Homoeopathy
WHAT IS HOMEOPATHY? It is a medical system based on a single law of cure that existed for millions of years but it was for Dr. Hahnemann to have discovered and to have brought it to its practicability.
This basic principle has neither changed nor shall change in times to come. It is not based on hypothesis, supposition or speculation but is a true science of healing based on nature, man and experience. Giving an example, “onion” in its natural state causes tears, running of nose, sore throat but in homeopathic potency, interestingly it becomes cure for tears, running nose and sore throat. Nature has created cure in the dynamic portion of the same drug. Smell of petrol causes nausea to some in moving vehicles and so petroleum in its minutest dose becomes its cure. This is true in trillions and trillions of drugs and it is for us to prove each drug existing in nature.

. – Hence the definition of Homeopathic medicine is “A drug whose disease-producing effects have been ascertained on healthy people, experimentally or accidentally, and can cure similar conditions among the sick”. Nature has thrown challenges to mankind since time immemorial and its men who ‘boldly and proudly faced them. One of those who stands high among his pioneer colleagues is Dr. Samuel Hahnemann. The master lived from 1-55 to 1843. God gave him a long life of 88 years and nothing he proved has been disproved to date whether it is in medical science or in Chemistry. The system is free from side effects and hence can he have administered safely to children and to old people at home. Yet it is most effective as millions have been cured by it. The system of converting crude drugs into Homeopathic medicines is so wonderful that a particle of the costliest metal of worlds like Uranium or Platinum can be changed into an effective medicine for all mankind. No wonder then. that this becomes the answer to the suffering of millions of our brothers in the underdeveloped world. Homeopathy being a product of nature’s laws, there is a renewed interest due to the growing emphasis in the world in the environment and on naturalistic attitudes. There is hardly a society or a country that has not been touched by this system. The inherent advantages make it therapeutics of the future. which is bound to play an important role in the 21st century. Hence a bright role awaits for the students of Homeopathy.
