Let us analyze one of well-known fears…

Fear of doing a MRI scan…Fear of knowing results of the scan…With great fear we go through it…
What’s the mental state? A question to ask…Also another question…do we need to have these fears? Nope. As the fear brings in to our lives what we fear.
We may avoid the situation altogether. How? By letting others decide for us. Also, we will go from one doctor to another. Thus, taking time to decide and postponing the decision.
How did we differentiate as each one of us act/react in a different way? According to Edward Bach we react in 38 different ways. And each of those reactions can be handled by 38 different flower remedies.
What are the possibilities of human mind? How we can we extend ourselves when there is a problem as problems are nothing but opportunities. We can do so with help of flowers. Each of the flowers has a different dimension and they help us grow in that dimension.
We lead our lives through mind only. Let us say tomorrow we have to pay money. Either we might be worried or we will run away from the situation or we will do nothing about it. If we watch the mind, then we can bring anything under our control. The flowers help us to do that.
First we become fearful. I am afraid of diagnostics results. This fear is of specific nature. When the fear is specific then we have to prescribe Mimulus.
If you know what you are afraid of then you have to prescribe Mimulus. For example: fear of meeting your boss, afraid to go to school and other such specific fears.
Let us say we are postponing a meeting somebody. What’s the pre-dominant thought/feeling that forced us to postpone? Then that feeling has to be addressed first. What’s the predominant feeling out of scale of 10? Whichever feeling has the highest score is the feeling to be addressed.
How do we understand the mental state of others? Emotions of people can be read by observing the faces. But not their thoughts as they are subtler. That’s why words are important as they reflect the thoughts. Listen to the words that come out of the person. They indicate the mental state they are in. You make think that he has been speaking those words consciously. Please understand scientists have found the words we speak come from our subconscious minds. Don’t analyze like a therapist. Bach flower therapist is not an analyst.
Don’t probe the words coming out of the mouth. Allow the person to speak. If she repeats a word then that should indicate the flower remedy to be prescribed.
I have to execute a task. I have not started it yet. Then the doubt comes whether I can complete it or not. Also the thought whether I have committed to the task unnecessarily or not enters the mind.
If such doubts come before starting a task then it is Hornbeam. While starting work he will be worried whether he can complete. If he starts he will be able to finish.
Gets Monday morning blues
Where Mimulus can be prescribed?
  • When opposite person has to agree. Let us say the house owner is demanding 15000 rupees, though we think 13,000 will be an ideal rent. Chant Mimulus as well as take Mimulus pills. The house owner will agree for our terms. Another example, the auto rickshaw driver has to accept our rate – which is supposed to be reasonable of course then chant Mimulus.
  • Fear of cockroaches, insects etc.
  • Mimulus person by nature is a shy person. The young kid a 4 year old. Will not come out of its bed room, when there is a guest in your house. Fear of strangers or shyness towards strangers indicates Mimulus.
  • If a movement causes pain or not able to move. In the area of pain place your hands and chant Mimulus. The pain will vanish for sure. Take a bottle of water, close the lid of it with your right hand and chant Mimulus. The bottle of water will be Mimulus charged. Give the water to the patient.
Unspecific fear – as there is no reason for it. Also they make a sudden appearance.
A patient says for example, I don’t why I am fearful. I won’t enter the room as I suspect there is a ghost in that room. Whenever somebody speaks of ghost then prescribe Aspen. Fear of death – its predominant during the last stages of dying. When there is an attachment towards something or some person, then that fear will not go. Fear of future: I don’t why I am worried about the future. Nightmares indicate Aspen. The child will cry after waking up and they can’t give a reason. Prescribe Aspen, the child will sleep well.
Naran’s student Anupama goes to a movie. She noticed a child started crying as soon as he enters the theatre. Why because it’s dark inside. Anupama chanted Aspen and within few minutes the child became quiet.
Fear and concern about a person’s welfare means Red Chestnut. 
For example the school van has not appeared yet and the mother starts worrying about the child’s welfare imagining various things. Or you hear the news that a person close to you is hospitalized. Immediately you feel worried and don’t know what to do. Fear of that person death will come in a visual form. Red Chestnut will release it. Along with that chant Rescue Remedy as well. Your terror and panic will be released. The mind will become calm. You will know what to do and what actions to initiate.
