News from the National Center for Homeopathy
October 24, 2014 - The Ebola epidemic raging through West Africa has become a humanitarian crisis of great proportion. Homeopaths worldwide have been mobilizing their efforts toward gaining entrance in those countries affected, in order to provide homeopathic medical intervention to those individuals stricken with Ebola. The overriding goal is to investigate Ebola firsthand, and thereby determine which remedy or remedies are best for treating this disease.
Homeopathy has had a longstanding record in our over 200 year history in the successful treatment of a wide variety of epidemic diseases, including hemorrhagic fevers, some of which are in many ways very similar to Ebola. In our tradition of working with epidemics, homeopaths attempt to determine a central or core remedy that proves effective for most individuals who have contracted the disease, which is named the “genus epidemicus.” This remedy is derived from culling symptoms from many cases, and finding the very few, or preferably, the single remedy which best matches the natural disease expression of the epidemic under consideration.

While there is ample reason to expect that such a remedy can be found for Ebola, to date our homeopathic world community has not yet determined what that remedy or remedies might be. Once such a remedy is found and administered empirically to patients, if it is shown to be effective, we will have in our hands both a treatment for Ebola victims and, very likely, an effective remedy to help prevent or dramatically diminish the spread of the disease to those exposed or at risk of contracting it (homeoprophylaxis). Discovering such a remedy and applying it successfully for Ebola is still unproven, though completely in line with our historical experience with epidemic diseases, both for their treatment and prevention.
The good news is that a small international team of experienced and heroic homeopaths have arrived in West Africa, and are currently on the ground working hard to examine patients, work out the “genus epidemicus,” and initiate clinical trials. This work is being done alongside the current conventional supportive measures and treatments already in place. We applaud and congratulate this team’s dedication and courage in joining the front lines in treating Ebola with homeopathy. The answer to whether homeopathic medicine has an important role in the Ebola epidemic could be forthcoming quite soon.

ARHF NEWSLETTER March 2013 by Harry van der Zee, MD
Amma Resonance Healing Foundation portrait of Harry van der Zee, MD
It’s been almost a year ago that we mailed the last ARHF newsletter. In the mean time a lot has happened, so it’s high time to send you an update and to inform you about exciting plans for the near future. Let me first give you a short impression of last year’s activities and then discuss with you an upcoming project for which your help is dearly needed.
MALAWI
the Chintheche Homeopathy Team headed by Joseph Msumba
In 2012 the CHINTHECHE HOMEOPATHY CLINIC, a CBO (community based organisation) run by Joseph Msumba and his staff, has been our main focus. Several volunteering homeopaths from Europe and the USA have visited Malawi to train the staff and to treat patients. Thousands of patients visit the clinic and through an active outreach programme treatment is also being made available in several villages in the Nkatha Bay District.
Regular homeopathy and PC remedies are both being used in an integrated treatment model, which means that a wide variety of indications can be treated with good results. AIDS and malaria are the main indications and the success rates are very high. Personally I have been in Africa a dozen times and I’ve treated AIDS in some eight countries, and from all the cases I’ve seen I remember only one that didn’t seem to respond to PC1 – the disease specific resonance for HIV/AIDS. It still impresses me and also fills me with deep gratitude. Those of you that make this beautiful work possible by supporting ARHF, thank you!

TANZANIA
A trip to Tanzania in November 2011 not only resulted in the treatment of thousands of refugees suffering from war trauma, but also raised a lot of interest in our programmes for AIDS, malaria etc. As I’m writing, Nico Beentjes is in Tanzania to visit several places at the invitation of a long list of CBOs that have expressed a desire to work with us. Our network in the Great Lakes Region is growing rapidly, and extends now from Malawi to Kenya, including Tanzania, Burundi, Rwanda, DRC Congo and Uganda.
BURUNDI/DRC CONGO

