Triboelectricity
The major criticism of homoeopathy is based on the professed biological activity of solutions the containing little or none of the original substance in the remedy, which exceeds the Avogadro’s number, and also the method of action is not known. Prof P.D. Bourkas conducted a series of experiments with homoeopathic dilutions He observed electro chemical characteristics “Triboelectricity”of the homoeopathic remedies
in dilution. The characteristics are 1.Change in the resistance in the homoeopathic dilutions. 2. Electrical field of the dilution. 3.Current put through the dilutions.
In a footnote to aphorism 269, Hahnemann says:
Only after this bar of steel is dynamised,
rubbing it with a dull file in one direction, it will become a true
active powerful magnet, one able to attract iron and steel to itself
and impart to another bar of steel by mere contact and even some distance
away. In preparing a homoeopathic remedy, one gram of the primary homoeopathic
substance is added to water or ethanol. During succussion, the molecules
of the primary homoeopathic substance rub against the water/ ethanol
molecule. The rubbing process produces +ve and –ve ions. The ions
form a “cluster” or a certain specific configuration and
a potential is produced. The situation is similar to that of a battery.
The potential established will produce a current flow and hence an electro
magnetic field with unique frequency. Through a complex mathematical
process, they claim to have calculated the frequency also.

The concept of minimum dose can be verified by Arndt-Schultz law that small doses stimulate, medium doses paralyze and large doses kill. In other words, the action of small and very large doses of the same substance on living matter is opposite. |

A single remedy, the lowest potency and minimum dose have high relevance to stimulate the human or any living creature. Hormesis is a relatively new a subject which explain that toxins have a stimulatory effect at low levels, and inhibitory effect at high doses.