You can be sure that the doctors have given up when they say the patient is under observation and they don’t know what else to do. Start chanting Rescue Remedy, Red Chestnut and Sweet Chestnut will help when doctors say that there is nothing in their hands and only god can save. Sweet Chestnut is sheer divine grace.
Another technique that can be adopted when people are admitted in an ICU is by writing the name of the person, put a circle around the name, write Rescue Remedy around it, draw another over the remedy name and then keep the paper under the pillow of the patient. Be sure he will come out of ICU soon.
Terror and panic will strikes us if we find a bomb in the class and all of us we will run away from the class. An insect would have bitten us. If we believe it is snake, we will die out of fear.
Constant and consistent is the form of anxiety. An expression would be I am continuously coughing. Or last three days my cough is non-stop. This is an expression of White Chestnut.  
Periodicity indicates White Chestnut, for example, every time I wake up in the morning I cough for a while.
Until midnight I was sleeping well. I got up and started worrying about something and I couldn’t sleep afterwards as thoughts keep occupying my mind indicates White Chestnut. For sleepless problem White Chestnut will be a problem as we are constantly thinking we are not sleeping
If a disease appears at a specific time, for example you get wheezing exactly at 5 AM.
If the same symptoms persist: White Chestnut.


You are gasping for breath. Put ten pills of Rescue Remedy in water and after every 2 to 3 minutes sip the water.
When I need Rescue Remedy? I have no control of the situation and it becomes unbearable. In the kitchen, by mistake you have cut your fingers. The bleeding is not stopping. Apply Rescue Remedy drops on the fingers, the bleeding will stop.
Next to Naran’s house a couple were cooking Poori and selling them. When Naran was walking towards the barber’s shop he noticed the husband was showing signs of pain as the hot oil used for cooking have spilled over his hand. Naran gave him Rescue Remedy. When Naran came from the barber shop after one hour, he noticed the husband has started doing his cooking business without any indications of burning episode.
If there is an Accident our nature is to watch it from distance. Let us accept our nature. Chant Rescue Remedy for the people involved in the accident. May be call the animal spirit of Wolf (means help). The concerned people will get help immediately. The ambulance might come on time.
I should not have done like or may be I should not have thought like that. Just thinking about the past – for example homesickness – after you move to a hostel or newly married girls having shifted a new home. After fighting with somebody, we are regretting that we should not have done like and could have handled the situation positively.
There is a thin line of difference between guilt (Pine) and regretting the past (Honeysuckle). So in general Honeysuckle and Pine will go together.
Criticizing, finding fault, intolerant and always thinks he is right.
You are a stupid…It’s always because of your father I am in trouble…and so on. When we label a person like that, then Beech is the remedy.
You criticize your children saying that they don’t leave stuff in the right place. You believe every thing has a place and you are not happy if it is not followed and you criticize concerned person.
You do not understand other’s feelings…
When there is irritation in the stomach then Beech and Willow are the remedies. For irritation on Urinary organs add Cherry Plum to the combination.
When we say that others don’t understand the value of their relationship, then we are in the blaming mode.
We think others don’t understand our feelings. It means then means they too don’t understand others feelings. Being a poor communicator – we are not able to communicate in such a way as to make them understand. If you take Beech then he will understand you as we will know how to talk to them. The basic problem here is communication problem. Visit part two of the class-room lecture
 
 
 

 

Naran's 27th December 2008 class-room lecture continued..
 
No body likes a person who has a controlling nature. But Chicory will do it by manipulating others…
”How much I have taken care of you…but nobody takes care of me!”
Chicory will point to others ingratitude…”I have sponsored his studies, he doesn’t even bother to tell me, he has passed his graduation!”
Typically, widow mothers tend to be possessive of their son. They may not allow or interfere in their son’s relationship with his wife.
A Chicory wife would say, “My husband belongs only to me and nobody else”.
If the child says, “please press my head,” when he has fever, you give Chicory to the child, the fever will disappear, as Chicory always needs a company
A Chicory person will be interfering and demanding.
Chicory is so stingy, when he has to give money, he will always show unpleasant face while returning the money. The money received like this will always hold negative energy. So chant Chicory before collecting money from them.
Willow puts the blame on others. 99% of the population is a Willow type of personality. For example, “Before leaving for the interview, I saw you in the morning and so I couldn’t get through it” and “Why did you leave the chair in the hall? I got my feet knocked because of that”.
For each and every problem of ours, we find others as the reason.
