Know these facts about Homoeopathy :
What is Homoeopathy ? Homoeopathy is a medical system of treating diseases by drugs, given in minute doses, which would produce in a healthy person symptoms similar to those of the disease. What is the difference between Homoeopathy & Allopathy ? In Homoeopathy, those drugs are used which are proved in healthy human body in very minute dose and can produce symptoms similar to the disease condition for which it is being prescribed. More advanced pathological signs are not allowed to be produced in Drug proving. Those are noted from clinical experiences when the medicine has been prescribed for other symptoms & those advanced pathological signs are cured along with it. 'Allo' means 'dissimilar'. So Allopathy means where 'symptoms similarity' principle is not applied. Usually Allopathy term is used for the conventional medical system used as Govt. medical system in maximum countries, the so called Modern medicine. But it has limitation. It can be applied only if pathological findings are there. But millions of men and women has illness without any pathological advancement. The reason lies at the philosophy for the 'Cause of Disease'. Note : If any medicine is taken from Homoeopathic Pharmacy and used at random it will not act as Homoeopathic medicine. Homoeopathy is a principle: 'Similia Similibus Curentur' , means 'Like is cured by like'. If this medicine is not applied according to symptoms similarity principle then its not Homoeopathic. It is Allopathy (dissimilar) with medicine procured from homoeopathic pharmacy. And such allopathy is more harmful because here are no experimental statistics from authentic research, which database is present behind the MODERN MEDICINE ALLOPATHY. So Modern Medicine are comparetively more reliable than Allopathy (dissimilar prescription) with drugs from homoeopathic pharmacy. Such pseudo-homoeopathic practice is epidemic in India & all over the world. BEWARE OF IT. See 'Organon of Medicine' book by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann , aphorism no. 26 & its footnote to know more about HOMOEOPATHIC LAW OF NATURE (similia similibus curentur) The Philosophy of Cause of Disease : Human beings are not only a body. Without its life energy it is only a material. This energy is called 'Vital principle' in Homoeopathic Philosophy. And the derangement of this vital principle is called disease. Human body without vital principle is equivalant to a electric bulb without electricity current. As we can not see electricity but its manifestation can be seen, likewise we can not see the life energy but it is manifested in human's normal activity and healthy life. Disturbances in this energy level manifests as disease symptoms at first, then pathological advancement occurs by the time. A comprehensible easy example is the nausea after seeing a dirty place with foul smell. Here nothing has come inside the body as material. But the anti- peristalsis movement of GI tract occured. So at the earliest the life energy is deranged by another energy which is not suitable to it. Later gradually in next steps pathological sign are developed. Till these pathological signs are not appeared, Allopathy or Modern Medicine can not help the suffering patient. Here lies the difference in Philosophy of Cause of disease. Allopathy forgets that Human organism is a combination of Body & Soul ( life energy). They thinks that all is the concern of the body only. Once a pathogen ( bacteria, viruses, parasite) attacks the body then the disease starts. Then, why there are so many people is suffering from pain or other symptoms without any pathological findings ?? We live in the sea of air. And the air is full of pathogens. Why we are not always susceptible to them?! What are the basic principles of Homoeopathy ?
When and how it works ? When two dissimilar diseases meet in human organism the stronger replaces the other. Two dissimilar disease does not behave likewise. Then the stronger only suppress the weaker until its course is completed. (see Organon of Medicine,aphorisms 34-54). Now the actions of Homoeopathic medicine can be called Artificial controlled stronger disease with a very small material dose. So, it can replace the disease existing in the living human organism because it is stronger. Then this artificial disease force is also disappeared from the body because of its minute dose. And a healthy human organism continue its normal functions. [That is why, who tries to prove Homoeopathy wrong and takes a bottle full of medicine it does not manifests any symptoms. Because
What are the systems of human body covered by it ? Every system of human body is covered under one homoeopathic medicine prescribed. Whole body and mind is taken into consideration before prescribing once. What are the scopes of Homoeopathy ? It can cure any naturally developed disease within the limit of reversible pathology. Does not includes accidental or poisoning conditions or in cardio-respiratory emergencies. It can help the suffering persons without any pathological findings. Here the disease process has just started, its to earlier to develop pathology but still capable to produce pain or other unusual sensations. Number of such ailing persons is numerous in the world. What are needed to prescribe in Homoeopathy ? A complete case taking including patient's every unusual sensation (symptoms), disease signs from every system of the body & above all, 'the mind characteristics' and abnormal mental symptoms [because the Mind is the boss of a living Human] You will find a complete case taking format in a word/ doc file at the bottom of the Home Page of dranindya.weebly.com ] What are its limitation ? Homoeopathy can not help in truely Surgical Diseases (surgical diseases should not include warts, acute appendicitis, benign tumours and cysts), in congenital defects, in irreversible pathological conditions (cancers: advanced stages of carcinoma and sarcoma), poisoning, accidental emergency & in which conditions the death is imminant such as cardiac emergencies etc. Beware of these while using Homoeopathy : It is very easy to prescribe several drugs for several symptoms in allopathic fashion, though the medicines are used from homoeopathic pharmacy. Several corporate looking Homoeopathic therapy chain are attractive in their ADs and in online search result. They practice in this fashion. They have nothing related with homoeopathic principles & obviously not Homoeopathy. They are palliative and far less reliable than even Allopathy or Modern medicine. Polypharmacy or alternating drugs are not Homoeopathy.(see aphorism 272, Organon of Medicine by Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, Discoverer of Homoeopathy)
