Often when I talk about the ‘Homoeopathy Science’ in public, I hear people say that Homoeopathy is well established but the science behind it is not. For me Homoeopathy is a science and it is a science because it has a philosophy of it’s own. For this philosophy, is what makes us stand heads and shoulders above that crowd of palliators. In this philosophy we have everything that the others have been trying to find out for the past 2000 years. And still they are not ready to believe that somebody found the truth that they have been searching for, some 200 years back. What do we call it? Ignorance or ego!

Nearly 500 years back, man came face to face with the so-called modern science and then he started dumping the then prevalent philosophies. Five centuries of scientific progress later the most scientific men on earth (biologists, genetic engineers, anatomists, physiologists etc.) have realized that it is not possible to explain the life of an organism by breaking it’s body.

So now they are searching for a ‘scientific philosophy’ to fix the jigsaw puzzle of the human body that they have created. Yes! They are searching for the ‘holism’ that we have found two centuries ago. They have now realized that medicines given in large doses produce undesirable side effects. We have been preaching this for more than two centuries! They have now realized, through their costly scientific experiments, that lifestyle and atmosphere does affect a human being's health. Our ‘Organon’ stated this truth way back in 1810! Day after day they are finding the wrong bends that they have taken and yet I can do nothing but pity them, for they are trying to find some known truths. And what does all this prove? That, if not more, we are still moving two centuries ahead of any other system of medicine.

Let us come together and try to evolve a science which is not bound by any pseudo-scientific restrictions; a science which is free to grow with experience; a science which has a supporting philosophy of it’s own; a science that has got a human touch to it and this millennium will be ours!