Sudden aversion to life is Willow…”I feel like running away from home”.
Husband says “Did you find my watch?” She says “It will be where you have left” and period. When you snub somebody without any feeling to talk to somebody, then it’s an indication of Willow. This happens especially during monthly periods. The child throws Marie biscuits that were offered by you. Give the child Willow. It will eat those biscuits.
An example: “After my father’s death I am averse to life. I want to come out of it”. Chicory: suffering from love pangs, White Chestnut: not able to come out of that energy field and I would like to come out of that state, Willow: sudden aversion to life.


I am in the middle of some work. My wife starts a conversation. Neither I feel like talking to my wife nor can I tell her to stop talking. Fear – not able to say what’s in your mind is Centaury.
Why, as I am worried if say my opinion, others will mistake me, for example, not able to say no to one’s boss.
Centaury is a doormat, though he will have anger – Willow. Behind every Centaury we will have Willow. Therefore when you take Centaury it will help you to say no, but the anger within you will persist. So in addition Willow is required.
If you are Centaury person then you will have dominating persons around you.
You have finished your day at 6 pm and ready to leave for home, as you have planned to go out with your wife. But the boss asks you to do some job and wants it to be completed by 7 pm. When you finish the job it’s 8 pm. I am in Centaury state, when I couldn’t refuse to do the job.
My wife is ready by 5 pm. She is eagerly waiting for me. At the bus station, the fruit vendor says he doesn’t have any change and so refuse to sell the fruits to me. I couldn’t to do anything about it.
I reached home. There were no lights. I could sense my Wife is upset. She sulks and makes no attempts to communicate to me. She doesn’t offer a cup of coffee as a norm. I don’t try to figure out whether she is right or wrong. I will burst out. May be she offers coffee and but I threw the cup away. Such misplaced anger denotes Cherry Plum state.
Jealousy and envy marks a Holly person…Myself and my friend are toppers. He has got an interview call, while I am not. I feel jealousy, envy and anger towards him for no reason of him – Holly.
Chicory will become Holly eventually. Chicory is a possessive person and therefore they will become jealous and suspicious. If the husband comes late she will question him, where he had been all these time – Holly. So both chicory and Holly is required here.
He is an Aggressive person. A drinking husband beats his wife
Vine gets angry and become physically violent. Terrorists are Vine natured. A military government indicates Vine. “You have to do what I tell you to do.”
A lawyer opposes the government decision to convert a residential area as a state government’s office. He was threatened about the welfare of his son and daughter. The threatening person is in a state of vine. He was prescribed Rock water, Chestnut Bud and Vine (as a projection we bring in people of our nature). No rowdy could touch him.
Scleranthus, Wild oat and Cerato are indecisive people.
There is confusion between two options – “whether to leave the job or not. I am confused between Vanaja and Girija” – whom should I choose as my bride, denotes a Scleranthus mental state.
Scleranthus: postpones doing things as he is indecisive…”I have lot of time to complete the job, so I will do it later.”
Children waiting to complete their mid-term holiday assignment saying they have 10 more days to finish…will finish it just the night before school starts…this happens after every holiday term.
There is enough time to pay the telephone bill. On the last day when you go to the payment booth, you find 100 people like you waiting in the queue. You become impatient then.
He is an 11th hr specialist. Will get up late, will sleep late.
Positive Scleranthus will do things on time. So for studying children Scleranthus is a good remedy. Scleranthus is ideal for vomiting and motion sickness.
He is a person who is leading a aimless life doing unimportant things in unimportant times giving an impression he doesn’t do anything of value.
As we are unable to decide, whether to leave the job or not we tend to seek the opinion of others.
Doctor can make a mistake. Diagnosis has to be correct. Prescribe cerato and pray to Cerato to stay in the energy field of the doctor. He will give an appropriate medication.
An example: A child was suffering from itching at a particular time of the day. The father of the child has gone to many doctors, who couldn’t figure out the problem. The doctors couldn’t find the solution: Cerato (as they couldn’t find a solution for 4 years and Cerato will take you to the right person),( we feel guilty about it: Pine and White Chestnut: (as the itching happens at particular time). The final combination is Cerato + Rescue Remedy + Crab Apple + White Chestnut + Walnut (Rescue Remedy when it happens). You can put the pills in the water and then the water can applied on the wound.)
