Coriandrum Proving
Coriander/Cilantro

Introduction
I decided to prove Coriander because it was such a common spice and condiment and a member of
Umbelliferae family. I had also seen some allergies to this herb in both myself and other patients.
Background
Native to the Mediterranean basin, India and Western Asia, Coriander is one
of the world’s oldest spices, cultivated in Egypt 3,500 years ago and found
in the tomb of Tutankhamun, built in 1350 B.C. In the Jewish tradition
coriander is one of the bitter herbs taken at the Feast of Passover,
symbolizing the flight from captivity in Egypt. The Greeks and Romans
similarly carried on with the popularity of the herb in the ancient world.
All parts of this strongly aromatic plant have found both culinary and
medicinal uses. The odor of the plant is striking: It is completely pervaded
by a distinctive smell of bed bugs. Indeed the name of the plant comes from
the Greek word koris (bug). Fortunately this odor departs from the seeds on
drying and they become pleasantly aromatic and spicy.
Today, Coriander is one of the most heavily used herbs in the world. Though
the main global producers of the plant are India and Morocco, it is also
Coriandrum Proving

extremely popular in the cuisine of Latin America, the Middle East, China
and Thailand. The large lower leaves are familiar as Cilantro (or chinese
parsley) and can be used like parsley.
Coriander was official in the United States Pharmacopoeia from 1820, right
up to 1985, when progress intervened. Its use as a tonic digestive tea is
very old, and it was already used as an aphrodisiac in ancient Egypt. It has
been a very common ingredient in herbal mixtures, often as a flavoring or
adjuvant to hide the taste of other ingredients.
Plant
Coriander is an annual herb with a strongly aromatic or fetid odor that can
grow to 3 feet on a thin and spindly stem. The stem rises erectly, is
furrowed, but unlike many Umbelliferae, is solid not hollow. The leaves are
one or two pinnate and show a strong metamorphosis from top to bottom, with
the lower leaves rounded and lobed and the upper finely divided. The flower
umbels are white or pinkish appearing all summer, with the outer flowers
noticeably larger than the central ones. The hard, dry fruits are small,
round and beige to red-brownish with prominent ribs. They have a musky,
lemon scent when dried and are rich in essential oil, coriandrol. The plant
is found in waste places.
Culinary Use
Cilantro leaves are put in salads, soups and sauces and are a main
ingredient in Mexican salsa. Even the stem is used in soups and bean
dishes. The root is added to curries and can also be used as a condiment or
as a garlic substitute. Conversely, in a kind of homeopathic twist,
coriander can also be used to neutralize garlic on the breath.

The ground coriander seed is used to flavor seafoods, fish, cold meats,
eggs, cheese and potatoes, and ratatouille. It is part of curries, gram
masala, chutneys, pickles and marinades and even used as a table spice in
the Middle East. In baked goods coriander seed traditionally flavors
cookies, cakes and gingerbread. Formerly these seeds were sugared and sold
by themselves as candy comfits. Coriander is also an ingredient in liqueurs
like gin and Chartreuse and was formerly added as a flavoring for weak
beers. It is found in some cocoas and is commonly used as a tea, alone or in
combination with other herbs. Meanwhile, the essential oil is used in
perfumes, soaps, incense and flavoring for medicines and cosmetics,
including toothpaste.

and my head kind of heavy. I went to another store and thought I had lost something, but hadn't...the
clerk found it for me.(NS)
1 00:1000 Afraid that I will make a foolish mistake that could hurt someone.
1 00:1230 I went to the bank and wrote on my check for cash cah, forgetting the is. Feel like I should
not be operating heavy machinery, ie. my car. (NS)
1 01:1200 wrote a check wrong again today.
1 01:1800 Went to get into my car and thought it belonged to someone else and started to walk away
until my son confirmed it was our car. My son’s (he’s 14) observation was, Mom, you’re getting
confused when you have to concentrate.
1 10:1900 speaking to Gary and said something with words completely out of order...all of the words

1 05:1700 cooking in kitchen, went to put cheese board (appetizer) together and realized that I was
wearing an oven mitt. I’d forgotten to take the potatoes out of the oven which was why I had on oven
mit. Mind is either moving very quickly or my short term memory is shot.
1 10:1000 went upstairs to get something came right back down forgetting the reason I went up there.
Sitting with a friend at computer working on remedy and forgot whether I had looked up the remedy or
not.

