  5. Rajan SankaranAn Insight into Plants Vol. 2 OPIUM: Papaveraceae + cancer miasm Opium is mentioned in cancerous affections. The suffering of cancer in the last stages often produces intense pain and suffering. This is when morphine is used, the main active ingredient of Opium. We see the rubrics: Courageous ; Ailments from shock; Cheerfulness, gaiety, happiness ; Painlessness of complaints usually painful.

  6. Thus even in the face of such shock, pain and suffering, he remains cheerful, courageous, and acts as if he has no pain. He controls the pain and suffering, and acts as if he has no pain. This ability to take the pain and still remain under control is the theme of Opium. The situation of Opium is that of a soldier: going to war he needs to be bold, rash, courageous. He should not complain even though he sees people are going to attack him. In this situation he must keep control.

  7. In the Cancer miasm we see the attempt to make order out of chaos, to stretch oneself far beyond one's capabilities. Keeping control in the face of intense pain is an aspect of this. Therefore if we combine the feeling of Papaveraceae and cancer miasm, we have the proposed sensation: must be in control even in a situation of intense pain and violence.