There is a problem and we have taken all the 38 flowers – except for Wild Oat. Then by taking Wild Oat, we can figure out what state we are in.
A Wild Oat person is in cross roads. He is confused whether he consults others or not and seems to go nowhere…”I am not happy in all the five jobs I have worked so far. I do not know what should I do?”
Wild Oat is the height of confusion. After the Bach Flowers class, when you don’t know what remedy to prescribe for our life situation. Every flower seems to be appropriate to us and when you are eager to mix all the 38 and take the mixture take wild oat.
What is this life all about? Why should we slog like this? How long can we continue like this? Such sudden dissatisfactions in life: Wild Oat.
To find the purpose of my life: Wild Oat. It answers the question, why I am born in this life. By following that mission, you will never feel bored and won’t get tired either.
We may become pessimistic about our life situation…”whatever I touch will not work…I am not lucky.”
He harbors negative thoughts like…I went to sell salt, it started raining…when I reach the temple, and they have closed the doors and so on.
He is not optimistic…yesterday the bank manager offered a business loan, today he gets transferred…he might complain the manager would have told me yesterday – becomes a Willow too in the process.
Gentian will show a sullen depressing face. An example: A student of Naran got a 10% reduction.  He chanted Clematis, Chicory, and Gentian. After a month, they gave him back his original salary.
We become Loquacious and we keep on talking about ourselves, we are in heather state.
Nobody likes such a person and therefore they won’t have any friend. He will be a lonely person.
If you want somebody to listen to us, then take Heather. Let us say we are invited to give a lecture. When the people over there are more interested in the after-lecture dinner than the lecture itself, Elm and Heather will make them to listen to your talks.
In the process of life we may become unadjusted to our life situations – Walnut.
I will not live with him… I need adjustment to a new place, people and environment…might hear please adjust a little…indicates Walnut as the remedy. So Walnut is used in Harmony Pack. It is a universal remedy
Must for any type of transitions…for puberty, marriage…for pregnancy – each of the nine months is a transition including after birth and the child needs Walnut too.
The child refuses to go to school when sent for the first time…Menopause…Retirement etc.
It also serves as a link breaker – I want to give up on my smoking, but I couldn’t. Walnut is the base remedy for any type of addiction behavior. For any unwanted relationships Walnut will help us to break from it.
Lack of self-confidence means we are in Larch state.
Larch will not feel jealous. Because he has no confidence, he will loose opportunities.
Let us say you are an upcoming bowler in Cricket. If you are asked to bowl to cricketers like Tendulkar. Automatically you will shy away from facing situation like that. This is the state of Larch.
We become forgetful – “ where did I leave my glasses, pen?”
To handle forgetfulness, lack of concentration, improve our memory and to be in the present – take Chestnut Bud.
A Chestnut Bud person is physically present, but mentally absent. He is an escapist. He doesn’t mind cheating others. He speaks lies and of dodging character.
If we are in that negative state, If we take Rock Water and Chestnut Bud, we will be able to collect our dues.
We may mask our feelings, laughing outside, but crying inside.
The fear to go home may be there because in Agrimony state, he does not want to be alone.
I am drinking so that I can forget all my problems.
Agrimony, Willow and Cherry Plum is the combination for high Blood Pressure.
I prefer no conflicts: Agrimony
In the middle of doing a job, we may feel inadequate. An elderly person – above 50 years of age, may say he is not able to put in the same amount of effort as in the past. A sudden crisis of confidence sets in. All of them indicate a state of Elm.
Elm is teacher’s remedy. Every day, every hour the class will flow differently. It will help the teacher to understand the subject better.
Children of these days are expected by parents to be a top ranker, learn some languages – French or Sanskrit or German, learn a musical instrument and do well in sports too. If a student takes Elm, he will understand his capacity and will leave out anything not required by him, but complete all the other stuff to completion.

 

Sometimes in life we will feel hopeless. Say a patient has lost all hopes of recovery: gorse is the remedy.
You go to visit the temple at Tirupati. They ask you to come after two days as there are no appointments. If you take Gorse you will get one sooner. Many cases where when the temple is closed, the priest has opened the doors for an exclusive Dharshan.
Want to get reserved seats during a season. You will get them thanks to Gorse. Of course it will work only when you feel hopeless.
When you surrender and feel only god alone can help…Sweet Chestnut will work. Say if you have been chanting Gorse, yet nothing seems to happen. Sweet Chestnut will work now.