I needed.
1 43:XXXX Lost several things...went to store with out checkbook, post office forgot mail, etc.
3 06:1600 Am rewriting some notes and realize that I don't seem to be able to spell at all. I'm usually a

feel sure of the spelling. (NS)
3 07:1510 I see a sign for two towns that I have known for years. The sign reads, "Allston-Brighton". I
read it out loud to myself, "Allton-Blighton". Knowing that sounds wrong, I try out loud again and
again, "Allton-Blighton". After three wrong pronunciations, I am finally able to say it correctly. Later
in the proving this happens several times only with different words in different situations.(NS)
3 08:1230 Am confused about the combination on the lock of my locker which I have had for years.
Takes me a few minutes to figure it out. (NS)
7 04:0400 Dream that I was at a religious community run by an orthodox

Finally I found my car and left.
8 04:XXXX I pulled into a gas station and pulled up with wrong side of the car towards the pump. it is
very unusual for me to make this kind of spatial mistake. When the attendant pointed it out I felt
confused and disoriented. I wondered if I had been making goofy mistakes all day.
8 05:2000 Made a wrong turn on a well known street. Also took a wrong turn in a building that is very
familiar and it took me a moment to realize my
mistake, a great sense of confusion.
Sexual dreams
1 03:0930 ...Another dream; I was younger and had a boyfriend who lived across the street and I went
over to see him for a kiss . He kissed me
2 05:0900 Sexual dreams (OS): seduced by an x-lover, it was wonderful!
Felt fine all day.
3 09:0700 Have this bizarre semi-erotic dream. I'm in this apartment with these two women, only they
don't know I'm there, I think I'm behind the couch or something. They are two women that I have
known remotely in my past. There's a narrator reading as if it's a film. One woman is trying to
seduce the other, I kind of figure they're both into it. The narrator is talking about her breast and
describing it in a very erotic way. I'm very interested. The narrator comments enticingly on one
woman's breast being very swollen because she has gained weight. When I realize that one woman is
not interested in gay sex I hang out in the apartment that day waiting for them to return and have a
plan to aggressively seduce the interested woman. (NS)
3 14:0800 In the third dream I had last night, my host in real life, who is very good looking but much
younger and who I don't actually feel attracted to in real life, wants to seduce me and he is kissing me
and trying to take off my shirt. (NS).
3 22:0800 Had a dream that I had a penis and a close female friend of mine also had a penis and we are
having sex face to face. Wake up pondering the strangeness of the dreams and the logistics of such a

sexual act.
Dreams of Pregnancy
1 17:XXXX Had a dream that I was pregnant. It was nice. That’s all I remember about it.
3 04:0700 Had another dream last night that I was pregnant. Actually, because of my period being late
before, this possiblity had been in my mind. In the dream, I went in for a pregnancy test but the way
they performed the test was somehow using sperm and they made a mistake and made me pregnant
with the sperm. I never thought I could stop a pregnancy but in the dream I thought I had to because I
didn't know whose sperm it was. I decided to abort the baby. (NS)
Dreams about evil, being unsafe
3 14:0800 Second dream was that my body was suspended in the air and was filled with light and
energy. In the dream I thought it was my body's way of healing itself but later in the dream wondered if
it was instead an evil power possessing me. (NS).
3 20:0800 Had a dream last night that I walk into a room to find two young children who are silent and
I see that one is mostly naked and her clothes are torn and her body is bloody and the horror of the
realization that she has been raped chills me. (NS).
3 21:0800 Had a dream last night. there was a wedding going on downstairs in the house that I am in.
I go upstairs and observe an open window with feet flying out the window. Just at that moment I
realize that it is a young adolescent boy who is trying to commit suicide. I see a figure grab his feet at
the last second to save the boy. The figure looks evil, he is wearing a white mask with blue carved
eyes that jut out from the mask and he looks very scary but he has saved the boy. After he pulls the
boy in, the dream shoots like a movie to a garage door outside on the ground level. I can see a large
"photo-montage", superimposed on the garage door, a black and white picture of a young girl, maybe
7 or 8, very pretty, innocent looking with dark curls (she is alive as if she is a movie clip) and I feel a
very deep terror at the realization in the dream that she is the evil force who tried to lure out the boy to
kill himself. I wake up very very frightened. Normally I often hear music which seems very beautiful,
like all the molecules of the world that are charged. When I awake the volume has increased tenfold on
this music and it is clamoring in my ears and I fell a cold horror that this music could be nothing at all,
have no spiritual connection at all. I am very upset by the whole experience. In retrospect, the dream
for me showed that what seems evil can be good and what seems good can be evil. (NS).
8 29:0700 dream: I am walking on a campus towards the hospital. For some reason I am not
authorized to enter, but decide to anyway. I do not have any sinister purpose, I just want to enter, I
think I am in the role of a medical student. As I enter I see the Dean, or some such authority figure. I
know he could throw me out if he notices I am an unauthorized person, but I adopt an air of
confidence, like I belong there, and just walk past him successfully. I enter the bathroom and this is
where the horrific part starts. There are three stalls and in each stall are women with either shit, or
blood, or a mixture of the two smeared all over them, reddish-brown color, very vivid. it is like a
disaster scene. And all I wanted to do was use the toilet. I feel repulsed and horrified, but also wonder
what needs to be done to help. Then I woke up. I felt really grossed out. it took me an hour to get back
to sleep
8 43:0600 dream: a very strange dream: Somehow I become part of a strange plot. I receive some
Coriandrum Proving

