Q1. My patient who reads our newsletters regularly, came to know of our powerful broadcasting technique. She is convinced that broadcasting achieves faster results than oral remedies. So she insists on broadcasting remedies to her even though she is able to take them orally. How can I handle this situation?
A. Broadcasting means you, as a practitioner, are taking responsibility for your patient’s healing, and the patient is not. Suggest to your patient gently that she needs to pay attention to herself for sustained healing; it is our own sincere effort combined with the power of vibro remedy that actually works. Illness is a reminder that we have not paid enough attention to ourselves. Broadcasting, however meritorious, is best in an emergency when oral intake is not possible eg, in ICU. We advise every patient to take responsibility for himself and not expect another person to take charge of his health, which does not work in the long run, as it is likely that the illness may return. Our experience and feedback from other practitioners, is that it is always best to take oral remedy with external application where appropriate, and only when this is not possible, resort to broadcasting.

Q2. I have been practising vibro for ten years over which I have accumulated a huge number of my patients’ records. Many of them have not consulted me for the past several years and I am still storing their records. How long do you suggest that I retain them?
A. We want to maintain a long association, hopefully life long, with our patients for their physical, mental, and emotional problems and hence educate them accordingly. Any patient who experienced benefit from vibrionics remedies might come back to us at any time! We recommend that records are kept for seven years from the date of their last contact. The reason for maintaining these for so long is two-fold – it saves us taking the earlier history all over again and if the current problem is similar to the old problem, it is useful to know the treatment given last time. However, before destroying any records, it is best to offer them back to the patient. You may want to take this opportunity to re-establish contact with the patient by offering him immunity booster and/or cleansing remedies.

Q3. I understand that all acute symptoms are treated together by making a combo in one bottle. But if a patient is undergoing an acute flare-up of his various chronic symptoms, and I mix combos for different problems in one bottle and prescribe 6TD, could this cause a severe pullout?
A. A patient suffering from acute flare-up needs immediate relief, so 6TD dosage is certainly appropriate and if the condition is highly acute, perhaps a dose every ten minutes for up to two hours will be needed. The good news is, when several symptoms are being treated simultaneously with a mixture of combos, the likelihood of a pullout is remote because of the dilution effect.

Q4. Some patients report that pills work better on them than when dissolved in water. Some say if they pop in two pills at a time instead of one, it works better for them! How should I respond to such situations? I tell my patients that remedy in water is more effective than pills, and the effect of two pills is identical to that of one pill.
A. The protocol for taking a remedy in water is recommended in the best interest of the patient for faster relief. This is based on feedback received from many practitioners backed by their experience with several patients. If the belief and comfort of a patient lies in taking the remedy in pill form OR two pills instead of one and he feels relief this way, then it is better for that patient to follow what he believes is best suited to him. Ultimately, it is the relief to a patient that takes precedence over technicalities which apply to most patients; exceptions should be embraced too!

Q5. I have a sample of potentised Thyronorm 100 mcg, which was made for an earlier patient. one of my new patients is taking Thyronorm 25 mcg and another Eltroxin 50 mcg. Do I have to potentise Thyronorm 25 mcg & Eltroxin 50 mcg separately for these patients or can I make a nosode* from my existing sample?
A. So long as a patient is taking Thyronorm, (any strength 25, 50 or 100 mcg), we only need to potentise Thyronorm once and save it in dilution to be used as a sample for any future patient taking Thyronorm. Now, though we appreciate that the active ingredient in Thyronorm and Eltroxin is the same viz, Levothyroxine but since these are manufactured by different companies, other constituents might differ. So it is recommended that we make a different potentised sample from Eltroxin in a dropper bottle with label ‘Eltroxin and the date’. However, a practical alternative solution would be to store two tablets separately, Thyronorm and Eltroxin (any strength) to be used for future. *the term ‘nosode’ is used when we potentise a morbid matter eg, urine, pus, or saliva etc.

Q6. I became an AVP in 2012. In my 108CC box, I need to replace 22 dropper bottles since their rubber teats have become soft and sticky due to excessive use at Vibrionics camps. Is it possible to obtain just the bottles and if so, how?
A. The only perishable part of a dropper bottle* is the rubber teat which can be procured by an active practitioner who is uploading his seva reports on the practitioners’ website every month. You should send your requirements to [email protected] and the appropriate team would guide you further. Normally, you are expected to collect any such supplies from our head office in Puttaparthi, whenever you visit.
*In this case, you do not need to get the complete bottle as the teat alone is separately available.