Baby is due anytime. The doctors are about to do an emergency operation. The doctor says either mother can be saved or the child and not both. They ask the husband to sign. The husband will say I want my wife to be alive, while the mother will say my child is important. A dilemma results as both the solutions are not good.
Sweet Chestnut will help here, by saving both mother and child. Help is nearest when the need is greatest.
For Sweet Chestnut to work, we should be feeling nothing is in our hands.
If Sweet Chestnut doesn’t work, then what to do? We will loose all interests in life. Become apathetic and not interested in dressing and taking care of oneself. Inner motivation will be absent totally.
A Wild Rose person is not pessimistic. He is neither worried about good nor about bad thanks. His attitude is like “I don’t care whether Ram rules or Ravanan rules”. He has no interest in life.
He is an unfriendly person. Nobody approaches him as he thinks he is superior to others, while others are inferior to him.
We go to a wedding reception. We only know the bride and the groom. We don’t know anybody other than them How we are going to have company. Water Violet will find friends for you.
A wife of an ex-minister attends a celebrity wedding. The street is full of cars. Water Violet and Larch goes hand in hand. When we meet people in superior status (Water Violet) we will have low confidence (Larch). The lady chanted both Water Violet and Larch. She was approached by the popular actor Prabu. He took her to the reception hall and dropped her back to her car.
Water Violet person will be working in an unfriendly and lonely atmosphere. As a boss, he will deliberately ignore others. Will do the work himself as he thinks others can’t do the work as per his standards. So he won’t delegate work. But a leader should be able to delegate.
A Water Violet husband and wife won’t get a divorce but will live separately in the same house. Water Violet will make them come together.
A Water Violet person doesn’t understand the value of other people in his life.
You are in an unknown place and stranded. Don’t know whom to approach. Rock Water and Water Violet is the combination required. Or call wolf and tell the animal spirit beforehand, I will be there in such and such time, please be there and take care of me, and it will take care of you.
He can’t wait. He walks fast, talks fast and so on. If he has to wait for a doctor, he will not be able to sit in one place and will keep walking until he gets the appointment.
All of us do become impatient when we are held up in a traffic jam.
Impatiens remedy is good for type ‘A’ personality people – who is prone to heart attack, hyper tension
He will never eat on time and will eat quickly as well. He will not wait for others to finish the sentence, and will walk away from the listener before he finishes as though hot water has been poured on his feet.
Is sensitive to noise -- others chatting will look like noise to him.
Has fever and then even house light will be too much for the eyes.
This is only remedy taken out of water. Persons in Rock Water state will have a heart like rock. He has no heart. Will be very honest though and a man of principles. He is highly disciplined. Whereas a Beech person would like others to be disciplined a Rock Water will be a disciplined person himself. He will not ask others to be so and will be an exemplary person.
But principles are not everything about life. All rules and principles will stumble down in the spiritual world as divinity has its own rule.
We can’t tell the truth and get leave from a Rock Water manager. So we have to tell him a lie and get the leave sanctioned. He will not allow others to come near them.
An ex-minister of India is a classic example of Rock Water. His daughter is studying medicals. He was a health minister in the state government. Though his daughter is a topper, she failed in one of her papers. The staff told her that if the ministeri recommends then they will make her pass course. But the minister refused and she committed suicide.
When a reporter asked the minister what’s the message he wanted to give to the world. He replied that in spite of being a minister, he is an honest person.
Rock Water persons are not only hard on themselves but on others too.
The message from Rock Water is that we live only for love as we are born out of love and we shall make friends with help of love. Honesty has no value when there is no love?
But Rock Water persons are loveless people. They are known for their stubbornness. They will end up in pain in the knee due to their rigid in nature. In such cases, Rock Water, Walnut and Hornbeam is the remedy.
Cheater and the cheated are one and the same. The police and robbers live along in the same jail. So if you take Rock Water (jailer) + Chestnut Bud (thief) no body can cheat you.
Feeling that they are not beautiful, they can’t love themselves. They are self conscious and conscious about their appearance. Might think if they are one inch taller then they will be more attractive.
Always thinks about hygiene and cleanliness. They will drink only hot water, and that too mineral water. Additionally they will not like to use the toilet of other person. Also may think that sex is dirty.
Crab Apple is the base remedy for obsessive compulsive disorder. A mother does not give mother's milk to her baby, as she thinks she will loose her beauty otherwise.