instructions about putting some liquid into a muffin and putting in a certain place where someone will
pick it up. If I don’t comply, something bad will happen to me. I am finding a syringe to put on the
liquid on the muffin, and doing the required questionnaire/paperwork. Other doctors and nurses try to
see what I am doing, but I conceal it. Later on I am instructed by cell phone to walk in a certain area
holding a box with some of the equipment. I am picked up by a station wagon with a number of black
people inside. Some women I know see me getting into the car and wonder what I am doing. Inside is
the man who ate the muffin. He has been told he took an extract of some sort that will promote health
and well being, but what he has really taken is the AIDS virus. The people in the car are going to be
filming a documentary of his downfall, and he thinks he will be filmed becoming more healthy. I ask
the bad guys how long the documentary will take to make and they say about 5 years. I know the man
will die in 5 years.
feeling: pissed off at the bad guys and powerless to do anything about their evil plot. Feeling of being
trapped into someone else’s plot and being out of control.
8 01:0600 Dream about being in a freight elevator in a basement and sense of not being quite safe.
8 27:0800 Dream about being in an area in the inner city. Look across the
street and see a man who is a monk of some sort. his costume or habit is
made of some sort of brush or grass which makes him look like broom with a
head on top, almost like a cartoon character. He is also moving with a type of sweeping motion. He
appears very angry and agitated. He is helping to evacuate men from a nursing home or something
perhaps because of terrorist threats. The whole situation feels dangerous and unsafe
8 30:0700 Dream that I am making a phone call but instead of reaching the person I m calling I reach
some men who are part of the phone police. My call got routed to them because the person I'm calling
has a large outstanding phone bill and they are trying to track her down (in reality, one of my patients
has such a bill). Suddenly I'm standing in front of these two men who look like FBI types, black suit,
very straight. A bird flies overhead and shits on one of the men's heads, the shit looks like a thin garden
slug. I think to myself, "yeah, all right!" The bird is about to circle around and drop another turd on
the other man’s head but I wake up.
8 03XXXX Dream of a war scene of spy scene. I am in the ocean and there are ships and planes
around. I am a soldier or spy and I 'm being shot at. I have some equipment in the water with me to
help me stay safe and I keep losing it and floating away.
My feeling is defiant. I won't let the bastards get me.
Ancient times, far away places, place or origin, nostalgia
3 03:0700 Had a dream last night about a neighborhood I used to live in in Boston 17 years ago. I have
never dreamed about this neighborhood. I am in a local cafe and I realize that Asians, mostly Chinese
and Taiwanese have become a major force in the neighborhood. This is very interesting to me in the
dream as I have lived in both those countries in real life. (NS)
3 23:0800 Had a dream last night that I was with a lot of people in a kind of an ancient enlosed stone

