only, they can interfere in only inhibitory ‘off-target’ interactions.
It is now obvious that thyroidinum 30 cannot
interfere in the essential biochemical processes mediated by thyroid hormones,
Piturin 30 cannot interfere in the natural actions of pituitary hormones. This
principle is applicable to all potentized sarcodes. We can use potentized
sarcodes above 12c without any fear of adverse effects.
Sarcodes can play a very important role in the treatment of diverse types of diseases belonging to metabolic, emotional, psychosomatic, and ontological factors. They can also be part of constitutional prescriptions