If Crab Apple is taken then the beauty consciousness will be removed as it is a total physical and mental cleanser. For the same reason, it’s the base remedy for any type of skin disease like psoriasis.
You may add to beauty cream few drops of Crab Apple. For sun spots, Water Violet, Walnut, Crab Apple is the remedy. You may use virgin coconut oil as well.
As soon you get physical scar, if you take Rescue Remedy then the scar will not be permanent. On the other hand if you keep thinking about the scar, then Crab Apple is the remedy. Also apply virgin coconut oil and Crab Apple for stretch marks.
If you try to hide skin diseases, then take Crab Apple.
The message of Crab Apple is: develop inner beauty, don’t worry about what’s outside of you – the physical self, but worry about the mind which has to be a pure and crystal self.

He is a compulsive worker. If he starts the work he will not stop working and is a workaholic. He doesn’t know how to complete the work on time.
When you don’t know how to complete the work on time then take Oak. If it doesn’t seem to finish then take Oak and Hornbeam. If the work stretches like rubber and seems not to end then Oak is the remedy.
Oak is a hard worker and not a smart worker
Elm, Oak and Olive: after 50 years of age to strengthen the heart. Logic behind this prescription is: feeling of inadequacy as we are not able to do the work in the same way as we used to do when we were younger (Elm), gets exhausted even if we walk ten steps on the stair case (Olive) and as       heart is a compulsive worker as it can’t stop even for a minute (Oak). Take one dose a day.
Total physical and metal exhaustion
He is an extrovert, while a Water Violet is an introvert. He is over enthusiastic as well as his mind will not be quiet even for a minute. As he is mentally over active, he will get mental fatigue in the evening. Vervain will get tired mentally and therefore eventually he will go to Hornbeam state.
He can be termed as the tension party, planning and thinking too many things during same time.
What is the effect on us, if we take Vervain? Then we plan reasonable amount of action with no overdose. Body will not be put into too much stress. He will become active in the normal sense and will plan better as well.
If we are given 25 things to do, then we won’t be able to do anything at all. Neither our bodies will cooperate.
He is a day dreamer. This is a remedy for children as they day dream a lot. For elders who are heavily involved in buying lottery tickets and to those involved in gambling: Walnut, Clematis and Oak is the remedy.
Work only in mind and there is no coordination between mind and body.
For low blood pressure and coma (as body and mind is not functioning together)

For any trauma – mental or physical, especially when somebody close to us dies, it will not be possible to come out of the trauma easily. The mental trauma results in the heart in the form of a shock. Prescribe Star of Bethlehem for 7 days and then Chicory and White Chestnut to come out of attachment out of love.
Star of Bethlehem is greatest soother of pains and sorrows. If a surgical wound is not healed properly then Star of Bethlehem is the remedy, especially for diabetics patient.
Mustard  
Remedy for endogenous depression where the cause is not known, which is more or less a psychiatric disorder. Gentian is prescribed when the cause of the depression is known.

  • Over enthusiasm: marriage for my daughter, thinking about work to be tomorrow at office. In the process we get mental strain in the evening. The remedies prescribed are: Vervain, Scleranthus, White Chestnut, Walnut and Crab Apple.
  • Worry: Agrimony, White Chestnut, Walnut and Crab Apple is the base remedy
  • I sleep late and get up late: add Scleranthus to the base remedy.
  • Tomorrow what should I do: editing work at my newspaper office: Vervain
  • I got up in the middle of the night: administer base remedy
  • Nothing helps: Passi Flora mother tincture: then you will know the value of the sleep.
  • Jet lag: Just came from USA. Always sleeping in the afternoon: Scleranthus
We need divine grace to get married: Sweet Chestnut. No marriage should happen without this remedy.
  1. Before the bride groom comes to see the girl, Sweet Chestnut will help us to find whether the person is right or not. Put it in a glass of water and keep it in the house or drink water.
    • A Punjabi girl and a Punjabi guy from UK were on talking terms. Lots of money spent was spent for the calls made and internet usage. The marriage was initiated. The guy said his parents may not agree as they belong to different sub sect and so suggested to get married first and then inform his parents. The girl agreed for this arrangement and not her mother. Both the daughter and the mother took Sweet Chestnut. After few days a call came from the guy’s number. The person called was his wife. She told them that he is a cheater. He has cheated quite a few girls like this. As she couldn’t escape she is hanging around with him. Then the girl did some verification and Punjabi address that the guy had given was wrong. She was given Star of Bethlehem (for the mental shock after she figured out the truth) and Chicory – pangs of love and love failure.