child cries, "fire, fire"! I go out to look and there is, indeed, a wall of liquid fire, maybe lava? slowly
moving towards us. As the city is enclosed, we have nowhere to run to and I realize that we will all
die within ten minutes. I am not afraid to die in the dream. (NS).
3 24:0800 Had a dream last night that I was a woman in a very ancient time and I have a male child
between 6 months and a year that I am carrying closely. I feel a deep loving bond to the child. The
child has a goatee which I do not find strange in the dream. We are being led away to safety by some
type of man. He has long white robes and I'm not sure if he is a very wise, kind real man or if he is a
kind of spirit. Regardless, he is our protector. Later, my friend tells me that in ancient Egypt, they did
apply stick-on goatees to male children (infants)? I did not verify this through research but found it
very interesting. The feeling state in the dream is about the deep connected feeling I have to the child.
(NS).
4 01:XXXX Dream: About building houses on a hill. It was a foreign land. Looked like China.
Houses were on a hill. I felt very confident.
4 02:XXXX Dream about a foreign country.
6 01:XXXX Dream: My mom was being interviewed on radio in India about what it means to a mom
when her daughter moves to a far-away place. I could listen to her from my home in the U.S. I was so
glad to hear mom’s voice, even though little painful. I definitely am missing mom. RS
6 01:XXXX Feelings of missing family and wanting to connect with them.
6 05:XXXX Dreams of sister visiting and sister-in-law visiting. Dreams of India
6 06:XXXX Dreams: Best friend in India is teaching me how to sew. She has made these two beautiful
gowns and I notice how beautiful they are.
6 11:XXXX Dream the whole family has gone to India. I am nauseated at the thought of air travel and I
have to leave to go somewhere by air again and I am telling my mom that I don't want to go as I am
crying. My mom is very understanding and is saying everything will be okay, don't worry and don't
cry".
8 53:0700 dream: I am in India to attend a homeopathic seminar. A well known homeopath is there,
he will probably be leading the seminar. We are all outside, the sun is shining, the colors are bright,
many people are milling about, but I am not interacting with them. I step inside an arcade-like area to
do some shopping. I need to go to the toilet but there is an extremely long line waiting to get in. I feel
frustrated by that.
Dreams of food
8 17:1600 dream: I am at some type of gathering, a sort of convention of hippie-type people, kind of
like Woodstock, but not quite. I am wandering about trying to decide which activities to do, what and
where to eat. At the end of the dream I am choosing food from a sort of smorgasbord, I am very
hungry. (somewhat of a typical dream for me, except for the part about the food)
8 17:1600 dream fragment: I buy a piece of cake and other foods at a cafeteria line, but someone else
takes my piece of cake. When I find her she has already eaten it and is sitting there with the empty bag.
I say I bet it was good, wasn’t it? The cafeteria worker tries to get me to take another kind of cake, but
Coriandrum Proving
file:///D|/kris/lum/Coriandrum_Proving.htm (13 of 25) [2/14/2000 9:58:56 AM]
I refuse and ask for my money back.
8 28:0800 dream fragment: in an ice cream parlor, the owner of the parlor is trying to decide what ice
cream flavors to carry, how to furnish the place.
8 40:0600 dream: I am in a cafe. I sit at a table and someone I know is next to me. She orders up
different kinds of breads and pastries and she tries to get me to eat portions. The owner/chef is the actor
Samuel Jackson, he is across the room behind the counter. He talks to me across the noisy room, I tell
him some my sister is coming into town soon and then I will be leaving. There is lots of food in this
dream, lots of food I can see.
8 44:0700 dream: I come into a place which is like a combination, gallery- museum-antique shop, a big
barn-like loft or attic (upstairs, the stairs are on the outside of the building). There are many objects on
display, things look old and valuable. All the objects are made of dark chocolate. They look like
polished ebony. I am in the shop starting to learn how to make the special chocolate objects. There is
a very specialized technique involved which must be learned, sort of like an apprenticeship. .
Concealment or deception
6 03XXXX Dream of being in a store and see a new lipstick on the shelf and put it into my purse with
the intention if I want to pay for it I will at the check out. At the line a woman tells me to go to the
office to get my purse checked and I decide to wait in the express line and pay for it before I go to the
office to get the purse checked. Quite a bit of time has passed and still the line is not moving. I feel
impatient. I ask the people who are ahead of me and they say "Oh the line really starts over there." I
want to somehow duck the people but do not want to be too obnoxious. I am also aware that I need to
go in that office. I am feeling that maybe I can tell them that I put it (lipstick) in my purse but I was
going to pay for it at the checkout. I want to make sure that my story is convincing enough.
6 06XXXX Start diet then cheat by eating mango cheesecake. Feel no remorse. Husband comes
home and I ask him "What did you do?" (as if he was the one who committed some crime or done
something when it was me who cheated and ate the cake).
7 02:0400 Dreamt I was a dentist. I was about to work on someone's teeth
and then I told him I wasn't really a dentist and didn't know what I was doing. He said "OK" and left.
Feelings of disinhibition, exposure
6 10:XXXX Dream I am at work and I have to go to the bathroom and get up to wipe myself and see
that my client can see through and is looking at my hairy genital area. I am more surprised than
ashamed. A little embarrassed I go behind the wall.
8 03:2300 Last night I had to scratch my crotch and I just did it even though I was in a public place and
someone could have seen me. I was almost amused at the idea of someone seeing me and did not have
the usual sense of modesty.