This region was first visited in 2008 and ever since local professionals have been using PC resonances and are in close contact with us. The pastors Flory Kazingufu Kasirusiru and Alain Mubigalo Mutiki are our main contacts, and through their network we are able to work with many CBOs and health professionals in Burundi and DRC Congo. An increasing number of people are being trained so an even faster growing number of people receive treatment for epidemic diseases and trauma. At
www.arhf.nl you can watch several videos on this most important work. I’m very excited about the activities going on in places like Bukavu and Goma, where some of the moist severely traumatised people of the world live and where the trauma relief we offer is so much needed and appreciated.
KENYA

Here is a truly amazing story. In the summer of 2011 I was member of staff in Byron Katie’s THE SCHOOL OF THE WORK in Germany. At some point Katie asked me to speak to two participants from Kenya as they might be interested in our work in Africa. These two were Sister Marianne and Pastor Gordon. A third African participant was Joseph Msumba who also joined us and shared his already long-term experience with PC1 for HIV/AIDS. We talked for an hour in which Gordon and Marianne showed keen interest as both were involved with AIDS support groups. The Hahnemann Pharmacy mailed remedies to the seminar venue and in another half hour I instructed them on how to prescribe PC1.
A year later I visited Kisumu where they live. This area of Kenya, Nyanza, has the highest incidence of AIDS. Complete villages have died out. In the year, after the half hour training, Gordon had some 850 AIDS-patients under treatment and together with him I talked to many of them. An amazing experience as one after the other narrated how much they had improved. Energy had returned to their exhausted bodies, hope was glistening in their eyes and their hearts rejoiced. Their overwhelming gratitude felt like a warm bath and became a great stimulus to further expand the facilitation of PC1. I trained 30 assistants for Gordon and the use of PC1 is now growing like wild fire, not only in Nyanza, but also extending into Uganda.
LAKE VICTORIA TRAINING TOUR

Starting with Peter Chappell’s visit to Rwanda in 2005 we are active now in all countries near to Lake Victoria. The network that started in Kenya is rapidly nearing the one based in Burundi. By word of mouth more and more healthcare workers and CBOs get interested and request training and treatment. Therefore we have planned a tour around Lake Victoria in August this year. Starting in Kisumu we will visit Uganda, Rwanda, DRC Congo, Burundi, Tanzania to then return to Kenya. It will be a very busy programme involving training sessions in many places. The focus will mainly be on AIDS, Malaria and Trauma/Post Traumatic Stress Disorder.portrait of Gordon NyabadeWe’ll work with CBOs, church organisations, social workers, health professionals, women’s organisations – anyone that reaches out to those in need with an open mind and heart.portrait of Flory Kazingufu
The Lake Victoria Tour will connect the networks if Gordon Nyabade (left) and Flory Kazingufu (right).
You can help make this Magical Mystery Tour happen! We need a good car, not only to make the trip, but also as a permanent mobile clinic and training facility. We need €10,000! Not much if you consider that training hundreds of people implies treatment for ten thousands. Every euro will result in at least one person, maybe later hundreds and thousands, like in the story above, treated for AIDS, Malaria or Trauma of rape and war. If 100 people donate €100 we can make this happen.
HOMEOPATHY for DISEASES by Harry van der Zee, MD
HOMEOPATHY FOR DISEASES
In August 2012 the book Homeopathy for Diseases was published. Illustrated with a wealth of case-histories it explains the philosophy and practice of our work with epidemic diseases, trauma, intoxication and chronic diseases. Available at
www.homeolinks.nl, amazon.com and amazon.co.uk.