  2. If you splash Beech and Walnut in the room – then there will be no demands and will adjust to each other requirements and needs. For example: Nikitha – a Reiki Teacher. In her friend’s house sprayed water that is mixed with Beech and Walnut on all walls. During the meeting, the girl started singing. Then the groom joined her and later everybody joined the girl. In the end they mentioned that somehow they feel that all of them belong to the same family.
  3. Scleranthus: to choose between Vanaja and Girija.
  4. Coral – for disparity in love. A teacher loved her own student, and she is older than him by few years. Both of them took Coral. After a month they agreed to stop, as they realized that their mental compatibility is not good enough for the marriage to survive.
  • Chanting the flower name means à we had surrendered to the flowers, as I don’t know what else do. So it works for the same reason.
  • We release the emotions and thoughts with help of flowers as otherwise whatever we think will happen.
  • Chanting works even if the concerned person doesn’t do. May be after seeing the results, next time when they face a similar situation they might say “your chanting has helped me last time. So please do this time too…”
  • There are no side effects, as see even chanting the flower works. They are like switch words and influence the subconscious mind. Though the pills are a medium through which the flowers do their work and they give a different sort of experience.
  • Somebody living in a different town and they are feeling homesick. You may do the following:
    • Chant Honey Suckle and it will work as their feelings are projection of ours. You are healed and they are then healed too. Also we are all one and the same and that’s why it is working – thus as a projection we bring people similar to or complement our nature.
    • Use the circle method. Take a piece of paper and write the name of the person within a circle. Around the circle write the name of the flower and draw a circle over it. If there are additional flowers, have a concentric circle for each of them. This distance healing method works as well.
    • Vomiting during pregnancy – Scleranthus. The daughter-law of a student of Naran lives in US. The lady followed the circle method and it healed the daughter-in-law. If you have trust and faith in Bach flowers, it will work wonders. Nature is ready too helps us in the form of flowers. This is one of the multiple ways to heal.
  • Heal people who are living with you.
    • Take a glass of water cover with right hand and chant the flower names. Give the water to them. It will work, even if the concerned person doesn’t believe in Bach Flower Therapies, as it is not a belief based therapy.
    • You may find no harmony in your family. Put 10 to 15 pills of Harmony pack in the common drinking water. The fight may disappear. Your family members might wonder how come the fight is not there anymore. Please note here, that no harmony within us has resulted in lack of harmony within the family. Of course, we don’t find the fault with us and only on others.
  • We take different avatars during the day – Beech avatar in the morning, Willow avatar in the afternoon and so on. At the most we take any of the 38 avatars identified by Edward Bach.
  • We invite people of a specific nature. Let us say that we are Centaury we might invite Chicory type bosses. It like a formula X-1 = Y+1, where X denotes Centaury and Y denotes manipulating boss. So when our Centaury nature changes, then the boss have to change too. That's how flower remedies work with us and others around us.
  • There are so many natural calamities happening in the world on a regular basis to heal them with intention: Sweet Chestnut + Wild rose + Chestnut bud 5 to 10 minutes. Or think about the nature or the world and chant. This is what we can give back to the world.
  • Bach Flower Remedies will work, though we can’t say it can work alone. It has to be complementary to other types of healing, as it’s not a Samaya Sanjeevani – a cure for all. Though it does one thing – it completes the healing process. Thus it doesn’t pre-suppose other healing options.
  • Remedy means help and not a cure. Through Bach flowers, you are helping the person. There are instances even one dosage has changed a person completely.
  • Each and every flower gives a unique experience. To gain that, do the following: take one flower remedy 3 times a day for 7 days, listen to the conversations that is happening around you, whom do we meet and happenings in our life.
  • Problem is in the mind
  • Healing is a process. Divinity cures if we have faith. Then we don’t need medicines as medicines are nothing but the tools of divinity.
  • The name Asthma has energy thanks to referring it and thinking about it for so many years. It is sustained in the body by mentioning the name frequently. Avoid if you can if you want to get ride of it.
  • Simplest remedy is the fastest remedy
  • Only when negatives are removed, spiritual growth happens automatically
