The Banerji Protocols— Book Corrections

Don't miss these important edits to make to your copy!

Before we continue with the Getting Started with Homeopathy series, I have some important information to share with you. So grab your copy of The Banerji Protocols, A New Method of Treatment with Homeopathic Medicines by Prasanta Banerji and Pratip Banerji, and manually make the following corrections.

These corrections are based on the errors that exist in the hardcover copy that I own. (Copyright 2013 by Dr Pratip Banerji, reprinted 2019.) These corrections were passed down to me from my teacher who studied under the Banerjis, and who also, from what I understand, owns a copy of the original printing of the book. 

• Some of the corrections below are very minor. And I skipped altogether ones that don’t affect the readability; such as a quote not closed, a period skipped, spacing off, and ellipses (…) missing.

• A handful of the corrections are actually important to the medicine names and administration of the protocols.

• And one correction is VERY IMPORTANT:

Aconitum Napelles Q (Mother Tincture) — DO NOT USE- May be poisonous in gross form!

(Apparently, the Banerjis did not calculate this book would end up in the hands of laypeople worldwide. They were relying on their own pharmacies, in India, under their care and observation.)

Cross out the mother tincture in the book and note that instead we use Aconitum Napelles 200C.

See pgs. 101, 135 (in two places), and 139 in the book. Also refer to the corrections list below.

Go now and write in these important changes.

If you already bought Aconitum Q , discard it with care (like in a hole in the dirt) and do not use it for any purpose.

A few other notes about the book:

• Be sure to read the introductory section of The Banerji Protocols book, pages IX, X and XI. This important section will explain a lot of details. And if you have a question as you are looking at the protocols, go back and read these pages! (In fact, I recommend reading the entire book more than once.)

• The index at the back of the book leaves a lot to be desired when searching for what you need. Check out the BANERJI PROTOCOL INDEX I created with all the protocols listed by name and page, which you can use to easily search here.

• Anywhere they call for for 1000C potency, that is also known as 1M.

• Mother Tincture may be written as MT, Q, Ø, ϴ. The Banerjis use ϴ. (I use MT or Q for ease of typing.)

[More on this in the future, but a mother tincture is the plant in gross (herbal) tincture form, as yet undiluted.]

• Condurango may be found under Cundurango in Robin Murphy’s Nature’s Materia Medica. In case you are looking for more info about this medicine.

• Vitex Negundo Q is very hard to find. (See protocols on pgs. 60, 95, and 120.) This is the one place I am aware of that sells it (use the search bar): https://buythebanerjiprotocols.com/

• I do not have any corrections for the Additional Banerji Protocols book. (That doesn’t mean there aren’t any, just that I am not aware of any at this point.)

• If I come across future corrections, I will post them to this Substack so that everyone will be notified. Subscribe for free so you don’t miss any future notifications!
