- This chapter explains why
homoeopathic medicines work, even in highly diluted (potentized)
doses.
- The action is not material,
but dynamic (energetic).
- Our remedies act on the vital
force, not just the physical body.
1. What Are Our Remedies?
- Homoeopathic
remedies are made by the process of potentization (dilution +
succussion).
- This
removes the material part but increases dynamic energy.
- Remedies
do not work through chemical action but by vibrational similarity.
Mnemonic: PES
- Potentization
- Energy
released
- Similar
symptoms matched
2. How Do They Act?
- Remedies
act by stimulating the vital force.
- They bring
the body back to balance or homeostasis.
- The
medicine doesn’t fight the
disease directly — it helps
the body heal itself.
They act as a trigger, not a substance to overpower disease.
3. Why Potentized Remedies Work?
- Potentized
(diluted) remedies have no material drug left.
- But they
carry energy imprint or “dynamic force” of the original substance.
- This
dynamic force matches the disease vibration, leading to cure.
Energy talks to energy.
Vital force responds to medicine’s
energy, not its material.
4. Remedy Must Match the Totality
- For a
remedy to act, it must match the totality of symptoms.
- This
includes:
- Physical
- Mental
- Emotional
symptoms
- Matching =
Similimum = best suited remedy
Mnemonic: TME
- Totality
- Mind-body
match
- Energy
similarity
5. Remedies Work Only on the Living
- A dead
person has no vital force → medicine cannot act.
- Only living
beings have the dynamic field where remedies work.
- Proof that
medicines work on energy level, not just chemical level.
Homoeopathy = treatment of the dynamic disturbance, not material disease.

Conclusion:
Homoeopathic remedies work because they are based on natural laws,
not chemical force. They act on the vital force, helping the body heal
from within. Their power lies in their dynamic nature, and they work
only when the remedy matches the individual’s totality of symptoms.