RICHARD PITT in Malawi

Hello Fellow Homeopaths and Friends:
So life has landed me in Malawi and I have been here two months now, working with Harry van der Zee, Editor of LINKS journal. We are working in a local clinic in a town called Chintheche, in the middle of Malawi and have been very very busy now with the clinic. We are practicing 3 days a week and teaching 2 days a week.Then on saturday we visit local villages or do other business, leaving one day to stare at the wonderful Lake Malawi. map of the African country of Malawi
The area we are in is very poor but the people are great and we have now opened up a new clinic with a locally trained homeopath. We are working with the local hospital and health district and are treating all sorts of conditions. Harry has been using PC remedies for years, all over Africa and we are using them as part of the protocol of treatment here. Then I am mainly focusing on regular homeopathy, and we are seeing 40-50 patients a day, for all sorts of conditions. Then we have just finished teaching 30 people how to use PC remedies for HIV/AIDS and also Malaria. Twelve of those will continue to do a more advanced homeopathy training and I will be teaching this. Harry leaves next week and I will stay one more month before heading to Kenya for a homeopathy conference. Then I will be here again for another 4-6 weeks to finish off the training and help maintain the clinic here. We are trying to make the clinic run as a self sustaining business but as people have virtually no money here, it is hard to do so.But so much has happened in such a short period of time. We also are looking to be donated some land so we can build our own clinic here which would be great.

Of course, we need to raise funds to do this. Harry's foundation, Amma Resonance Healing Foundation (ARHF) is supporting the clinic and we are now needing to raise funds to support the clinic, build a new building and pay the wages of people we are employing here. If you would like to help out in anyway, that would be really good. All I can say is that what has happened here in two months is very exciting. I wasn't so sure of the PC remedies before I came but they are working amazingly well for many conditions here and to add regular homeopathy and a training program is giving us the possibility to really establish homeopathy here in Malawi.
Please go to
www.ARHF.nl and details of how to help are there. Also I am attaching a newsletter about our work. You can also check out my blog at richardpitt.wordpress.com for my details of our time here. - I hope all is well with you all in CA and beyond. - All the best
ARHF NEWSLETTER March 2012 by Richard Pitt
Smiling and waving Malawi children in a refugee camp
Right now I am in Malawi together with Harry van der Zee, co-founder of ARHF. We are supporting a clinic here in Chintheche which is offering homeopathic and general health care for the local population. The AMMA RESONANCE HEALING FOUNDATION has been focusing its work in Africa treating the complex disease phenomena of AIDS/Malaria/TB and has also worked in countries such as Burundi, Tanzania, Kenya, Ghana, The DRC and Central African Republic. Besides working on epidemics it is also dealing with the affects of trauma, including war, genocide, rape, natural catastrophes etc. The remedies they have been using seem to be doing amazing work and it is well worth checking the evidence out on the videos at
www.ARHF.nl. There are some really significant and quite stunning testimonials.
However, the work we are doing here at the CHINTHECHE HOMEOPATHY CLINIC is integrating the use of these PC Resonances with regular homeopathic care. We are seeing patients 3 days a week and so far have been amazingly busy, seeing all sorts of conditions in the local population. People here are extremely poor so all the treatment is basically free at the moment. We are also teaching 30 people how to use the basic resonance remedies for AIDS, Malaria and TB, so these people can take these medicines back to their villages. Some of these people will continue into more advanced homeopathic training. We are supporting the clinic, paying its rent and many of the essential supplies as well as supporting Joseph Msumba, the founder of the clinic who has been trained in homeopathy. We are helping to develop his skills further and to establish the infrastructure of the clinic. We are looking into the possibility of buying the clinic building so any investment we make will come back to the clinic. We don’t know how much this will cost but estimate it in the region of 5-7 thousand Euros.
young Malawi boy, with a sweet smile, carrying a younger boy on his back We are also employing five assistants who until now have been volunteering their time for no pay. These are people who literally have no money and simply are keen to do something to help. In these first two weeks of clinic, they did amazing work, helping to do intakes, registration, translation, remedy making and working with patients. We had quite a team and saw around 50 people a day. From next month we want to pay them a basic wage for their work, which will come to 50-60 Euros a month. Both Harry and I are working here without pay and are partly supporting ourselves here with our own money.
So, if you would like to help the project here and help us sustain the clinic, which is beginning to offer a great service in the community and also employ people, please do donate to the account below or go to
www.ARHF.nl and donate through the connection there on the site. You can pay through Paypal or if you are in the UK, you can use Giftaid which makes your donation tax deductible. Everything helps. Make sure you say you would like the money to go to Malawi. Thanks a lot.
